Necrotrophic growth of periodontopathogens is a novel virulence factor in oral biofilms [PDF]
The oral use of antimicrobial agents embedded in toothpastes and mouth rinses results in an oral microbial massacre with high amounts of dead bacteria in close proximity to few surviving bacteria.

Role of early viral surface antigens in cellular immune response to vaccinia virus [PDF]
Infection of mice with the vaccinia virus strain WR, Elstree or DIs, a conditional lethal mutant of vaccinia virus, resulted in the generation of vaccinia virus-specific sensitized cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL).

Studies on the host-mediated action of the streptococcal preparation, OK-432, in cancer chemotherapy [PDF]
The streptococcal preparation, OK.432, with predominant host-mediated mode of action, was studied. By giving OK-432 to mice intraperitoneally prior to transplantation of Ehrlich carcinoma, a host-mediated action to increase life-span was clearly ...

Substantially increased sensitivity of the spot-ELISA for the detection of anti-insulin antibody-secreting cells using a capture antibody and enzyme-conjugated insulin [PDF]
This paper describes an antibody capture spot-ELISA for the detection of anti-insulin antibody-secreting cells. The assay is based on the binding of secreted antibodies by immobilised isotype-specific capture antibodies and subsequent detection of ...

Integration of a virus membrane protein into the lipid bilayer of target cells as a prerequisite for immune cytolysis [PDF]
Structural requirements for membrane antigens on target cells to mediate immune cytolysis were studied in a model system with purified membrane proteins from Semliki Forest virus (SFV). These SFV spike proteins were isolated in the form of detergent- and

Murine cytomegalovirus genomic material in marrow cells; relation to altered leukocyte counts during sublethal infection of mice [PDF]
To investigate infection of hematopoietic cells by murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV), we used in situ hybridization to detect MCMV genomic material in marrow cells during sublethal infection of three-week-old mice.
