| Research Abstract |
To establish a novel strategy for the control of oral candidiasis, we examined factors involved in the acquisition of pathogenicity of oral Candida species.We revealed that the acquisition of oral Candida albicans is induced by the decrease of salivary anti-microbial peptides such as lactoferrin and histatin 5. This result suggests that anti-microbial peptides are useful for prevention and treatment of oral candidiasis.
