After recording the periodontal parameters (plaque index (PI), modified gingival index (MGI), probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL)), the serum and GCF samples were collected and the levels of caspase-3 and MFG-E8 were estimated using enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mean values of PI, MGI, PD and CALs were significantly higher in group III when compared to group II and group I. The mean value of serum and GCF caspase-3 increased with increasing disease severity, whereas the mean serum and GCF values of MFG-E8 decreased with increasing severity of disease. Spearman\u2019s correlation showed a strong positive correlation between the serum and GCF levels of caspase-3 and periodontal parameters, whereas serum and GCF levels of MFG-E8 showed a strong negative correlation with the periodontal parameters.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings of this study are suggestive that the serum and GCF levels of caspase-3 and MFG-E8 could serve as a potential biomarker for the role of apoptosis in periodontal disease. However, further studies are required to explore the mechanism and understand the relationship between these apoptotic markers and periodontitis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijdr.ijdr_62_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,20]],"date-time":"2024-04-20T12:00:06Z","timestamp":1713614406000},"page":"359-364","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Correlation of Serum and Gingival Crevicular Fluid Levels of Caspase-3 and Milk Fat Globule\u2013Epidermal Growth Factor 8 on Gingival Health"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Manonmani Pavithra","family":"Ravindran","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A","family":"Geetha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sathish","family":"Rajendran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jaideep","family":"Mahendra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Jyothi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ambalavanan","family":"Namasivayam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Maduravoyal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20250715","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"8","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-0757.2001.22250102.x","article-title":"Causation and pathogenesis of periodontal disease","volume":"25","author":"Kinane","year":"2001","journal-title":"Periodontol 2000"},{"key":"R2-20250715","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1237","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2003.74.8.1237","article-title":"Diagnosis of periodontal diseases","volume":"74","author":"Armitage","year":"2003","journal-title":"J Periodontol"},{"key":"R3-20250715","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"29","DOI":"10.1177\/0022034509350708","article-title":"Inhibition of apoptosis in periodontitis","volume":"89","author":"Lucas","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Dent Res"},{"key":"R4-20250715","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"a008656","DOI":"10.1101\/cshperspect.a008656","article-title":"Caspase functions in cell death and disease","volume":"5","author":"McIlwain","year":"2013","journal-title":"Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol"},{"key":"R5-20250715","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2220","DOI":"10.19070\/2377-8075-21000439","article-title":"P H.
