Abstract: Periodontitis and peri-implantitis influence the periodontal tissues, and result in the supporting bone loss and even tooth and implant loss. Interleukin-34 is a tolerogenic cytokine sharing the same receptor--M-CSFR with M-CSF, and is a stimulator of osteoclasts differentiation that exerts synergistic effects with RANKL and might perform an important function in the occurrence and development of periodontitis and peri-implantitis. In this paper, the mechanism of bone resorption and immunoregulatory function of interleukin-34 is summarized, which is greatly significant for understanding the pathogenic mechanism and clinical treatment of periodontitis and peri-implantitis.

Key words: Interleukin-34, Periodontitis, Peri-implantitis
