Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Bacteroides gingivalis activate human peripheral monocytes to produce interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor

The effects of gram-negative bacteria clearly associated with juvenile and adult periodontitis on monokine production were assessed using standard in vitro assay techniques. Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Bacteroides gingivalis were able to activate human peripheral blood monocytes to prod...
