Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis—Global efforts to untangle two complex diseases
Abstract Understanding the impact of oral health on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will inform how best to manage patients with both periodontitis and RA. This review seeks to provide an update on interventional and mechanistic investigations, including a brief summary of European Research programs investigating the link between periodontitis and RA. Recent

A Secreted Bacterial Peptidylarginine Deiminase Can Neutralize Human Innate Immune Defenses
The keystone oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis is associated with severe periodontitis. Intriguingly, this bacterium is known to secrete large amounts of an enzyme that converts peptidylarginine into citrulline residues.

Neutrophil‐based immunotherapy: A metabolic lens on mechanisms and therapeutic implications
TAN metabolic reprogramming critically contributes to tumour immune evasion. A 4‑Tier TAN‑MetaC classification framework is proposed, along with an overview of translational opportunities and bottlenecks for TAN metabolism‑targeted immunotherapies. Abstract Background Tumor‐associated neutrophils (TANs) serve as pivotal immune modulators in the tumor ...

The peptidylarginine deiminase gene is a conserved feature of Porphyromonas gingivalis [PDF]
AbstractPeriodontitis is an infective process that ultimately leads to destruction of the soft and hard tissues that support the teeth (the periodontium). Periodontitis has been proposed as a candidate risk factor for development of the autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The Impact of Oral‐Gut Microbiota Structure and Its Manipulation on RA Development and Management
(A) Schematic representation of oral–gut microbiota composition in health and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), highlighting the enrichment of beneficial microorganisms (green) under healthy conditions and the expansion of pathogenic microorganisms (orange) in RA‐associated dysbiosis.

Abnormal neutrophils and platelets in splenectomised β‐thalassaemia/haemoglobin E (HbE) disease contribute to neutrophil–platelet aggregation, leading to a high risk of thrombus formation. Activated platelets induce neutrophils to generate neutrophil extracellular trap (NETs) via the P‐selectin–P‐selectin glycoprotein ligand‐1 (PSGL1) pathway, which ...

Elucidating the contribution of gut‐organ axes will provide new insights for developing combined therapeutic strategies against sepsis‐associated multiple organ dysfunction. ABSTRACT Sepsis, a life‐threatening clinical syndrome precipitated by a maladaptive host response to infection, is associated with substantial morbidity and high mortality rates ...

Beyond Sequence: Posttranslational Remodeling of Antigens in Autoimmunity
ABSTRACT Autoimmune responses are often attributed to failed tolerance to self‐proteins, yet protein expression alone cannot explain why certain antigens dominate disease, why autoreactivity emerges under stress, or why specific HLA alleles shape risk.

ABAP: Antibody-based assay for peptidylarginine deiminase activity
Members of the family of peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs, EC 3.5.3.15) catalyze the posttranslational modification of peptidylarginine into peptidylcitrulline. Citrulline-containing epitopes have been shown to be major and specific targets of autoantibodies produced by rheumatoid arthritis patients. Recently, the citrullination of histone proteins by
