Natural Therapeutic Agents’ Efficacy in Preventive Strategies against the Periodontal Pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans: An In Vitro Study

Oral
Adolescent carriers of the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans JP2 genotype have an increased risk of developing periodontitis, due to the bacterium’s high leukotoxin (LtxA) production.

Usefulness of real time PCR for the differentiation and quantification of 652 and JP2 Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans genotypes in dental plaque and saliva

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2006
Background The aim of our study is to describe a fast molecular method, able to distinguish and quantize the two different genotypes (652 and JP2) of an important periodontal pathogen: Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans.

Description of Flavicapitulum gen. nov. and two new species of Marmoreocelis from thermal habitats in the Americas

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 1564-1578, October 2026.
Abstract Three novel taxa in the Coleofasciculales were observed in hot springs in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States, and in the Tabaconcito thermal springs on the Rio Tabacón in Costa Rica. Flavicapitulum vaporiphilum gen. et sp. nov. was located in a supported clade with Gracilinea and Marmoreocelis.

Knockout of the Intracellular Calcium Conducting Ion Channel Mitsugumin 23 (MG23) Protects Against Pressure Overload Induced Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Cardiac Dysfunction

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, 31 January 2026.
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

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 1394-1422, October 2025.
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 ...

Periodontal pathogens and cancer development

Periodontology 2000, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 112-149, October 2024.
Abstract Increasing evidence suggests a significant association between periodontal disease and the occurrence of various cancers. The carcinogenic potential of several periodontal pathogens has been substantiated in vitro and in vivo. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the diverse mechanisms employed by different periodontal pathogens in

Microbial diagnostics in periodontal diseases

Periodontology 2000, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 176-193, June 2024.
Abstract Microbial analytical methods have been instrumental in elucidating the complex microbial etiology of periodontal diseases, by shaping our understanding of subgingival community dynamics. Certain pathobionts can orchestrate the establishment of dysbiotic communities that can subvert the host immune system, triggering inflammation and tissue ...

Nutritional analysis of rice landraces from southern Odisha, India

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 1, Page 227-238, January 2024.
Rice landraces conserved by tribal farmers are important for their nutritional richness. In comparison with modern rice cultivars, landraces are rich in essential amino acids, various vitamins, anthocyanins, and flavonoids that can cure various noncommunicable diseases and metabolic disorders.
