Background: Interleukin (IL) -11 and IL-17 are cytokines that modulate the inflammatory process and have not been assessed within normal or inflamed gingival tissues. Our purpose was to compare concentrations of human IL-11 and IL-17 within healthy and diseased human gingiva to determine their possible role in the initiation or progression of periodontal diseases.Methods: Biopsies from healthy (non-hemorrhagic gingiva adjacent to a 3 mm gingival sulcus) and diseased gingiva (hemorrhagic gingiva adjacent to a 3 mm periodontal pocket) were studied. IL-11, IL-17, RANTES, and IL-6 concentrations were assessed within solubilized gingival biopsies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data were compared by factorial analysis of variance and a post-hoc Tukey honestly significant difference (HSD) test. Regression analysis and partial correlation analysis (adjusted for sample weight) were also used to determine correlations between the variables.Results: Interleukin-11 concentrations were highest within gingiva adjacent to 3 mm diseased pockets (P
