Research done in mice shows that the mouth-dwelling bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis can travel from the mouth to the pancreas, resulting in lesions that lead to cancer.

The findings suggest that lysine lactylation contributes to metabolic regulation in bacteria and that GNAT13 may limit sucrose-driven biofilm formation.
Oncology
The findings of a recent study suggest that the composition of the mouth microbiota can be used to predict the recurrence of oral cancer.
Scientific research
The findings of a recent study imply that Fusobacterium nucleatum may play a causal role in worsening RA, offering potential therapeutic targets for effectively alleviating RA symptoms.

Cocaine users have an altered gut and oral microbiota composition and function, which can be rescued by rTMS-induced cocaine abstinence.
Scientific research
The findings suggest that microbes can occasionally enter the bloodstream from other body sites without causing disease, but they do not support the idea of a common blood microbiota.
Dentistry, Infectiology
The findings of a new study suggest that periodontal disease may contribute to rheumatoid arthritis by triggering specific immune responses.
Gastroenterology, Pediatrics
A recent study suggests that people who spend time together share similar gut microbiotas — with some microbes being largely transmitted between friends and relatives.
