Berberine-loaded human dental pulp stem cells exosomes potentiate antimicrobial photodynamic therapy against Porphyromonas gingivalis biofilms
Ber@hDPSCs-Exos-based aPDT effectively inhibits P. gingivalis biofilm formation and reduces fimA expression, offering a promising adjunctive treatment for periodontitis management. Further in vivo studies are required to confirm the clinical potential of this approach.
