GroEL of Porphyromonas gingivalis ‐induced microRNAs accelerate tumor neovascularization by downregulating thrombomodulin expression in endothelial progenitor cells
In conclusion, the intracellular domain of the TM of EPCs plays a negative regulatory role in the proangiogenic capabilities of EPCs, mainly through direct interaction between TM and PI3K/Akt to inhibit the activation of signaling pathways. The effects of GroEL on tumor growth can be reduced by inhibiting the proangiogenic properties of EPCs through the inhibition of the expression of specific miRNAs.

The involvement of CdhR in Porphyromonas gingivalis during nitric oxide stress
AbstractPorphyromonas gingivalis, the causative agent of adult periodontitis, must gain resistance to frequent oxidative and nitric oxide (NO) stress attacks from immune cells in the periodontal pocket to survive. Previously, we found that, in the wild-type and under NO stress, the expression ofPG1237 (CdhR), the gene encoding for a putative LuxR transcriptional regulator previously called community development and hemin regulator (CdhR), was upregulated 7.7-fold, and its adjacent genePG1236 11.9-fold. Isogenic mutantsP. gingivalis FLL457 ( ΔCdhR::ermF), FLL458 ( ΔPG1236::ermF), and FLL459 ( ΔPG1236-CdhR::ermF) were mad...

Small noncoding RNA in Streptococci: From regulatory functions to drug development
AbstractStreptococci are a genus of gram-positive coccus of spherical bacteria, including many commensal bacteria and opportunistic pathogens that threaten the public health system. Small noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) are a class of noncoding RNAs regulating gene expression via various regulatory mechanisms, which have been illustrated to play vital roles in regulations of virulence factor expressions. Recent advances in sequencing technology and bioinformatic analysis facilitated discovery of a myriad of sRNAs from pathogenic bacteria, revealing a variety of unique features that contribute to gene expressions and virulence regul...

vicR overexpression in Streptococcus mutans causes aggregation and affects interspecies competition
In this study, we found that thevicR-overexpressing strain was more likely to aggregate to form cell clusters, leading to the formation of abnormal biofilm; the overexpression ofvicR increased the length of the chain ofS. mutans. Furthermore, the expression of the mutacins in thevicR overexpression strain was increased under aerobic conditions. Compared with the control strain and the parental strain, thevicR overexpression strain was more competitive againstStreptococcus gordonii. But there was no significant difference againstStreptococcus sanguinis. In clinical strains, the expression level ofvicR was positively correla...

Efficacy of cetylpyridinium chloride mouthwash against SARS ‐CoV‐2: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials
Conclusion: Mouthwashes containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride are effective against salivary viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in vivo. There is also the possibility that the use of mouthwash containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride in SARS-CoV-2 positive subjects could reduce transmissibility and severity of COVID-19.This article is protected by copyright.
