Research Abstract |
Dental plaque, a microbial biofilm formed by multiple organisms tightly adhered to the tooth surface, plays a key role in the development of periodontal disease. The effect of functional proteins on the periodontopathic biofilm formation was determined using the flat bottom of 96-well cell culture plates. Cystatin significantly inhibited biofilm formation by some periodontopathic bacterial strains. Galectins markedly suppressed IL-6 induction in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells by periodontopathic bacterial endotoxin.
