Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Leukotoxin (LtxA; Leukothera(®)): Mechanisms of Action and Therapeutic Applications
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral pathogen that produces the RTX toxin, leukotoxin (LtxA; Leukothera(®)). A. actinomycetemcomitans is strongly associated with the development of localized aggressive periodontitis. LtxA acts as a virulence factor for A. actinomycetemcomitans to subvert...
