Abstract

United States. The trigeminal nerve might be the source of orof facial pain. Pain can be difficult to diagnose and treat due to the variability of pain complaints. miRNA 221-3p could be a potential biomarker for pain. Genetic polymorphisms and genetic mutations can lead to changes in the activity of inflammatory mediators, sex hormones, matrix-degrading enzymes, and the immune system, which affect bone remodeling homeostasis in the temporomandibular joint.Method: Scientific databases PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched for articles published between 2013 and 2023 in order to conduct the study. 168 carefully selected publications providing information on possible biomarkers, particularly miRNA 221-3p, were included in the review of the literatureResult: Genetic polymorphisms and genetic mutations can lead to changes in the activity of inflammatory mediators, sex hormones, matrix-degrading enzymes, and the immune system, which affect bone remodeling homeostasis in the temporomandibular joint. In addition, activity changes were also observed in neurotransmitters and pain receptors, which resulted in relatively high pain sensitivity. Thus, this condition also increases susceptibility to TMD. Genetic analysis and biomarkers of temporomandibular disorders may improve sensitivity and specificity measures in diagnosing and treating patients with TMDConclusion: As a multifactorial disease, genetic factors are risk factors for TMD. Genetic polymorphisms and genetic mutations can lead to changes in the activity of inflammatory mediators, sex hormones, matrix-degrading enzymes, and the immune system, which affect bone remodeling homeostasis in the TMD

Abstract

Background: Biofilms are involved in a wide variety of microbial infections, including dental caries and periodontitis. The use of probiotics has been a promising prevention and treatment modality with which to combat biofilm-related diseases in the oral cavity. The probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri has been proven to reduce gingivitis and plaque index inside the oral cavity. These bacteria can be found in the digestive system and also in the human oral cavity. Objective: The aim of this study was to identify L. reuteri in the saliva of Indonesian young adults. Methods: Forty saliva samples were collected from 18–24 year-old Indonesian subjects. DNA extraction was performed, and then, the identification of L. reuteri was accomplished using PCR. Six subjects showed positive results. The positive samples were cultured in Rogosa Agar for 24 hours at 37°C anaerobically. Several single colonies were further cultured separately in broth medium before DNA extraction and PCR identification were performed. The four thickest bands were selected for DNA sequencing. Results: An analysis performed using BLAST showed that two of the L. reuteri strains obtained from the Indonesian saliva isolates had 96% (isolate 3.11) and 95% (isolate 5.14) values. This confirmed the presence of new strains based on average nucleotide identity (ANI). The isolate strains of 3.11 and 5.14 have been registered at DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession number LC382415 and LC382416, respectively. Conclusion: L. reuteri novel strain can be isolated from the saliva of Indonesian young adults.  Further studies involving biochemical tests and phenotypic analysis are needed to better understand these new L. reuteri strains.

Abstract

Periodontitis is a persistent inflammatory condition caused by a buildup of oral bacteria that damages the tissues around the teeth. It is defined by the deterioration of these tissues, which can result in tooth loss if not treated. The extent of periodontitis is influenced by various factors, including the host's immune response to bacteria that cause periodontal disease. Periodontal infections induce the differentiation of CD4+ T cells into various subsets, including Th1, Th2, Th17, Tregs, and other subsets. This review aimed to determine if there is an association between different subsets of CD4+ T cells and the severity of periodontitis. The research conducted a scoping review, which utilized the scoping review method to systematically map and analyze the literature results on the subject issue. The article search method employed Scopus, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases, and a manual search was also conducted using keywords and the Boolean Operators technique. The publications were chosen based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR) flow, following the established criteria for inclusion and exclusion. As a result, 11 relevant publications were gathered and subsequently examined, focusing on the CD4+ T cell subsets in individuals with periodontitis. The publications show that individuals with periodontitis display a more prominent expression of subgroups of T cells. Moreover, the severity of periodontitis is strongly influenced by the host's immune response, particularly the balance between proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory CD4+ T cell subsets.
