The Dictyostelium discoideum FimA protein, unlike yeast and plant fimbrins, is regulated by calcium similar to mammalian plastins

Scientific Reports, 2023
Plastins, also known as fimbrins, are highly conserved eukaryotic multidomain proteins that are involved in actin-bundling. They all contain four independently folded Calponin Homology-domains and an N-terminal headpiece that is comprised of two calcium ...

High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid Reduces the Expression of Virulence Genes fimA, mfa1, hagA, rgpA, and kgp in the Oral Pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis

Pharmaceutics, 2022
Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is a cornerstone pathogen in the development and progression of periodontal and peri-implant tissue destruction. It is capable of causing dysbiosis of the microbial biofilm and modulation of the host immune system.

Recombinant Porphyromonas gingivalis W83 FimA alters immune response and metabolic gene expression in oral squamous carcinoma cells

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2022
The Gram‐negative anaerobic rod Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is regarded as a keystone pathogen in periodontitis and expresses a multitude of virulence factors iincluding fimbriae that are enabling adherence to and invasion in cells and ...

Respiratory FimA-Specific Secretory IgA Antibodies Upregulated by DC-Targeting Nasal Double DNA Adjuvant Are Essential for Elimination of Porphyromonas gingivalis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Our previous studies showed that a combination of a DNA plasmid encoding Flt3 ligand (pFL) and CpG oligodeoxynucleotides 1826 (CpG ODN) (FL/CpG) as a nasal adjuvant provoked antigen-specific immune responses.

Variation in the Occurrence of fimA Genotypes of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontal Health and Disease

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Porphyromonas gingivalis is regarded as a “keystone pathogen” in periodontitis. The fimbria assists in the initial attachment, biofilm organization, and bacterial adhesion leading to the invasion and colonization of host epithelial cells.
