Recent studies have revealed that negative regulatory molecules, including interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-M (IRAK-M), control the overactivation of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling. The role of IRAK-M in human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs), which express TLRs, remains unclear. The present study examined the role of IRAK-M on interleukin-8 and macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) expression in HGECs stimulated with Porphyromonas gingivalis and TLR ligands.
