Isolation of a Novel Phage with Activity against Streptococcus mutans Biofilms [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedStreptococcus mutans is one of the principal agents of caries formation mainly, because of its ability to form biofilms at the tooth surface.

Proteome analysis identifies the Dpr protein of Streptococcus mutans as an important factor in the presence of early streptococcal colonizers of tooth surfaces. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Oral streptococci are primary colonizers of tooth surfaces and Streptococcus mutans is the principal causative agent of dental caries in humans. A number of proteins are involved in the formation of monospecies biofilms by S. mutans.

Inhibition of Streptococcus mutans by a commercial yogurt drink
Journal of Dental Sciences, 2019 Background/Purpose: Studies have been focused on using probiotics to prevent caries. The lactobacillus probiotic bacteria in Yakult® (LcY) has been shown to inhibit the growth or biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans.

Effect of nicotine on streptococcus mutans [PDF]
, 2014 Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)Streptococcus mutans is a key contributor to dental caries. Smokers have increased caries, but the association between tobacco, nicotine, caries and S. mutans growth is little investigated.

Streptococcus mutans Can Modulate Biofilm Formation and Attenuate the Virulence of Candida albicans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans are found together in the oral biofilms on dental surfaces, but little is known about the ecological interactions between these species. Here, we studied the effects of S.

Antimicrobial efficacy of S-PRG containing toothpastes on S. mutans biofilm development
Brazilian Dental Science, 2023 Objective: to investigate the antimicrobial effects of toothpastes containing bioactive surface pre-reacted glass particles (S-PRG) on S. mutans biofilms adherence, initial colonization and maturation. Material and Methods: a reference UA 159 and a clinical S. mutans (SM6) strain were used.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Cariogenic Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is implicated in the dental pulp necrosis but also in cardiovascular tissue infections. Herein, the purpose was to elucidate how human dental pulp derived stromal cells (DPSCs) react toward a direct interaction

A Longitudinal Study of Streptococcus mutans Colonization in Infants after Tooth Eruption [PDF]
, 2003 We previously reported that, before tooth eruption, over one-half of infants aged 6 mos were already infected with Streptococcus mutans. The aim of this investigation was to determine the colonization of S.

Multivalent Glycopolymer Design Unlocks Antimicrobial Activity of 2‐Deoxyglucose
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.New approaches to combat antimicrobial‐resistant pathogens are needed. Here, scaffolding a nonmetabolizable sugar (2DG) on a polymer backbone is shown to significantly improve its antimicrobial activity. ABSTRACT With the increasing prevalence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) pathogens, last‐line therapeutics such as cyclic peptides are insufficient ...
