Long‐Term Care of OLP Patients: A Retrospective Study From a Single Hospital Outpatient Clinic
ABSTRACT Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic immune‐mediated disorder with malignant potential. However, its real‐world clinical course remains incompletely characterized. This study aimed to describe the natural clinical–histopathological trajectory of OLP in a single tertiary centre and to identify factors associated with dysplasia and ...

Inhibition of superinfection and the evolution of viral latency
Latent viruses generally defend their host cell against superinfection by nonlatent virulent mutants that could destroy the host cell. Superinfection inhibition thus seems to be a prerequisite for the maintenance of viral latency.

The Role of Viruses in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the presence and potential pathogenic role of viruses in periodontitis. Design: Narrative Review; Population: Patients with periodontitis; Exposure: Detection of viruses in oral samples (biopsies, saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, subgingival plaque, blood); Outcome: Viral prevalence, load ...

That communication can occur between virus-infected cells has been appreciated for nearly as long as has virus molecular biology. The original virus communication process specifically was that seen with T-even bacteriophages—phages T2, T4, and T6 ...

Giant viruses inhibit superinfection by downregulating phagocytosis in Acanthamoeba [PDF]
In the context of the virosphere, viral particles can compete for host cells. In this scenario, some viruses block the entry of exogenous virions upon infecting a cell, a phenomenon known as superinfection inhibition.

Topicality. One of the risk factors for the progression of the fibrotic process in the liver in triple superinfection with HIV/HBV/HCV may be the order of entry of viral pathogens into the human body, as well as the time interval between the entry of ...

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways
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.

Oral Phageome as Potential Modulators of Periodontal Dysbiosis. A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Introduction The oral phageome, comprising bacteriophages inhabiting the oral cavity, has been proposed as a potential modulator of periodontal health and disease. This systematic review synthesizes current evidence on interactions between bacteriophages, key periodontal bacteria, and the host in periodontitis.

Some viruses can suppress superinfections of their host cells by related or different virus species. The phenomenon of superinfection exclusion can be caused by inhibiting virus attachment, receptor binding and entry, by replication interference, or competition for host cell resources. Blocking attachment and entry not only prevents unproductive double
