Differential Cell Lysis Among Periodontal Strains of JP2 and Non-JP2 Genotype of <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i> Serotype B Is Not Reflected in Dissimilar Expression and Production of Leukotoxin
Leukotoxic potential of <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i> strains has been studied by the use of several methods, and results differ depending on the methods used. The aim of the present study was to perform a comprehensive examination of the leukotoxic potential of a collecti...
