Article Synopsis
- Th17 cells play a crucial role in the immune response against oral pathogens, particularly in the development of periodontitis.
- The oral pathobiont Porphyromonas gingivalis exacerbates periodontitis by promoting Th17 cell differentiation, which occurs in Peyer's patches and allows these cells to migrate to oral tissues.
- The study shows that the intestinal microbiome influences Th17 cell response, with antibiotic treatment altering the microbiome potentially impacting the progression of periodontitis.
