First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This observational study looks at whether a specific immune pathway (JAK1/2) is overactive in people with gum disease (periodontitis) compared to those with healthy gums. Researchers will collect small gum tissue samples from 30 adults to measure pathway activity. The goal is to better understand what causes gum inflammation, which could lead to new treatments in the future.
