[Role of human viruses in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease].

Human viruses play a fundamental role in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease due to their intrinsec capacity to interfere with immune system of the host. Herpesvirus maybe involved in the onset or progress of a number of periodontal diseases while HIV seems to be related to the linear gingival erythema (LGE) and necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis (NUP).

Treating periodontal diseases by blocking tissue-destructive enzymes.

A new therapeutic approach involves the discovery by the "Stony Brook group," that tetracyclines, but not other antibiotics, can inhibit host-derived collagen-destructive enzymes. This newly discovered property of tetracyclines is unrelated to the antimicrobial activity of these drugs. Examples support the hypothesis that this unexpected property of tetracyclines provides a new approach to treating periodontal diseases as well as a variety of medical disorders.
