title: [Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle induced cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells in vitro].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To establish the model of cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells in vitro induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle and to probe into the pathogenesis of Porphyromonas gingivalis in periodontitis.
  
  
  METHODS
  The effect of Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle on prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production of gingival epithelial cells was detected by ELISA and the effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 mRNA expression in gingival epithelial cells were determined by Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
  
  
  RESULTS
  Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle dose-dependently induced PGE(2) production and up-regulated COX-2, IL-6 and IL-8 mRNA expression in gingival epithelial cells significantly.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicle may contribute to the initiation and progression of periodontitis.
