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.

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

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans With Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. [PDF]
Int Dent JThe 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.

Periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Present and future
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract For more than two decades the possible association between periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes has been extensively evaluated. Numerous observational, intervention, and mechanistic studies have offered valuable information on this topic.

Characterization and serotype distribution of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans detected in a population of periodontitis patients in Spain. [PDF]
, 2009 Objective: To investigate the serotype distribution of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. a.) and the polymorphism of the genes that codify the leukotoxin (ltx) and the operon of the cytolethal distending toxin (cdt) in periodontitis patients in ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract This narrative review celebrates Europe's contribution to the current knowledge on systemically administered antimicrobials in periodontal treatment. Periodontitis is the most frequent chronic noncommunicable human disease. It is caused by dysbiotic bacterial biofilms and is commonly treated with subgingival instrumentation.
