1. Barns kunskaper kring parodontala sjukdomar och dess sjukdomsförlopp : En enkätstudie
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Jönköping/HHJ. Oral hälsaSammanfattning : Bakgrund: Gingivit och parodontit benämns som parodontala sjukdomar som främst initieras av bakterier, oftast i form av dentalt plack. Parodontit kan uppstå som följd av en obehandlad gingivit som har progredierat. Sjukdomen förekommer i olika svårighetsgrader, såsom kroniskt och aggressivt tillstånd, och kan förekomma hos barn.

2. Characterization of Macrophage Activation Induced by Leukotoxin from Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologiSammanfattning : ABSTRACT Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), is a gram-negative, facultative anaerobe, non-motile coccobacilli colonizing the human oral cavity and is strongly associated with localized aggressive periodontitis (LAP). Aa possesses several virulence mechanisms, among others; Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin found in the outer membrane of Aa and Leukotoxin (LtxA), an exotoxin attached to the bacterial cell surface or in outer membrane vesicles and which has been correlating with periodontal disease mostly.

3. The importance of OuterMembrane Protein A in SerumResistance in Aggregatibacteractinomycetemcomitans serotype astrain D7SS
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologiSammanfattning : The Gram-negative bacterium Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is primarily associatedwith aggressive forms of periodontal disease. Additionally, it has occasionally been found to causemetastatic infections in non-oral sites. This requires the ability to evade the bactericidal activity ofthe complement system of the humoral immune system. LÄS MER
4. Type IV secretion genes in cagE-negative Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotype b
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/TandläkarutbildningSammanfattning : Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative bacterium that plays an important role in the development of aggressive periodontitis. The cagE gene, which encodes a putative exotoxin, has been found to be present in highly leukotoxic serotype b strains. LÄS MER
5. Quantification of Biofilm Formation of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans with Various Genotype and Phenotype
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologiSammanfattning : ABSTRACT Biofilm is associated to many chronic infections among which periodontitis in one. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a related bacterium associated to aggressive periodontitis with early onset in younger individuals. In a previous study where bacterial samples were collected from adolescents in Ghana, a specific genotype of A. LÄS MER
