摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for mineralizing a dental surface or subsurface including providing a composition including stabilized ACP and a source of fluoride ions.
摘要:
The invention relates to generation and use of cellular and humoral responses for the prevention and treatment of P. gingivalis related conditions and diseases.
摘要:
The present invention provides a purified multimeric complex from P. gingivalis. The complex comprises at least one domain from each of RgpA, Kgp and HagA, and has a molecular weight greater than about 300 kDa.
摘要:
The present invention relates to peptides and compositions that have antibiofilm properties. In particular, the peptides and compositions of the invention can be used for the treatment or prevention of various conditions including dental caries, gingivitis, periodontitis, oral mucositis, dry mouth and xerostomia.
摘要:
The present invention provides an antigenic composition, the composition comprising at least one recombinant protein. The recombinant protein comprises at least one epitope. The epitope is reactive with an antibody which is reactive with a polypeptide having the sequence set out in SEQ. ID. NO. 3 or SEQ. ID. NO. 5. The invention also provides methods and compositions for the production of the recombinant protein. Also provided are methods for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of P. gingivalis infection.
摘要:
A method is provided for mineralizing a dental surface or subsurface including contacting the dental surface with a protein disrupting agent and stabilized amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) or amorphous calcium fluoride phosphate (ACFP).
摘要:
The invention is directed to vaccine compositions and methods based on P. gingivalis proteins identified to be regulated by haem availability that can be used in the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease. In particular, two specific internalin-like P. gingivalis proteins, namely PG0350 and PG1374 involved in the internalization of P. gingivalis by host cells, the hypothetical protein, PG1019 purported to be a cell surface lipoprotein and the alkyl hydroperoxide reductase protein, PG0618 have been identified as useful targets for the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method of reducing the incidence or severity of a disease or condition in a subject, said disease or condition being one associated with the presence of a microbial pathogen in an oral tissue of a subject, and including the use of a composition forming an anti-microbial and an immunogen against a microbial pathogen.
摘要:
The present invention provides a phosphopeptide or phosphoprotein (PP) stabilised amorphous calcium phosphate or amorphous calcium fluoride phosphate complex having a calcium ion greater than about 30 moles of calcium per mole of PP
摘要:
The invention provides a method of preventing, inhibiting or reducing a P. gingivalis biofilm in a subject comprising administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising an inhibiting agent of a polypeptide that reduces or inhibits biofilm formation and/or biofilm development. Also provided are compositions useful in the prevention, inhibition or treatment of periodontal disease or P. gingivalis infection.
