Abstract
In these studies we have attempted to show that cell surface structures are critical antigens for protection against P. gingivalis-induced periodontal destruction. Fimbrillin, and in particular a synthetic 20-amino-acid fimbrillin peptide, exerts a protective effect in gnotobiotic rats, thus identifying them as potentially useful in the development of a vaccine.Entities:
