FimA has been characterized as an important virulence factor for Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg). These structures play a major role in the mechanisms of adhesion and invasion of Pg to host cells, and can induce cellular activation and cytokines release. FimA can also promote biofilm formation and induce immuno-inflammatory response of host cells. Many studies have characterized FimA to be associated with periodontitis and cardiovascular disease. Pg strains are classified into six types based on divergent nucleotide sequences of the fimA gene (types Ⅰ、Ⅰb、Ⅱ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ andⅤ). The expression of fimbriae is regulated by the fimA gene, which may be the key factor that leads to virulence diversities of Pg, At present, the research on the pathogenesis of FimA mainly focuses on periodontitis and atherosclerosis, which is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of diseases. This paper reviewed the pathogenic effect of FimA in the development of above mentioned two diseases and its application in the prevention.

Objective:To study the antimicrobial properties of CaO/ZnO core-shell nanoparticles.Methods:The CaO/ZnO core-shell nanoparticles were prepared via precipitation method.The pH and calcium ion release from the samples which composed of eugenol and nanoparticles were examined respectively.The form of the particles was observed under electron microscope,the ions were analysed by inductively coupled plasma(ICP).The antibacterial activities against Streptococcus mutans,Enterococcus faecalis,Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were evaluated by agar diffusion test (ADT).Results:CaO/ZnO core-shell nanoparticles were spherical with core-shell structure and with the diameter of 80-90 nm.The calcium ion release and pH were gradually increasing from the nanoparticles in PBS.The antibacterial activity of CaO/ZnO core-shell nanoparticles-eugenol was significantly greater than that of iRoot SP and zinc oxide-eugenol sealer(P<0.01).Conclusion:CaO/ZnO core-shell nanoparticles possess antibacterial activity.
