The effect of maternal oral health on pregnancy outcomes
… to reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes. Among the Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria frequently associated with periodontal disease are Treponema denticola, Tannerella forsythia and Porphyromonas gingivalis which may be detected in plaque using the BANA test (N-benzoyl-DL-arginine-2- naphthylamide). …

Periodontal bacterial-DNA initiated immuno-inflammatory responses in human osteoblastic cells
… is a chronic inflammatory disease initiated by gram negative anaerobic bacteria. These bacteria possess pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that interact with various receptors including Toll like receptors (TLRs). Bacterial DNA (bDNA) is one of the PAMPs mainly recognized by TLR9. …

The Role of Gram - Negative Anaerobes in Hidradenitis Suppurativa
… and infectious trigger of pathogenesis. Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria (GNA) such as Prevotella, Porphyromonas, and Fusobacterium are commonly identified in HS lesions, and their prevalence in lesions is associated with HS disease severity. Additionally, newly epithelialized structures …

Mechanistic studies of Fusobacterium genetic and defense systems
Fusobacterium are Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria that colonize a variety of eukaryotes including cattle and humans. In humans, Fusobacterium coordinates the central architecture of the oral biofilm by expressing an abundance of outer membrane adhesins that mediate bridging between early and late …

Investigating the transcriptional regulation by OxyR in Porphyromonas gingivalis.
Periodontal diseases are bacterially induced, inflammatory diseases which are responsible for loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue supporting the teeth which results in loss of teeth. Gram negative anaerobic bacteria are highly associated with these diseases. One of them is Porphyromonas …

Activity of Epithelial Defensin HBD-3 Against a Periodontal Pathogen
… known as Human Beta Defensin (HBD) 1-4. Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria that are associated with periodontal disease are resistant to human α-defensins, but are killed by β-defensins. </p> <p> HBD-3 is the most active β-defensin. HBD-3 is a longer peptide than HNP 1-4. HBD-3 has …

The role of Bacteroides Host Factor A in CTnDOT integration and Holliday junction resolution
Bacteroides are a common genus of Gram negative anaerobic bacteria within the human gut. Under normal conditions, Bacteroides spp. benefit the host by breaking down complex polysaccharides. However, when the gut is punctured, these species may escape to cause abscesses or infections within the …
