Comparative evaluation of serum and gingival crevicular fluid levels of interleukin 21 in periodontally diseased and healthy patients
According to the current study's findings, periodontally involved patients had higher IL-21 levels than periodontally healthy patients, suggesting it can be used as biomarker. Further studies with larger sample size can shed more light on the clinical advantage of IL-21 as a possible marker for disease activity and progression.
