Uncovering systemic immunological modification by type 2 diabetes mellitus in periodontitis patients via single-cell RNA analysis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex metabolic disorder and leads to various complications including periodontitis (PD). Though bidirectional relationship of DM and PD has been reported, however, their immunological relationship remain poorly understood. This study aims to compare the immune response in patients with PD only and those with both PD and DM (PDDM), in order to expand our knowledge of the complicated connections between PD and DM. We collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from three distinct groups: 11 healthy control subjects, 10 patients with PD without DM, and 6 patients with PDDM. PBMCs were analyzed using single-cell RNA sequencing.
