Intraspecies Variability Affects Heterotypic Biofilms of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia: Evidences of Strain-Dependence Biofilm Modulation by Physical Contact and by Released Soluble Factors. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
It is well known that strain and virulence diversity exist within the population structure of Porphyromonas gingivalis. In the present study we investigate intra- and inter-species variability in biofilm formation of Porphyromonas gingivalis and partners

Strategies for the inhibition of gingipains for the potential treatment of periodontitis and associated systemic diseases [PDF]

, 2014
Gingipains are the major virulence factors of Porphyromonas gingivalis, the main periodontopathogen. It is expected that inhibition of gingipain activity in vivo could prevent or slow down the progression of adult periodontitis.

The effect of non‐surgical periodontal treatment on Dickkopf‐1 and secreted Frizzled‐Related Protein 5 levels

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Recent advancements in bone tissue biomarker research have identified 2 promising molecules: Dickkopf‐1 and secreted Frizzled‐Related Protein 5. This study aims to evaluate the levels of these biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid in periodontal health, gingivitis, and periodontitis and to assess the effects of non‐surgical ...

Importance of heterogeneity in Porhyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide lipid A in tissue specific inflammatory signaling [PDF]

, 2018
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Porphyromonas gingivalis exists in at least two known forms, O-LPS and A-LPS. A-LPS shows heterogeneity in which two isoforms designated LPS1435/1449 and LPS1690 appear responsible for tissue specific immune signalingpathways
