Abstract
Oral microbiota and gastrointestinal microbiota, the two largest microbiomes in the human body, are closely correlated and frequently interact through the oral-gut axis. Recent research has focused on the roles of these microbiomes in human health and diseases. Under normal conditions, probiotics and commensal bacteria can positively impact health. However, altered physiological states may induce dysbiosis, increasing the risk of pathogen colonization. Studies suggest that oral and gastrointestinal pathogens contribute not only to localized diseases at their respective colonized sites but also to the progression of systemic diseases. However, the mechanisms by which bacteria at these local sites are involved in systemic diseases remain elusive. In response to this gap, the focus has shifted to bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs), which act as mediators of communication between the microbiota and the host. Numerous studies have reported the targeted delivery of bacterial pathogenic substances from the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract to distant organs via BEVs. These pathogenic components subsequently elicit specific cellular responses in target organs, thereby mediating the progression of systemic diseases. This review aims to elucidate the extensive microbial communication via the oral-gut axis, summarize the types and biogenesis mechanisms of BEVs, and highlight the translocation pathways of oral and gastrointestinal BEVs in vivo, as well as the impacts of pathogens-derived BEVs on systemic diseases.

Abstract
Sialic acid metabolism in oral bacteria is a complex process involving nutrient acquisition, immune evasion, cell surface modification, and the production of metabolites that contribute to bacterial persistence and virulence in the oral cavity. In addition to causing various periodontal diseases, certain oral pathogenic bacteria, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, and Fusobacterium nucleatum, can induce inflammatory reactions and influence the immunity of host cells. These associations with host cells are linked to various diseases, particularly colorectal cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Sialic acid can be found in the host oral mucosa, saliva, or food residues in the oral cavity, and it may promote the colonization of oral bacteria and contribute to disease development. This review aims to summarize the role of sialic acid metabolism in oral bacteria and discuss its effect on the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer and Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Chronic periodontitis and its keystone pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis, have increasingly been linked with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, P.gingivalis-lipopolysaccharide (LPS) mediated release of neuroinflammatory proteins contributes to AD remains underexplored. In this study, we utilized data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry to characterize P.gingivalis-LPS induced profile of differentially expressed proteins associated with the neuroinflammatory response in human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) and human microglial (HMC3) cells. We reported a set of 124 proteins in SH-SY5Y cells and 96 proteins in HMC3 cells whose levels were significantly upregulated or downregulated by exposure to P. gingivalis-LPS. Our findings demonstrate that P. gingivalis-LPS contributed to the elevated expressions of dementia biomarkers and pro-inflammatory cytokines that include APP, Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, T-Tau, p-Tau, VEGF, TGF-β, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α through 2 distinct pathways of extracellular sensing by cell surface receptors and intracellular cytosolic receptors. Interestingly, intracellular signaling proteins activated with P. gingivalis-LPS transfection using Lipofectamine™ 2000 had significantly higher fold change protein expression compared to the extracellular signaling with P. gingivalis-LPS treatment. Additionally, we also explored P. gingivalis-LPS mediated activation of caspase-4 dependent non canonical inflammasome pathway in both SH-SY5Y and HMC3 cells. In summary, P. gingivalis-LPS induced neuroinflammatory protein expression in SH-SY5Y and HMC3 cells, provided insights into the specific inflammatory pathways underlying the potential link between P. gingivalis-LPS infection and the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.

Abstract
The cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and the pathophysiological mechanisms involved, remain major unanswered questions in medical science. Oral bacteria, especially those species associated with chronic periodontitis and particularly Porphyromonas gingivalis, are being linked causally to AD pathophysiology in a subpopulation of susceptible individuals. P. gingivalis produces large amounts of proteolytic enzymes, haem and iron capture proteins, adhesins and internalins that are secreted and attached to the cell surface and concentrated onto outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). These enzymes and adhesive proteins have been shown to cause host tissue damage and stimulate inflammatory responses. The ecological and pathophysiological roles of P. gingivalis OMVs, their ability to disperse widely throughout the host and deliver functional proteins lead to the proposal that they may be the link between a P. gingivalis focal infection in the subgingivae during periodontitis and neurodegeneration in AD. P. gingivalis OMVs can cross the blood brain barrier and may accelerate AD-specific neuropathology by increasing neuroinflammation, plaque/tangle formation and dysregulation of iron homeostasis, thereby inducing ferroptosis leading to neuronal death and neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Activation of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) has been shown to play a crucial role in the proinflammatory response of B cells and myeloid cells upon engagement with B cell, Fc, Toll-like receptor, and distinct chemokine receptors. Previous reports suggest BTK actively contributes to the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The BTK inhibitor Evobrutinib has been shown to reduce the numbers of gadolinium-enhancing lesions and relapses in relapsing-remitting MS patients. In vitro, BTK inhibition resulted in reduced phagocytic activity and modulated BTK-dependent inflammatory signaling of microglia and macrophages. Here, we investigated the protein expression of BTK and CD68 as well as iron accumulation in postmortem control (n = 10) and MS (n = 23) brain tissue, focusing on microglia and macrophages. MS cases encompassed active, chronic active, and inactive lesions. BTK+ and iron+ cells positively correlated across all regions of interests and, along with CD68, revealed highest numbers in the center of active and at the rim of chronic active lesions. We then studied the effect of BTK inhibition in the human immortalized microglia-like HMC3 cell line in vitro. In particular, we loaded HMC3 cells with iron-dextran and subsequently administered the BTK inhibitor Evobrutinib. Iron treatment alone induced a proinflammatory phenotype and increased the expression of iron importers as well as the intracellular iron storage protein ferritin light chain (FTL). BTK inhibition of iron-laden cells dampened the expression of microglia-related inflammatory genes as well as iron-importers, whereas the iron-exporter ferroportin was upregulated. Our data suggest that BTK inhibition not only dampens the proinflammatory response but also reduces iron import and storage in activated microglia and macrophages with possible implications on microglial iron accumulation in chronic active lesions in MS.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common oral bacterial infection characterized by inflammatory responses. Its high prevalence lowers the quality of life for individuals and increases the global economic and disease burden. As microorganisms in dental plaque are responsible for this oral disease, antibacterial drug treatments are effective strategies for preventing and treating periodontitis. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effect of nicotinamide (NAM), a vitamin B3 derivative, on the growth and virulence of Porphyromonas gingivalis, a key member of the red complex. Our findings revealed that NAM inhibited bacterial growth and gingipain activities, which played a dominant role in protein hydrolysis and heme acquisition. NAM decreased hemagglutination and hemolysis abilities and changed hemin and hemoglobin binding capacities, controlling bacterial infection through a starvation strategy by blocking access to growth-essential nutrients from the outside and reducing bacterial virulence. Several experiments in an animal model showed the effectiveness of NAM in preventing alveolar bone loss and reducing inflammatory cell infiltration, shedding light on its potential therapeutic applicability.

Abstract
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a term used to describe abnormalities in the intracranial microvasculature affecting small arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and venules. The etiology of these conditions is not fully understood but inflammation appears to play a significant role. Periodontal diseases have been associated with conditions such as stroke and dementia, which are clinical consequences of CSVD. Periodontitis is a highly prevalent chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease regulated by the host immune response against pathogenic bacterial colonization around the teeth. The inflammatory response and the microbial dysbiosis produce pro-inflammatory cytokines that can reach the brain and promote local changes. This review will explore the potential association between periodontitis and CSVD by assessing the impact of periodontitis-induced inflammation and periodontopathogenic bacteria on the underlying mechanisms leading to CSVD. Given the association of periodontitis with stroke and dementia, which are clinical features of CSVD, it may be possible to suggest a link with CSVD. Current evidence linking periodontitis with neuroimaging findings of CSVD enforces the possible link between these conditions.

Abstract
Periodontitis is proposed as a risk factor for preterm delivery, fetal growth restriction, and preeclampsia with severe consequences for maternal and neonatal health, but the biological mechanisms involved are elusive. Porphyromonas gingivalis gain access to the placental bed and impair trophoblast cell function, as assessed in murine and human pregnancy, suggesting a pathogenic role in adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. P. gingivalis releases outer membrane vesicles (P. gingivalis OMV) during growth that spread to distant tissues and are internalized in host cells as described in metabolic, neurological, and vascular systemic diseases. Here we tested the hypothesis that P. gingivalis OMV internalized in trophoblast cells disrupt their metabolism leading to trophoblast and placenta dysfunction and adverse pregnancy outcomes. An in vitro design with human trophoblast cells incubated with P. gingivalis OMV was used together with ex vivo and in vivo approaches in pregnant mice treated with P. gingivalis OMV. P. gingivalis OMV modulated human trophoblast cell metabolism by reducing glycolytic pathways and decreasing total reactive oxygen species with sustained mitochondrial activity. Metabolic changes induced by P. gingivalis OMV did not compromise cell viability; instead, it turned trophoblast cells into a metabolic resting state where central functions such as migration and invasion were reduced. The effects of P. gingivalis OMV on human trophoblast cells were corroborated ex vivo in mouse whole placenta and in vivo in pregnant mice: P. gingivalis OMV reduced glycolytic pathways in the placenta and led to lower placental and fetal weight gain in vivo with reduced placental expression of the glucose transporter GLUT1. The present results point to OMV as a key component of P. gingivalis involved in adverse pregnancy outcomes, and even more, unveil a metabolic cue in the deleterious effect of P. gingivalis OMV on trophoblast cells and mouse pregnancy, providing new clues to understand pathogenic mechanisms in pregnancy complications and other systemic diseases.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that in various systems, not all bidirectional microbiota-host interactions involve direct cell contact. Bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) may be key participants in this interkingdom crosstalk. BEVs mediate microbiota functions by delivering effector molecules that modulate host signaling pathways, thereby facilitating host-microbe interactions. BEV production during infections by both pathogens and probiotics has been observed in various host tissues. Therefore, these vesicles released by microbiota may have the ability to drive or inhibit disease pathogenesis in different systems within the host. Here, we review the current knowledge of BEVs and particularly emphasize their interactions with the host and the pathogenesis of systemic diseases.

Abstract
Mammalian-cell-derived extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes, have been a key focal point for investigating host-pathogen interactions and are major facilitators in modulating both bacterial and viral infection. However, in recent years, increasing attention has been given to extracellular vesicles produced by bacteria and the role they play in regulating infection and disease. Extracellular vesicles produced by pathogenic bacteria employ a myriad of strategies to assist in bacterial virulence or divert antibacterial responses away from the parental bacterium to promote infection by and survival of the parental bacterium. Commensal bacteria also produce extracellular vesicles. These vesicles can play a variety of roles during infection, depending on the bacterium, but have been primarily shown to aid the host by stimulating innate immune responses to control infection by both bacteria and viruses. This article will review the activities of bacterial extracellular vesicles known to modulate infection by bacterial and viral pathogens.
