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.

Purification of Native Dentilisin Complex from Treponema denticola by Preparative Continuous Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis and Functional Analysis by Gelatin Zymography [PDF]
Periodontal disease is characterized by the destruction of the hard and soft tissues comprising the periodontium. This destruction translates to a degradation of the extracellular matrices (ECM), mediated by bacterial proteases, host-derived matrix ...

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.

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.

Effect of fluoride on Treponema denticola [PDF]
The effect of fluoride on the growth of Treponema denticola was studied. Fluoride, at a concentration of 20 micrograms/ml, was found to suppress the growth of all three strains tested. Growth was completely inhibited by 40 micrograms of fluoride per ml.

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 ...

Characterization of fibrinolytic activities of Treponema denticola [PDF]
Several fibrinolytic activities of Treponema denticola, an oral spirochete associated with gingivitis and periodontal disease, were identified and characterized following phase partitioning with the nonionic detergent Triton X-114. The apparent molecular masses of the proteases ranged from 91 to 228 kDa when analyzed in sodium dodecyl sulfate ...
