The role and mechanism of bacterial outer membrane vesicles in the development of periodontitis

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), nanoscale structures actively secreted by Gram-negative bacteria, have emerged as critical pathogenic components in periodontitis. While periodontitis has traditionally been associated with biofilm accumulation and bacterial colonization, recent studies highlight that...
