Research Abstract |
Porphyromonas gingivalis has been reported to be a main factor for periodontitis. P. gingivalis enters cells by the endocytosis and damages to various cell functions. Nevertheless, intracellular traffic of P. gingivalis is largely unknown .Recently, We found that P. gingivalis utilizes endocytic recycling pathway for their survival from intracellular mechanism of killing bactria, and the organisms exit from infected cells and re-enter neighbouring cells, which may cause persistant infection.
