Objectives The aim of this present study was to evaluate the levels of Netrin-1 and Unc5b in periodontal health and disease. Background Netrin-1, acting via its receptor UNC5b, regulates the inflammatory response and takes apart in bone destructive diseases. Methods Samples of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), whole saliva, and serum were taken from systemically healthy, nonsmoking 20 periodontitis , 20 gingivitis patients, and 20 periodontally healthy subjects at baseline and 4 weeks after nonsurgical periodontal treatment (NSPT). Whole-mouth and site-specific clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Netrin-1 and Unc5b levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data were analyzed by nonparametric tests. Results Total amount of Netrin-1 in GCF was significantly higher in periodontitis than the others, and the levels were significantly reduced after NSPT. Salivary and serum concentrations of Netrin-1 were significantly different among the study groups (P = .000), and NSPT significantly increased the concentration levels of both salivary and serum Netrin-1 (P < .05). Healthy subjects had significantly lower GCF (P = .001) and conversely, higher salivary and serum levels of Unc5b than the other groups (P = .002). The GCF levels of Unc5b were significantly reduced (P < .01), and conversely, serum concentrations were significantly increased after NSPT (P < .05). GCF Netrin-1 and Unc5b total amounts were positively correlated with clinical parameters (P P < .05) whereas salivary Netrin-1 and Unc5b concentrations were negatively correlated with clinical parameters (P P < .05). Conclusions The results of this study indicate that Netrin-1 and its receptor Unc5b may have essential roles in periodontal inflammation and those can be assumed as useful therapeutic agent to control inflammation and periodontal breakdown.
