Two-hundred and forty individuals were studied, divided into five groups as follows: caries-free children, children with caries, children with rampant caries, young adults with and without caries. Whole stimulated saliva was collected and all individuals were investigated for DMFT/dmft according to the WHO criteria and the simplified oral hygiene index (OHI-S). Quantitative analysis of the tota...
Although several risk factors for stroke have been identified, one-third remain unexplained. Here we show that infection with Streptococcus mutans expressing collagen-binding protein (CBP) is a potential risk factor for haemorrhagic stroke. Infection with serotype k S. mutans, but not a standard strain, aggravates cerebral haemorrhage in mice. Serotype k S. mutans accumulates in the damaged, bu...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cranberry polyphenol fraction on mutans streptococci. Hydrophobicity is an important factor in the adherence of bacteria to the tooth surface. We found that cranberry polyphenol fraction significantly decreased the hydrophobicity of Streptococcus sobrinus 6715, Streptococcus mutans MT8148R and JC2 in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.05). Bi...
The Streptococcus mutans serotype c gtfA gene encodes a 55-kilodalton sucrose-hydrolyzing enzyme. Analysis of S. mutans gtfA mutants revealed that the mutant strains were specifically impaired in the ability to use melibiose as a sole carbon source. S. mutans gtfA mutant strains synthesized less alpha-galactosidase activity inducible by raffinose than wild-type strains. Melibiose (an inducer in...
statement of the problem: fixed orthodontic appliances predispose patients to dental caries. use of mouthrinses has been introduced as the effective way for reducing dental plaque accumulation. purpose: the aim of this study was to compare the effects of persicamouthwash and chlorhexidine (chx) on colonization of streptococcus mutans ( s. mutans ) on fixed orthodontic o-rings. materials and met...
background and aims. streptococcus mutans is an important species in oral microflora and its components have been found to stimulate production of proinflammatory cytokines in dental caries. the aim of this study was to evaluate proin-flammatory cytokines (il-1α and il-6) in patients with s. mutans. materials and methods. seventy samples were selected during pulpectomy and investigated for the ...
Free D-amino acids (D-AAs) are one of the most striking features of the peptidoglycan composition in bacteria and play a key role in regulating and disassembling bacterial biofilms. Previous studies have indicated that the antimicrobial peptide nisin can inhibit the growth of the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans. The present study investigated the effect of free amino acids either alone...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The counts of cariogenic bacteria lactobacilli and mutans streptococci have been studied and correlated with sugar intake. This study was to investigate the association between salivary lactobacilli and mutans streptococci counts with sweet food eating behavior and sweet sensitivity among 120 Malaysian women (101 ethnic Chinese, 19 ethnic Indians), while taking into ac...
When rats from dams fed a low-protein diet were injected with whole, killed Strepococcus mutans 6715 cells in the region of the submandibular gland, they developed serum and salivary agglutinins to this microorganism. Titers of agglutinins in malnourished rats were similar to those observed in rats from dams fed a nutritionally adequate diet that were locally injected with S. mutans. Furthermor...
PURPOSE Streptococcus mutans has been implicated as the major causative agent of dental caries. Although restorative treatment for caries is thought to temporarily eliminate the carious challenge, there are few reports of alterations in salivary mutans streptococci (MS) numbers and no reports of changes in salivary IgA antibody to S. mutans following restorative treatment. METHODS This study ...
