1 20213311 Treponema denticola suppresses expression of human beta-defensin-2 in gingival epithelial cells through inhibition of TNFalpha production and TLR2 activation.
2 20213311 We previously reported that Treponema denticola, a periodontal pathogen, suppressed the expression of human beta-defensins (HBDs) and IL-8 in human gingival epithelial cells.
3 20213311 Time courses of suppression revealed that T. denticola suppressed HBD-2 expression only at late time points, which was accompanied with the suppression of TNFalpha production.
4 20213311 Neutralization of TNFalpha with an antibody abrogated the suppressive effect of T. denticola on HBD-2.
5 20213311 Knock-down of toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 via RNA interference reversed the suppressive effect of T. denticola on the expression of HBD-3, but not on the production of TNFalpha.
6 20213311 Collectively, T. denticola suppresses the expression of HBD-2 in gingival epithelial cells by inhibiting the TLR2 axis and TNFalpha production, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of periodontitis by T. denticola.
