Microbiome analysis of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans JP2 clone-associated aggressive periodontitis
The study involved analysis by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of subgingival plaque samples collected from Moroccan children with aggressive periodontitis, specically in cases that tested positive for the JP2 clone, a highly leukotoxic strain of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans.
