  12. Salivary constituents and their functions defensins defensins Mucins defensins

  13. Mucins • Important in formation of lubricating biofilm to protect underlying mucosa and tooth surfaces from chemical and physical harm • Important for physiological processes: speech, swallowing, clearance of microbes • Glycoproteins, 30-90% carbohydrate w/serine or threonine-galactosylamine glycopeptide linkage • Two major salivary mucins: • MG1 (from mucous acini of seromucous salivary glands) • MG2 (from serous cells of seromucous salivary glands + parotid gland) • Distinguished by differences in size, carbohydrate content, sulfation (and charge), sialic acid, subunit structure (see Table) •  size: MG1 (MUC5B) > MG2 (MUC7) •  carbohydrates, sulfation:MG1 > MG2 •  MG1 bears ABH and Lewis blood group antigens for microbial adherence

  14. Mucins

  15. Mucins and mucosal surfaces • MG1 is tightly associated with mucosa • Serves as barrier against toxins, hydrolytic enzymes, acids, carcinogens • Traps various host defense factors, providing high concentrations of these factors near surface • sIgA concentrated w/i mucin layer overlying epithelium • In solution, MG1 forms complexes with various proteins: amylase, PRPs, statherin, histatins

  16. Mucins and dental surfaces • Mucins play important role in generation of the dental pellicle • “Pellicle” 1-2 m layer containing lipids + salivary proteins/glycoproteins: albumin, lysozyme, PRPs, lactoferrin, statherin, bacterial debri etc.. • MG1 covers outer layers of pellicle while MG2 more inside(Kajisa et al, 1990) • Pellicleimportant for colonization of first line of bacteria; “good guys”

  17. Mucins and fluid phase defenses • Mucins exert several antimicrobial activities in fluid phase. • MG2 prevents bacterial colonization of the pellicle coated-tooth by presenting identical surface carbohydrates in the fluid phase (Levine et al, 1985: Reddy et al, 1993) • MG1 believed to protect mucosa by preventing viral infections; ex. HIV and herpes simplex (Mandel and Ellison, 1985)

  18. Serous secretions • Provided by the parotid gland • Contain innate immune factors • Lysozyme, histatins, salivary peroxidase, lactoferrin, cystatins, PRPs, calprotectin • Contain adaptive immune factors • sIgA

  19. Lysozyme • Muramidase, N-acetylmuramide glycanohydrolase • Encoded on chromosome 12 • Cationic protein • Mol wt. 14.3 kD • Produced by myeloid cells and glandular epithelium • Parotid saliva: up to 10 mg/L (unstimulated); down to 1 mg/L (stimulated) • Activity: cleaves -1,4 linkage between NAM-NAG in bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan. • Protein contains deep groove capable of binding 6 sugar units of the NAM-NAG structure causing the backbone structure to snap. • Due to its charge, has some non-enzymatic microbicidal activity against bacteria and oral fungi (Laible and Germaine, 1985; Tobji et al, 1988)

  20. Lactoferrin (lactotransferrin) • LF iron chelating glycoprotein • 10-20 mg/L saliva; 1 g/L in milk • Produced by neutrophils (not other myeloid cells) and glandular epithelium • Encoded on chromosome 3 • LF single polypeptide; MW 80 kD; 2 homologous domains that each binds one Fe+2 ion • Activity: blocks growth of iron dependent organisms (Ca, Pg) • Apolactoferrin (iron-less) can kill certain oral bacteria (S. mutans, A.a.) by binding to metal and destabilizing outer membrane (conjecture; Ellison et al, 1988) • “Lactoferricin” microbicidal peptide domain released from LF by pepsin (gastric hydrolase) (Yamauchi et al, 1993)

  21. Salivary peroxidase • 78 kD enzyme • Produced by salivary gland epithelium • Catalyzes reduction of H2O2 to H2O and oxidation of electron donor • Main donor is thiocyanate (SCN-), halide ion, 1-2 mM in saliva; • H2O2 + SCN- H2O + OSCN- (hypothiocyanite) • Activity: • potentiates antimicrobial activity of fluoride against S. mutans(Lenander-Lumikari et al, 1997) • potentiates activities of lysozyme and lactoferrin • may function against H2O2 generating bacteria (Thomas et al, 1983) • neutralizes H2O2 along the mucosa (antioxidant effect) • H2O2 oral releasing bacteria can induce ulceration of the mucosa (conjecture) • Acatalasemia (deficiency in catalase; enzyme catalyzes H2O2) has been associated with extensive ulceration of oral tissues • Strep. H2O2 release is strain dependent; 0-165 nmol/min/mg bacterial protein in presence of glucose (Miyasaki et al, 1988) • Tissue destructive effects of H2O2 is probably indirect, requiring further reduction of H2O2 to •OH ? aphthous ulcerations respond to salivary peroxidase enhancement therapy; clinical study, 45 of 64 aphthous patients reported symptomatic relief; ? Oral strep connection??(Hoogendoorn and Piessens, 1987)

  22. Histatins (HRPs) • Basic, histidine rich, -helical peptides (7-38 aa) • Up to 12 different HRPs • Produced by salivary gland epithelium • Found in parotid and submandibular secretions • 50-425 g/ml saliva (Edgerton et al, 1998) • Strong anticandidal peptides;some anti- S. mutans and anti-P. gingivalis activity • 2 families of HRPs based on sequence analysis

  23. Antifungal activity of Histatins • Most important antifungal agents in saliva • Anti-histatin immunoaffinity adsorption of saliva removes candidacidal activity • Decrease in salivary histatins associated with increased incidence of candidiasis secondary to HIV (Mandel et al, 1992) • Topical histatins have been shown to prevent denture stomatitis (DS) • Dentures cover palate and prevent access of parotid saliva • DS presents as a superficial fungal problem; little fungus is found in mucosa •  Clinical observations reveal the significance of histatins in preventing superficial oral candidiasis.

  24. Mouse model of oral candidiasis Normal mouse tongue Candida/hyphae

  25. Proline-rich proteins (PRPs) • Acidic, with 25-40% proline content • 150-170 aa • Multigene complex on chromosome 12 • Multifunctional • In solution PRPs maintain salivary calcium phosphate in a supersaturated state (Gibbons and Hay, 1988) • Are a significant fraction of the acquired pellicle; important in dictating microbial attachment. • Pleomorphism • Some variants may be associated with greater susceptibility to dental caries • Bacteroides thetaiotomicron in mice (Jeff Gordon, et al)

  26. Statherin • 43 Kd phosphoprotein • Encoded on chromosome 4 • Like PRPs, maintains salivary calcium phosphate in a supersaturated state • Found in acquired pellicle • Involved in microbial attachment • May be evolutionarily related to the histatins

  28. Cystatins • Inhibitors of cysteine proteinases; widely distributed in tissues • MW ~14 kD, 120 aa, chromosome 20 (family 2), chromosome 3 (family 1, 3); derived from submandibular secretions • Most common in saliva are family 2 cystatins: S, (pI, 4.7), SA (pI, 4.3), SN (neutral), and C (pI, 7.5) • Myeloid cells are source of cystatin C • Cystatin C appears to increase in saliva from periodontitis and gingivitis cases • Importance: • neutralizing against microbial-derived cysteine proteinases • cystatin SN may exert an anti-adhesive effect by binding to bacterial pili (Reddy, 1998)

  31. Host defense peptides in humans • Adrenomedullin:52 aa vasoactive, cationic antibacterial peptide(Allakar RP, Kapas S, ’99, ’01, ’03) • Calprotectin:Two-subunit protein (, MRP8; , MRP18), anionic(Eversole, ’93; Ross and Herzberg, ’01) • SLPI: 12kDa non-glycosylated protein(Wahl, ’97; Shugars, ’97) • LL37: cathelicidin; PMNs, lymphocytes, macrophages, some epithelial cells (Lehrer and Ganz, ’02) • Human -defensins:beta sheeted; PMNS, Paneth cells(Kagan et al, 1994; Ouellette and Selsted, ‘96) • Human -defensins:beta sheeted; epithelial cells (Weinberg et al, ’98; Zasloff, ’02; Krisanaprakornkit et al, ’98, ’00; Quinones et al, ’03; Feng et al, ’05; Feng et al, ’06)

  32. Human -Defensins Produced by epithelial cells • Cationic, amphipathic peptides - hBD1, constitutive - hBD2, inducible - hBD3, inducible - hBD4, inducible ? - antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral • Mechanism of action anionic targets: LPS, LTA, phospholipids (phosphatidylglycerol) form pores in bacterial membrane • Cross-talk with adaptive immunity ++ ++ + + ++ ++ C C C C C C (Hancock, Lancet, 1997)

  34. Defensins in innate and adaptive immunity_______________________________________ Ganz, Science 286:420, 1999 Yang et al, Science 286:525, 1999

  35. -defensins in innate and adaptive immunity • - defensins recruit iDCs and T cells via CCR6(Yang et al, 1999) • -defensins promote maturation of dendritic cells via TLR4(Biragyn et al, 2002) • Recruitment of monocytes is hBD3 isoform dependent(Wu et al, 2003) • hBD2 is chemotactic towards human neutrophils via CCR6(Niyonsaba et a, 2004) • hBD2 and -3 interact with CXCR4(Quinones-Mateu et al, 2003; Feng et al, 2006) • hBD3 induces co-stimulatory molecule expression in human monocytes/mDCsvia TLR1/2(Funderberg et al, 2007)
