Streptococcus mutans-derived extracellular matrix in cariogenic oral biofilms
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-02-13)
Biofilms are highly structured microbial communities that are enmeshed in a self-produced extracellular matrix. Within the complex oral microbiome, Streptococcus mutans is a major producer of extracellular polymeric ...
Extracellular DNA and lipoteichoic acids interact with exopolysaccharides in the extracellular matrix of Streptococcus mutans biofilms
(2017-10-21)
Streptococcus mutans-derived exopolysaccharides are virulence determinants in the matrix of biofilms that cause caries. Extracellular DNA (eDNA) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) are found in cariogenic biofilms, but their ...
Updating the role of matrix metalloproteinases in mineralized tissue and related diseases
(Faculdade De Odontologia De Bauru - USP, 2019)
Abstract Bone development and healing processes involve a complex cascade of biological events requiring well-orchestrated synergism with bone cells, growth factors, and other trophic signaling molecules and cellular ...
Lactobacillus casei reduces the extracellular matrix components of fluconazole-susceptible Candida albicans biofilms
(2021-01-01)
Fluconazole-sensitive (CaS) and -resistant (CaR) C. albicans were grown as single-species and dual-species biofilms with Lactobacillus casei (Lc) and Lactobacillus rhamnosus (Lr). Single-species Lc and Lr were also evaluated. ...
Urethral striated muscle and extracellular matrix morphological characteristics among mildly diabetic pregnant rats: translational approach
(Springer, 2014-03-01)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) during pregnancy is associated with high levels of urinary incontinence (UI) and pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. Mild DM can lead to changes in urethral striated muscle and extracellular matrix (ECM) ...
