Probiotic consumption reduces alveolar bone loss and kidney damage in pregnant rats with experimental periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) is a probiotic bacterial strain with immunomodulatory properties. Its benefits have been observed in healthy and systemically compromised animals with periodontitis (PD). Our objective was to investigate the local and systemic effects of the systemic administration of B.

Amlodipine induced Gingival Overgrowth

Journal of Nepalese Society of Periodontology and Oral Implantology, 2018
Gingival overgrowth caused by drug is a well-documented unwanted side effect and mostly caused by Nifedipine. Newer generation calcium channel blocker, amlodipine, has been used with the increasing frequency to overcome the adverse effect of first and second generation dihydropyridine derivatives of Calcium Chanel Blocker.

Calcium Channel Blocker Induced Gingival Overgrowth [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2002
Gingival overgrowth occurs with phenytoin, cyclosporin, and calcium antagonists. It can be disfiguring and painful. The prevalence of gingival overgrowth with the use of calcium antagonists may be as high as 38%. The prevalence with nifedipine may be greater than with other calcium blockers.

Dasatinib and quercetin prevent alveolar bone loss in aged mice

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Recent findings have associated alveolar bone loss (ABL) with the presence of senescent cells. Aging and the accumulation of senescent cells are associated with a pro‐inflammatory environment which may exacerbate tissue damage.

Amlodipine induced gingival enlargement

Journal of Oral Research and Review, 2016
Drug-induced gingival overgrowth or enlargement is an abnormal growth of the gingiva due to an adverse drug reaction in patients treated with anticonvulsants, immunosuppressants, and calcium channel blockers (CCBs).

Periodontitis during pregnancy: The effect on the gut microbiome and intestinal inflammation

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis has been epidemiologically associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, but causality remains difficult to establish in humans due to confounding factors. This study uses a controlled murine model to examine the effects of experimentally induced periodontitis on the composition of the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal

Curcumin inhibits TGF-β1-induced connective tissue growth factor expression through the interruption of Smad2 signaling in human gingival fibroblasts

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2018
Background/Purpose: Many fibrotic processes are associated with an increased level of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). TGF-β1 can increase synthesis of matrix proteins and enhance secretion of protease inhibitors, resulting in matrix accumulation.

miR-200a inhibits proliferation rate in drug-induced gingival overgrowth through targeting ZEB2.

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association = Taiwan yi zhi, 2020
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Gingival overgrowth can occur as a result of poor oral hygiene or a side effect of taking certain medications, such as cyclosporine A (CsA).

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma: Diagnosis and treatment

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Vascular endothelial growth factor‐C (VEGF‐C)/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor‐3 (VEGFR‐3) and angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2)/tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin‐like and EGF‐like domain 2 (TIE2) signaling pathways play an important role in lymphangiogenesis.

Congenital generalized hypertrichosis: The skin as a clue to complex malformation syndromes [PDF]

, 2015
Hypertrichosis is defined as an excessive growth in body hair beyond the normal variation compared with individuals of the same age, race and sex and affecting areas not predominantly androgen-dependent. The term hirsutism is usually referred to patients,
