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.

Riboflavin Salvage Supports Glycolysis in Borrelia burgdorferi Through Flavin‐Dependent NAD+ Regeneration

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
The Lyme disease agent Borrelia burgdorferi has limited metabolic capabilities and depends on salvage of riboflavin via the BB0316‐BB0319 transport system for generation of critical flavin cofactors FMN and FAD. Riboflavin is important for NAD+ regeneration to fuel glycolysis.

Complete genome sequencing of Oral Spirochete Treponema sp. OMZ 305 [PDF]

, 2018
Objectives: More than 75 species/species-level phylotypes of bacteria belonging to the genus Treponema inhabit the human oral cavity. However, our understanding of oral treponeme taxonomy and genome biology remains limited.

Oral Microbiome in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: A Systematic Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The oral cavity represents a key but underexplored interface between host immunity and microbial communities. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize current literature on oral microbiota alterations in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Metagenomic Evaluation of Oral Microbiota in Patients Affected by Oral Lichen Planus: A Pilot Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the oral bacterial and fungal microbiota of symptomatic oral lichen planus patients undergoing topical corticosteroid therapy and to explore microbial patterns potentially associated with subsequent oral candidiasis. Methods Twelve patients with clinically and histologically confirmed OLP were enrolled.

Oral Phageome as Potential Modulators of Periodontal Dysbiosis. A Systematic Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
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.

Efficacy of a Hyaluronic Acid‐Based Gel Versus 0.20% Chlorhexidine in Nonsurgical Periodontal Therapy: A Single‐Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the adjunctive efficacy of a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel with 0.20% chlorhexidine (CHX) during nonsurgical periodontal therapy in periodontal patients over 6 months. Methods A single‐blind, randomized, controlled trial included 40 healthy, nonsmoking adults with periodontitis.

Characteristics of the Health‐Associated Oral Microbiome in Young Nonhuman Primates

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
The oral microbiome of healthy younger nonhuman primates, as a preclinical model of the human oral cavity, was evaluated. The results provide seminal details of the oral microbiome in this disease model to elucidate specific microbial changes.

Walsh & Hoyt: Other Diseases Caused by Treponema Species [PDF]

, 2005
As noted above, infection by Treponema species other than Treponema pallidum pallidum causes the spirochetal infections known as yaws, bejel, and pinta. None of these disorders is of sufficient neuro-ophthalmologic interest to warrant their inclusion in ...
