Porphyromonas gingivalis is one of the principal pathogens in the development of adult periodontitis. Several different animal models have been used to evaluate the complex interactions between P. gingivalis and the host and these have been an important research tool for studying the pathogenesis of P. gingivalis-mediated periodontal diseases.
牙龈卟啉单胞菌是成人牙周炎发展过程中的主要病原体之一。几种不同的动物模型已被用于评估牙龈卟啉单胞菌与宿主之间的复杂相互作用,这些模型一直是研究牙龈卟啉单胞菌介导的牙周疾病发病机制的重要研究工具。
