Periodontopathogens interfere with the human renin-angiotensin system through a surface-attached protease

Irena Waligórska, Krzysztof M. Żak, Natalia Mikrut…·Mirosław Książęk

This study shows that oral pathogens Porphyromonas gingivalis and Tannerella forsythia use surface-attached proteases to alter the renin-angiotensin system by generating Ang 1-7.

Innocent until proven guilty: Tannerella forsythia may attenuate the virulence of Porphyromonas gingivalis

Mirosław Książęk, Małgorzata Benedyk‐Machaczka, Alicja Sochaj-Grzegorczyk…·Jan Potempa

This study shows that Tannerella forsythia's miropin inhibits Porphyromonas gingivalis proteases, reducing its virulence and challenging Tf's role as a pathogen.
