Phylogenetic and functional gene structure shifts of the oral microbiomes in periodontitis patients

Abstract: Determining the composition and function of subgingival dental plaque is crucial to understanding human periodontal health and disease, but it is challenging because of the complexity of the interactions between human microbiomes and human body. Here, we examined the phylogenetic and functional gene differences between periodontal and healthy individuals using MiSeq sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons and a specific functional gene array (a combination of GeoChip 4.0 for biogeochemical processes and HuMiChip… Show more

“…These findings agree with those from Davis et al (2013), where Firmicutes were found to be the most abundant in mild periodontitis and also with surveys of human plaque where higher proportions of Spirochetes, Synergistetes and Firmicutes were observed in periodontitis (Abusleme et al, 2013;Li et al, 2014). Another human study by Griffen et al (2012) confirmed associations with periodontitis for the red-complex species Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola and Tannerella forsythia (Socransky et al, 1998) along with other species such as Filifactor alocis.…”

“…In the present study, we did not seek to address the similarity (or otherwise) of the microbiota of teeth and dental implants. However, the dominant bacterial taxa in the plaque in peri-implant sites were similar to those of teeth (Figure S2)3536. We assumed that progression of a healthy implant to PI was similar to the development of periodontitis, and, in this preliminary study, we aimed to identify potential “key pathogens” of peri-implant diseases, which may be less abundant in health.…”

“…fatty acid metabolism and acetyl-coenzyme A degradation, aromatic amino acid degradation, ferrodoxin oxidation, and energy-coupling factor (ECF) class transporters) [42]. Enrichment in the metagenome of genes involved in virulence factors, amino acid metabolism and glycosaminoglycan and pyrimidine degradation in periodontitis, suggest their potential importance in periodontal pathogenesis, while genes involved in amino acid synthesis and pyrimidine synthesis are present at significantly lower relative abundance compared with healthy group [46]. …”
