Abstract Aim To evaluate subgingival instrumentation (SI) in periodontitis stage III and IV, grade B and C with systemic antibiotics (AB) only after detection of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. Materials and Methods Patients of the Department of Periodontology of Goethe University Frankfurt/Germany were screened for microbiological testing ...

Abstract Molecular epidemiology studies are essential to refine our understanding of migrations of phytopathogenic bacteria, the major determining factor in their emergence, and to understand the factors that shape their population structure. Microsatellite and minisatellite typing are useful techniques for deciphering the population structure of ...

Abstract The reported prevalence of periodontitis in children and adolescents varies considerably between populations globally. This cross‐sectional study compares clinical and microbiological findings on 83 Somali immigrants and 96 non‐Somali children aged 10–17 years old living in Trollhättan, Sweden. The clinical examination included registration of

Abstract Polyamines are ubiquitous polycationic molecules that are present in all prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and they serve as important modulators of cell growth, stress, and cell proliferation. Polyamines are present at high concentrations in the periodontal pocket and could potentially affect the stress response of periodontal bacteria to ...

Microbial transitions from health to disease
Abstract Recent advances in our understanding of the microbial populations that colonize the human mouth, their acquisition, interdependency, and coevolution with the host, bring a different perspective to the mechanisms underpinning the maintenance of periodontal health and the development of disease.

Objective and MethodsThe Gram-negative bacterium, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is associated with periodontitis affecting young individuals. The geographic dissemination of the highly leukotoxic JP2 genotype of serotype b of this species was ...

We document the population history and genetic history of the common freshwater snail Sinotaia quadrata in Japan and continental East Asia. Natural migration in the ancient period and artificial introduction in the recent period suggest that the population distribution is affected by both the geohistory of East Asia and the history of human expansion ...

AbstractAimTo perform a cross‐sectional study on the carrier frequency of JP2 and non‐JP2 genotypes of A. actinomycetemcomitans in Moroccan school children and relate the presence of these genotypes to the periodontal status in the mixed dentition.Material and MethodsA plaque sample from 513 children was analysed by PCR. JP2 genotype‐positive subjects (

In an angiotensin‐II‐induced pressure overload induced heart failure mouse model, expression of MG23 is increased. Knockout of Mg23 protected hearts against Angiotensin‐II ‐induced cardiac hypertrophy. Mg23‐KO mice also displayed a marked decrease in left ventricular fibrosis and had normal cardiac functioning compared to wild type animals.

Four novel taxa of cyanobacteria from a unique thermal cave habitat in Vromoner Canyon, Albania
Abstract Thermal and cave habitats on nearly all continents have been a substantial source of new cyanobacterial genotypes and morphotypes that expanded with the dawn of the era of molecular phylogenetics. In this study, we investigated the cyanobacterial flora of an extreme habitat of recently discovered caves with sulfur‐rich thermal springs, using ...
