The gut microbiota induces melanin deposits that act as substrates for fimA-mediated aggregation of Salmonella Typhimurium and enhance infection of the German cockroach vector

open access: yesMicrobiology spectrum, 2023
When Salmonella Typhimurium is ingested by German cockroaches, the bacteria replicate in the gut and persist for at least 7 d, enabling transmission in the feces.

Structure based High-Throughput Virtual Screening, Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Study of anticancer natural compounds against fimbriae (FimA) protein of Porphyromonas gingivalis in oral squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular diversity, 2023
Oral cancer is among the most common cancer in the world. Tobacco, alcohol, and viruses have been regarded as a well- known risk factors of OCC however, 15% of OSCC cases occurred each year without these known risk factors.

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

open access: yesScientific 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

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 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

open access: yesClinical 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Salmonella typhimurium fimbrial phase variation and FimA expression [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1996
Bacteria in a nonfimbriate phase because of continuous aeration of liquid cultures produce FimA in amounts similar to those produced by fimbriate bacteria. However, relatively low FimA production was observed in nonfimbriate-phase cultures obtained by growth on solid media or by anaerobic incubation.

Characterization of FimA inPorphyromonas gingivalisgenotype IV [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2012
It has been reported that a large majority of periodontitis patients carry organisms with either type II or IV-fimA, while type I is the most prevalent fimA genotype among Porphyromonas gingivalis-positive healthy adults. Here we report characterization of recombinant fimbrial protein (rFimA) produced in Escherichia coli from genotype IV-fimA.

Detection of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimA Type I Genotype in Gingivitis by Real-Time PCR–A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Published literature till date reveals a high prevalence of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimA type I genotype among healthy subjects. Quite a few studies have reported its prevalence also in periodontitis patients. Nevertheless incidence of
