Phospholipid Asymmetry in Biological Membranes: Is the Role of Phosphatidylethanolamine Underappreciated?

Abhijit Chakrabarti

Summary: The asymmetric distribution of phospholipids in cell membranes, particularly focusing on phosphatidylserine (PS), has been extensively studied. This commentary argues for the importance of also considering phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), a highly abundant membrane lipid with unique characteristics and potential biological roles.

Summary: PS and PSA liposomes reduced serum LDL-C and TC levels, decreased plaque size and severity, significantly reduced intima-media thickness in the PS group, suppressed ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression, induced TGF-beta expression, and enhanced CEC from macrophages to nanoliposomes in the PSA group.

Berberine as a promising natural compound for the treatment of periodontal disease: A focus on anti-inflammatory properties

Saeed Mohammadian Haftcheshmeh et al.

Summary: Accumulated evidence suggests that berberine (BBR), a bioactive alkaloid compound isolated from Coptidis rhizoma, has potential anti-inflammatory properties in controlling or treating inflammatory diseases, including periodontitis. Studies have shown that BBR can reduce the expression and secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators, making it a promising treatment option for periodontitis and other inflammatory diseases.

Metabolomic Evaluation of Chronic Periodontal Disease in Older Adults

Wellington F. Rodrigues et al.

Summary: The study evaluated metabolic biomarkers for diagnosing chronic periodontal disease in older adults, identifying potential diagnostic markers such as 5-aminovaleric acid and serine 3TMS derivative in the crevicular fluid. These metabolites could potentially aid in early detection and diagnosis of chronic periodontal disease in older adults.

Metabolomics of gingival crevicular fluid to identify biomarkers for periodontitis: A systematic review with meta-analysis

Giacomo Baima et al.

Summary: This systematic review examined the use of specific metabolites in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) for diagnosing periodontitis. The results showed differential expression of certain metabolites in GCF across different periodontal conditions, highlighting their potential for investigating periodontal pathophysiology and site-specific diagnosis. Oxidative stress-related molecules, particularly malondialdehyde and 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine, were consistently associated with periodontitis.

Neuroprotective phosphatidylserine liposomes alleviate depressive-like behavior related to stroke through neuroinflammation attenuation in the mouse hippocampus

Alireza Partoazar et al.

Summary: Oral administration of phosphatidylserine liposomes (PSL) may improve post-stroke depression (PSD) by reducing inflammation and protecting the brain. The results demonstrated that PSL significantly reduced depressive symptoms and exerted a protective effect on the brain by reducing neuroinflammation in mice.

Berberine exerts anti-tumor activity in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma by modulating c-myc/CD47 axis

Shuai Ren et al.

Summary: This study revealed that berberine could suppress CD47 expression in DLBCL, enhance macrophage phagocytosis, and improve the efficacy of anti-CD47 antibody and rituximab. The establishment of a prognostic model based on CD47 and CD68 provided novel insights into DLBCL treatment and potential therapeutics.

Oral health's inextricable connection to systemic health: Special populations bring to bear multimodal relationships and factors connecting periodontal disease to systemic diseases and conditions

Yvonne L. Kapila

Summary: The landscape of dentistry is changing, with emerging studies showing the intricate connection between oral and systemic health. Various factors such as pathogens, genetics, environmental influences, and immune responses play a role in shaping the development of oral and systemic health. Special populations highlight the importance of understanding the multimodal relationships between oral and systemic health in different groups of individuals.

The Phospholipid N-Methyltransferase and Phosphatidylcholine Synthase Pathways and the ChoXWV Choline Uptake System Involved in Phosphatidylcholine Synthesis Are Widely Conserved in Most, but Not All Brucella Species

Beatriz Aragon-Aranda et al.

Summary: Brucellae use phosphatidylcholine to mimic eukaryotic features and evade host innate immune responses. There are two known synthesis pathways - Pmt and Pcs, and some Brucella strains synthesize phosphatidylcholine exclusively via the Pcs pathway.

Should We Be Concerned about the Association of Diabetes Mellitus and Periodontal Disease in the Risk of Infection by SARS-CoV-2? A Systematic Review and Hypothesis

Miguel Angel Casillas Santana et al.

Summary: The article systematically reviewed the existing evidence on the relationship between periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus with the increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. It hypothesized a correlation between periodontal disease, diabetes mellitus, and the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection through the expression of ACE2 in periodontal tissue.

Local and systemic mechanisms linking periodontal disease and inflammatory comorbidities

George Hajishengallis et al.

Summary: Periodontitis is causally linked to the development of other chronic inflammatory diseases outside the oral mucosa, and intervention studies have shown that local treatment of periodontitis can ameliorate surrogate markers of comorbid conditions. Experimental animal studies have further strengthened the potential causal link by establishing biologically plausible and clinically consistent mechanisms. Understanding the impact of disseminated periodontal pathogens and systemic inflammation associated with periodontitis on extra-oral pathologies may lead to new therapeutic options to reduce the risk of periodontitis-associated comorbidities.
