Comparison of Experimental Diabetic Periodontitis Induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis in Mice

Figure 5

Protein expression of PTPN2, JAK1, STAT1, and STAT3 in the gingival epithelium of db/db and C57 mice was shown in the IHC staining images. Attenuated expression of PTPN2 and elevated expression of JAK1, STAT1, and STAT3 were seen in infection groups compared to shame-infection groups in both db/db and C57 mice.
