Glycosylation orchestrates virulence and pathogenicity of periodontal keystone pathogens
1 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
Periodontal diseases, chronic inflammatory conditions initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, are predominantly driven by the “red complex” pathogens. This review explores how glycosylation on surface molecules of Tannerella forsythia, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Treponema denticola modulate their pathogenesis. Research reveal glycosylation profoundly impacts synthesis, stability and functionality of...
