TLDR
The data suggest that smoking influences both the composition of the nascent biofilm and the host response to this colonization, suggesting that smoking favors early acquisition and colonization of pathogens in oral biofilms.Abstract:
Recent evidence suggests that smoking affects the composition of the disease-associated subgingival biofilm, yet little is known about its effects during the formation of this biofilm. The present investigation was undertaken to examine the contributions of smoking to the composition and proinflammatory characteristics of the biofilm during de novo plaque formation. Marginal and subgingival plaque and gingival crevicular fluid samples were collected from 15 current smokers and from 15 individuals who had never smoked (nonsmokers) following 1, 2, 4, and 7 days of undisturbed plaque formation. 16S rRNA gene cloning and sequencing were used for bacterial identification, and multiplex bead-based flow cytometry was used to quantify the levels of 27 immune mediators. Smokers demonstrated a highly diverse, relatively unstable initial colonization of both marginal and subgingival biofilms, with lower niche saturation than that seen in nonsmokers. Periodontal pathogens belonging to the genera Fusobacterium, Cardiobacterium, Synergistes, and Selenomonas, as well as respiratory pathogens belonging to the genera Haemophilus and Pseudomonas, colonized the early biofilms of smokers and continued to persist over the observation period, suggesting that smoking favors early acquisition and colonization of pathogens in oral biofilms. Smokers also demonstrated an early proinflammatory response to this colonization, which persisted over 7 days. Further, a positive correlation between proinflammatory cytokine levels and commensal bacteria was observed in smokers but not in nonsmokers. Taken together, the data suggest that smoking influences both the composition of the nascent biofilm and the host response to this colonization.read more

Fast Tree: Computing Large Minimum-Evolution Trees with Profiles instead of a Distance Matrix
TL;DR: FastTree as mentioned in this paper uses sequence profiles of internal nodes in the tree to implement neighbor-joining and uses heuristics to quickly identify candidate joins, then uses nearest-neighbor interchanges to reduce the length of the tree.

TL;DR: In a study of 1204 US adults, this article assessed the relationship of cigarette smoking with the oral microbiome and found that current smokers had lower relative abundance of the phylum Proteobacteria (4.6%) compared with never smokers (11.7%) with no difference between former and never smokers.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated changes in the microbiome associated with oral cancers, profiled cancers and anatomically matched contralateral normal tissue from the same patient by sequencing 16S rDNA hypervariable region amplicons.
Changes in Abundance of oral Microbiota Associated with oral cancer
TL;DR: Weighted UniFrac principal coordinates analysis based on 12 taxa separated most cancers from other samples with greatest separation of node positive cases and begin to develop a framework for exploiting the oral microbiome for monitoring oral cancer development, progression and recurrence.

Current perspective of the impact of smoking on the progression and treatment of periodontitis.
TL;DR: Clinicians should strongly advise smokers to enroll in cessation strategies, even temporarily, in order to improve the overall outcome and some of the reported deleterious effects of smoking on periodontal tissues have been reported to be reversible upon participation in smoking-cessation programs.

Microbial complexes in subgingival plaque
TL;DR: The purpose of the present investigation was to attempt to define communities using data from large numbers of plaque samples and different clustering and ordination techniques, which related strikingly to clinical measures of periodontal disease particularly pocket depth and bleeding on probing.

FastTree: Computing Large Minimum Evolution Trees with Profiles instead of a Distance Matrix
TL;DR: FastTree is a method for constructing large phylogenies and for estimating their reliability, instead of storing a distance matrix, that uses sequence profiles of internal nodes in the tree to implement Neighbor-Joining and uses heuristics to quickly identify candidate joins.
