        Periodontitis, especially in its chronic form, is one of the leading causes of tooth loss, significantly affecting the quality of life in the modern era of aging society. Recent studies have revealed a potential correlation between periodontitis and various systemic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and Alzheimer’s dementia (AD). With the body of epidemiologic evidence that links these separate disease entities, several lines of hypotheses have been postulated to provide mechanistic understandings that mostly comprises abnormal regulation of immunologic and inflammatory signaling. In this review, we revisit the experimental findings that describe virulence factors derived from Porphyromonas gingivalis, including gingipains and lipopolysaccharides, as well as their roles in the pathophysiology of AD. In addition, we address potential immunologic challenges imposed by this bacterial pathogen contributing to progression of AD.
