Periodontal Pathogens and Neuropsychiatric Health

Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2020
Increasing evidence incriminates low-grade inflammation in cardiovascular, metabolic diseases, and neuropsychiatric clinical conditions, all important causes of morbidity and mortality. One of the upstream and modifiable precipitants and perpetrators of inflammation is chronic periodontitis, a polymicrobial infection with Porphyromonas gingivalis (P ...

Tetracycline Resistance in Periodontal Pathogens

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1993
Antimicrobial agents are used in combination with debridement to eliminate putative periodontal pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, from diseased tissues. The most frequently used antimicrobial agents are the tetracyclines.

Molecular analysis of periodontal pathogens

Archives of Oral Biology, 1990
Both Bacteroides gingivalis and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans have been implicated in the destruction of periodontal tissues. To understand better the role putative virulence factors from the two bacterial species may play in an infection, the collagenase gene from Bact. gingivalis and the leucotoxin gene from A.

CCL28 Effects on Periodontal Pathogens

Journal of Periodontology, 2007
Background: Chemokines are small proteins that signal to and attract cells of the immune system; they are vital components in the modulation of immunity and wound healing. A newly described chemokine was reported to have antibacterial and antifungal activity.

Pathogenicity of periodontal pathogens during pregnancy

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2005
Objective: Periodontal disease may cause several complications of pregnancy, including fetal death. The purpose of this study was to investigate in sheep the effects of the intra-amniotic injection of lipopolysaccharide from 3 periodontopathic organisms and to compare these effects with those resulting from similar injection of Escherichia coli ...

Periodontal Pathogen Sialometabolic Activity in Periodontitis

2020
Periodontitis is a common bacterially induced inflammatory condition that damages the tooth-supporting apparatus and negatively impacts the systemic health. It affects over 700 million people worldwide with an estimated economic burden totaling to $442 billion annually.

The gingival immune response to periodontal pathogens in juvenile periodontitis

Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 1994
A gingival explant culture system was utilized to evaluate the reactivity of local immunoglobulins produced by juvenile periodontitis tissue. Gingival explant culture supernatant fluids were screened, via a standardized dot‐immunobinding assay, for antibodies reactive to: Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella ...

Prevalence of periodontal pathogens as predictor of the evolution of periodontal status

Odontology, 2016
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the prevalence of Porphyromonas gingivalis, its fimA genotypes, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Tannerella forsythia, and Treponema denticola and the evolution of periodontal health.

Periodontal conditions during the pregnancy associated with periodontal pathogens

Journal of Investigative and Clinical Dentistry, 2012
AbstractAimTo describe the bacterial associations in the periodontal pockets of pregnant women and to correlate the presence of Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia (T. forsythia), Treponema denticola (T. denticola), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, and Porphyromona gingivalis (P.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF PERIODONTAL PATHOGENS IN PERIODONTITIS AND GINGIVITIS.

Journal of biological regulators and homeostatic agents, 2015
Periodontal tissues surround the teeth and provide their attachment. Periodontal diseases include a mild and reversible form named gingivitis and periodontitis that is the main cause of tooth loss in adults. Gingivitis, that affects gums and coronal junctional epithelium, as well as periodontitis, that is characterized by loss of connective tissue ...
