Zingerone-Induced Autophagy Suppresses IL-1β Production by Increasing the Intracellular Killing of <em>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</em> in THP-1 Macrophages

Periodontitis is caused by the inflammation of tooth-supporting tissue by pathogens such as <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans.</i> Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, triggers a series of inflammatory reactions and promotes bone resorption. The aim of this study w...
