Quorum ‐sensing molecule dihydroxy‐2,3‐pentanedione and its analogs as regulators of epithelial integrity
ConclusionThe results indicate that isobutyl‐DPD has the potential to enhance the integrity of the epithelium by stimulating the formation of occluding, without affecting the proliferation or gelatinolytic enzyme activities of the exposed cells. The modulatory effect of an AI‐2 analog on the epithelial cell response is shown for the first time. (Source: Journal of Periodontal Research)

Lipoprotein modifications by gingipains of Porphyromonas gingivalis
ConclusionsPorphyromonas gingivalis has the potential to change the expression of lipoproteins in blood, which may represent a crucial link between periodontitis and CVD. (Source: Journal of Periodontal Research)

The role of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer glycosylation in regulating matrix metalloproteinases in periodontitis
ConclusionWe conclude that EMMPRIN glycosylation participates in the regulation of MMP‐2 and MMP‐9 production through mediating the interaction of HIOECs and HGFs. Inhibiting EMMPRIN glycosylation can reduce the activation of MMP‐2 and MMP‐9 and suppress the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the HIOEC/HGF co‐culture model. Therefore, this study suggests that EMMPRIN glycosylation may affect the host immune‐inflammatory response by regulating MMPs in periodontitis. (Source: Journal of Periodontal Research)
