BACKGROUND Porphyromonas gingivalis inhibits oral epithelial wound healing in vitro more strongly than other oral bacteria, but it is unknown why P. gingivalis is such a potent inhibitor of wound healing. OBJECTIVE Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of major virulence factors of P. gingivalis on wound healing in an in vitro wound-healing model. The influence of ...
Deregulation of the cytokine network is an important adaptation of pathogenic bacteria to modulate and evade a host immune response. Here we describe that IL-6 is rapidly and efficiently cleaved and inactivated by the arginine- and lysine-specific proteinases from Porphyromonas gingivalis, referred to as RGP-A, RGP-B, and KGP. One of the primary cleavage sites for RGPs has been mapped between R...
BACKGROUND The relationship between chronic periodontitis (CP) and increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) is known but quantitative assessments and mechanisms are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between past myocardial infarction (MI) and the severity of CP, and the level of serum antibody titer against Porphyromonas gingivalis gingipains. M...
Cysteine proteinases from Porphyromonas gingivalis, or gingipains, are considered to be key virulence factors of the bacterium in relation to periodontal diseases. Incubation of human oral epithelial cells with lysine-specific gingipain (Kgp) and high-molecular-mass arginine-specific gingipain (HRgpA) resulted in a decrease in the production of interleukin (IL)-8, but not in the production of o...
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) of the periodontopathic bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis contain a wide range of virulence factors including lipopolysaccharide (LPS), fimbriae and gingipains. We have recently reported strong immunogenicity of OMVs using an intranasal vaccine mouse model. In the present study, we performed sub-immunoproteome analysis of OMV-immunized mouse serum samples from si...
Gingipains are the major virulence factors of Porphyromonas gingivalis, the main periodontopathogen. It is expected that inhibition of gingipain activity in vivo could prevent or slow down the progression of adult periodontitis. To date, several classes of gingipain inhibitors have been recognized. These include gingipain N-terminal prodomains, synthetic compounds, inhibitors from natural sourc...
