Alterations of oral microbiota are associated with the development and severity of acute pancreatitis
J Oral Microbiol. 2023 Oct 5;15(1):2264619. doi: 10.1080/20002297.2023.2264619. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTAcute pancreatitis (AP) is a common abdomen clinical emergency. Most APs have mild clinical symptoms and a good prognosis. However, about 20% of patients develop severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), increasing morbidity and mortality. The microbiome's impact on AP pathophysiology has received increasing attention. Hence, to explore changes in oral microbial composition in acute pancreatitis, we collected clinical information and oral saliva samples from 136 adult participants: 47 healthy controls, 43 acute mild AP (MAP), 29...

Smoking, tooth loss and oral hygiene practices have significant and site-specific impacts on the microbiome of oral mucosal surfaces: a cross-sectional study
This study highlights the complex relationship between mucosal colonisation and host factors, highlighting the need for careful consideration of these factors in mucosal microbiome studies.PMID:37795170 | PMC:PMC10547447 | DOI:10.1080/20002297.2023.2263971 (Source: Journal of Oral Microbiology)

A tightly controlled gene induction system that contributes to the study of lethal gene function in < em > Streptococcus mutans < /em >
J Oral Microbiol. 2023 Sep 7;15(1):2253675. doi: 10.1080/20002297.2023.2253675. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTEffective control of gene expression is crucial for understanding gene function in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. While several inducible gene expression systems have been reported in Streptococcus mutans, a conditional pathogen that causes dental caries, the significant non-inducible basal expression in these systems seriously limits their utility, especially when studying lethal gene functions and molecular mechanisms. We introduce a tightly controlled xylose-inducible gene expression system, TC-Xyl, for Strep...
