A Multifunctional β‐Defensin‐3 Mimetic Peptide Modulates Host–Biofilm Interactions and Reduces Bone Loss in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
BDMP, a peptide that can penetrate cells and tissues, offering antimicrobial and anti‐inflammatory effects, has been identified as a potential new therapy for periodontitis. ABSTRACT Aim This study evaluated the potential of a beta‐defensin‐3 mimetic peptide (BDMP), a synthetic cell‐penetrating peptide with antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties,

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Proteomics of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Outer Membrane Vesicles

PLOS ONE, 2015
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral and systemic pathogen associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis and with endocarditis. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by this species have been demonstrated to deliver effector proteins such as cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) and leukotoxin (LtxA) into human host cells and to act as ...

Peri‐Implantitis and Periodontitis: Biological Convergence, Contextual Divergence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontal and peri‐implant tissues differ and coincide in many aspects, from the clinical and radiological perspective, including histology, microbiology, and molecular markers. Thus, health and disease may also follow different and similar routes.

Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans LPS binds human interleukin-8

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2019
Various gram-negative species sequester host cytokines using outer membrane proteins or surface modulation by sulfated polysaccharides. An outer membrane lipoprotein (BilRI) of the periodontal pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans binds several ...

Designing Polymerase Chain Reaction for Molecular Diagnostics of the Primary Bacterial Cause of Periodontitis [PDF]

Journal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2020
Background & Objective: Periodontal disease, which can become a chronic condition, is an inflammatory disease that upsets the soft and hard structures supporting the teeth. The aim of the present study was to design and develop an in-house PCR Method, to
