1. Exotoxins of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and periodontal attachment loss in adolescents
Sammanfattning : Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral bacterium that is mainly associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis, which most often starts at an early age. Amongst the virulence factors of A. LÄS MER
2. Inflammatory cell death of human macrophages induced by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans leukotoxin
Sammanfattning : Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actinomycetemcomitans is a bacterium mainly associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis. Among its virulence factors, a leukotoxin is suggested to play an important role in the pathogenicity. LÄS MER
3. Vesicle-independent extracellular release and bioactivity of peptidoglycan-associated lipoprotein from Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans
Sammanfattning : Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative coccobacillus of the Pasteurellaceae family. It is implicated in periodontitis, a common low-grade bacterial infection, but it can also cause non-oral infections. The main aim of this project was to identify and characterize in A. LÄS MER
4. Periodontitis in adolescents : presence of Aggregatibacter species and interactions with the host
Sammanfattning : Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Aggregatibacter aphrophilus are closely related gram-negative bacteria mainly found in the oral cavity. Periodontitis in adolescents is associated with the presence of A. actinomycetemcomitans, but not with the presence of A. aphrophilus. LÄS MER
5. Vesicle-mediated and free soluble delivery of bacterial effector proteins by oral and systemic pathogens
Sammanfattning : Periodontitis, the primary cause of tooth-loss worldwide, is a bacterially induced chronic inflammatory disease of the periodontium. It is associated with systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, pathogenic mechanisms of periodontitis-associated bacteria that may contribute to the CVD association are unclear. LÄS MER
