Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis—Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are linked via the two‐hit model whereby early periodontal inflammation can lead to autoantibody production capable of interacting with inflamed synovial tissues. Subsequent systemic inflammation can exacerbate the periodontal inflammatory response and bacterial dysbiosis leading to further autoantibody production

Design and Immunogenicity of a Nanoparticle Combination Vaccine for Salmonella in Poultry

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salmonella enterica serovars (Salmonella) are common causes of bacterial gastroenteritis (salmonellosis) often associated with the consumption of poultry products. The control of Salmonella in broiler chickens is difficult because colonized birds may carry this pathogen undetected into the slaughterhouse and cause meat contamination.

Role of Mfa5 in Expression of Mfa1 Fimbriae in Porphyromonas gingivalis

, 2016
Fimbriae are protein-based filamentous appendages that protrude from the bacterial cell surface and facilitate host adhesion. Two types of fimbriae, FimA and Mfa1, of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis are responsible for adherence to ...

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

Structure and function relationships of the binding of β- and ɑ-galactosylated oligosaccharides to K88 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

, 2018
Chitosan-oligosaccharides (COS) are suitable acceptors for β-galactosidase, and galactosylated-COS prevent adhesion of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) K88 to porcine erythrocytes.

From mouth to brain: Linking periodontal and peri‐implant dysbiosis to systemic inflammation and neuropathology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background/Aim Growing evidence suggests that imbalances occurring within the human microbiota and deregulation of the host immune response may play a significant role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Materials and Methods A comprehensive narrative review of the latest experimental, clinical, and epidemiological insights was ...

Peri‐implantitis and systemic inflammation: Current evidence, biological plausibility, and research gaps

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a biofilm‐associated inflammatory condition characterized by peri‐implant mucosal inflammation and progressive bone loss. The prevalence of peri‐implantitis continues to rise among patients with dental implants. Although peri‐implantitis and periodontitis share similar inflammatory phenotypes, histopathological ...

Targeting aminopeptidase N, a newly identified receptor for F4ac fimbriae, enhances the intestinal mucosal immune response

, 2012
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are a major cause of diarrhea in human and animal. In piglets, ETEC having F4 fimbriae (F4(+) ETEC) induce severe diarrhea, dependent on the presence of receptors for F4 (F4R). In this study, porcine aminopeptidase

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.
