متن کاملThe Relationship between Porphyromonas gingivalis and Rheumatoid Arthritis: a Cross-Sectional Clinical, Microbiological, and Molecular Approach
Background: The relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and poor oral hygiene has longbeen proven. Colonization of Porphyromonas gingivalis in the oral cavity can play an important role in rheumatoid arthritis. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between rheumatoid arthritis disease and the presence of P. gingivalis. <stro...
متن کاملPorphyromonas gingivalis
Editorial Periodontal diseases have long been associated with an increased, yet moderate, risk for the development of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. The postulated mechanism underlying this association is the low grade systemic inflammatory response to pathogens engaged in chronic periodontal infection, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, which may facilitate atheroma formation and t...
متن کاملIdentification of a second lipopolysaccharide in Porphyromonas gingivalis W50.
We previously described a cell surface anionic polysaccharide (APS) in Porphyromonas gingivalis that is required for cell integrity and serum resistance. APS is a phosphorylated branched mannan that shares a common epitope with posttranslational additions to some of the Arg-gingipains. This study aimed to determine the mechanism of anchoring of APS to the surface of P. gingivalis. APS was purif...
متن کاملConstruction and characterization of a Porphyromonas gingivalis htpG disruption mutant.
Our previous reports implicated the Hsp90 homologue (HtpG) of Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) in its virulence in periodontal disease. We investigated the role of the HtpG stress protein in the virulence of Pg. This report describes the (i) expression of a recombinant Pg HtpG (rHtpG), (ii) generation and characterization of a polyclonal rabbit anti-Pg rHtpG antiserum, and (iii) construction of a ...
