Targeted Delivery of a Photosensitizer to Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Biofilm [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2010
ABSTRACT The ability to selectively target specific biofilm species with antimicrobials would enable control over biofilm consortium composition, with medical applications in treatment of infections on mucosal surfaces that are colonized by a mixture of beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms.

Discrepancies in Antimicrobial Susceptibility between the JP2 and the Non-JP2 Genotype of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

Antibiotics, 2022
The Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans JP2 genotype is associated with high leukotoxin production and severe (aggressive) periodontitis. The aim of this study was to compare the antimicrobial susceptibility of JP2 and non-JP2 genotype strains. Minimal

Genomic integration and expression of the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans catalase gene in Aggregatibacter aphrophilus [PDF]

Archives of Oral Biology, 2018
To test the hypothesis that virulence genes of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans can be expressed and confer fitness advantages in the closely related Aggregatibacter aphrophilus.Clinical isolates of A. aphrophilus were screened for natural competence with marked genomic DNA from A. actinomycetemcomitans and A. aphrophilus.

Occurrence of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans in Brazilians with chronic periodontitis [PDF]

Brazilian Oral Research, 2010
Studies have suggested that A. actinomycetemcomitans is involved in the aetiology of aggressive periodontitis as well as in chronic periodontitis. This study was aimed at elucidating the occurrence of A. actinomycetemcomitans in a Brazilian population with chronic periodontitis. A total of 555 (mean age 33.04 +/- 12.45) individuals, living in two large

Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans: Current Overview

Dentistry and Oral Maxillofacial Surgery, 2022
Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans is one of the most aggressive pathobionts studied to the date. It encodes numerous putative toxins, the complex interplay of these toxins with the subgingival microbiota affects host defense mechanisms leading to rigorous destruction of the periodontium further causing loss of the tooth.

Presence and Immunoreactivity of <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i> in Rheumatoid Arthritis. [PDF]

Pathogens
The presence of periodontal pathogens is associated with an increased prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The systemic antibody response to epitopes of these bacteria is often used as a proxy to study correlations between bacteria and RA. The primary aim of the present study is to examine the correlation between the presence of Aggregatibacter ...

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Leukotoxin [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2010
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative bacterium that colonizes the human oral cavity and is the causative agent for localized aggressive periodontitis (LAP), an aggressive form of periodontal disease that occurs in adolescents. A. actinomycetemcomitans secretes a protein toxin, leukotoxin (LtxA), which helps the bacterium evade the ...

The cell envelope proteome of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans [PDF]

Molecular Oral Microbiology, 2014
SummaryThe cell envelope of gram‐negative bacteria serves a critical role in maintenance of cellular homeostasis, resistance to external stress, and host–pathogen interactions. Envelope protein composition is influenced by the physiological and environmental demands placed on the bacterium.
