physiological function | expression pattern of cytokines and their receptors in differentiated macrophages following exposure to active and inactive forms of the gingipains (HRgpA, RgpB and Kgp), using a cDNA array, quantitative PCR and ELISA analysis is determined. The results indicate that the adhesin subunits of the high molecular weight gingipains (HRgpA and Kgp) but not low molecular weight gingipain (RgpB) mediate strong upregulation of the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1beta and colony stimulatory factor) in macrophages | Porphyromonas gingivalis |
