Matrix Metalloproteinases in Periodontal and Peri‐Implant Diseases: Contribution to Their Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) across the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapeutics of periodontal and peri‐implant diseases. Microbial and host stimuli trigger MMP activation leading to extracellular matrix breakdown, point‐of‐care aMMP‐8 detection aids diagnosis, and adjunctive or AI‐assisted ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola Mixed Microbial Infection in a Rat Model of Periodontal Disease

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola are periodontal pathogens that express virulence factors associated with the pathogenesis of periodontitis. In this paper we tested the hypothesis that P. gingivalis and T. denticola are synergistic in terms of virulence; using a model of mixed microbial infection in rats.

Enteric bacterial proteases in inflammatory bowel disease- pathophysiology and clinical implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Numerous reports have identified a dysbiosis in the intestinal microbiota in patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), yet the mechanism(s) in which this complex microbial community initiates or perpetuates inflammation remains unclear ...

Nanoparticles in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry: From Mechanisms to Clinical Applications

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Nanotechnology holds significant promise in improving dental care, yet there is a need for more reliable clinical studies to validate its effectiveness and safety. ABSTRACT Recent advances in nanotechnology are reshaping the landscape of periodontology and implant dentistry, particularly through the application of nanoparticles (NPs).

The dysregulation of innate immunity by Porphyromonas gingivalis in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 328-348, March 2026.
Abstract The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains under active debate. In this perspective, we explore the hypothesis that a primarily infection‐caused chronic dysregulation and weakening of human innate immunity via the underexpression, degradation, and inactivation of innate immune proteins necessary for direct antimicrobial effects and ...

HPV-related and unrelated oropharyngeal cancer : Contribution of oral pathobionts Treponema denticola and Porphyromonas gingivalis to carcinogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) has increased in western countries in the last decades, whereas the number of HPV unrelated OPSCC cases has remained stable or even declined.

Oral SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection and Risk for Long Covid

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, Volume 35, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT SARS‐CoV‐2 is an oral pathogen that infects and replicates in mucosal and salivary epithelial cells, contributing to oral post‐acute sequelae COVID‐19 (PASC) and other oral and non‐oral pathologies. While pre‐existing inflammatory oral diseases provides a conducive environment for the virus, acute infection and persistence of SARS‐CoV‐2 can ...

Development of low-cost and portable detection platforms for bacterial detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In this study, a diagnostic platform for detecting pathogens, including Listeria monocytogenes, E. coli O157:H11, Staphylococcus aureus, Legionella spp., P. gingivalis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, has been developed. Fluorogenic substrates were used as a

Insights Into the Mechanism of Action of Chlorhexidine on Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Chlorhexidine (CHX) remains the most effective antiseptic in periodontal therapy, multiple reports have identified ultrastructural antibacterial effects of CHX on oral bacteria, however, little is known about its molecular mechanism of action on Porphyromonas gingivalis, an important pathobiont directly associated with the pathogenesis of periodontitis.

Non‐canonical amino acid bioincorporation into antimicrobial peptides and its challenges

open access: yesJournal of Peptide Science, Volume 30, Issue 6, June 2024.
Bioincorporation of non‐canonical amino acids (ncAAs) as a method of integration into antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is an emerging field geared towards developing solid‐phase synthesis as a green, cheaper, and scalable alternative for commercialisation of AMPs.
