(a) COX2 expression in PDL cells stimulated by F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 over time. (b) COX2 expression in PDL cells stimulated by various concentrations of F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 at 1 day. (c) OPG expression in PDL cells stimulated by F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 over time. (d) OPG expression in PDL cells stimulated by various concentrations of F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 at 1 day. (e) COX2 expression in PDL cells stimulated by F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 (OD 0.025) in the presence or in the absence of anti-TLR2 or anti-TLR4 antibodies at 1 day. Significant difference between groups ( ).
