Spontaneous Periodontitis Development in Diabetic Rats Involves an Unrestricted Expression of Inflammatory Cytokines and Tissue Destructive Factors in the Absence of Major Changes in Commensal Oral Microbiota

<table>Variations in the number of immunoreactive cells is not associated with bacterial load. Bacterial load (16S) in periodontal tissues was quantified by Real-TimePCR, using SyberGreen system and normalized by tissue weight. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s test.</table>
