The effect of supplementing the diet or drinking water with lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) on the formation of caries lesions in rats was investigated. Addition of LDH [20 and 5 mg/kg in the high-sucrose (65%) diet, 2 and 1 U/ml in the drinking water (LDH-specific activity 735 U/mg solid)] resulted in
OBJECTIVE
To study the ability of daily applications of Streptococcus rattus strain JH145 to affect the numbers of an implanted Streptococcus mutans strain in a rat model.
RESULTS
A spontaneous L(+)-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-deficient mutant of Streptococcus rattus, JH146, was isolated by
OBJECTIVE
To preliminarily investigate the relationship between the Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and dental caries initiation.
METHODS
100 S. mutans strains derived from caries-active and caries-free individuals were cultured in BHI medium supplemented
Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; EC 1.1.1.27) isoenzymes in human epithelial cells from squamous cell carcinomas and healthy tissues of the oral cavity of five patients were analyzed using isoelectric focussing. A new basic isoenzyme and high LDH-7 and LDH-9 activity were found in tumor cells in contrast
OBJECTIVE
To examine whether lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) can predict the prognosis of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to determine the optimal cut-off values for LDH.
METHODS
This retrospective study included 184 patients with OSCC, treated with surgery between 2006 and 2014. The
This study was undertaken to investigate and compare some biochemical and physiological properties related to sugar metabolism of 4 laboratory strains and 13 freshly isolated strains of Streptococcus mutans from carious and caries-free tooth surfaces and from subjects with hereditary fructose
BACKGROUND
Primary cavity-based lymphomas (PCBL) represent and uncommon group on non-Hodgkin lymphomas associated with AIDS. They present as malignant effusions with no bone marrow or lymph node involvement, although some cases with bone marrow infiltration at advanced stages have been reported.
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen and the proposed causative agent of localized aggressive periodontitis. A. actinomycetemcomitans is found exclusively in the mammalian oral cavity in the space between the gums and the teeth known as the gingival
Inoculation of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells (EAC) into the peritoneal cavities of outbred ddY mice induced interferon (IFN) in the circulation. The maximum titer (1,280 U) was obtained at 24 hr after inoculation. This induced IFN had the characteristics of type I IFN, i.e., stability at pH2 and
The mode of action of Vibrio vulnificus haemolysin (VVH) on mast cells from the peritoneal cavity of the rat was examined. VVH induced histamine release, and damage to the mast cells, in a dose-dependent fashion. When 1 microgram of VVH was added to c. 10(5) mast cells at 37 degrees C, histamine
Mutants of Streptococcus mutans were isolated which lack the enzyme activity L (+)-lactate dehydrogenase. Reversion studies indicate that the genetic defects are in the structural gene for the enzyme. The mutants produce less titratable acid from glucose, adhere better to hydroxyapatite, and
