Analysis of Streptococcus mutans biofilm proteins recognized by salivary immunoglobulin A
Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 08/20/09

Sanui T et al. – The bacterial molecules recognized by caries–free saliva are significant factors for S. mutans caries formation, and their inhibition could be a therapeutic target. In addition, saliva of caries–free subjects includes significant IgA antibody against antigen I/II of S. mutans, indicating a protective mechanism. However, microorganisms may protect themselves from host immune attack by forming biofilms and decreasing expression of antigen I/II.
