Background: Hyperlipidemia is a well-established systemic metabolic disorder and a significant risk factor for periodontitis, a localized inflammatory condition; however, the precise mechanisms underpinning this comorbidity remain uncharacterized. Emerging evidence implicates the gut microbiota ...
AIM: The role of lipids in periodontitis has not been well studied. Thus, this study aimed to explore periodontitis-associated lipid profile changes and identify differentially expressed lipid metabolites in gingival tissues.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Gingival...

Background: This study aims to comprehensively characterize the dynamic succession of the salivary microbiome and metabolic reprogramming in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients across progressive stages of periodontitis (Stage I–IV) using an integrated multi-omics approach. We specifica...
