Abstract Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actimycetemcomitans (Aa) is a gram‐negative bacterium that colonizes the human oral cavity and is causative agent for localized aggressive (juvenile) periodontitis (AgP). In the middle of 1990s, a specific JP2 clone of belonging to the cluster of serotype b strains of Aa with highly leukotoxicity (leukotoxin ...

Periodontal pathogens and cancer development
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

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 ...

Microbial diagnostics in periodontal diseases
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 ...

Non-Surgical Therapy Reduces Presence of JP2 Clone in Localized Aggressive Periodontitis
Previous studies have provided substantial evidence on the association of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), and its highly leukotoxic JP2 genotype, with localized aggressive periodontitis (LAP).

Nutritional analysis of rice landraces from southern Odisha, India
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.

Frequency of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotypes, clone JP2 and cytolethal distending toxin (cdtABC) genes in isolates from patients with periodontitis [PDF]
El Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans ha sido asociado a enfermedad periodontal, particularmente a periodontitis agresiva. La leucotoxina y la toxina de distensión citoletal, son dos importantes factores de virulencia de A.actinomycetemcomitans, cuya ...
