Peri‐implant disease pathogenesis animal models: Consensus report of Workgroup 1 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The pathogenesis and etiology of peri‐implantitis demand a deeper understanding to lead to successful treatment modalities. Animal models of peri‐implantitis pathogenesis offer unique insights but their translational impact requires consideration of implant biomaterials science.

A Case of Recurrent Erysipelas Caused by Streptococcus mitis Group

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2018
The aetiology of erysipelas remains poorly defined though beta-haemolytic streptococci are considered as the main causative pathogens. We describe a case of a 70-year-old woman with recurrent erysipelas in her left arm due to infection with streptococci ...

A novel sialic acid-binding adhesin present in multiple species contributes to the pathogenesis of Infective endocarditis.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Bacterial binding to platelets is a key step in the development of infective endocarditis (IE). Sialic acid, a common terminal carbohydrate on host glycans, is the major receptor for streptococci on platelets.

Diversity and random forest models of oral microbiomes in periodontal health using publicly available data

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence on the 16S metabarcoding of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health remains limited. We aimed to analyze the diversity and potential of machine‐learning models of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health. Methods A total of 848 samples (supragingival = 210;

N-Acetylneuraminic acid transport by Streptococcus oralis strain AR3 [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1999
Streptococcus oralis has emerged as one of the most important organisms of the viridans streptococcus group in terms of infections and is recognised as an agent of infective endocarditis and, in immunocompromised patients, septicaemia. The mechanisms by which this organism proliferates in vivo are unknown.

Activity of the Lactate Dehydrogenase Inhibitor Oxamic Acid against the Fermentative Bacterium Streptococcus mitis/oralis: Bactericidal Effects and Prevention of Daptomycin Resistance In Vitro and in an Ex Vivo Model

Antibiotics, 2022
Streptococcus mitis/oralis is a fermentative bacterium that relies on lactate dehydrogenase to balance its redox poise and keep glycolysis active. Metabolomic analysis of an in vitro–derived daptomycin-resistant (DAP-R) S.

Electrolyzed saline as an alternative to chlorhexidine: Antimicrobial and biofilm volume outcomes in a 4‐day non‐brushing randomized controlled clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The biofilm‐inhibitory effects of electrolyzed saline (EOS) vary widely due to differences in formulations and treatment methods. This study analyzed the impact of EOS on key oral microbial species and used serial 3D‐intraoral scans to evaluate its effects on de novo biofilm formation.
