Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Molecular analysis of Human Herpes Virus 8 and associated lesions
This thesis looks at the bio-pathways of HHV8 through the transformation of endothelial cell lines. This was performed in two separate but mutually contributing experiments. First, endothelial cell lines were infected using purified HHV8 virus, which was obtained from cultured BC-3 cell lines, derived from an effusion lymphoma.
