| Research Abstract |
Lipopolysaccharide from Actinobaci11us actinomycetemcomitans (A.a) Y4 and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g) 381 was dropped into the gingival sulcus of rat. The mandibles were examined histopathologically. Inflammatory findings gradually increased in both LPS groups. However, A.a LPS induced stronger inflammation and degeneration of periodontal tissue. Loss of connective tissue attachment and elongation of rete peg were significantly higher in rats administrated with A.a LPS compared to those administrated with P.g LPS.These findings suggest a stronger effect of A.a LPS on periodontal tissue destruction.
