physiological function Porphyromonas gingivalis W83 (wild type), but not gingipain-deficient mutant or wild-type bacteria pretreated with gingipain inhibitors, elicit buccal edema and gingivitis in BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice. Studies in Toll-like receptors 2-/-, bradykinin B2 receptor -/-, and neutrophil-depleted C57BL/6 mice reveal that Porphyromonas gingivalis induce edema through the sequential activation of Toll-like receptors 2/neutrophils, with the initial plasma leakage being amplified by gingipain-dependent release of vasoactive kinins from plasma-borne kininogens Porphyromonas gingivalis
