Activation of the Urokinase Plasminogen Activator/Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor System in Periodontitis: A Case–Control Study

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The plasminogen activating (PA) system has a multitude of functions such as wound healing, proteolytic activity, collagen degradation and cell growth, and the role of the urokinase plasminogen activator/urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPA/uPAR) system has been studied in many disease states.

Characterization of an autolysin mutant of Porphyoromonas gingivalis [PDF]

, 2005
P(論文)The results of a BLAST search for autolysin indicated that one ORF was indentified as an autolysin which had 39% homology (58/147 amino acids) with the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase like protein of Clostridium tetani.

Gene expression of Porphyromonas gingivalis ATCC 33277 when growing in an in vitro multispecies biofilm

, 2019
Background and objective: Porphyromonas gingivalis, an oral microorganism residing in the subgingival biofilm, may exert diverse pathogenicity depending on the presence of specific virulence factors, but its gene expression has not been completely ...

Periodontal Status of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Healthy Pregnant Women: A Case–Control Pilot Study

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims This cross‐sectional ‘case–control’ pilot study aimed to compare the size of periodontal wounds, periodontal status and total inflammatory burden between pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and non‐diabetic pregnant women. Methods Fifteen T1DM pregnant women and 15 healthy pregnant women were included. Clinical parameters (

Can Artificial Intelligence Be Utilised to Develop Point‐of‐Care Endodontic Microbiological Technologies?

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Primary or persistent endodontic disease is caused by microbial biofilms that irritate the pulp and periapical tissues. Extensive microbiological analyses of these biofilms and their constituent pathogens have revealed their diversity and complexity.

Myeloperoxidase activities (MPO) in homogenates of mouse lungs challenged with P. gingivalis, P. gingivalis plus pyocyanin, or pyocyanin alone.

, 2015
The MPO activity was expressed as % of control activity (mice inoculated with PBS only). The data points represent the mean ± SD from two independent MPO assays performed for each group (PBS+PCN, P. gingivalis, and P. gingivalis+PCN).

Shotgun Metagenomic Analysis Reveals Taxonomic and Functional Transitions in the Salivary Microbiome During Periodontal Disease Progression

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterise multi‐kingdom salivary microbiome profiles across clinically defined periodontal states and identify stage‐specific taxonomic and functional alterations using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Materials and Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 204 adults (mean age 40.3 ± 7.6 years) from the SECRETO study (NCT01934725 ...

Distinct Microbial and Host Proteome Signatures Relate to Proteolytic Activity in Gingival Crevicular Fluid in an Exploratory Study of Patients With Periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Risk assessment tools for periodontitis lack sufficient precision to predict disease progression. The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate proteolytic activity (PA) in gingival crevicular fluid in relation to clinically assessed progression risk, microbial community composition and host proteome. Materials and Methods Samples were
