Journal ArticleDOI

Pyrosequencing reveals unique microbial signatures associated with healthy and failing dental implants.

TL;DR: Peri-implantitis is a microbially heterogeneous infection with predominantly gram-negative species, and is less complex than periodontitis, whereas the periodontal community in both health and disease differs significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progressive multiple sclerosis patients show substantial lesion activity that correlates with clinical disease severity and sex: a retrospective autopsy cohort analysis

TL;DR: In progressive MS, there is substantial inflammatory lesion activity at time to death, and identification of mixed active/inactive lesions on MRI is necessary to determine whether they can be used as a prognostic tool in living MS patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

The subgingival microbiome of clinically healthy current and never smokers.

TL;DR: Smokers demonstrated a highly diverse, pathogen-rich, commensal-poor, anaerobic microbiome that is more closely aligned with a disease-associated community in clinically healthy individuals, suggesting that it creates an at-risk-for-harm environment that is primed for a future ecological catastrophe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of AAV serotypes for gene delivery to dorsal root ganglion neurons.

TL;DR: AAV5 is a highly effective gene therapy vector for primary sensory neurons following direct injection into the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) using histological quantification and qPCR for efficiency and persistence of transgene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep sequencing identifies ethnicity-specific bacterial signatures in the oral microbiome.

TL;DR: Analysis of dental plaque and saliva samples from 192 subjects belonging to four major ethnicities showed a significant association between ethnic affiliation and the composition of the oral microbiome; to the extent that microbial signatures appear to be capable of discriminating between ethnicities.
