a The expression of TNF, IFN-γ, and IL-17A in AP lesions and gingival control biopsies. The expression of TNF, IFN-γ, and IL-17A was significantly increased in AP tissues compared to gingival control tissues harvested from same patients. b Quantification of tissue-associated microbial 16S DNA. Tissue 16S rRNA gene copy number per milligram total genomic DNA isolated from indicated tissue sample. Statistical significance of comparisons between groups was made using Mann–Whitney test
