Periodontitis, characterized by persistent inflammation in the periodontium, is intricately connected to systemic diseases, including oral cancer. Bacteria, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum, play a pivotal role periodontitis development because they contribute dysbiosis tissue destruction. Thus, comprehending interplay between these bacteria their impacts on holds significant relevance clinical understanding treatment advancement. In present work, we explored, for...
Background Porphyromonas gingivalis is part of the subgingival biofilm and a keystone species in development periodontitis. Interactions between P.gingivalis other bacteria biofilms have been shown to affect bacterial virulence. Helicobacter pylori also inhabits biofilm, but consequences interactions there with remain unknown. Here, we investigated how pre-incubation H.pylori affects virulence.Methods We assayed internalization by oral keratinocytes (OKs), hemagglutination formation identify...
