BioVector NTCC質粒載體菌株細胞蛋白抗體基因保藏中心

• Tannerella forsythia is a Gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium that is a significant member of the oral microbiome.

• Role in Periodontal Disease: It is strongly associated with severe periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the tissues supporting the teeth.

  • It's part of the "red complex" of bacteria, a group of microorganisms considered highly important in the progression of periodontitis.

  
  

• Virulence Factors:

  • Proteases: T. forsythia produces enzymes that can break down proteins in the host tissues, contributing to tissue destruction.

  • Sialidase: This enzyme can degrade host cell surface molecules, potentially interfering with host defenses.

  • Adhesion: It can adhere to host tissues and other bacteria, forming complex biofilms that contribute to disease progression.

  
  

Important Note: The presence of T. forsythia in the mouth does not always mean that periodontitis will develop. However, it is considered a key player in the development and progression of this serious oral disease.
