Investigation of the calculus microbiome in canines and felines using next-generation sequencing [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2018
The oral cavity of dogs and cats is colonized by hundreds of bacterial species. Here, we describe the bacterial composition in the dental calculus of dogs and cats.

Reactivity of aragonite with dicalcium phosphate facilitates removal of dental calculus

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine
Dental calculus, a main contributor of periodontal diseases, is mostly composed of inorganic calcium phosphate species such as dicalcium phosphate, whitlockite, octa calcium phosphate, and hydroxyapatite.

Detection, removal and prevention of calculus: Literature Review

Saudi Dental Journal, 2014
Dental plaque is considered to be a major etiological factor in the development of periodontal disease. Accordingly, the elimination of supra- and sub-gingival plaque and calculus is the cornerstone of periodontal therapy.

Effect of salivary urea, pH and ureolytic microflora on dental calculus formation and its correlation with periodontal status

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2023
Context: Dental calculus, formed by mineralization of plaque predisposes to the development of periodontal disease. Aim: To evaluate the influence of salivary urea and the presence of ureolytic bacteria on dental calculus formation and periodontal status

Dental calculus and the evolution of the human oral microbiome

, 2016
Characterizing the evolution of the oral microbiome is a challenging, but increasingly feasible, task. Recently, dental calculus has been shown to preserve ancient biomolecules from the oral microbiota, host tissues and diet for tens of thousands of ...

Development of human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 by yeast display

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 are generated by yeast display‐guided selection. These antibodies bind to soluble and cell‐surface forms of TARM1. Also, these antibodies exhibit agonistic activity in the NFAT‐GFP reporter assay, indicating that TARM1 signaling can be functionally modulated by antibodies and suggesting TARM1 as a potential ...

The Potential of Dental Calculus as a Novel Source of Biological Isotopic Data [PDF]

, 2023
Stable isotope analysis has become an essential tool in investigations of ancient migration and paleodietary reconstruction. Because the biogeochemistry of bone collagen and apatite is well known, current methods rely almost exclusively on analyses of ...

An unusual presentation of dental calculus

Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2019
Calculus is a mineralized bacterial plaque that is formed on natural teeth surfaces where there is constant supply of saliva. Dental calculus is commonly seen over the buccal surfaces of maxillary molars and lingual surfaces of mandibular anterior teeth where the salivary duct opens into the oral cavity.

Dental calculus: the calcified biofilm and its role in disease development.

, 2017
Dental calculus represents the first fossilized record of bacterial communities as a testimony of evolutionary biology. The development of dental calculus is a dynamic process that starts with a nonmineralized biofilm which eventually calcifies ...

A Depolarizing Leak in Sodium Bicarbonate Cotransporter NBCe1 Causes Brain Edema

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives SLC4A4 encodes electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1, prominently expressed in kidney and brain. Recessive loss‐of‐function variants in SLC4A4 cause proximal renal tubular acidosis, no brain edema. In the brain, NBCe1 is expressed by astrocytes, where it regulates pH and mediates astrocyte volume changes.
