Distribution and activity of nitrate and nitrite reductases in the microbiota of the human intestinal tract

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Nitrate from food is first converted to nitrite by oral bacteria and then further processed in the intestine. The gut microbiota reduces nitrate and nitrite to ammonia or nitric oxide, preventing the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines. Our analysis highlights Escherichia coli as a key player in this detoxification process, supported by other ...

Dysbiosis‐Mediated Inflammation: A Pathophysiological Link Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To explore mechanistic links between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis (PD) through the lens of subgingival microbial dysbiosis–mediated inflammation. Methods Subgingival plaque from 100 volunteers with RA and PD (RAPD), 22 with RA (RAnoPD), 18 with PD (PDnoRA) and 19 healthy controls (noRAnoPD) was analysed using 16S‐amplicon ...

Oral‐Rinse‐Sourced Microbiota in Oral Health and Diseases in a Representative US Adult Population: Implications for Diagnostics

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims To investigate the associations between oral‐rinse microbiota and distinct oral conditions, and further evaluate its potential ability to distinguish periodontitis severity. Methods Oral‐rinse‐sourced microbiota with 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing from 3770 adults in US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009–2012 were ...

Differences in the Oral Microbiome Between Patients With and Without Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although studies have demonstrated a relationship between pathogenic microorganisms and oral cancer, no study has demonstrated a relationship between changes in bacterial flora and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Therefore, we investigated the association between oral microbiota and oral squamous cell carcinoma using ...
