Disease-Induced Changes in Salivary Gland Function and the Composition of Saliva
Although the physiological control of salivary secretion has been well studied, the impact of disease on salivary gland function and how this changes the composition and function of saliva is less well understood and is considered in this review ...

Survival of the enveloped bacteriophage Phi6 (a surrogate for SARS-CoV-2) in evaporated saliva microdroplets deposited on glass surfaces [PDF]
Survival of respiratory viral pathogens in expelled saliva microdroplets is central to their transmission, yet the factors that determine survival in such microdroplets are not well understood.

Rheological properties of saliva substitutes containing mucin, carboxymethylcellulose or polyethylenoxide [PDF]
Apparent viscosities at different shear rates were measured for 3 types of saliva substitutes: (a) mucin-containing saliva; (b) substitutes based upon carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and (c) solution of polyethylenoxide (PEO). The apparent viscosities were

Salivary exosomes as biomarkers for early diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma
Introduction: Due to late diagnosis, prognosis is poor for patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Saliva is in close proximity to tumours originating from the oral cavity and by profiling exosomes derived from saliva can be used as biomarkers

DNA Methylation Changes in Human Papillomavirus-Driven Head and Neck Cancers
Disruption of DNA methylation patterns is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Similar to other cancer types, human papillomavirus (HPV)-driven head and neck cancer (HNC) also reveals alterations in its methylation profile.

Circulating tumour DNA alterations: emerging biomarker in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Head and Neck cancers (HNC) are a heterogeneous group of upper aero-digestive tract cancer and account for 931,922 new cases and 467,125 deaths worldwide. About 90% of these cancers are of squamous cell origin (HNSCC).
