Aqueous-phenol extracts of Mycoplasma salivarium ATCC 23064 cells (APM) showed demonstrable differences from lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of Veillonella rodentium ATCC 17743. These were as follows: smaller amounts of amino sugars and an absence of 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate; local Shwartzman reactivity and body weight-decreasing activity, even though the activities were rather weak compared with those of LPSs. Therefore, phenol-water extractive components of Mycoplasma salivarium might be of pathogenic importance in mediating damaging effects on the periodontium.
