Synthesis of Sphingolipids Impacts Survival of Porphyromonas gingivalis and the Presentation of Surface Polysaccharides [PDF]

, 2016
Bacteria alter the biophysical properties of their membrane lipids in response to environmental cues, such as shifts in pH or temperature. In essence, lipid composition determines membrane structure, which in turn influences many basic functions, such as

Identification of Dipeptidyl-Peptidase (DPP)5 and DPP7 in Porphyromonas endodontalis, Distinct from Those in Porphyromonas gingivalis [PDF]

, 2014
Dipeptidyl peptidases (DPPs) that liberate dipeptides from the N-terminal end of oligopeptides are crucial for the growth of Porphyromonas species, anaerobic asaccharolytic gram negative rods that utilize amino acids as energy sources.

Are metacaspases caspases? [PDF]

, 2007
The identification of caspases as major regulators of apoptotic cell death in animals initiated a quest for homologous peptidases in other kingdoms. With the discovery of metacaspases in plants, fungi, and protozoa, this search had apparently reached its

Alzheimer's Disease-Like Pathology Triggered by Porphyromonas gingivalis in Wild Type Rats Is Serotype Dependent [PDF]

, 2020
Periodontal disease is a disease of tooth-supporting tissues. It is a chronic disease with inflammatory nature and infectious etiology produced by a dysbiotic subgingival microbiota that colonizes the gingivodental sulcus.

Matrix Metalloproteinase‐8 as an Inflammatory and Prevention Biomarker in Periodontal and Peri‐Implant Diseases

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Levels of and especially the degree of activation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP‐8) in oral fluids (i.e., saliva, mouth rinse, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri‐implantitis sulcular fluid (PISF)) increase to pathologically elevated levels in the periodontal and peri‐implant diseases.

Identification and Characterization of Prokaryotic Dipeptidyl-Peptidase 5 from Porphyromonas gingivalis [PDF]

, 2014
Porphyromonas gingivalis, a Gram-negative asaccharolytic anaerobe, is one of the major causative organisms of chronic periodontitis. The bacterium utilizes amino acids as energy and carbon sources, and incorporates them mainly as dipeptides. Therefore, a
