Microbiota in Human Periodontal Abscess Revealed by 16S rDNA Sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Periodontal abscess is an oral infective disease caused by various kinds of bacteria. We aimed to characterize the microbiota composition of periodontal abscesses by metagenomic methods and compare it to that of the corresponding pocket and healthy ...

Development of Oral Care Chip, a novel device for quantitative detection of the oral microbiota associated with periodontal disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Periodontal disease, the most prevalent infectious disease in the world, is caused by biofilms formed in periodontal pockets. No specific bacterial species that can cause periodontitis alone has been found in any study to date.

Sulfate‐reducing bacteria in the periodontal pocket [PDF]

open access: yesOral Microbiology and Immunology, 1995
This report is the first to describe the occurrence of sulfate‐reducing bacteria in the human mouth. Samples of subgingival dental plaque were examined for the presence of sulfate‐reducing bacteria. Using enrichment cultures, sulfate‐reducing bacteria were detected in 25 (58%) of 43 individuals, and in 39 (48%) of the 82 samples.

Changes in Periodontal Parameters and Microbiome Composition of Periodontal Pocket in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Diseases Receiving Targeted Anti-Cytokine Therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Periodontitis is associated with systemic chronic inflammatory diseases. There is limited evidence on the influence of anti-cytokine therapies on the periodontal condition and microbiome in the tooth pocket of such patients, so the aim of this study was ...

RANKL expression in periodontal disease : where does RANKL come from? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease characterized by periodontal pocket formation and alveolar bone resorption. Periodontal bone resorption is induced by osteoclasts and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) which is an essential ...

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage
