Distribution and immunochemical specificities of fimbriae of Porphyromonas gingivalis and related bacterial species

Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 1991
Rabbit polyclonal antibody (Poly‐1) and mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) TO‐11, TO‐14 and TO‐M1 specific for Porphyromonas gingivalis 381 fimbriae were prepared. Poly‐1 and the 3 mAbs were screened for their reactivity with whole cells of oral and nonoral black‐pigmented bacterial species by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the binding ...

Structure and Cell Membrane-Binding Properties of Bacterial Fimbriae

1980
It has been thirty years since bacteria were recognized to sometimes possess proteinaceous, non-flagellar surface appendages that radiate outwards in a fairly rigid, filamentous fashion (Houwink and van Iterson, 1950). At the same time, it was first suggested that they function as organs of attachment.

The Bacterial Lectin FimH, a Target for Drug Discovery – Carbohydrate Inhibitors of Type 1 Fimbriae‐Mediated Bacterial Adhesion

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2011
AbstractAdhesion is a prerequisite for bacteria to colonize cell surfaces. To accomplish cellular adhesion, many bacteria use carbohydrate‐specific lectins, which are expressed as part of capillary protein appendages expanding from their surface, called fimbriae or pili.

Competence of Genetic Transformation correlated with the Occurrence of Fimbriae in Three Bacterial Species

Nature New Biology, 1971
THE involvement of bacterial fimbriae (pili) in some cases of phage infection and in bacterial conjugation has been known or presumed for some years1. Studies in our laboratories show that fimbriae are also associated with genetic transformation in several bacterial species.

Bacterial fimbriae activate human peripheral blood monocytes utilizing TLR2, CD14 and CD11a/CD18 as cellular receptors

European Journal of Immunology, 2002
Bacterial fimbriae are associated with a specific adherence factor, adhesin, in their microbial etiology. Porphyromonas gingivalis, as an anaerobic Gram-negative periodontopathogenic organism, is known to possess fimbriae on its cell surfaces. In this study, we demonstrated that P.

Observation of fimbriae and flagella in dispersed subgingival dental plaque and fresh bacterial isolates from periodontal disease

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1983
The interbacterial matrix of subgingival plaque obtained from 12 individuals was examined by agar‐filtration negative stain electron microscopy. Flagellated bacteria were abundant in all samples from patients having periodontal disease. In addition, the plaques of all patients having periodontal disease, with the exception of two children diagnosed as ...

[Effect of P fimbriae on pyuria and bacterial colonization of the human urinary tract].

Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2003
This study investigated the role of P fimbriae in colonization of Escherichia coli, host response, and bacterial persistence in humans. Human volunteers were inoculated intravesically with the nonadherent ABU isolate E. coli 83972 and with P fimbriated transformants of the same strain.
