The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Antimicrobial peptides and gut microbiota in homeostasis and pathology
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2013 We survive because we adapted to a world of microorganisms. All our epithelial surfaces participate in keeping up an effective barrier against microbes while not initiating ongoing inflammatory processes and risking collateral damage to the host.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

β-Defensin gene copy number variation in cattle
Royal Society Open Scienceβ-Defensins are peptides with antimicrobial roles, characterized by a conserved tertiary structure. Beyond antimicrobial functions, they exhibit diverse roles in both the immune response and fertility, including involvement in sperm maturation and ...

Ideal soft tissue graft in periodontal and peri‐implant applications: A scoping review
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Soft tissue grafts (STG) are used in a wide range of clinical situations including volume augmentation, keratinized tissue increase, and recession coverage around teeth and implants. Each STG, produced from different sources and processed with various techniques, possesses unique material properties and interaction with the host tissues, which

Schematic structure of the defensin genes from C. floridanus.
, 2012 (A) The gene encoding defensin-1 (GenBank Acc. No.: JN989495) is composed of three exons and two introns. The first intron is located within the region coding for the propeptide and the second is located within the region coding for the mature defensin ...

Advanced Oncology, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.ABSTRACT The avian eggshell is a sophisticated, multi‐functional biocomposite and, more importantly, an autonomous life‐support system evolved to safeguard embryonic development across dynamic and hostile environments. Discussing eggshell‐inspired biomaterials beyond simple structural imitation, this review translates these evolutionary survival ...

An Anatomist's View on the Crosstalk Between the Liver and the Lung
Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2026.The liver and the lung have a similar three‐dimensional and cellular architecture as well as functional communalities. The structural, functional, and pathophysiological interplay between both organs suggests the existence of an interorgan axis, the liver‐lung axis. Created in biorender.com.
