Regulation of adhesin synthesis in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. [PDF]

Mol Oral Microbiol, 2023
Abstract Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a gram‐negative bacterium associated with periodontal disease and a variety of disseminated extra‐oral infections. Tissue colonization is mediated by fimbriae and non‐fimbriae adhesins resulting in the formation of a sessile bacterial community ...

Carbonated Hydroxyapatite Containing Propolis as an Antibacterial Agent Candidate against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

Majalah Obat Tradisional, 2020
One of the periodontal pathogenic bacteria that can cause periodontitis and alveolar bone destruction is Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. An alveolar bone defect can be treated using a bone graft.

Evolutionary Divergence of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2015
Gram-negative facultative Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral pathogen associated with periodontitis. The genetic heterogeneity among A. actinomycetemcomitans strains has been long recognized. This study provides a comprehensive genomic analysis of A.

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Atherosclerosis

Journal of Integrative Cardiology Open Access, 2020
Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition around the teeth which affects 20-50% of the worldwide population. In periodontal disease, the bacterial plaque destroys the epithelium of the periodontal pocket and breaks the barrier that separates the tissue and the circulation, allowing oral bacteria and their endotoxins and exotoxins to enter the ...

Neutrophil-derived resistin release induced by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. [PDF]

, 2011
Resistin is an adipokine that induces insulin resistance in mice. In humans, resistin is not produced in adipocytes, but in various leukocytes instead, and it acts as a proinflammatory molecule.

Characterization of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans strains in periodontitis patients in Germany [PDF]

, 2012
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans strains of serotype b and with a deletion of 530 bp in the promoter region of the leukotoxin gene (JP2 clone) are known to be associated with severe periodontitis.

Therapeutic Applications of <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i> Leukotoxin. [PDF]

Pathogens
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative oral bacterium that has been primarily studied for its role in causing periodontal disease. The bacterium has also been implicated in several systemic diseases such as endocarditis and soft tissue abscesses.

Proteomics of Protein Secretion by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

PLoS ONE, 2012
The extracellular proteome (secretome) of periodontitis-associated bacteria may constitute a major link between periodontitis and systemic diseases. To obtain an overview of the virulence potential of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, an oral and systemic human pathogen implicated in aggressive periodontitis, we used a combined LC-MS/MS and ...

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

, 2023
The most prevalent disease on planet earth, periodontitis, is an inflammatory disease that destroys soft tissues and bone surrounding our teeth, ultimately leading to tooth loss. Periodontitis is associated with changes in the oral microbial community.

Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans With Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. [PDF]

Int Dent J
The aim of this work was to explore the association between Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A actinomycetemcomitans) infection and disease activity amongst those with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with or without periodontitis (PD) in a Chinese population.A case-control study was conducted from November 2017 to March 2019.
