[PMID: 38388241 PMCID: PMC11287149 DOI: 10.1016/j.identj.2024.01.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS Arsenic exposure is a significant global public health concern and has been implicated in endocrine disruption and increased oxidative stress, both of which are crucial pathogenic mechanisms of periodontitis. This study aimed to investigate the association of urinary total arsenic and arsenic species with periodontitis and to further explore the potential mediating roles of sex hormones and oxidative stress indicators. METHODS Data used in this study were derived from the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in the US population. In all, 1063 participants with complete data were included in this study. Weighted logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between urinary arsenic and periodontitis. Mediation analyses were used to explore the effects of potential mediators on these associations. RESULTS High concentrations of urinary dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), monomethylarsonic acid (MMA), 2 types of toxic urinary arsenic (TUA2), and 4 types of toxic urinary arsenic (TUA4) were positively related to periodontitis (P < .05). After adjusting for potential confounders, the positive association remained significant (odds ratio, 1.32; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.71). Testosterone may partially mediate the relationship between MMA and periodontitis, with mediating effects of 21.78% and 39.73% of the total effect. No significant mediation effect of oxidative stress indicators was found for this relationship. CONCLUSIONS This study reports a positive association between urinary MMA and periodontitis, and testosterone may mediate this relationship. Our findings serve as a call for action to avoid the deployment of arsenic-containing therapeutic agents as treatment modalities for oral afflictions.

Methylome-wide analysis in systemic microbial-induced experimental periodontal disease in mice with different susceptibility. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2024; 14:1369226. [PMID: 39086605 PMCID: PMC11289848 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2024.1369226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The study delved into the epigenetic factors associated with periodontal disease in two lineages of mice, namely C57bl/6 and Balb/c. Its primary objective was to elucidate alterations in the methylome of mice with distinct genetic backgrounds following systemic microbial challenge, employing high-throughput DNA methylation analysis as the investigative tool. Methods Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg)was orally administered to induce periodontitis in both Balb/c and C57bl/6 lineage. After euthanasia, genomic DNA from both maxilla and blood were subjected to bisulfite conversion, PCR amplification and genome-wide DNA methylation analysis using the Ovation RRBS Methyl-Seq System coupled with the Illumina Infinium Mouse Methylation BeadChip. Results Of particular significance was the distinct methylation profile observed within the Pg-induced group of the Balb/c lineage, contrasting with both the control and Pg-induced groups of the C57bl/6 lineage. Utilizing rigorous filtering criteria, we successfully identified a substantial number of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) across various tissues and comparison groups, shedding light on the prevailing hypermethylation in non-induced cohorts and hypomethylation in induced groups. The comparison between blood and maxilla samples underscored the unique methylation patterns specific to the jaw tissue. Our comprehensive methylome analysis further unveiled statistically significant disparities, particularly within promoter regions, in several comparison groups. Conclusion The differential DNA methylation patterns observed between C57bl/6 and Balb/c mouse lines suggest that epigenetic factors contribute to the variations in disease susceptibility. The identified differentially methylated regions associated with immune regulation and inflammatory response provide potential targets for further investigation. These findings emphasize the importance of considering epigenetic mechanisms in the development and progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the gums affects both the ligament and alveolar bone. A severe form of periodontal disease affects a strikingly high number of one billion adults globally. The disease permutes both the soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity leading to localized and systemic diseases. Periodontitis has a deleterious impact on systemic health causing diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and other disease. The cause of the enhanced inflammatory process is due to dysbiosis and an unregulated immune response. Innate immune response and T cells trigger uninhibited cytokine release causing an unwarranted inflammatory response. The RANK- RANKL interaction between osteoblasts, immune cells, and progenitor osteoclasts results in the maturation of osteoclasts, which promote bone resorption. It is well established that dysbiosis of the oral cavity has been implicated in periodontitis. But emerging reports suggest that the pulmonary pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), causes extrapulmonary diseases such as periodontitis. Many clinical case reports advocate the involvement of Mtb in periodontitis, which poses a threat with the surge of tuberculosis in HIV and other immunocompromised individuals. Fostering a better understanding of the mechanism, causative agents and control on inflammatory response is imperative in the prevention and treatment of periodontitis.

[PMID: 38802844 PMCID: PMC11129485 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04342-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to elucidate the biological functions of ferroptosis-related genes in periodontitis, along with their correlation to tumor microenvironment (TME) features such as immune infiltration. It aims to provide potential diagnostic markers of ferroptosis for clinical management of periodontitis. METHODS Utilizing the periodontitis-related microarray dataset GSE16134 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and a set of 528 ferroptosis-related genes identified in prior studies, this research unveils differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes in periodontitis. Subsequently, a protein-protein interaction network was constructed. Subtyping of periodontitis was explored, followed by validation through immune cell infiltration and gene set enrichment analyses. Two algorithms, randomForest and SVM(Support Vector Machine), were employed to reveal potential ferroptosis diagnostic markers for periodontitis. The diagnostic efficacy, immune correlation, and potential transcriptional regulatory networks of these markers were further assessed. Finally, potential targeted drugs for differentially expressed ferroptosis markers in periodontitis were predicted. RESULTS A total of 36 ferroptosis-related genes (30 upregulated, 6 downregulated) were identified from 829 differentially expressed genes between 9 periodontitis samples and the control group. Subsequent machine learning algorithm screening highlighted 4 key genes: SLC1A5(Solute Carrier Family 1 Member 5), SLC2A14(Solute Carrier Family 1 Member 14), LURAP1L(Leucine Rich Adaptor Protein 1 Like), and HERPUD1(Homocysteine Inducible ER Protein With Ubiquitin Like Domain 1). Exploration of these 4 key genes, supported by time-correlated ROC analysis, demonstrated reliability, while immune infiltration results indicated a strong correlation between key genes and immune factors. Furthermore, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was conducted for the four key genes, revealing enrichment in GO/KEGG pathways that have a significant impact on periodontitis. Finally, the study predicted potential transcriptional regulatory networks and targeted drugs associated with these key genes in periodontitis. CONCLUSIONS The ferroptosis-related genes identified in this study, including SLC1A5, SLC2A14, LURAP1L, and HERPUD1, may serve as novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets for periodontitis. They are likely involved in the occurrence and development of periodontitis through mechanisms such as immune infiltration, cellular metabolism, and inflammatory chemotaxis, potentially linking the ferroptosis pathway to the progression of periodontitis. Targeted drugs such as flurofamide, L-733060, memantine, tetrabenazine, and WAY-213613 hold promise for potential therapeutic interventions in periodontitis associated with these ferroptosis-related genes.

Abstract
To investigate biological processes of the periodontium, in vitro primary cell models have been established. To study the biology of the gingiva, primary gingival fibroblast cell models are widely used. For such experiments, cells need to be expanded and passaged. A key assumption is that primary cells maintain most of their original characteristics they have in situ. The aim of this research is to explore the impact of early passaging on selected gene expression of human gingival fibroblast cells. For this purpose, gene expression from the outgrowth of the resected tissues until the fourth passage was followed for nine tissue samples, from both healthy and diseased sites. Micrographs were taken from the cultures, RNA was extracted from the samples of each passage and quantitative PCR was performed for selected genes representing various biological processes. Epithelial cells were present during the first outgrowth, but were no longer present in the second passage. Our results indicate that the morphology of the gingival fibroblast cells does not change with passaging and that passages 2-4 contain only gingival fibroblasts. Gene expression of M-CSF, TNF-α, TLR4, POSTN and FAPα was unchanged by passaging, the expression of IL-6, IL-1β and TLR2 decreased due to passaging and the expression of in particular the selected osteogenesis genes (ALP, RUNX2, Osteonectin, COL1A), OPG and MKI67 increased with passaging. Worldwide, use of the same passage in laboratory experiments using primary cell cultures is the standard. Our results support this, since for certain genes, in particular osteogenesis genes, expression may alter solely due to passaging.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases are oral inflammatory diseases ranging from gingivitis to chronic periodontitis. Porphyromonas gingivalis is one of the major pathogens responsible for severe and chronic periodontitis. Plant extracts with antimicrobial activity could be considered possible alternatives to chlorhexidine, an antiseptic substance used in oral hygiene thatcan cause bacteria resistance. Here, two commercial extracts obtained from Cistus × incanus L. and Scutellaria lateriflora L. were chemically characterized usingUltra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with a Q-Exactive Hybrid Quadrupole Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer. The extracts were studied for their bioaccessibility after simulated in vitro oral digestion, their antimicrobial activity against P. gingivalis, their protective effects against cellular invasion by P. gingivalis, and their antibiofilm activity. The extracts were found to contain very complex mixtures of polyphenols, which were quite stable after in vitro simulated oral digestion and demonstrated mild, dose-dependent inhibitory activity against P. gingivalis growth. This activity increased with the combination of the two extracts. Moreover, the combination of the extracts induced a reduction in P. gingivalis HaCaT invasiveness, and the reduction in biofilm came to around 80%. In conclusion, a combination of C. incanus and S. lateriflora showed promising effects useful in the treatment of gingivitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to reveal the biological function of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-related genes (ERSGs) in periodontitis, and provide potential ERS diagnostic markers for clinical therapy of periodontitis. METHODS The differentially expressed ERSGs (DE-ERSGs) were reveled based on periodontitis-related microarray dataset in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and 295 ERS in previous study, followed by a protein-protein interaction network construction. Then, the subtypes of periodontitis were explored, followed by validation with immune cell infiltration and gene set enrichment. Two machine learning algorithms were used to reveal potential ERS diagnostic markers of periodontitis. The diagnostic effect, target drug and immune correlation of these markers were further evaluated. Finally, a microRNA(miRNA)-gene interaction network was constructed. RESULTS A total of 34 DE-ERSGs were revealed between periodontitis samples and control, followed by two subtypes investigated. There was a significant difference of ERS score, immune infiltration and Hallmark enrichment between two subtypes. Then, totally 7 ERS diagnostic markers including FCGR2B, XBP1, EDEM2, ATP2A3, ERLEC1, HYOU1 and YOD1 were explored, and the v the time-dependent ROC analysis showed a reliable result. In addition, a drug-gene network was constructed with 4 up-regulated ERS diagnostic markers and 24 drugs. Finally, based on 32 interactions, 5 diagnostic markers and 20 miRNAs, a miRNA-target network was constructed. CONCLUSIONS Up-regulated miR-671-5p might take part in the progression of periodontitis via stimulating the expression of ATP2A3. ERSGs including XBP1 and FCGR2B might be novel diagnostic marker for periodontitis.

Abstract
Local delivery of drugs or antimicrobial agents is a suitable approach in the management of periodontitis when the infection is localized deep in the pockets and does not adequately respond to mechanical debridement and/or systemic antibiotic treatment. In this context, the objective of this study was to prepare new biocomposite films with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and good mechanical properties to be applied in periodontal pockets. The composite film is eco-friendly synthesized from poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) cross-linked with oxidized chitosan (OxCS). Silver nanoparticles (AgNps) were inserted during film synthesis by adding freshly chitosan-capped AgNps colloidal solution to the polymer mixture; the addition of AgNps up to 1.44 wt.% improves the physico-chemical properties of the film. The characterization of the films was performed by FT-IR, atomic mass spectrometry, X-ray spectroscopy, and SEM. The films displayed a high swelling ratio (162%), suitable strength (1.46 MPa), and excellent mucoadhesive properties (0.6 N). Then, ibuprofen (IBF) was incorporated within the best film formulation, and the IBF-loaded PVA/OxCS-Ag films could deliver the drug in a sustained manner up to 72 h. The biocomposite films have good antimicrobial properties against representative pathogens for oral cavities. Moreover, the films are biocompatible, as demonstrated by in vitro tests on HDFa cell lines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to evaluate the levels of salivary uric acid and arginase in patients with periodontitis, generalized gingivitis, and in healthy individuals. Then, the effects of non-surgical periodontal therapy on levels of salivary arginase and uric acid were also investigated. METHODS A total of 60 subjects were divided into three groups based on periodontal health: group I comprised 20 healthy individuals; group II comprised 20 subjects who had generalized gingivitis; group III comprised 20 subjects who had generalized periodontitis. On day 0, the clinical examination of periodontal status was recorded, following which saliva samples were collected. Group II and group III subjects underwent non-surgical periodontal therapy. These patients were recalled on day 30 to collect saliva samples. The periodontal parameters were reassessed on day 90, and saliva samples were collected for analysis of salivary arginase and uric acid levels. RESULTS Group II and group III showed improvement in clinical parameters following non-surgical periodontal therapy on the 90th day. The MGI score, PPD, and CAL showed improvement. On day 0, at baseline, salivary arginase levels in group III and group II were higher than those in healthy subjects, whereas on day 0, salivary uric acid levels in group III and group II were lower than those in healthy subjects. Both on day 0 and day 90, the salivary arginase level showed a positive correlation with the periodontal parameters, whereas the salivary uric acid level was positively correlated with the periodontal parameters on day 90. CONCLUSION the level of salivary arginase was a pro-inflammatory marker and a raised level of salivary uric acid was an anti-inflammatory marker following periodontal therapy, suggesting their pivotal role in assessing periodontal status and evaluation of treatment outcome.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common oral disorder leading to tooth loss in both developed and developing regions of the world. This multifactorial condition is related to the abnormal activity of several molecular pathways, among them are oxytocin-related pathways. In this study, we enrolled 26 patients and 28 controls and assessed the expression of four oxytocin-related genes, namely, FOS, ITPR, RCAN1, and RGS2, in circulation and affected tissues of enrolled individuals using real-time PCR. Expression of FOS was downregulated in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues [ratio of mean expression (RME) = 0.23, P-value = 0.03]. Expression of FOS was also lower in total blood samples of patients compared with total controls. Expression of ITPR was downregulated in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues (RME = 0.16, P-value = 0.01). Moreover, the expression of ITPR was reduced in total blood samples of patients compared with controls (RME = 0.25, P-value = 0.03). Expression of RCAN1 was downregulated in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues (RME = 0.17, P-value = 0.01). However, the expression of RCAN1 was not different in blood samples of affected vs. unaffected individuals. Finally, the expression of RGS2 was lower in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues (RME = 0.24, P-value = 0.01) and in total blood samples of affected individuals compared with controls (RME = 0.42, P-value = 0.05). This study provides data about the association between expressions of oxytocin-related genes and the presence of periodontitis. Future studies are needed to unravel the mechanistic links and find the correlation between expressions of these genes and the pathological stage of periodontitis.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a condition caused mostly by the creation of a biofilm by the bacterium P. gingivalis, which releases toxins and damages the tooth structure. Recent research studies have reported association between dental health and neuropsychiatric illnesses. Neuroinflammation triggered by the first systemic inflammation caused by the bacterium present in the oral cavities is a plausible explanation for such a relationship. Substantial amount of evidence supports the role of neuroinflammation and dysfunction of the dopaminergic system in the pathology of ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorders). Recent epidemiological, microbiological and inflammatory findings strengthen that, periodontal bacteria, which cause systemic inflammation can contribute to neuroinflammation and finally ADHD. Although both diseases are characterized by inflammation, the specific pathways and crosslink's between periodontitis and ADHD remain unknown. Here, the authors describe the inflammatory elements of periodontitis, how this dental illness causes systemic inflammation, and how this systemic inflammation contributes to deteriorating neuroinflammation in the evolution of ADHD. Therefore, the aim of this review is to present possible links and mechanisms that could confirm the evidence of this association.

Efficacy of MMP-8 Level in Gingival Crevicular Fluid to Predict the Outcome of Nonsurgical Periodontal Treatment: A Systematic Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19053131. [PMID: 35270821 PMCID: PMC8910039 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19053131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Purpose: To explore whether baseline matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 level in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) (exposure) can predict the outcome (reduction in probing pocket depth (PPD) (outcome)) of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) (manual or ultrasonic or both) in patients with periodontitis (population/problem) after 3 months. Methods: Six databases (PubMed, Cochrane library, ProQuest, Ovid, Scopus, EBSCO) were searched for relevant articles published until 30 July 2021. Retrieved articles were passed through a three-phase filtration process on the basis of the eligibility criteria. The primary outcome was the change in PPD after 3 months. Quality of the selected articles was assessed using Cochrane Risk of Bias tool (RoB2) and Risk of Bias In Non-Randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tools. Results: From 1306 articles, five were selected for analysis. The results showed high variations in the level of GCF MMP-8 level at baseline. The average amount of reduction in PPD was 1.20 and 2.30 mm for pockets with initial depth of 4−6 mm and >6 mm, respectively. Conclusion: On the basis of available evidence, it was not possible to reach a consensus on the ability of baseline GCF MMP-8 to forecast the outcome of NSPT. This could have been due to variation in clinical and laboratory techniques used. However, consistency in mean PPD reduction after 3 months was shown.

Abstract
Periodontal disease is classically characterized by progressive destruction of the soft and hard tissues of the periodontal complex, mediated by an interplay between dysbiotic microbial communities and aberrant immune responses within gingival and periodontal tissues. Putative periodontal pathogens are enriched as the resident oral microbiota becomes dysbiotic and inflammatory responses evoke tissue destruction, thus inducing an unremitting positive feedback loop of proteolysis, inflammation, and enrichment for periodontal pathogens. Keystone microbial pathogens and sustained gingival inflammation are critical to periodontal disease progression. However, recent studies have revealed the importance of previously unidentified microbes involved in disease progression, including various viruses, phages and bacterial species. Moreover, newly identified immunological and genetic mechanisms, as well as environmental host factors, including diet and lifestyle, have been discerned in recent years as further contributory factors in periodontitis. These factors have collectively expanded the established narrative of periodontal disease progression. In line with this, new ideologies related to maintaining periodontal health and treating existing disease have been explored, such as the application of oral probiotics, to limit and attenuate disease progression. The role of systemic host pathologies, such as autoimmune disorders and diabetes, in periodontal disease pathogenesis has been well noted. Recent studies have additionally identified the reciprocated importance of periodontal disease in potentiating systemic disease states at distal sites, such as in Alzheimer's disease, inflammatory bowel diseases, and oral cancer, further highlighting the importance of the oral cavity in systemic health. Here we review long-standing knowledge of periodontal disease progression while integrating novel research concepts that have broadened our understanding of periodontal health and disease. Further, we delve into innovative hypotheses that may evolve to address significant gaps in the foundational knowledge of periodontal disease.

Abstract
Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds spotted in various fruits, vegetables, barks, tea plants, and stems and many more natural commodities. They have a multitude of applications through their anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-carcinogenic properties, along with the ability to assist in the stimulation of bone formation. Bone, a rigid connective body tissue made up of cells embedded in a mineralised matrix is maintained by an assemblage of pathways assisting osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. These have a significant impact on a plethora of bone diseases. The homeostasis between osteoblast and osteoclast formation decides the integrity and structure of the bone. The flavonoids discussed here are quercetin, kaempferol, icariin, myricetin, naringin, daidzein, luteolin, genistein, hesperidin, apigenin and several other flavonoids. The effects these flavonoids have on the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), nuclear factor kappa β (NF-kβ), Wnt/β-catenin and bone morphogenetic protein 2/SMAD (BMP2/SMAD) signalling pathways, and apoptotic pathways lead to impacts on bone remodelling. In addition, these polyphenols regulate angiogenesis, decrease the levels of inflammatory cytokines and play a crucial role in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS). Considering these important effects of flavonoids, they may be regarded as a promising agent in treating bone-related ailments in the future.

Abstract
LncRNAs act as part of non-coding RNAs at high levels of complex and stimulatory configurations in basic molecular mechanisms. Their extensive regulatory activity in the CNS continues on a small scale, from the functions of synapses to large-scale neurodevelopment and cognitive functions, aging, and can be seen in both health and disease situations. One of the vast consequences of the pathological role of dysregulated lncRNAs in the CNS due to their role in a network of regulatory pathways can be manifested in Alzheimer's as a neurodegenerative disease. The disease is characterized by two main hallmarks: amyloid plaques due to the accumulation of β-amyloid components and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) resulting from the accumulation of phosphorylated tau. Numerous studies in humans, animal models, and various cell lines have revealed the role of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. This scoping review was performed with a six-step strategy and based on the Prisma guideline by systematically searching the publications of seven databases. Out of 1,591 records, 69 articles were utterly aligned with the specified inclusion criteria and were summarized in the relevant table. Most of the studies were devoted to BACE1-AS, NEAT1, MALAT1, and SNHG1 lncRNAs, respectively, and about one-third of the studies investigated a unique lncRNA. About 56% of the studies reported up-regulation, and 7% reported down-regulation of lncRNAs expressions. Overall, this study was conducted to investigate the association between lncRNAs and Alzheimer's disease to make a reputable source for further studies and find more molecular therapeutic goals for this disease.

Abstract
Chlorhexidine (CHX) is considered the gold standard for the chemical control of bacterial plaque and is often used after surgical treatment. However, CHX employment over an extended time is responsible for side effects such as the appearance of pigmentations on the teeth and tongue; the discoloration effects are less pronounced when using a CHX-based mouthwash with added an anti-discoloration system (ADS). The aim of this study was to evaluate, using one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis combined with mass spectrometry, the possible proteomic changes induced by CHX and CHX+ADS in the supragingival dental sites susceptible to a discoloration effect. The tooth surface collected material (TSCM) was obtained by curettage after resective bone surgery from three groups of patients following a supportive therapy protocol in which a mechanical control was combined with placebo rinses or CHX or a CHX+ADS mouthwash. The proteomic analysis was performed before surgery (basal conditions) and four weeks after surgery when CHX was used (or not) as chemical plaque control. Changes in the TSCM proteome were only revealed following CHX treatment: glycolytic enzymes, molecular chaperones and elongation factors were identified as more expressed. These changes were not detected after CHX+ADS treatment. An ADS could directly limit TSCM forming and also the CHX antiseptic effect reduces its ability to alter bacterial cell permeability. However, Maillard’s reaction produces high molecular weight molecules that change the surface properties and could facilitate bacterial adhesion.

Abstract
Redondoviridae is a family of DNA viruses recently identified in the human oro-respiratory tract. However, the characteristics of this new virus family are not yet fully understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between redondoviruses and chronic periodontitis. In addition, the complete circular genome, phylogenetic relationship, and biological characteristics of novel redondoviruses were analyzed. The gingival tissues of healthy individuals (n = 120) and periodontitis patients (n = 120) were analyzed using nested polymerase chain reaction assays. The prevalence of redondovirus infection in the periodontitis group was 71.67%. Logistic regression analysis revealed an association between redondoviruses and chronic periodontitis after controlling the confounding factors (odds ratio = 2.53). Five novel redondoviruses, named ‘human periodontal circular-like virus (HPeCV)’, were identified in patients with periodontitis and detailed genetic analysis of the viruses was performed. The 3,035–3,056 bp genome contained a capsid protein, a replication-associated protein, an open reading frame 3 protein, and a stem-loop structure. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that HPeCV-1, HPeCV-10, and HPeCV-25 formed a cluster. Recombination may be common in the genomes of HPeCVs. Potential antigenic epitopes in the capsid protein, which may be involved in the host immune response, were predicted. In conclusion, periodontitis patients had a significantly higher prevalence of redondoviruses than healthy controls. Genetic characterization enhanced the current understanding of the genetic diversity and pathogenicity of redondoviruses as well as their association with periodontitis in humans. The data presented in this article will expand the current understanding of the epidemiology, genetic diversity, and pathogenicity of redondoviruses.

Abstract
The methodologies applicable for the evaluation of periodontal associated diseases are constantly evolving to provide quick, realistic, and scientifically proven results. Trends in the past followed a clinical evaluation of periodontal tissues and radiographic-based reports that formed the foundation for detection of diseases involving the structures supporting the teeth. As the confines and limitations of conventional strategies became obvious over the passage of time, hand in hand variety of techniques have evolved and experimentally justified. These improvisations are based on an improved understanding of the periodontal-pathogenic cascade. Periodontal pathogenesis and a paradigm shift from disease understanding to disease prevention and treatment entail few prerequisites that demand the objectivity of diagnostics procedure that includes sensitivity and specificity along with an explanation of the intensity of the disease, Gingival crevicular fluid an oral bio-fluid resides in the close proximity with gingival tissues have been widely used to understand and differentiate the periodontal health and diseased status. The biomarkers present in the GCF can be a reliable tool to detect the minute changes seen in the disease processes. The GCF consists of various host and bacterial-derived products as well as biomarkers which in turn can be evaluated for the diagnosis, prognosis as well as management of the periodontal disease. Thus, the review aims at describing GCF as a potential oral biofluid helpful in differentiating periodontal health and disease status.

Abstract
Introduction: Saliva is an ideal biofluid that can be collected in a noninvasive manner, enabling safe and frequent screening of various diseases. Recent studies have revealed that salivary metabolomics analysis has the potential to detect both oral and systemic cancers. Area covered: We reviewed the technical aspects, as well as applications, of salivary metabolomics for cancer detection. The topics include the effects of preconditioning and the method of sample collection, sample storage, processing, measurement, data analysis, and validation of the results. We also examined the rational relationship between salivary biomarkers and tumors distant from the oral cavity. A strategy to establish standard operating protocols for obtaining reproducible quantification data is also discussed Expert opinion: Salivary metabolomics reflects oral and systematic health status, which potently enables cancer detection. The sensitivity and specificity of each marker and their combinations have been well evaluated, but a validation study is required. Further, the standard operating protocol for each procedure should be established to obtain reproducible data before clinical usage.
