Expression data from human macrophages treated with Porphyromonas gingivalis and its components

Periodontitis is the most common human infection affecting tooth-supporting structures. It was shown to play a role in aggravating atherosclerosis. To deepen our understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease, we exposed human macrophages to an oral bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) either as live bacteria, or its lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or fimbria.
