6. Expression of prostaglandin E synthase-1 in periodontitis : in vivo and in vitro studies
Sammanfattning : Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth, including gingival tissues and alveolar bone. In advanced cases of periodontitis the ultimate clinical outcome is tooth loss. LÄS MER
7. The role of peridontitis and hepatocyte growth factor in systemic inflammation
Sammanfattning : An essential goal in addressing inflammation is the return of tissue to homeostasis. Persistent infections often cause prolonged response and accumulation of immune cells, inducing imbalance in pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, tissue destruction, and chronic inflammation.

8. The role of monocytes in chronic inflammatory diseases
Sammanfattning : Monocytes and monocyte-derived cells are important players in the orchestration of inflammatory reactions in blood and peripheral tissues. However, little is known about the monocyte fate upon entry into human tissues, and current concepts are mainly based on animal models, with the addition of observational studies in humans that often do not allow determining causality.

9. Development of novel tools for prevention and diagnosis of Porphyromonas gingivalis infection and periodontitis
Sammanfattning : Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by exaggerated host immune responses to dysregulated microbiota in dental biofilms leading to degradation of tissues and alveolar bone loss. Porphyromonas gingivalis is a major periodontal pathogen and expresses several potent virulence factors. LÄS MER
10. Lactobacillus characterization and effects on oral biofilm composition
Sammanfattning : The human body is home for millions of bacteria. The largest microbial community is located in the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract, including the oral cavity with >700 identified taxa. Lactobacillus, which is normal inhabitant of the GI tract, contributes to health by possible biofilm and immune modulation. LÄS MER
