چکیده مقاله:

Background and Aim: This study aimed to assess the antibody titer against Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) in rats with experimentally induced periodontitis. Materials and Methods: Thirty-three Surrey rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=11). Group 1 was vaccinated with formalin-killed whole cell (FKWC) P. gingivalis with incomplete Freund's adjuvant as vaccine carrier and orally inoculated with viable P. gingivalis (ATCC 33277). Group 2 was vaccinated with incomplete Freund's adjuvant and PG buffer and orally inoculated with viable P. gingivalis (positive control). Group 3 was vaccinated as group 2 without inoculation (negative control). Two weeks later, they were vaccinated with a booster dose. One week later, serum and saliva samples were obtained to assess antibody titer. Oral inoculation of bacteria was then done four times every 48 hours. Two weeks later, serum, saliva and subgingival plaque samples were obtained from the maxillary second molar area for assessment of P. gingivalis count in the subgingival plaque. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. Results: Serum and salivary antibody titers against P. gingivalis in group 1 one week af-ter booster dose and two weeks after oral inoculation of bacteria were significantly different from those in other groups (P<0.05). Groups 1 and 3 were not significantly different in terms of bacterial count in subgingival plaque (P=1.000) but the difference between groups 1 and 2 was significant (P<0.001). Conclusion: Vaccination with FKWC P. gingivalis increased serum IgG and salivary IgA and limited the colonization of P. gingivalis in subgingival plaque of rats.

Serum immunoglobulin G antibody to Porphyromonas gingivalis in rapidly progressive periodontitis: titer, avidity, and subclass distribution.

Porphyromonas gingivalis is a suspected pathogen in rapidly progressive periodontitis (RPP). We have determined the anti-P. gingivalis serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) isotype response and avidity and the subclass titer distributions for 30 RPP patients and 30 age-, sex-, and race-matched healthy subjects by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. Patients and control subjects were clas...

Effects of egg yolk antibody against Porphyromonas gingivalis gingipains in periodontitis patients.

Porphyromonas gingivalis gingipains is suspected to be one of the most important causative agents of periodontitis. We postulated that the inhibition of gingipains may reduce the pathogenic nature of P. gingivalis. Anti-P. gingivalis egg yolk antibody (IgY-GP) was isolated from the yolks of hens immunized with purified gingipains. We applied IgY-GP gel subgingivally in periodontitis patients wh...

Effect of anti-CD14 antibody on experimental periodontitis induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide.

The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) released by Porphyromonas gingivalis, a Gram-negative bacterium found in the periodontal pockets of patients with periodontitis, induces bone resorbing activity in vivo. We previously showed that a receptor for LPS on human gingival fibroblasts and gingival epithelial cells is CD14. In this study, we established a mouse model of experimental periodontitis by applyin...

Porphyromonas gingivalis strain variability and periodontitis.

To determine if there is variability in virulence among strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis in human periodontitis, their distribution in a group of subjects with clear indicators of periodontitis and in a healthy, age-matched control group was examined. The presence of heteroduplex types of P. gingivalis in the two groups was determined with a PCR-based assay. This assay relied on detection of...

Antibody reactive with Porphyromonas gingivalis hemagglutinin in chronic and generalized aggressive periodontitis.

BACKGROUND Porphyromonas gingivalis, a black-pigmented, gram-negative anaerobe, is found in periodontitis lesions and its presence in subgingival plaque significantly increases the risk for periodontitis. We have previously shown that patients with aggressive forms of periodontitis that are seropositive for P. gingivalis have less attachment loss than those that are seronegative. This suggests ...

Antibody reactive with Porphyromonas gingivalis serotypes K1-6 in adult and generalized early-onset periodontitis.

BACKGROUND Six serotypes of Porphyromonas gingivalis have recently been described. We sought to test the hypothesis that serotype specific carbohydrates from these strains are important antigens that elicit potent immune responses. METHODS Serum concentrations of IgG reactive with P. gingivalis serotypes K1-K6 were determined for 28 adult (AP) and 28 generalized early-onset (G-EOP) periodonti...
