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 (

SummaryIt was postulated that the highly virulent JP2 genotype of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans may possess a constellation of distinct virulence determinants not found in non‐JP2 genotypes. This study compared the genome content and the transcriptome of the serotype b JP2 genotype and the closely related serotype b non‐JP2 genotype of A ...

Abstract Aim The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of unstimulated saliva in detecting Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and its JP2 genotype, and to compare the saliva, subgingival and mucosa membrane occurrence of this periopathogen in patients diagnosed with advanced periodontitis.
