-#Streptococcus salivarius K12 and M18 prevented immune activation induced by periodontal disease pathogens. - [1.2]
- Coexisting #Hypertension and periodontal disease > increased #Neisseria and #Solobacterium genera - [1.3]
- #Saccharibacteria species > reduce inflammation and consequential bone loss by modulating host bacterial pathogenicity in a mouse ligature-induced periodontitis model. - [1.4] [#Chronic periodontitis]
- #Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) is a Gram-negative coccobacillus recognized as a pathogen in periodontitis and infective endocarditis. By producing a toxin (#Leukotoxin A, LtxA) that triggers global hypercitrullination in neutrophils, Aa has been recently linked to #Rheumatoid Arthritis. - Aa has been proposed as a link between periodontitis and autoimmunity in #Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) due to its ability to induce citrullinated autoantigens targeted by anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs). - [1.5] [#Secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein proline-g]
- Secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein proline-glutamine rich 1 (SCPPPQ1), a protein normally produced by the gingival epithelium to mediate its attachment to teeth, was suggested to be bactericidal. - Incubation of #Porphyromonas gingivalis, a major periodontopathogen, with the full-length protein resulted in decrease in bacterial number, formation of aggregates and membrane disruptions. - [1.6] [#Multiple Sclerosis] [#Porphyromonas gingivalis] [#Lipopolysaccharide]
- in periodontitis-diseased tissues, P. gingivalis was present, but not much LPS was evident in tissues. - these bacterial lipids accumulate in structures in blood vessels that can lead to thickening or blockages called atheromas. - in the blood of MS patients, and they found that the bacterial lipid levels were lower in MS patients, a very surprising result. They expected, if anything, that patients with the autoimmune disease would have more lipid present. - [1.7]
- Transplantation of periopathogenic microbiota from the SP patients altered the caecal microbiota and induced low-grade intestinal inflammation in mice. - The abundance of #Porphyromonadaceae and #Fusobacterium, which are co-pathogens in periodontitis and intestinal inflammation was significantly enriched in the gut of the C-SP group. - Interestingly, #Porphyromonadaceae was also enriched in the salivary samples from the humans, revealing the close relationship between the salivary and gut microbiota. - [1.8]
