Systematic name
M4309
Brief description
Genes up-regulated in comparison of contols neutrophils versus those infected with a bacterium (F. nucleatum).
Full description or abstract
Neutrophils are known to be stimulated by different periodontal bacteria to produce reactive oxygen species and cytokines. It is inportant to investigate the gene changes made by bacteria of importance, of which, for periodontal disease, fusobaterium nucleatum is one. we used microarrays to investigate gene experssion changes in peripheral blood neutrophils werwhich e stimulated with or with out Fusobacterium Nucleatum (10953).
