The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has a healing ability for periapical periodontitis
Abstract Various disease-related genes have recently been identified using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This study identified disease-related genes by analyzing SNP using genomic DNA isolated from Japanese patients with periapical periodontitis. Results showed that the SNP in LRP5 demonst...
