SYNTHETIC LACTOFERRIN IN DENTAL DISEASES PREVENTION AND TREATMENT: CURRENT TRENDS AND PERSPECTIVES


Cite item

Full Text

Abstract

The current trend in dental science is to develop novel approaches to the treatment of dental diseases. More often the body’s own proteins are being used, as well as lactoferrin that is the component of exocrine glands secretions. At present lactoferrin can be obtained biotechnologically. Lactoferrin is one of the innate immune system components and is a multifunctional glycoprotein from the transferrin family. This protein is capable of iron binding and thus deprives the microbiota of essential microelement. It’s efficacy against Str. mutans, A. actinomycetemcomitans, P. Gingivalis, P. Intermedia, Candida albicans was demonstrated. Lactoferrin is active against cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B and C virus. Immunomodulatory possibilities of lactoferrin have been shown. In dentistry recombinant lactoferrin is successfully applied in treatment of periodontal diseases, oral mucosa lesions of bacterial, viral and fungal etiology and also in dental caries prevention.
