Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

MinD-like ATPase FlhG synchronizes flagellation and cell division in spirochetes
Spirochetes are evolutionarily distinct bacteria defined by their spiral morphology, unique means of motility, and periplasmic flagella (PFs). Because these flagella reside within the periplasm and are mechanically integrated with the cell body, their ...

Visualization of Spirochetes by Labeling Membrane Proteins With Fluorescent Biarsenical Dyes
Numerous methods exist for fluorescently labeling proteins either as direct fusion proteins (GFP, RFP, YFP, etc.—attached to the protein of interest) or utilizing accessory proteins to produce fluorescence (SNAP-tag, CLIP-tag), but the significant ...

Long‐term stability of conventional non‐regenerative periodontal treatment for furcation defects
Abstract Background Furcation involvement (FI) in multi‐rooted teeth poses significant challenges in periodontal therapy due to complex anatomy and difficulty in achieving effective maintenance. FI is associated with increased periodontal destruction, especially in sites with narrow furcation entrances and deep root concavities.

Detection of spirochetes by immunohistochemistry in tissues from MyD88−/− but not WT mice.
In the epididymis (A–C; 21 days post inoculation (DPI)), spirochetes are present in large numbers in inflamed foci of MyD88−/− mice (arrow, A) and occasionally in non-inflamed regions (arrow, B).

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Spirochetes in Ixodes Dammini and Mammals from Connecticut [PDF]
Spirochetes were observed in the midguts of 35% of 147 motile Ixodes dammini from three locations in Lyme and East Haddam, Connecticut. Positive ticks were removed from eastern chipmunks (Tamias striatus), raccoons (Procyon lotor), white-footed mice ...

The cross-talk between spirochetal lipoproteins and immunity
Spirochetal diseases such as syphilis, Lyme disease and leptospirosis are major threats to public health. However the immunopathogenesis of these diseases has not been fully elucidated.
