additional information | Porphyromonas gingivalis | gingipains are considered to be key virulence factors of the bacterium in relation to periodontal diseases. Kgp suppresses interleukin-8 production in human HSC-2 epithelial cells requiring both the hemagglutinin and the enzymic domains. Suppression of IL-8 resultes in attenuation of the cellular recognition of bacteria, and as a consequence, sustain chronic inflammation | ? | - |
