  1. 6. Expression of prostaglandin E synthase-1 in periodontitis : in vivo and in vitro studies

    Författare :Anna Kats; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    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

  3. 7. The role of peridontitis and hepatocyte growth factor in systemic inflammation

    Författare :Johanna Lönn; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Fariba Nayeri; Anders Gustafsson; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hepatocyte growth factor; Porphyromonas gingivalis; periodontitis; systemic inflammation; coronary artery disease; chronic renal failure; lipoxin; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    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.

  4. 8. The role of monocytes in chronic inflammatory diseases

    Författare :Sofia Björnfot Holmström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    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.

  5. 9. Development of novel tools for prevention and diagnosis of Porphyromonas gingivalis infection and periodontitis

    Författare :Sravya Sowdamini Nakka; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Hazem Khalaf; Fariba Nayeri; Johanna Lönn; Tülay Lindberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Periodontitis; Porphyromonas gingivalis; anti-P. gingivalis antibodies; surface plasmon resonance; PLNC8 αβ; proliferation; growth factors.; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    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

  7. 10. Lactobacillus characterization and effects on oral biofilm composition

    Författare :Nelly Romani Vestman; Ingegerd Johansson; Jukka Meurman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lactobacillus; L. gasseri; probiotic traits; oral biofilm; breastfeeding; oral microbiota; odontologi; Odontology;

    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
