Symbiotic Relationship between Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans Synergizes Virulence of Plaque Biofilms In Vivo

TL;DR: It is shown that the ability of these organisms together to form biofilms is enhanced in vitro and in vivo, and a novel mutualistic bacterium-fungus relationship that occurs at a clinically relevant site to amplify the severity of a ubiquitous infectious disease is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteomic Analysis of Human Parotid Gland Exosomes by Multidimensional Protein Identification Technology (MudPIT)

TL;DR: The present study used a mass spectrometry-based, shotgun proteomics approach to explore the possibility that a subset of the proteins found in saliva are derived from exosomes, membrane-bound vesicles of endosomal origin within multivesicular endosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tmem16A Encodes the Ca2+-activated Cl− Channel in Mouse Submandibular Salivary Gland Acinar Cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both Tmem16A and Best2 generate Ca2+-activated Cl− current in vitro with similar properties to those expressed in native cells, yet only T Mem16A appears to be a critical component of the acinar Ca2-activation Cl− channel complex that is essential for saliva production by the submandibular gland.
