Comparative evaluation of microRNA ‑155 expression level and its correlation with tumor necrotizing factor α and interleukin 6 in patients with chronic periodontitis

Conclusion: As the expression level of miR ‑155, TNF‑α, and IL‑6 genes was higher in subjectswith chronic periodontitis than healthy individuals, it might suggest a role for miR ‑155 in patientswith chronic periodontitis.Key Words: Interleukin ‑6, microRNAs, microRNA‑155, periodontitis, tumor necrosisfactor ‑alpha
