Filifactor alocis has recently emerged as a periodontal pathobiont that appears to thrive in the oral cavity of smokers. We hypothesized that identification of smoke-responsive F. alocis genes would provide insight into adaptive strategies and that cigarette smoke would enhance F. alocis pathogenesis in vivo.

烟草烟雾加剧 Filifactor alocis 的致病性


Filifactor alocis最近作为一种牙周病菌出现，似乎在吸烟者的口腔中大量繁殖。我们假设，对烟雾反应性F. alocis基因的鉴定将为适应性策略提供见解，并且香烟烟雾将增强F. alocis体内的发病机制。
