The dental plaque biofilm matrix

Periodontology 2000, 2021
The extracellular matrix is a critical component of microbial biofilms, such as dental plaque, maintaining the spatial arrangement of cells and coordinating cellular functions throughout the structure. The extracellular polymeric substances that comprise

Plaque formation and isolation of pure lines with poliomyelitis virus [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1954
Plaques have been produced with the three types of poliomyelitis viruses on monolayer tissue cultures of monkey kidney and monkey testis. The number of plaques was proportional to the concentration of the virus.

Coronary artery plaque characteristics and treatment with biologic therapy in severe psoriasis: results from a prospective observational study

Cardiovascular Research, 2019
AIMS The use of biologic therapy has increased over the past decade well beyond primary autoimmune diseases. Indeed, a recent trial using an anti-IL-1beta antibody reduced second myocardial infarction (MI) in those who have had MI. Psoriasis is a chronic

Inflammation during the life cycle of the atherosclerotic plaque.

Cardiovascular Research, 2021
Inflammation orchestrates each stage of the life cycle of atherosclerotic plaques. Indeed, inflammatory mediators likely link many traditional and emerging risk factors with atherogenesis.

Biologics May Prevent Cardiovascular Events in Rheumatoid Arthritis by Inhibiting Coronary Plaque Formation and Stabilizing High-Risk Lesions. [PDF]

, 2020
ObjectiveTo evaluate whether biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) decrease cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and whether biologic DMARDs might have a beneficial effect on coronary plaque formation or ...

Quantification of atherosclerotic plaque volume in coronary arteries by computed tomographic angiography in subjects with and without diabetes. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is considered a cardiovascular risk factor. The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence and volume of coronary artery plaque in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) vs. those without DM.MethodsThis study recruited

Characterization of bacteriophage communities and CRISPR profiles from dental plaque. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundDental plaque is home to a diverse and complex community of bacteria, but has generally been believed to be inhabited by relatively few viruses.

Atherosclerotic carotid plaque composition: a 3T and 7T MRI-histology correlation study [PDF]

, 2016
Background and Purpose Carotid artery atherosclerotic plaque composition may influence plaque stability and risk of thromboembolic events, and non-invasive plaque imaging may therefore permit risk stratification for clinical management.

Intraneuronal β-Amyloid Aggregates, Neurodegeneration, and Neuron Loss in Transgenic Mice with Five Familial Alzheimer's Disease Mutations: Potential Factors in Amyloid Plaque Formation

Journal of Neuroscience, 2006
Mutations in the genes for amyloid precursor protein (APP) and presenilins (PS1, PS2) increase production of β-amyloid 42 (Aβ42) and cause familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD).

Microbial differences between dental plaque and historic dental calculus are related to oral biofilm maturation stage [PDF]

, 2019
Dental calculus, calcified oral plaque biofilm, contains microbial and host biomolecules that can be used to study historic microbiome communities and host responses.
