Gaining More Insight into the Determinants of Species Pathogenicity in the Oral Cavity

European Journal of Inflammation, 2014
Candida infection (candidiasis) is potentially life threatening and can occur in almost all anatomical sites, including the mouth. Candida species are in fact the most common fungal pathogens isolated from the oral cavity and frequently cause superficial

Association of Socioeconomic Factors With Oral Health in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral diseases remain disproportionately prevalent among older adults. However, evidence on oral health inequalities among older adults remains dispersed across studies that have used different socioeconomic indicators and oral health measures and has not been synthesised.

An experimental study of the infection of oral mucosa in vitro by candida.

, 1978
PhDA sequential study of the invasion of oral mucosa by C. albicans is difficult to accomplish in human beings or in animal models. An in vitro model of oral candidal infection has therefore been established and evaluated by light and electron ...

Oral Candidiasis

The Journal of The Korean Dental Association, 2010
The frequency of mucosal and cutaneous fungal infection is increasing worldwide, which is due to the increase of immunocompromised patients. Candida albicans are the principal species associated with human oral mycosis and are known to be the most virulent among pathogenic Candida spp.

Evolving treatments for Sjögren disease: current approaches and emerging targets

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Sjögren disease (SjD) is a prevalent systemic autoimmune condition characterised by exocrine gland dysfunction, systemic inflammation and heterogeneous organ involvement. Current management remains largely symptomatic, with no approved disease‐modifying therapies available and substantial unmet clinical need. However, advances in understanding

OX40/OX40L modulation: A target for regulating T cells in cutaneous inflammatory disorders

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
OX40 and OX40L are a co‐stimulatory immune checkpoint pair. Modulation of this pair impacts multiple immune phenotypes and is an attractive target for immunotherapy in dermatological disorders. Trials are underway with the majority in atopic dermatitis and currently in phase 3 trials.

The Expression and Potential Role of MicroRNAs in Oral Lichen Planus

Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic T‐cell‐mediated immune disease of unknown aetiology. MicroRNA (miRNAs) are short non‐coding RNAs capable of regulating mRNA and may have roles in T‐cell‐related diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the profile of miRNAs in OLP patients and its interaction with potential target ...
