A previous study revealed that A. dahurica blocks excessive proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) to provide protective effects against periodontal diseases to alleviate inflammatory responses (Lee et al., 2017). Here, IL6 is linked to periodontal disorder.
