Glycated matrix up‐regulates inflammatory signaling similarly to <i><scp>P</scp>orphyromonas gingivalis</i> lipopolysaccharide

Abstract

Matrix glycation modulated cell behavior to induce inflammation equivalent to that produced by incubation with P. gingivalis LPS. Periodontal inflammation also led to matrix glycation, thus demonstrating a definite interaction between diabetes and periodontitis.
