Silicones 33-41 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 84-91 24506943-0 2014 Adherence of Candida albicans to silicone is promoted by the human salivary protein SPLUNC2/PSP/BPIFA2. Silicones 33-41 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 96-102 24506943-5 2014 We show here that a protein of similar size was identified in replicate blots of the eluate from saliva-treated silicone when the blots were probed with antibodies to human SPLUNC2, a salivary protein with reported microbial agglutination properties. Silicones 112-120 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 173-180 24506943-6 2014 In addition, SPLUNC2 was depleted from saliva that had been incubated with silicone coupons. Silicones 75-83 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 13-20 24506943-9 2014 We conclude that SPLUNC2 binds to silicone and acts as a receptor for C. albicans adherence to, and subsequent colonization of, voice prosthesis silicone. Silicones 34-42 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 17-24 24506943-9 2014 We conclude that SPLUNC2 binds to silicone and acts as a receptor for C. albicans adherence to, and subsequent colonization of, voice prosthesis silicone. Silicones 145-153 BPI fold containing family A member 2 Homo sapiens 17-24
