Milk oligosaccharides are high added value compounds that could be obtained by exploiting cheese whey, a byproduct of dairy industry. The objective was to compare the abundance and diversity of oligosaccharides in whey samples from domestic animals and humans. During fresh cheese making, whey samples were collected and analyzed by untargeted and targeted small molecule analysis using high-resolution mass-spectrometry.

Article Synopsis
  • Helicobacter pylori infection is linked to serious gastric issues like chronic gastritis and ulcers, with treatment often complicated by antibiotic resistance, especially in developing countries.
  • This study tested a new therapy combining oral hygiene and systemic treatment, finding that using a mouthwash with neutral electrolyzed water (NEW) improved infection eradication rates significantly.
  • Results showed that patients receiving the NEW therapy not only had higher eradication rates (84%-96%) but also experienced reduced recurrence rates and treatment failures.

Article Synopsis
  • Epidemiological studies in Mexico aim to enhance the health and economic well-being of indigenous communities, revealing that infections contribute to various health issues, including gastritis and stomach cancer.
  • The study analyzed 99 dental plaque samples from 36 families in Siltepec, Chiapas, using real-time PCR to detect specific genotypes of the bacteria and employing statistical analysis to evaluate family roles related to infection.
  • Results showed that mothers had the highest prevalence of certain genotypes, indicating a potential transmission of infections from mother to child during early life.

Objective: Mouthwash is effective in maintaining oral hygiene in patients; however, there is concern that it may adversely affect human oral mucosa. We evaluated a pH-neutral electrolyzed super-oxidized solution (ESS, tradename OxOral®) combined with dental scaling in periodontitis patients. This longitudinal study was conducted with 34 patients divided into three groups.

It is indisputable that every day it is demonstrated that natural products present diverse therapeutic benefits, which has boosted their incorporation within various products for clinical use. However, this must be accompanied by knowledge of their effect on cell lines to ensure their use is safe. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of two ethanolic extracts based on Peruvian natural products, on three human cell lines.

Background: Stage-specific embryonic antigen-4 (SSEA-4) is a marker for the identification of multipotent embryonic cells. It is also positive in neuroepithelial cells, precursor neural cells (NPC), and human dental pulp cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential morphodifferentiation and histodifferentiation to NPC of SSEA-4 positive stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED).

Objective: To evaluate the effect of the combination of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)) and a novel electrolyzed superoxidized solution at neutral pH, known as OxOral® on growth in root canals.

Methods: Sixty human teeth were used, from which root canals were infected and randomly divided into the following treatment groups: saline solution, saline solution plus Ca(OH), OxOral®, and OxOral® plus Ca(OH).

Results: A permanent reduction in bacterial growth was observed at days 1, 6, 12, and 18 after OxOral® plus Ca(OH) treatment from 4.

Article Synopsis
  • Human papilloma virus (HPV) can lead to various cancers, including oral cancers, and there's been a noted increase in oral cancer cases, possibly linked to changes in sexual behavior.
  • A study in an indigenous community in Siltepec, Chiapas, Mexico, revealed a 12.1% prevalence of HPV infection in the oral cavity, influenced by factors like gender and sexual practices, but not by tobacco or alcohol use.
  • Sequencing identified several HPV genotypes, notably HPV-13, -16, -32, -81, and -83, with HPV-16 showing high-risk variants from different lineages, highlighting significant HPV presence in this community.

The presence of in the oral cavity has been associated to the failure of antimicrobial therapy in patients with gastrointestinal infection and the development of oral diseases. However, it has been reported that the maintenance of good oral hygiene can improve the therapeutic success rates, where the use of mouthwashes with anti- activity would help to achieve it. The aim was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of OxOral® mouthwash against and its effect on biofilm formation.

Background/purpose: () infection is the most common in the world and is associated with various gastrointestinal pathologies, including chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer. The prevalence is associated with socioeconomic conditions, with this infection being more common in developing countries than in developed countries. The presence and permanence of in the oral cavity has been reported, but its role is controversial.

is an infectious agent that colonizes the gastric mucosa of half of the population worldwide. This bacterium has been recognized as belonging to group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization for the role in development of gastritis, peptic ulcers, and cancer. Due to the increase in resistance to antibiotics used in the anti- therapy, the development of an effective vaccine is an alternative of great interest, which remains a challenge.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the link between gastrointestinal disease-related genes and the presence of certain bacteria in the mouths of Mexican children without dyspeptic symptoms.
  • Out of 100 children, 38% tested positive for a specific oral bacteria gene, with a notable connection found between oral infection and gingival health.
  • The research indicated that specific genotypes were more common in cases of gingivitis, suggesting that gastrointestinal-related bacteria in the mouth may play a role in the progression of gingivitis in asymptomatic children.

Helicobacter pylori is an infectious agent commonly associated with gastrointestinal diseases. The use of probiotics to treat this infection has been documented, however, their potential antimicrobial metabolites have not yet been investigated. In the present study, the effect of reuterin produced by Lactobacillus reuteri on H.
