Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

From mouth to brain: Linking periodontal and peri‐implant dysbiosis to systemic inflammation and neuropathology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background/Aim Growing evidence suggests that imbalances occurring within the human microbiota and deregulation of the host immune response may play a significant role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Materials and Methods A comprehensive narrative review of the latest experimental, clinical, and epidemiological insights was ...

Sialic acid and N-acetylglucosamine Regulate type 1 Fimbriae Synthesis

Microbiology Spectrum, 2015
ABSTRACT Type 1 fimbriae of E. coli , a chaperon-usher bacterial adhesin, are synthesized by the majority of strains of the bacterium. Although frequently produced by commensal strains, the adhesin is nevertheless a virulence factor in Extraintestinal Pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC). The

Peri‐implantitis and systemic inflammation: Current evidence, biological plausibility, and research gaps

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a biofilm‐associated inflammatory condition characterized by peri‐implant mucosal inflammation and progressive bone loss. The prevalence of peri‐implantitis continues to rise among patients with dental implants. Although peri‐implantitis and periodontitis share similar inflammatory phenotypes, histopathological ...

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.
