An embryonal carcinoma was diagnosed in the abdominal cavity of a 55-day-old male calf. Macroscopically, a large volume of ascitic fluid was observed along with white to yellowish-white masses of various sizes densely located on the abdominal wall and the surface of abdominal organs. There was an
The two varieties of fimbriae identified on oral strains of actinomyces have distinct functional properties. The type 1 fimbriae of Actinomyces viscosus T14V mediate attachment to saliva-treated hydroxyapatite. Type 2 fimbriae--on A. viscosus and the only fimbriae detected on A. naeslundii
Four new bibenzyls, bauhinols A-D (1-4), together with the two known bibenzyls 5 and 6, were isolated from the roots of Bauhinia saccocalyx, and their structures were elucidated by analyses of spectroscopic data. Bauhinol A (1) exhibits significant cytotoxicity towards NCI-H187 (small-cell lung
BACKGROUND
Acute otitis media (AOM) is the most common childhood infection caused by bacteria. The pathogenesis of AOM implicates initial adherence of a pathogen to the nasopharyngeal epithelium, which is followed by bacterial colonization of the middle ear cavity through the Eustachian tube.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present work was to study the in vitro effect of native and recombinant Bauhinia variegata var. variegata lectins in inhibiting early adhesion of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguis and Streptococcus sobrinus to experimentally acquired pellicle.
RESULTS
Native lectin
The oral cytotoxicity, antimicrobial and anti-demineralizing effects of a tincture from Bauhinia forficata Link tincture (BFLT) were evaluated in vitro and ex vivo. Susceptibility tests (minimum inhibitory and microbicidal concentrations-MIC and time-kill assay-MMC) were
OBJECTIVE
Dental caries, periodontitis and other mucosal diseases are caused by a complex community of microorganisms. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial properties of saponins of four important oil yielding medicinal plant extracts on selected oral pathogens that are involved in such
OBJECTIVE
The serine and cysteine peptidase inhibitor, BbCI, isolated from Bauhinia bauhinioides seeds, is similar to the classical plant Kunitz inhibitor, STI, but lacks disulphide bridges and methionine residues. BbCI blocks activity of the serine peptidases, elastase (K(iapp) 5.3 nM) and
The role of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) as effector cells in tumor lysis was investigated in vitro. PMNs were obtained from the peritoneal cavity of C3H/He Mice injected ip with 2 ml of 12% casein sodium. These PMNs could lyse murine MM46 tumor cells in the presence of the plant lectin,
