Saliva-induced aggregation of oral streptococci.
Cells of several species of oral microorganisms have been shown, in earlier studies, to be aggregated by saliva. In the present study some of the basic properties of the aggregation system are examined. The observation is made that the saliva-induced aggregates of Streptococcus sanguis and S. mitis can be dissociated to stable particles which consist of about 100 cells and have a median diamete...
متن کاملPlatelet sialic acid and platelet survival after aggregation by ADP.
Some investigators have reported recently that platelet surface sialic acid is decreased during ADP-induced aggregation, whereas others have reported an increase. Since removal of sialic acid from the platelet surface shortens platelet survival, we have determined the survival of platelets that have been aggregatad by ADP. We have also measured the amount of sialic acid in the suspending fluid ...
متن کاملInhibition of platelet aggregation by rat trophoblasts.
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of rat trophoblast cell suspensions on adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation. MATERIALS AND METHODS The trophoblasts were isolated from ectoplacental cones (a preplacental tissue very rich in trophoblasts) developed in rat embryos on day 12 of pregnancy (normal period of gestation: 22-23 days). Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was obtained from a...
متن کاملInhibition of platelet aggregation by protease inhibitors. Possible involvement of proteases in platelet aggregation.
The possible participation of proteases in human platelet aggregation was explored using various protease inhibitors and substrates. Protease inhibitors used included naturally occurring inhibitors of serine proteases and synthetic inhibitors that modify the active site of protease. Substrates used were synthetic substrates for the trypsin type as well as for the chymotrypsin type of protease. ...
متن کاملEnhanced platelet aggregation by oral contraceptives: effect of PG synthetase inhibitors.
Platelet aggregation time was significantly (P less than 0.01) decreased in female rabbits treated with oral contraceptive (a preparation containing low dose of estrogen) as also by injection of diethylstilbestrol (10 mg/kg), while in animals that received indomethacin (10 mg/kg) or aspirin (30 mg/kg) (PG synthetase inhibitors) along with oral contraceptives or diethylstilbestrol there was no s...
