Proper Case Selection to Ensure Judicious Use of Antimicrobial Agents in the Treatment of Periodontal Disease
Abstract: It is now well-known that dental plaque exists as a biofilm, and specific plaque bacteria such as A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis are responsible for the initiation and progression of periodontitis. Plaque bacteria within the biofilm are partially protected from antibiotics and host immune reactions. The strategy of periodontal treatment should include a break-up of the biofilm and subsequent elimination of periodontal pathogens. Plaque biofilms cannot be eliminated by daily …

Pathways of Periodontal Disease and Alveolar Bone Loss in Type II Diabetes
Abstract: or poorly-controlled type II diabetes often exhibits a high morbidity of periodontal pathology. Food impaction in defective restorations or open proximal contacts often leads to infection, carious lesions, periodontitis, alveolar bone loss and often tooth loss. An iatrogenic injury occurs when restorations are defective, fractures, or have open proximal contacts and are not planned to be repaired or replaced. In addition to having poor therapeutic outcomes, defective restorations or open …

Recombinant Lactobacillus helveticus PJ4-Down Regulates TLR4 Mediated Inflammatory Responses in Sucrose Induced Diabetic Rats: A Novel Therapeutic Approach
Abstract: High sucrose diet (HSD) is known to induce type 2 diabetes. Recombinant Lactobacillus helveticus PJ4 was constructed to express the InuJ gene under the xylose promoter resulting in the secretion of inulosucrase enzyme in gastrointestinal tract which polymerizes the fructose moiety of sucrose to inulin type fructans. L. helveticus (pSLP-InuJ-Vhb) transformant (LHI) was intragastrically administered to rats fed with HSD diet. The composition of fecal microbiota and short-chain fatty acids …
