Advances in Treponema denticola and oral diseases
Treponema denticola is an important pathogenic Treponema pathogen in the human oral cavity. Early studies have found that Treponema denticola is closely related to the occurrence and development of periodontal diseases.

Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola exhibit metabolic symbioses. [PDF]
Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola are strongly associated with chronic periodontitis. These bacteria have been co-localized in subgingival plaque and demonstrated to exhibit symbiosis in growth in vitro and synergistic virulence upon co ...

Treponema denticola enolase contributes to the production of antibodies against ENO1 but not to the progression of periodontitis [PDF]
Autoantibodies against alpha-enolase (ENO1) are often detected in various infectious and autoimmune diseases. Anti-ENO1 antibody titers were reported to be associated with the severity of periodontitis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Genetic Manipulations of Oral Spirochete Treponema denticola. [PDF]
There have been more than 60 different oral Treponema species identified in the oral cavity; however, only few species can be cultivated in vitro reliably. Among those cultivable species, due to its medical importance and genetic tractability, Treponema denticola, one of the keystone pathogens associated with human periodontitis, has emerged as a ...

Arginine catabolism by Treponema denticola [PDF]
Treponema denticola, an anaerobe commonly present in the human mouth, ferments various amino acids and glucose. Amino acid analyses indicated that substrate amounts of arginine were utilized by T. denticola growing in a complex, serum-containing medium.

Expanded Functional Characterization and Optimization of Protein Expression in Treponema denticola Shuttle Plasmids. [PDF]
We report optimization of the Treponema denticola shuttle plasmid system by minimizing its size and by characterizing an array of promoter‐gene constructs for genetic complementation, including the first use in Treponema of a Tet‐inducible system for controlled expression of potentially toxic genes.

Identification of periodontopathogen microorganisms by PCR technique [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the supporting tissues of teeth and is a major cause of tooth loss in adults. The onset and progression of periodontal disease is attributed to the presence of elevated levels of a consortium of ...
