The aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans heat shock protein GroEL interacts directly with human peripheral blood T cells [PDF]
, 2016 Heat shock family protein GroEL of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) has antigenic properties. We previously demonstrated that A. actinomycetemcomitans GroEL-like protein affects human CD4 T cells by converting them into IL-10 and IFNg double ...

Invasive Infections of Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) Actinomycetemcomitans
Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2010 Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actinomycetemcomitans, part of the normal flora of the mouth, is frequently found in human periodontal cultures and is an important pathogen causing various invasive infections, particularly infective endocarditis. In this study, we describe the clinical course and outcome of patients with A.

Virulence and Pathogenicity Properties of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans [PDF]
Pathogens, 2019 Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a periodontal pathogen colonizing the oral cavity of a large proportion of the human population. It is equipped with several potent virulence factors that can cause cell death and induce or evade inflammation. Because of the large genetic diversity within the species, both harmless and highly virulent genotypes ...

Microbiota around teeth and dental implants in periodontally healthy, partially edentulous patients:is pre-implant microbiological testing relevant? [PDF]
, 2010 This study aimed to assess the prevalence of seven periodontal marker pathogens, before implant placement and 1 yr after loading, in periodontally healthy individuals and to assess the long-term effectiveness of pre-implant reduction of pathogens to ...

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2018 Backgroud/purpose: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans has emerged as one of the aetiological agents in periodontal disease. Although Type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) are widely distributed in many bacteria, the genetic features and distribution of ...

Development of antiseptic adaptation and cross-adapatation in selected oral pathogens in vitro [PDF]
, 2019 There is evidence that pathogenic bacteria can adapt to antiseptics upon repeated exposure. More alarming is the concomitant increase in antibiotic resistance that has been described for some pathogens.
