چکیده

A B-cell line producing a human monoclonal antibody (HuMAb) against a recombinant 40-kDa outer membrane protein (OMP) of Porphyromonas gingivalis was constructed by in vivo immunization of a severe combined immunodeficiency C.B.-17/Icr mouse, which had been injected with human peripheral blood lymphocytes, with recombinant 40-kDa OMP and subsequent Epstein-Barr virus immortalization of B cells isolated from the spleen of the mouse. This HuMAb inhibited coaggregation between P. gingivalis vesicles and Actinomyces naeslundii cells.

Inhibitory effects of human salivary histatins and lysozyme on coaggregation between Porphyromonas gingivalis and Streptococcus mitis.

The effects of histatins on coaggregation between Porphyromonas gingivalis 381 and Streptococcus mitis ATCC 9811 were investigated by using a turbidimetric assay. The coaggregation activity was significantly inhibited by histatins 5 and 8 and strongly by lysozyme. Tritium-labeled histatin 8 bound to P. gingivalis cells but not to S. mitis cells.

Effect of S-PRG Eluate on Biofilm Formation and Enzyme Activity of Oral Bacteria

Recently, the antibacterial activity of a composite resin containing prereacted glass ionomer (S-PRG) filler was revealed. We examined the effect of an S-PRG eluate on various biologic activities of Streptococcus mutans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Adherence ability of S. mutans was evaluated by microtiter plate assay; protease and gelatinase activities of P. gingivalis were examined by synthe...

Hemagglutinin/Adhesin domains of Porphyromonas gingivalis play key roles in coaggregation with Treponema denticola.

Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola are major pathogens of periodontal disease. Coaggregation between microorganisms plays a key role in the colonization of the gingival crevice and the organization of periodontopathic biofilms. We investigated the involvement of surface ligands of P. gingivalis in coaggregation. Two triple mutants of P. gingivalis lacking Arg-gingipain A (RgpA), L...

Identification of a Fusobacterium nucleatum PK1594 galactose-binding adhesin which mediates coaggregation with periopathogenic bacteria and hemagglutination.

Attachment of Fusobacterium nucleatum to various oral surfaces is mediated by several adhesins anchored on its outer surface. Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were prepared and used to identify the putative galactose-binding adhesin of F. nucleatum PK1594. Four unique MAbs, 8G7, 26B9, 28G11, and 29D4, were isolated on the basis of their ability to inhibit coaggregation of F. nucleatum PK1594 with P...

Induction of antibody response in the oral cavity of dogs following intraocular (eye drop) immunization with Porphyromonas gingivalis cell lysate incorporated in pH-sensitive fusogenic polymer-modified liposomes

Induction of mucosal immune responses against Porphyromonas gingivalis within the oral cavity of dogs was studied by immunizing with pH-sensitive fusogenic polymer (MGluPG)-modified liposome-associated cell lysate. Dogs immunized with P. gingivalis cell lysate-containing MGluPG-modified liposomes by intraocular (eye drop) route displayed significant levels of P. gingivalis cell lysate-specific ...
