Lipopolysaccharide induces bacterial autophagy in epithelial keratinocytes of the gingival sulcus

Abstract Background Interactions of resident bacteria and/or their producing lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with sulcular epithelial keratinocytes may be regulated by autophagy in the gingival sulcus. In this study, we investigated an induction of bacterial autophagy in exfoliative sulcular keratinocytes...
