Early-onset Periodontitis in Morocco is Associated with the Highly Leukotoxic Clone of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans

1 Jun 2001

Abstract excerpt

A particular clone (JP2) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans with increased leukotoxin production has been isolated from individuals with early-onset periodontitis (EOP). The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of carriers of this clone and its association with EOP in Moroccan schoolchildren. Of 217 plaque samples, 131 (60.4%) were culture-positive for A. actinomycetemcomitans. A total of 19 of...
