The Effect of Bacterial Composition Shifts in the Oral Microbiota on Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurological disorder, despite significant advances in medical science, has not yet been definitively cured, and the exact causes of the disease remain unclear. Due to the importance of AD in the clinic, large expenses are spent annually to deal with this neurological disorder, and neurologists warn of an alarm to increase this disease in the elderly people in the near future. It has been believed that microbiota dysbiosis lead to Alzheimer’s as a multi-step disease. In this regard, the presence of footprints of perturbations in the oral microbiome and the predominance of pathogenic bacteria and their effect on the nervous system especially AD is a very interesting topic that has been considered by researchers in the last decade. Some studies have looked at the mechanisms by which oral microbiota cause AD. However, many aspects of this interaction are still unclear as to how oral microbiota composition can contribute to this disease. Understanding this interaction requires extensive collaboration by interdisciplinary researchers to explore all aspects of the issue. So, in this review has attempted to give the mechanisms of shift of oral microbiota in AD in order to reveals the link between microbiota composition and this disease with the help of researchers from different fields.

The therapeutic effect of engineered phage, derived protein and enzymes against superbug bacteria

“…By reducing the number of species targeted by bacteriophage, the population of nontarget species is balanced, but there is an inherent risk that these species will become resistant to phages. A genetically modified phage, however, was an appropriate strategy for balancing the composition of the microbiota communities (Gibb et al, 2021; Hsu et al, 2019; Moghadam, Bakhshayesh, et al, 2022; Taati Moghadam et al, 2022). By disrupting the biofilm mechanism, bacteria can become multicellular, attached to various surfaces, including living tissues, medical devices, food, water pipes, and industrial equipment by an extracellular matrix polysaccharide.…”
