Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Saliva Liquid Biopsy for Detection of Oral and Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This Review summarizes and discusses the biological foundations and major classes of salivary biomarkers, outlines collection methods and analytical protocols for saliva‐based liquid biopsy, and technological convergences driven by multi‐omics approaches, artificial intelligence, and point‐of‐care devices in the application of oral and systemic ...

The isolation, purification, tissue localization and identification of a glycoprotein found in the crude mucus gel of patients with carcinoma of the stomach [PDF]

, 2008
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 101-138).The thin layer of crude mucus lining the human gastric mucosa protects the delicate gastric epithelium from the high shear forces associated with digestion. Gastric mucus is composed largely of water (>

Clinical risk factors and predictive value of thin-section CT for bronchial mucus plugs in pediatric mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Bronchial mucus plugs in children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) are often associated with severe clinical presentations, but diagnosing this condition currently depends largely on invasive bronchoscopy.

Gastric Output of Pancreatic Secretory Trypsin-Inhibitor Is Increased by Misoprostol [PDF]

, 1991
Pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor (PSTI) is a potent protease inhibitor that also has growth promoting activity. It has recently been identified in the foveolar cells of the stomach, which secrete mucus.

Airway epithelial heterogeneity and mucus plugging in asthmatic bronchioles

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine
Abstract Rationale Bronchiolar dysfunction is associated with asthma exacerbations and poor symptom control. However, the molecular pathophysiology of asthmatic bronchiolar disease is poorly defined.
