Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans: virulence of its leukotoxin and association with aggressive periodontitis.

Virulence - 1 Jan 2015

Åberg Carola Höglund, Kelk Peyman, Johansson Anders

Abstract excerpt

Periodontitis is an infection-induced inflammatory disease that causes loss of the tooth supporting tissues. Much focus has been put on comparison of the microbial biofilm in the healthy periodontium with the diseased one. The information arising from such studies is limited due to difficulties to compare the microbial composition in these two completely different ecological niches. A few longitudinal studies...
