Salivary lipid metabolism in periodontitis patients with spleen-stomach dampness-heat syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Spleen-stomach damp-heat syndrome is one of the most common syndrome types in periodontitis from traditional Chinese medicine theory. However, its pathological mechanism is still uncertain. Tissue metabolism is driven by microbes in the host and its microenvironment. Hostmicrobe-metabolism is an interacting and closely related complex. Lipid metabolomics can find lipid metabolites in disease or healthy state, which is beneficial to explore the metabolic process and change mechanism of lipids that may be involved in organisms in healthy or disease state from the perspective of systems biology.

Methods

In this study, 10 patients in the periodontitis group (CP), 10 patients in the periodontitis with spleen-stomach dampness-heat syndrome group (SP) and 10 patients in
