Periodontal disease is caused by microorganisms and host-derived inflammation involving increased cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and prostaglandin E2(PGE2) production. We previously demonstrated that human β-defensin-3 induces COX-2 and PGE2in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). We, therefore, a...
