The Role of Viruses in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the presence and potential pathogenic role of viruses in periodontitis. Design: Narrative Review; Population: Patients with periodontitis; Exposure: Detection of viruses in oral samples (biopsies, saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, subgingival plaque, blood); Outcome: Viral prevalence, load ...

Using phage Lytic Enzymes to Control Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]

BMC Oral Health, 2006
Our laboratory has developed phage lytic enzymes to prevent infection by specifically destroying disease bacteria on mucous membranes and in blood. Enzymes specific for S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes have been developed to be used nasally and orally to control these organisms in environments such as hospitals and nursing homes to prevent or markedly ...

Oral Phageome as Potential Modulators of Periodontal Dysbiosis. A Systematic Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The oral phageome, comprising bacteriophages inhabiting the oral cavity, has been proposed as a potential modulator of periodontal health and disease. This systematic review synthesizes current evidence on interactions between bacteriophages, key periodontal bacteria, and the host in periodontitis.

Characterization of the Replication, Transfer, and Plasmid/Lytic Phage Cycle of the Streptomyces Plasmid-Phage pZL12 [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2010
ABSTRACT We report here the isolation and recombinational cloning of a large plasmid, pZL12, from endophytic Streptomyces sp. 9R-2. pZL12 comprises 90,435 bp, encoding 112 genes, 30 of which are organized in a large operon resembling bacteriophage genes. A replication locus ( repA )

Virocell Necromass Provides Limited Plant Nitrogen and Elicits Rhizosphere Metabolites That Affect Phage Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacteriophages impact soil bacteria through lysis, altering the availability of organic carbon and plant nutrients. However, the magnitude of nutrient uptake by plants from lysed bacteria remains unknown, partly because this process is challenging to investigate in the field.

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

FORMULATING PHAGE COCKTAILS AS ADJUVANT THERAPY IN CARBAPENEM-RESISTANT PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA

Open Respiratory Archives
Introduction: Phage-antibiotic synergy (PAS) results in bacterial killing beyond the efficacy of either agent alone. Although the main candidates for therapeutic PAS are lytic phages, temperate phages have been re-evaluated in light of PAS.

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.
