The junctional epithelium is located at a strategically important interface between the
gingival sulcus, populated with bacteria, and the periodontal soft and mineralized …

Emerging data on the consequences of the interactions between invasive oral bacteria and
host cells have provided new insights into the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. Indeed …

We have developed a fluorescence imaging technique using a DNA‐binding dye to
visualize, over time, the physical interactions between Porphyromonas gingivalis and …

Background The aerial parts of Rumex acetosa L. have been used in traditional European
medicine for inflammatory diseases of the mouth epithelial tissue. The following study aimed …

Infection of oral epithelial cells with periodontopathogenic bacteria results in the production
of pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the initiation and progression of periodontal …

Background: It has been suggested that bacterial infections have a role in the pathogenesis
of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). P gingivalis, a Gram-negative, anaerobic rod, is one of the major …

Background: Porphyromonas gingivalis., a key pathogen in periodontitis, is able to adhere to
and invade the pocket epithelium. Different capsular antigens of P. gingivalis have been …

Background In patients with periodontitis, it is highly likely that local (progenitor) cells
encounter pathogenic bacteria. The purpose of this in vitro study was to elucidate how …

Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is considered to be one of the main periodontal
pathogens. The goal of this work was to confirm the ability of P. gingivalis to invade host …

The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis strain W83 displays at least three
different surface glycans, specifically two types of lipopolysaccharides (O-LPS and A-LPS) …
