From: The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis changes the gene expression in vascular smooth muscle cells involving the TGFbeta/Notch signalling pathway and increased cell proliferation

Figure 2

P. gingivalis increases AoSMCs proliferation. The neutral red assay was used to analyze changes in AoSMCs growth after challenge with P. gingivalis at the concentration of 10MOI for 24 h in the absence or presence of viable P. gingivalis. The results are presented as the mean ± SEM of four separate experiments. *, p < 0.05. **, p < 0.005. n = 4.
