Porphyromonas gingivalis Infection Reduces Regulatory T Cells in Infected Atherosclerosis Patients

Increasing evidence has shown periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.gingivalis) infection contributes to atherosclerosis (AS) progression. P.gingivalis fimbriae act as an important virulence factor in AS. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) may play a crucial role in autoimmune response during thi...
