The Role of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in Periodontitis: A Potential Therapeutic Target. [PDF]

open access: yesImmun Inflamm Dis
This review focuses on the pivotal role and specific mechanisms of periodontal tissue destruction by excess ROS, which mediate signaling pathways such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK), as well as the activation of OS response‐associated proteins, including thioredoxin‐interacting protein (TXNIP) and ...

Prevalence of systemic immunoreactivity to Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans leukotoxin in relation to the incidence of myocardial infarction

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2011
Background Chronic infections and associated inflammatory markers are suggested risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin (IL)-1β, is suggested to play a role in the regulation of local inflammatory ...

A three-way comparative genomic analysis of Mannheimia haemolytica isolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Mannhemia haemolytica is a Gram-negative bacterium and the principal etiological agent associated with bovine respiratory disease complex. They transform from a benign commensal to a deadly pathogen, during stress such as viral infection and ...

Monoclonal antibodies to leukotoxin of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1985
Hybridoma cell lines which produce monoclonal antibodies to a leukotoxin from Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans were prepared. The monoclonal antibodies were selected for their ability to neutralize the cytotoxic activity of the leukotoxin and recognize the toxin on nitrocellulose blots. The antibodies belonged to either the immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1)

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Leukotoxin: A Powerful Tool with Capacity to Cause Imbalance in the Host Inflammatory Response

open access: yesToxins, 2011
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans has been described as a member of the indigenous oral microbiota of humans, and is involved in the pathology of periodontitis and various non-oral infections. This bacterium selectively kills human leukocytes through

A fast and simple assay to quantify bacterial leukotoxin activity

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016
Background: Mannheimia haemolytica is the primary bacterial pathogen in causing bovine respiratory disease with tremendous annual losses in the cattle industry. The leukotoxin from M. haemolytica is the predominant virulence factor.
