The Oral Microbiota01:27

The Oral Microbiota

52
The oral microbiome includes a complex ecosystem comprising over 700 microbial species, identified through genomic sequencing and culture-based analyses to date. This community includes a core microbiome, found universally among individuals, and a variable component influenced by environmental factors such as diet, lifestyle, and host genetics. Site-specific conditions, including oxygen gradients, pH levels, and nutrient availability, determine the spatial distribution of these microorganisms...

Immunodeficiency Diseases01:25

Immunodeficiency Diseases

3.3K
Immunodeficiency disorders are conditions in which the immune system's ability to fight infectious disease and cancer is compromised or entirely absent. The immune system comprises a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body from potentially harmful invaders. When this system is deficient or not functioning properly, it leaves the body susceptible to infections, diseases, or other complications.
There are three main causes of immunodeficiency...

Autoimmune Disorders01:29

Autoimmune Disorders

2.3K
Autoimmune diseases are a group of disorders in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own cells, tissues, and organs. This results from an overactive immune response against substances and tissues normally present in the body. Let's delve into the concept and mechanism of autoimmune diseases from an immune system point of view, explore different causes and examples of such diseases, and discuss potential solutions.

Oral Cavity01:11

Oral Cavity

4.0K
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection01:26

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

14.7K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Area of Science:

  • Oral medicine
  • Immunology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Immune-mediated diseases of the oral cavity are infrequent but can significantly impact patient health.
  • Common examples include oral lichen planus, pemphigus, erythema multiforme, epidermolysis bullosa, and systemic lupus erythematosus.
  • Both cellular and humoral immunity are implicated in chronic and recurrent oral lesions affecting epithelial and connective tissues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of early and accurate diagnosis of immune-mediated oral diseases.
  • To emphasize the role of immune status evaluation in treatment planning.
  • To underscore the impact of proper management on patient prognosis and quality of life.

Main Methods:

  • Diagnostic confirmation relies on biopsy, direct and indirect immunofluorescence, immune precipitation, and immunoblotting.
  • Therapeutic agent selection necessitates a comprehensive evaluation of the patient's immune status.
  • Identification of aggravating or provoking factors is crucial for effective management.

Main Results:

  • Immune-mediated oral lesions can be self-limiting, but often require specific diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
  • Accurate diagnosis through various immunological tests is essential.
  • Tailored treatment based on immune status and provoking factors leads to better outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Early and precise diagnosis of immune-mediated oral diseases is critical for effective treatment planning.
  • Thorough evaluation of immune status and contributing factors guides therapeutic decisions.
