Porphyromonas gingivalis induce apoptosis in human gingival epithelial cells through a gingipain-dependent mechanism
BACKGROUND: The oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis has been shown to modulate apoptosis in different cell types, but its effect on epithelial cells remains unclear. RESULTS: We demonstrate that primary human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs) challenged with live P. gingivalis for 24 hours exhibi...
