Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to elucidate the pathogenesis of Burning mouse syndrome, we examined acetaldehyde production by oral bacteria / fungi and adverse effects on oral mucosa by acetaldehyde. It was suggested that acetaldehyde was produced in the genus Candida which is an oral fungus and inhibition of epithelial differentiation marker of oral mucosal epithelial cells by acetaldehyde, so that acetaldehyde had an adverse effect on the oral mucosa.
