In vitro modeling of host-parasite interactions: the 'subgingival' biofilm challenge of primary human epithelial cells

BACKGROUND: Microbial biofilms are known to cause an increasing number of chronic inflammatory and infectious conditions. A classical example is chronic periodontal disease, a condition initiated by the subgingival dental plaque biofilm on gingival epithelial tissues. We describe here a new model th...
