Localized Periodontitis in Young Individuals: Aggregatibacter JP2 Clone, Immunological Dysfunctions and Other Stories

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review describes the features of grade C molar‐incisor pattern periodontitis and discusses the role of A. actinomycetemcomitans in its pathogenesis and why molars and incisors are preferably affected. Possible future studies on this aggressive disease in primary and permanent dentition and emerging omics techniques for diagnosis and management are

Citrullination of RGG Motifs in FET Proteins by PAD4 Regulates Protein Aggregation and ALS Susceptibility

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Recent proteome analyses have provided a comprehensive overview of various posttranslational modifications (PTMs); however, PTMs involving protein citrullination remain unclear. We performed a proteomic analysis of citrullinated proteins, and we

Citrullination of Amyloid‑β Peptides in Alzheimer’s Disease

, 2021
Protein citrullination (deimination of arginine residue) is a well-known biomarker of inflammation. Elevated protein citrullination has been shown to colocalize with extracellular amyloid plaques in postmortem AD patient brains.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Evidence of membranolytic targeting and intracellular citrullination in neutrophils isolated from patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Scientific Reports
Anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) are diagnostic for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The antigens recognized by these autoantibodies are produced by protein arginine deiminases (PADs), particularly PAD4.

Oral Microbiome in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: A Systematic Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The oral cavity represents a key but underexplored interface between host immunity and microbial communities. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize current literature on oral microbiota alterations in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Perspective on Protein Arginine Deiminase Activity—Bicarbonate Is a pH-Independent Regulator of Citrullination

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Protein citrullination catalyzed by peptidyl arginine deiminase (PADs) is involved in autoimmune disease pathogenesis, especially in rheumatoid arthritis.

Tolerogenic citrullinated peptide for arthritis

Oncotarget, 2015
Disease-specific autoantibodies directed against post-translation citrullinated proteins/peptides (ACPAs) are specific serological markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and have been accepted as one of the classification criteria for the disease. Beyond diagnosis these autoantibodies have also been shown also to predict disease severity.

Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis—Global efforts to untangle two complex diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the impact of oral health on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will inform how best to manage patients with both periodontitis and RA. This review seeks to provide an update on interventional and mechanistic investigations, including a brief summary of European Research programs investigating the link between periodontitis and RA.

The role of neutrophils in the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses a spectrum of chronic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, with a potential bidirectional relationship with periodontitis. Neutrophils are key regulators of immune‐inflammatory responses and play a major role in both diseases.
