Cognitive impairment (CI) is a common complication of the non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), including PD with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and PD dementia. Recent studies reported the oral dysbiosis in PD and CI, respectively. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), a pathogen of oral dysbiosis, plays an important role in PD, whose lysine-gingipain (Kgp) could lead to AD-type pathologies. No previous study investigated the composition of oral microbiota and role of P. gingivalis in PD-MCI. This study aimed to investigate the differences of oral microbiota composition, P. gingivalis copy number, and Kgp genotypes among PD-MCI, PD with normal cognition (PD-NC) and periodontal status-matched control (PC) groups. The oral bacteria composition, the copy number of P. gingivalis, and the Kgp genotypes in gingival crevicular fluid from PD-MCI, PD-NC, and PC were analyzed using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing, quantitative real-time PCR, and MseI restriction. We found that the structures of oral microbiota in PD-MCI group were significantly different compared to that in PD-NC and PC group. The relative abundances of Prevotella, Lactobacillus, Megasphaera, Atopobium, and Howardella were negatively correlated with cognitive score. Moreover, there was a significant difference of Kgp genotypes among the three groups. The predominant Kgp genotypes of P. gingivalis in the PD-MCI group were primarily Kgp II, whereas in the PD-NC group, it was mainly Kgp I. The Kgp II correlated with lower MMSE and MoCA scores, which suggested that Kgp genotypes II is related to cognitive impairment in PD.
