Induction of β-Defensin Resistance in the Oral Anaerobe Porphyromonas gingivalis

Induction of resistance of oral anaerobes to the effects of human β-defensin 1 (hβD-1) to hβD-4 was investigated by pretreating cells with either sublethal levels of defensins or environmental factors, followed by a challenge with lethal levels of defensins. Cultures of Porphyromonas gingivalis were...
