RESUMO

PURPOSE: The use of dental restorative materials is a routine task in clinical dentistry. Upon exposure to the oral cavity, continuous adsorption of salivary proteins and other macromolecules to all surfaces occurs, representing the first step in dental biofilm formation. Different physico-chemical properties of substrate materials potentially influence the composition of the initial biofilm, termed pellicle. This study aimed at characterizing and comparing the individual proteomic composition of the 3-min pellicle formed on bovine enamel and six restorative materials. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: After chemical elution, pellicle proteins were identified by nano-LC-HR-MS/MS. Proteomic profiles were analyzed in terms of molecular weights, isoelectric points, molecular functions and compared to saliva to reveal substrate material-specific adsorption patterns. RESULTS: A total of 1348 different pellicle proteins were identified, with 187-686 proteins in individual 3-min pellicles. Unexpectedly, this yielded quite similar distribution patterns independent of the substrate materials. Furthermore, overall similar fold changes were obtained for the major part of commonly enriched or depleted proteins in the pellicles. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The current results point to a minor role of the substrate material on the proteomic composition of the 3-min pellicle and represent core data for understanding the complex surface interactions in the oral cavity.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This in situ study aimed to determine and compare the chlorhexidine (CHX) retention in the oral cavity after the application of different CHX pharmaceutical regimens. METHODS: Five volunteers used different CHX treatment regimens including mouth rinses, dental spray and toothpaste gel. After the application of the different CHX regimens, 2-µl samples were taken from saliva and buccal mucosa pellicle as well as the dental pellicle samples formed on standardized enamel surfaces. Sample collection was conducted at six time points within 12 h. Retention of CHX was measured using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. RESULTS: CHX retention values in the oral mucosa pellicle were significantly higher than those in saliva. CHX remained in the mucosal pellicle at microgrammes per millilitre levels for 12 h after mouth rinsing, 10 h after spray application and 2 h after using the toothpaste. CHX was detected in the dental pellicle for at least 12 h after application of mouth rinsing and spray. Retention of CHX after mouth rinsing or spray application was significantly higher than the retention after using toothpaste. CONCLUSIONS: Oral mucosa was the favourable site for CHX retention. Higher mouth rinse concentration and longer rinsing time produced a slight increase in CHX retention. CHX spray provided considerable retention values, whereas toothpaste gel delivered the lowest retention after application. MALDI-TOF was a sensitive method with excellent limits of quantification for CHX detection.

RESUMO

Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of catheter-related blood stream infections (CRBSI). The bacterium has the ability to form multilayered biofilms on implanted material, which usually requires the removal of the implanted medical device. A first major step of this biofilm formation is the initial adhesion of the bacterium to the artificial surface. Here, we used single-cell force spectroscopy (SCFS) to study the initial adhesion of S. aureus to central venous catheters (CVCs). SCFS performed with S. aureus on the surfaces of naïve CVCs produced comparable maximum adhesion forces on three types of CVCs in the low nN range (~ 2-7 nN). These values were drastically reduced, when CVC surfaces were preincubated with human blood plasma or human serum albumin, and similar reductions were observed when S. aureus cells were probed with freshly explanted CVCs withdrawn from patients without CRBSI. These findings indicate that the initial adhesion capacity of S. aureus to CVC tubing is markedly reduced, once the CVC is inserted into the vein, and that the risk of contamination of the CVC tubing by S. aureus during the insertion process might be reduced by a preconditioning of the CVC surface with blood plasma or serum albumin.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Dental pellicle formation starts instantaneously after oral hygiene due to the adsorption of salivary proteins to all orally exposed surfaces. The pellicle acts as a physiological mediator, protects the tooth surface from mechanical damages and reduces acid-induced enamel demineralization. The aim of this pilot study is to identify and characterize individual proteomic profiles of the initial pellicle formed on dental enamel and to compare the profiles with the corresponding saliva to analyze specific adsorption patterns occurring during pellicle formation. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The 3-min pellicle of five subjects formed in situ on bovine enamel is eluted chemically and analyzed separately by nano-mass spectrometry. The analysis of the corresponding saliva is conducted in parallel. RESULTS: Up to 498 pellicle proteins and up to 1032 salivary proteins are identified on an individual level. Comparison of the salivary and pellicle protein profiles demonstrates the pellicle formation to be highly individual. Nineteen proteins are significantly enriched in the 3-min pellicle of all subjects and 22 proteins are significantly depleted indicating that pellicle formation relies on selective adsorption. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The short-term enamel pellicle is composed of several hundreds of adsorbed salivary proteins and reveals a highly individual proteomic profile.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine chlorhexidine retention in different oral sites after a one-time 30 s mouth rinsing. DESIGN: Five volunteers were asked to rinse their mouth with 10 ml of 0.2 % chlorhexidine digluconate for 30 s. After rinsing, samples were collected from the interdental area, buccal dental pellicle, anterior labial and posterior buccal mucosa, and saliva with a microbrush at five-time points within 24 h. Retention of chlorhexidine was measured using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry with a quantification limit of 15 ng/ml. RESULTS: Chlorhexidine remained in the oral cavity at micrograms per milliliter levels for 11 h after mouth rinsing and was even detected 24 h after application. The results showed a distinct decline of intraoral chlorhexidine levels during the first 6 h after rinsing and it was then retained at low concentrations for at least 24 h. CONCLUSIONS: The dental pellicle and oral mucosa were favorable sites for chlorhexidine retention. The novel method used for chlorhexidine determination offered excellent quantification limits and readily permitted quantification of chlorhexidine.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To 1) elucidate individual proteomic profiles of the 3-min biofilm of caries-active and caries-free individuals and 2) compare these proteomic profiles against the background of caries. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The initial oral pellicle of 12 caries-active and 12 caries-free individuals is generated in situ on ceramics specimens. The individual, host-specific proteomic profiles of this basic pellicle layer are analyzed by a chemical elution protocol combined with an elaborate mass spectrometry and evaluated bioinformatically. RESULTS: A total of 1188 different proteins are identified. Additionally, 68 proteins are present in the profiles of all individuals, suggesting them as ubiquitously occurring base-proteins of the initial human pellicle. Thereof, the single profiles exhibit high inter-individual differences independent of their group affiliation, stating the initial pellicle to represent a rather "individual fingerprint". Quantitative analyses imply slight indication for 23 proteins potentially capable of counting for caries-specific biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The introduced protocol enables the individual analysis of minimal protein amounts and allows for highly precise characterizations and comparisons of individual proteomic profiles. The results contain a considerable higher extent of protein identifications and might serve as a base for future large scale analyzes to identify discrimination factors for the development of caries susceptibility tests.

RESUMO

The salivary pellicle, covering natural as well as restored tooth surfaces in the oral cavity as an immobilized protein-rich layer, acts as an important physico-chemical and biological mediator at the tooth-saliva-interface. For the first time, the pellicle's proteome of individual volunteers were analyzed separately on three consecutive days and the relative protein abundance determined by a label-free quantitative nano-LC-MS/MS approach. A total of 72 major proteins were identified in the initial pellicles formed intraorally on dental ceramic specimens already after 3min with high inter-individual and inter-day consistency. In comparison, significant differences in protein abundance were evident between subjects, thus indicating unique individual pellicle profiles. Furthermore, the relative protein abundance in pellicles was compared to the proteome pattern in the corresponding saliva samples of the same individuals to provide first data on significantly enriched and depleted salivary proteins (p <0.05) within the surface-bound salivary pellicle. Our findings reveal the initial adsorption of salivary proteins at the solid-liquid interface to be a rapid, highly selective, and reproducible process leading to the immobilization of a broad range of protective proteins and enzymes on the substratum surface within a few minutes. This provides evidence that the pellicle layer might be physiologically functional even without further maturation.

RESUMO

AIM: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of caries activity on the key enzymes and the ultrastructure of the in situ pellicle. METHODS: Pellicle formation was performed on bovine enamel slabs. Intraoral exposure (3, 30, and 120 min) was accomplished by 14 caries-active (DMFS: 22.7 ± 12.1) and 13 caries-inactive (DMFS: 1.5 ± 1.8) individuals. The enzyme activities (lysozyme, peroxidase, α-amylase, glycosyltransferase [GTF]) in the in situ pellicle and resting saliva of all participants were analyzed directly after oral exposure. In addition, a simultaneous visualization of these enzymes, extracellular glucans, and adherent bacteria was carried out. Fluorescent patterns were analyzed with fluorescence labeling and 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole/concanavalin A staining. In addition, the distribution of GTF B, C, and D and the ultrastructure of the pellicle were examined by gold immunolabeling and transmission electron microscopy with selected samples. RESULTS: Enzyme activities of amylase, peroxidase, lysozyme, and GTF were detected on all enamel slabs in an active conformation. Neither exposure time nor caries activity had an impact on the enzyme activities. Gold immunolabeling indicated that the pellicle of caries-active subjects tends to more GTF D molecules. The pellicles of caries-inactive and -active individuals revealed a similar ultrastructural pattern. CONCLUSION: The enzyme activities as well as the pellicle's ultrastructure are of high similarity in caries-active and -inactive subjects. Thereby, oral exposure time has no significant influence. This reflects a high uniformity during the initial phase of bioadhesion (3-120 min) concerning enzymatic functions. However, there is a tendency towards more GTF D in caries-active individuals.

RESUMO

The interplay of albumin (BSA) and lysozyme (LYZ) adsorbed simultaneously on titanium was analyzed by gel electrophoresis and BCA assay. It was found that BSA and lysozyme adsorb cooperatively. Additionally, the isoelectric point of the respective protein influences the adsorption. Also, the enzymatic activity of lysozyme and amylase (AMY) in mixtures with BSA was considered with respect to a possible influence of protein-protein interaction on enzyme activity. Indeed, an increase of lysozyme activity in the presence of BSA could be observed. In contrast, BSA does not influence the activity of amylase.
