Functional Specialization of Human Salivary Glands and Origins of Proteins Intrinsic to Human Saliva

Cell Reports, 2020
Salivary proteins are essential for maintaining health in the oral cavity and proximal digestive tract and serve as a diagnostic window into human disease. However, their precise organ origins remain unclear.

Salivary proteins and microbiota as biomarkers for early childhood caries risk assessment

International Journal of Oral Science, 2017
Early childhood caries (ECC) is a term used to describe dental caries in children aged 6 years or younger. Oral streptococci, such as Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sorbrinus, are considered to be the main etiological agents of tooth decay in ...

Analysis of the association between salivary proteins and oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing IMRT: a longitudinal study [PDF]

BMC Oral Health
Introduction This longitudinal study assessed the association between salivary protein composition and the clinical onset/severity of oral mucositis (OM) in patients with head and neck tumours treated with intensity-modulated-radiotherapy (IMRT). Methods

Salivary proteins potentially derived from horizontal gene transfer are critical for salivary sheath formation and other feeding processes [PDF]

Communications Biology
Herbivorous insects employ an array of salivary proteins to aid feeding. However, the mechanisms behind the recruitment and evolution of these genes to mediate plant-insect interactions remain poorly understood.

Interactions between Salivary Proteins and Dietary Polyphenols: Potential Consequences on Gastrointestinal Digestive Events.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2022
The present review documents the current knowledge and hypotheses on how polyphenols-saliva interactions may modulate the bioaccessibility or bioavailability of nutrients and highlights research prospects in the field. After an updated description of the

Salivary Proteins as Dental Caries Biomarkers: A Systematic Review

Caries Research, 2022
Salivary proteins play an important role in repairing mechanisms of damaged tissues and the maintenance of oral health. However, there is a dearth of information in the literature regarding the concentrations of salivary proteins in caries-free (CF) and ...

Salivary Gland Proteome during Adult Development and after Blood Feeding of Female Anopheles dissidens Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Understanding changes in mosquito salivary proteins during the time that sporozoite maturation occurs and after blood feeding may give information regarding the roles of salivary proteins during the malarial transmission.

May salivary gland secretory proteins from hematophagous leeches (Hirudo verbana) reach pharmacologically relevant concentrations in the vertebrate host? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Saliva of hematophagous leeches (Hirudo sp.) contains bioactive proteins which allow the leech proper feeding and storage of ingested blood, but may also exert effects in the host.

New Anthocyanin–Human Salivary Protein Complexes [PDF]

Langmuir, 2015
The interaction between phenolic compounds and salivary proteins is considered the basis of the poorly understood phenomenon of astringency. Furthermore, this interaction is an important factor in relation to their bioavailability. In this work, interactions between anthocyanin and human salivary protein fraction were studied by mass spectrometry ...
