Aqueous extracts of Moringa oleifera and Cinnamomum cassia as promising sources of antibiofilm compounds against mucoid and small colony variants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus

Biofilm
Bacterial biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa pose significant challenges in treating cystic fibrosis (CF) airway infections due to their resistance to antibiotics.

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,

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Nanometric Faujasite (FAU) Zeolite Ion‐Exchanged With Metal Ions for Hemostatic and Antimicrobial Applications: A Thromboelastographic and Microbiological Study

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, Volume 21, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
Faujasite nanozeolite (NanoFAU) and its ion‐exchanged forms (Ag+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Mg2+) were synthesized and characterized to assess their biomedical potential. NanoFAU‐Ca showed superior hemostatic activity, while NanoFAU‐Ag exhibited strong antimicrobial effects against S. aureus and C. albicans.
