[Leukotoxin and pulmonary injury].

Nihon Ronen Igakkai zasshi. Japanese journal of geriatrics, 1990
In spite of the development of various antibiotics, management of elderly patients with pneumonia remains an important problem. It is suggested that adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) often occur in elderly patients with pneumonia.

Identification and expression of the Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans leukotoxin gene

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1989
The leukotoxin produced by the oral bacterium Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans has been implicated in the pathogenesis of juvenile periodontitis. In order to elucidate the structure of the leukotoxin, molecular cloning of the leukotoxin gene was carried out. A DNA library of A. actinomycetemcomitans, strain JP2, was constructed by partial digestion

Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actimycetemcomitans leukotoxin and human periodontitis – A historic review with emphasis on JP2

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018
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).

Analysis of gene order data supports vertical inheritance of the leukotoxin operon and genome rearrangements in the 5' flanking region in genus Mannheimia

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The Mannheimia subclades belong to the same bacterial genus, but have taken divergent paths toward their distinct lifestyles. For example, M. haemolytica + M. glucosida are potential pathogens of the respiratory tract in the mammalian suborder

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.
