ABSTRACT
Prevotella intermedia is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium that is a common pathogen of periodontitis. Recent studies have revealed that P. intermedia is closely associated with a variety of diseases involving multiple systems. Under the action of its virulence factors such as cysteine protease and adhesins, P. intermedia has the ability to bind and invade various host cells including gingival fibroblasts. It can also copolymerize a variety of pathogenic bacteria, leading to interference with the host's immune inflammatory response and causing various diseases. In this article, we review the progress of research on P. intermedia virulence factors and bacterial pathogenesis, and the correlation between P. intermedia and various diseases.
