Abstract:

Epigenetics is defined as a change in gene expression without the alteration of the genetic sequence. Such a change would be inherited by offspring. Histone acetylation is a type of epigenetics. Existing studies proposed that chronic periodontitis is related to epigenetic modification. In this review, we summarised the influence of chronic periodontitis on periodontal ligament stem cells by histone acetylation.

Key words: histone acetylation, chronic periodontitis, periodontal ligament stem cells, osteogenic differentiation
