Periodontitis, a prevalent and costly oral disease, remains incompletely understood in its etiopathogenesis. The conventional model attributes it to pathogenic bacteria, but emerging evidence suggests dysbiosis involving bacteria, herpesviruses, and an exaggerated host immune response. Among herpesviruses, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) closely links to severe periodontitis, yet the mechanisms underlying EBV-related pathogenesis remain elusive.

EPs consist of extracellular vesicles (EVs) made up of exosomes, microvesicles, and other membranous vesicles; and extracellular condensates (ECs) that are non-membranous carriers of lipid-protein-nucleic acid aggregates. The purity of EVs|ECs, which ultimately depends on the isolation method used to obtain them is critical, particularly EVs|ECs from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract that is colonized by a huge number of enteric bacteria.

Background: Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Brucella spp., affecting various animals and humans, leading to significant economic and public health impacts. Traditional diagnostic methods, mainly serological, often fail to detect seronegative carriers, which continue to spread the infection.

Infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in the brains of carriers increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We previously found that latent HSV-1 in a three-dimensional in vitro model of -heterozygous human brain tissue was reactivated in response to neuroinflammation caused by exposure to other pathogens. Because traumatic brain injury also causes neuroinflammation, we surmised that brain injury might similarly reactivate latent HSV-1.

: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects more than 90 percent of the human population. In pediatric patients, the innate immune response against EBV primary infection plays a key role. Monocytes and macrophages can have distinct functions depending on the microenvironment surrounding them.
