And an ability of these GTases to enhance cellular attachment of oral streptococci was investigated using 3H labeled resting cells of S. sanguis Challis and S. milleri Is 57. The results were as follows: 1) From culture fluids of strain PS 14 grown in a M 4 medium supplemented with 1% ammonium sulfate, GTase-I was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-cellurose column chromatography and Toyopearl HW-55 gelfiltration. Also, GTase-S was purified by the method of Baba et al from the culture fluids of strain PS 14 grown in a dialyzed BHI medium. Purified GTase-I and GTase-S were almost homogeneous, and had a molecular size of 160 KDa and 145 KDa respectively (by SDS-PAGE). 2) Sucrose-dependent attachment of S. sanguis cells to experimental pellicles was markedly enhanced by the addition of crude GTase in saliva. This fact was conformed by a scanning electron microscopic observation of the attachment cells. Such enhanced attachment necessitated a long-term incubation (greater than 10 h) of the cells in the presence of sucrose, suggesting that it is correlated to de novo glucan synthesis. 3) Purified GTase-I also had an ability to enhance the cellular attachment of S. sanguis cells as well as crude GTase, while purified GTase-S didn't have. Neither crude enzyme, GTase-I nor GTase-S have an ability to enhance significantly the cellular attachment of S. milleri cells. However, S. milleri pretreated with the preparations containing GTase-S gained the ability to attach to experimental pellicles prepared from saliva supplemented with GTase-I. These results suggest that the cellular attachment system mediated by enzymatic action (s) of GTase (s) from serotype c S. mutans be present and function in the first stage of plaque formation.</p>","PeriodicalId":77579,"journal":{"name":"Nichidai koku kagaku = Nihon University journal of oral science","volume":"16 2","pages":"196-211"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13290180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But they are sometimes found in healthy subjects also, so that clicking sounds are seldom recognized as an pathologic condition. Study reports on clicking sounds in the past concentrated mainly on their cause, process of their appearance and their spectral properties. These studies were, however, all based on the understanding that clicking sounds were a kind of symptom or signals that accompanied the unbalanced jaw relationship. They did not examine pathologic conditions or functional change caused by the very existence of clicking sounds. This author has been reporting on the influence of clicking sounds on hearing abilities. This time the author considered it necessary to study the cause for rise of the hearing level of the clicking subjects in relation to the unbalanced positions of their jaws. The author therefore examined the relationship between the phases of occlusal contact and hearing abilities of the clicking subjects. From the results, we obtained the following conclusions: 1. As for the frequency of appearance of clicking sounds, 28 out of the 175 healthy subjects (aged either 21 or 22) had clicking sounds on one side, accounting for 16.0%, at the hazard rate of 1%. There was no differences between the sexes and between the right and left sides. 2.

The tractor was connected to the four positions: the gingival and the incisal hooks on the archwire between the central and the lateral incisors, and onto archwire mesial to the canine and the 1 st premolar brackets. The tractional directions were five, varied from -20 degrees - (+)60 degrees to the occlusal plane at the interval of 20 degrees. The distribution of two-dimensional strain in several tractions and the effects on the craniofacial complex were investigated. The results were as follows: 1. In the right side view, the maxillary complex was not rotated when the tractional directions were set about at +40 degrees in the incisal traction, and between +40 degrees and +60 degrees in the canine and the 1 st premolar tractions. In the maxillary complex, clockwise rotation was induced by downward traction less than these angles, and the counterclockwise rotation was induced by upward traction more than these angles. 2.

The author selected 3 kinds of lectin among others. Those were concanavalin A (Con A) which specifically binds to the alpha-D-mannose, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) which binds to N-acetyl glucosamine, and peanut agglutinin (PNA) which binds to beta-D-galactosamine. The localization of these lectins was examined in order to obtain any information on the process of the proteoglycan synthesis during the cellular differentiation in the epiphyseal cartilage-plate of the rabbit. The binding sites of Con A were determined by conjugating horse radish peroxidase as a marker in case of optical microscopic observations. For the purpose of electron microscopic observations, lectins were marked with gold colloidal particles. Most Con A was found in the rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum, while a part of them was bound to the cis side of the Golgi apparatus. In the cellular column of the cartilage, Con A was increasingly abundant from the younger proliferating stage, through the maturing stage to the stage of hypertrophy, and diminished abruptly at the stage of provisional calcification. These observations were coincided with the degree of development of the endoplasmic reticulum during the maturation of cartilage cells. These findings suggest that alpha-D-mannose is indispensable to the initial stage of proteoglycan synthesis. WGA was observed from the cis side to the intermediate layer of Golgi apparatus, but not at the trans side of the Golgi apparatus, nor in the endoplasmic reticulum. These findings suggest that N-acetyl-glucosamine is an essential substance to the middle stage of proteoglycan synthesis. PNA was found within the nucleus and at the cis side of Golgi apparatus, but not in the endoplasmic reticulum nor in the secretion granules.

In dental pulp, both aerobic and anaerobic pathways of carbohydrate metabolism are present. It was reported that oxygen consumption was parallel to the activity of dentin formation, and anaerobic pathway became predominant after the cession of calcification. Analysis of glycolytic activity in bovine dental pulp revealed that PFK was also the key enzyme in this tissue. But, the regulatory mechanism of PFK in dental pulp has not been elucidated yet. In this paper, properties and regulatory mechanism of PFK in rabbit molar teeth were examined, and the following results were obtained. 1. At nearly neutral pH, PFK activity was extremely low, and it increased with the shift of pH to more alkaline side. Maximum activity was obtained over pH 8.0. 2. At physiological pH, PFK was activated with low concentration of ATP, but was inhibited with high concentration of ATP. 3. For the recovery of PFK activity from ATP-dependent inhibition, not only Fru-6-P but also AMP and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) were necessary. 4. In rabbit dental pulp, PFK was regulated synergistically by Fru-6-P, ATP, AMP and Fru-2,6-P2, and the range of the actual PFK activity seemed to be 30 to 80% of the maximum activity. 5.

The structure of the experimental incipient caries was described after Darling (1963); surface layer, body of the lesion, dark zone, and translucent zone. When the section was immersed for shorter period in the buffer of pH 4.5, the lesion was made up only two layers, namely, the surface layer and the body of the lesion. This type of lesion will be called Type I, hereafter. When the action of acid was more intense, only one layer, the body of the lesion remained after the dissolution of the surface layer. This type of lesion will be called Type II.

Of the samples examined, a few example showed a five-layered structure; the surface layer, the first body of lesion, the first dark zone, the second body of lesion, the second dark zone, and the translucent zone. This phenomenon suggests that the speed of caries development was not uniform throughout the experiment. The relationship between the depth of the lesion, and the pH and the duration of acid action was studied.
