keystone of periodontitis diseases, a set of inflammatory conditions that affects the tissues …

Arguably periodontitis is the most prevalent bacteria-driven chronic inflammatory disease of
the humankind. The incidence of periodontal disease has been reported to range from 30 …

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

Porphyromonas gingivalis, a gram-negative anaerobe, is a leading etiological agent in
periodontitis. This infectious pathogen can induce a dysbiotic, proinflammatory state within …

The composition of the subgingival bacterial microbiota is a critical determinant in the health
status of periodontal tissues. Gram-negative anaerobes such as Porphyromonas gingivalis …

Interaction between the major fimbriae of Porphyromonas gingivalis and gingival epithelial
cells is important for bacterial adhesion and invasion. In this study, we identified integrins as …

Porphyromonas gingivalis is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium associated with the
initiation and progression of adult periodontal disease. Iron is utilized by this pathogen in the …

Emerging data on the consequences of the interactions between invasive oral bacteria and
