Background: Oral and gut microbiomes have been associated with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Although the role of the gut microbiome and gut dysbiosis in ADRD has been extensively studied, research on the oral microbiome is lacking. Moreover, the synergetic contribution of oral and gut microbiomes to ADRD is unexplored.

Objective: Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors reduce inflammation in a number of in vitro and in vivo models. This finding led to the development of a novel MAO-B selective inhibitor (RG0216) designed to reduce blood-brain barrier penetration. To elucidate RG0216's regulatory role in inflammation-relevant signaling pathways, we employed a transcriptome analytic approach to identify genes that are differentially regulated by RG0216 and then globally identified which inflammation-relevant biological signaling pathways were altered by this drug.

Background: The oral cavity is a complex environment which harbours the second largest and most diverse microflora after the gastrointestinal tract. The bacteriome in the oral cavity plays a pivotal role in promoting the health and well-being of human beings. Gingivitis, an inflammation of the gingival tissue, arises due to plaque accumulation on the teeth, often leads to periodontitis.

As ruminants are frequently affected by periodontal diseases, understanding their microbial communities is crucial. In this pilot study, we analyzed subgingival biofilm samples of young cattle across different states: clinically healthy (n=5), gingivitis (n=5), and periodontitis (n=5) using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and co-occurrence network analysis. The findings revealed that Proteobacteria was the predominant phylum across all conditions, with Fusobacteriota constituting 27.

Background: Previous studies have shown that the dietary inflammatory index (DII) is associated with different health outcomes. However, few studies have investigated the relationship between DII and oral health. We aimed to assess the association between energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) and periodontal disease.
