The Effect of Subacute Oral Folic Acid Treatment on Growth of Porphyromonas gulae in Dogs

Journal of Veterinary Dentistry, 2023
Periodontitis is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases in humans and animals. It is a multifactorial disease resulting in attachment loss and tooth loss. Therefore, preventive dentistry, such as daily teeth cleaning or providing dental chews from puppyhood is essential.

Identification and molecular characterization of Porphyromonas gulae fimA types among cat isolates

Veterinary Microbiology, 2019
Porphyromonas gulae, a Gram-negative black-pigmented anaerobe, is one of several major periodontal pathogens of animals. P. gulae isolates from dogs have been classified into three genotypes based on a 41-kDa filamentous appendage (FimA) on the cell surface, which is closely related to virulence in periodontal disease. However, other specific bacterial

Green tea catechins inhibit Porphyromonas gulae LPS-induced inflammatory responses in human gingival epithelial cells

Journal of Oral Biosciences, 2022
To determine the anti-inflammatory effects of green tea catechins in immortalized human gingival epithelial cells (Ca9-22) stimulated with Porphyromonas gulae lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Ca9-22 cells were incubated with P. gulae LPS (10 μg/ml) with or without green tea catechins, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCg), epigallocatechin (EGC), epicatechin-3 ...

Role of fimbriae variations in Porphyromonas gulae biofilm formation

Journal of Oral Biosciences
Porphyromonas gulae is a major causative agent of periodontal disease in companion animals that possesses various virulence factors, including fimbriae, lipopolysaccharides, and proteases. P. gulae fimbriae are classified into three genotypes (A, B, and C) based on their nucleotide sequences.

Short communication: Distribution of Porphyromonas gulae fimA genotypes in oral specimens from dogs with mitral regurgitation

Research in Veterinary Science, 2015
Porphyromonas gulae, a suspected pathogen for periodontal disease in dogs, possesses approximately 41-kDa fimbriae (FimA) that are encoded by the fimA gene. In the present study, the association of fimA genotypes with mitral regurgitation (MR) was investigated.

Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Quantification of Periodontal Pathogenic Bacteria ( Porphyromonas gulae , Porphyromonas gingivalis , Tannerella forsythia , and Treponema denticola ) in Dogs

Journal of Veterinary Dentistry
The present study investigated the molecular presence of 4 species of pathogenic periodontal bacteria (Porphyromonas gulae, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, and Treponema denticola) using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 230 household dogs with or without gingivitis, dental plaque and/or calculus.

Suppurative otitis and ascending meningoencephalitis associated with Bacteroides tectus and Porphyromonas gulae in a captive Parma wallaby (Macropus parma) with toxoplasmosis.

Journal of veterinary diagnostic investigation : official publication of the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians, Inc, 2015
A 6-year-old female Parma wallaby (Macropus parma) at a zoo in California developed acute ataxia and left-sided circling. Despite intensive care, clinical signs progressed to incoordination and prostration, and the animal was euthanized. At necropsy, the left tympanic cavity was filled with homogeneous suppurative exudate that extended into the cranium

Glycyrrhizic acid suppresses inflammation and reduces the increased glucose levels induced by the combination of Porphyromonas gulae and ligature placement in diabetic model mice

International Immunopharmacology, 2019
Diabetic patients are at an increased risk of developing severe and progressive periodontitis. Periodontal disease also increases the severity of diabetes by enhancing insulin resistance. Therefore, the regulation of periodontal inflammation in diabetic patients may contribute to the control of both diseases.
