Nonhuman primates have been shown to develop periodontitis with clinical and demographic features similar to humans. This preclinical disease model is well-positioned to advance the elucidation of novel biologic-based preventive and therape...
GcrR in Streptococcus mutans Inhibits the Morphological Transition of Candida albicans Through Ras1-cAMP/PKA Pathway in the Cross-Kingdom Biofilms [0.03%]
变异链球菌中的GcrR通过Ras1-cAMP / PKA信号通路抑制假丝酵母白色素在跨界的生物膜中的形态转换
Bin Zhang,Shihao Hou,Anqi Zhang et al.
Bin Zhang et al.
The dual-species biofilms formed by Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans exhibit enhanced cariogenic potential due to the production of extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs). The response regulator GcrR in S. mutans negatively regulates...
The ComEA/ComEC Operon is Critical for Nitrosative Stress Tolerance by an Oral Commensal [0.03%]

Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), a key pathogen in periodontal disease, is suggested to be involved in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, the molecular mechanism remains unclear. We previously reported that Pg-released oute...
Streptococcus mutans CcpA Promotes Biofilm Exopolysaccharide Production and Virulence Gene Expression [0.03%]
变异链球菌CcpA促进生物被膜外多糖生成及毒力基因表达
Yujie Zhang,Zhanyi Chen,Meiling Jing et al.
Yujie Zhang et al.
Streptococcus mutans is a key cariogenic pathogen of dental caries due to its strong ability to synthesize extracellular glucans and form biofilms. Glucosyltransferases, encoded by gtfB/C/D genes in S. mutans, are responsible for producing ...
