Detection and Characterization of Prevotella Intermedia and Its In Vitro Susceptibility to Selected Antimicrobial Agents in Chronic Periodontitis and Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Periodontal disease has been reported to play a causative role in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which may add to the various risk factors associated with coronary heart disease.

The search for conjugative transposon in rumen bacterium Prevotella bryantii B14

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2009
Only few plasmids and bacteriophages have been described to date in ruminal prevotella strains, therefore it appears plausible that the genetic exchange in these organisms must exploit other routes.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Cleavage of CD14 and LBP by a protease from Prevotella intermedia [PDF]

Archives of Microbiology, 2003
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease caused by subgingival microorganisms and their components, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Responses of the host to LPS are mediated by CD14 and LPS-binding protein (LBP). In this study, it was determined that proteases from a periodontal pathogen, Prevotella intermedia, cleave CD14 and LBP, and thereby ...

Susceptibility of some oral microorganisms to chlorhexidine and paramonochlorophenol Susceptibilidade de alguns microrganismos orais frente à clorexidina e ao paramonoclorofenol

Brazilian Oral Research, 2004
Since the use of antimicrobial agents is required in endodontic therapies, this study aimed at determining the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of chlorhexidine digluconate and paramonochlorophenol (PMC) against microorganisms commonly found in ...

First Case of Intracranial Mycotic Aneurysm Caused by Prevotella intermedia Associated with Chronic Sinusitis in a Korean Adult

Case Reports in Neurology, 2020
Intracranial infection caused by anaerobic bacteria is rare, and it is difficult to identify absolute anaerobes in the clinical laboratory, especially when the bacterial load is low.

Periodontitis and Diabetes: Mechanistic Evidence of a Circular Relationship

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms that connect periodontitis to diabetes (and vice versa) and that influence disease susceptibility, progression and response to treatment. ABSTRACT The circular relationship between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus is one of the most established oral‐systemic links.

Binding and degradation of lactoferrin byPorphyromonas gingivalis Prevotella intermediaandPrevotella nigrescens [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 1996
The ability of laboratory and clinical strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia and Prevotella nigrescens to bind and to degrade lactoferrin (Lf) has been assessed. Lf bound readily to whole cells of each species apparently via high-affinity site and one or more low-affinity sites. P. gingivalis showed a lower affinity for Lf than the

Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis—Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are linked via the two‐hit model whereby early periodontal inflammation can lead to autoantibody production capable of interacting with inflamed synovial tissues. Subsequent systemic inflammation can exacerbate the periodontal inflammatory response and bacterial dysbiosis leading to further autoantibody production
