生物化学生物化学
免疫学免疫学免疫学

背景情况:

牙斑是牙上复杂的多微生物生物膜.
宿主衍生的抗微生物因素,如β2-微型血球蛋白 (B2M),通常对抗生物膜.
斑块逃避这些防御的机制尚未完全理解.

研究的目的:

调查牙斑生物膜是否会改变唾液β2-微型血球蛋白 (B2M) 的结构和功能.
探索牙斑中环境因素在B2M纤维化中的作用.

牙斑块的分化以隔离B2M.
在体外实验中使用纯化的B2M和Streptococcus mutans生物膜模型进行实验.
在模拟斑块条件下分析B2M纤维化.

主要成果:

B2M存在于牙斑中,以可溶和不可溶的形式存在,包括粉样纤维 (fB2Ms).
斑块环境因素 (酸盐,短链脂肪酸,双价离子) 促进B2M纤维化.
纤维化B2M失去抗菌活性,集成到生物膜矩阵中,并增强S. mutans生物膜生长.
纤维化B2M改变生物膜结构,可能有助于传播.

Biofilms

Biofilms

Biofilms are complex communities of microorganisms encased in a self-produced extracellular polysaccharide matrix attached to surfaces. These microbial consortia can include single or multiple species, providing enhanced survival benefits by forming organized, multilayered structures.The formation of biofilms occurs through four key stages: attachment, colonization, development, and dispersal.During attachment, free-swimming planktonic cells adhere to a surface, often facilitated by...

Intracellular Signaling Affects Focal Adhesions

Intracellular Signaling Affects Focal Adhesions

Integrins act both as extracellular input receivers and as intracellular processing activators. As their name suggests, integrins are entirely integrated into the membrane structure. Their hydrophobic membrane-spanning regions interact with the phospholipid bilayer's hydrophobic region. These membrane receptors provide extracellular attachment sites for effectors like hormones and growth factors. They activate intracellular response cascades when their effectors are bound and active.

Amyloid Fibrils

Amyloid Fibrils

Amyloid fibrils are aggregates of misfolded proteins. Under most circumstances, misfolded proteins are either refolded by chaperone proteins or degraded by the proteasome. However, in the case of a mutation or a disease, these proteins can accumulate to form large clusters and often further assemble to form elongated fibers, called fibrils.
Amyloid deposits were observed as early as 1639 in the liver and the spleen. In 1854, Rudolph Virchow performed iodine staining,...
