Inducible expression of human β-defensin 2 by Fusobacterium nucleatum in oral epithelial cells : Multiple signaling pathways and role of commensal bacteria in innate immunity and the epithelial barrier

Human gingival epithelial cells (HGE) express two antimicrobial peptides of the beta-defensin family, human beta-defensin 1 (hBD-1) and hBD-2, as well as cytokines and chemokines that contribute to innate immunity. In the present study, the expression and transcriptional regulation of hBD-2 was exam...
