The Oral‐Gut Axis: Bidirectional Interactions Between Microbiome and Diseases
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.This study aims to summarize the mechanisms underlying ectopic colonization of the gut by oral pathobionts and the microbial and host factors that regulate this process. ABSTRACT Increased colonization of typically oral microorganisms is frequently observed in the gut mucosa or lumen of individuals with gastrointestinal disorders, including patients ...
