Virion stripping: A new role for bacterial proteases
2025-05-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> We demonstrate that proteases produced by the oro-pharyngeal bacterial colonizer Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) reduce viral burden and modulate host interferon responses during respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. Several oral bacteria, including Pg , have been shown to translocate to the upper airways through sub-clinical micro-aspiration. Our findings reveal that Pg , upon transloca...
