Ingestion of Streptococcus mutans induces secretory immunoglobulin A and caries immunity.

S M Michalek, J R McGhee, J Mestecky, R R Arnold, L Bozzo.   

Abstract

Ingestion of killed cells of a highly cariogenic strain of Streptococcus mutans induced specific antibodies in both saliva and milk but not in serum of gnotobiotic rats. These antibodies were associated with the immunoglobulin A class. When infected with Streptococcus mutans, orally immunized animals developed significantly fewer carious lesions than nonimmunized infected controls.
