Periodontal microbiology and microbial etiology of periodontal diseases: Historical concepts and contemporary perspectives

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

Screening for Antimicrobial Resistance and Genes of Exotoxins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Infected Dogs and Cats in Poland

Antibiotics, 2023
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has assumed an increasingly prominent role as the aetiological agent in serious hard-to-treat infections in animals and humans. In this study, 271 P. aeruginosa strains collected from dogs and cats were investigated. The aim of the

Prevalence of the Genes Associated with Biofilm and Toxins Synthesis amongst the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Strains

Antibiotics, 2021
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most commonly isolated bacteria from clinical specimens, with an increasing isolation frequency in nosocomial outbreaks. The hypothesis tested was whether carbapenem-resistant P.

Bacillus cereus Decreases NHE and CLO Exotoxin Synthesis to Maintain Appropriate Proteome Dynamics During Growth at Low Temperature

Toxins, 2020
Cellular proteomes and exoproteomes are dynamic, allowing pathogens to respond to environmental conditions to sustain growth and virulence. Bacillus cereus is an important food-borne pathogen causing intoxication via emetic toxin and/or multiple protein ...

Tetanus Toxin cis-Loop Contributes to Light-Chain Translocation

mSphere, 2020
The clostridial neurotoxins (CNTs) comprise tetanus toxin (TT) and botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT [BT]) serotypes (A to G and X) and several recently identified CNT-like proteins, including BT/En and the mosquito BoNT-like toxin Pmp1.

Modulation of the immune response by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type-III secretion system

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause critical cellular damage and subvert the immune response to promote its survival. Among the numerous virulence factors of P.

Assessment of the Relationship between Clinical Manifestation and Pathogenic Potential of Streptococcus pyogenes Strains-Distribution of Genes and Genotypes of Toxins

Biomedicines, 2022
Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the most important species among beta-haemolytic streptococci, causing human infections of different localization. It is isolated from clinical specimens relatively frequently.

Advanced Proteomics as a Powerful Tool for Studying Toxins of Human Bacterial Pathogens

Toxins, 2019
Exotoxins contribute to the infectious processes of many bacterial pathogens, mainly by causing host tissue damages. The production of exotoxins varies according to the bacterial species.

Bacillus anthracis edema factor substrate specificity: evidence for new modes of action [PDF]

, 2012
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.
