Do periodontopathogens induce expression of CD40L on human platelets via TLR2 and TLR4?
Our data indicate an involvement of periodontopathogens in increased plasma levels of soluble CD40L in periodontitis and therefore provide a novel link between periodontitis and increased risk for CVD.
Survey findings indicated the video was well presented and relevant, and the Web-based format was considered convenient and satisfactory. Participants would take other courses using this technology, and agreed this program would enhance patient care.
