Screen for Leukotoxin Mutants in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans : Genes of the Phosphotransferase System Are Required for Leukotoxin Biosynthesis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aggregatibacter (formerly Actinobacillus ) actinomycetemcomitans is a pathogen that causes localized aggressive periodontitis and extraoral infections including infective endocarditis. Recently, we reported that A.

Sharing more than friendship - nasal colonization with coagulase-positive staphylococci (CPS) and co-habitation aspects of dogs and their owners [PDF]
Background Since the relationship between dogs and their owners has changed, and dogs moved from being working dogs to family members in post-industrial countries, we hypothesized that zoonotic transmission of opportunistic pathogens like coagulase ...

Abstract Oral dysbiosis contributes to Alzheimer's disease (AD) by promoting neuroinflammation. Pathobionts such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Fusobacterium nucleatum release virulence factors that induce amyloid beta aggregation and tau hyperphosphorylation, while the loss of commensals like Streptococcus salivarius and ...

The gut microbiota is capable of secreting bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs), which can carry cytoplasmic components, including enzymes and nucleic acids. BEVs have the ability to penetrate the intestinal epithelial barrier, enter the circulatory system and ultimately reach the heart.
