Cross-kingdom dynamics of the subgingival bacteriome and mycobiome: A pilot study on the effects of a novel HA-H₂O₂-Glycine formulation to treat periodontitis.

OBJECTIVES: Traditional periodontal therapy primarily focuses on bacterial biofilm control; however, recent evidence also suggests a critical role for the oral mycobiome. This study evaluated the clinical and ecological impact of a novel mouthwash formulation containing hyaluronic acid (HA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and glycine on periodontal patients METHODS: This prospective, randomized split-mouth trial included 13 adult participants with periodontitis treated with HA-H2O2-glycine formula (BMG0703A) used twice a day for seven days. Subgingival plaque samples were collected from periodontal pocket and healthy control sites at baseline (T0) and one-week post-treatment (T1). Microbial and fungal communities were characterized using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) of the 16S rRNA and ITS2 regions. Linear Mixed Models (LMM) and Spearman correlation were used to assess taxonomic shifts and cross-kingdom relationships. RESULTS: Sequencing revealed a promising ecological shift: the bacteriome shifted from anaerobic dominance (Olsenella, Peptostreptococcus) toward a health-associated aerobic profile, with Rothia near-doubling (11.91% to 22.68%). The mycobiome underwent a "normalization" effect: Candida abundance decreased significantly (22.8% to 9.1%), while fungal Shannon diversity in pockets returned to healthy-site levels. Inter-kingdom analysis identified antagonistic relationships between expanding commensal bacteria and opportunistic fungi, suggesting that the intervention may help re-establish a protective bacterial niche. CONCLUSIONS: The HA-H2O2-glycine formulation seems to facilitate a rapid, cross-kingdom modulation of the subgingival niche. By reducing anaerobic pathogens and normalizing the mycobiome it appear to induce short-term changes, suggesting potential as adjunctive strategy in periodontal management. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The present work underlines the possible cross-Kingdom effects of a novel compound.

The effect of zalunfiban on high sensitivity cardiac troponin and the association with clinical outcomes in patients with STEMI.

BACKGROUND: Among individuals with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a single subcutaneous injection of the short-acting glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blocker antagonist zalunfiban at first medical contact significantly improved the primary outcome including clinical endpoints. The impact of zalunfiban on Myocardial Infarction (MI) size and association with downstream outcomes remains unclear. METHODS: In a prespecified analysis, we studied results among study participants treated with 2 doses of zalunfiban who had core laboratory measurements concentrations of hs-cTnT. RESULTS: More elevated hs-cTnT concentrations at presentation were associated with less resolution of ST deviation (P = .006) and more frequent Q wave development (P < .001). At coronary angiography more elevated hs-cTnT at presentation was associated with higher thrombus grade and worse epicardial and myocardial perfusion (all P < .05). In multivariable analyses, higher hs-cTnT concentrations at 24 hours were associated with greater adjusted risk for all-cause death (odds ratio [OR] 1.83 per log unit increase; P = .03), cardiovascular death (OR 1.83 per log unit increase; P = .03), heart failure (OR 2.74 per log unit increase; P < .001) or the composite of death and heart failure (P < .001) by 30 days. At 24 hours, those treated with zalunfiban had lower hs-cTnT compared to placebo (P = .04) and across multiples &#x2265; 10 to &#x2265; 1,000 times elevation, treatment with zalunfiban resulted in smaller hs-cTnT determined MI size. CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with STEMI, more elevated concentrations of hs-cTnT are associated with worse measures of reperfusion and higher-risk for short-term death or heart failure. A single dose of zalunfiban at first medical contact reduced MI size. TRIAL REGISTRATION: A phase 3 study of zalunfiban in subjects with ST-elevation MI (CELEBRATE); NCT04825743.
