Genetic Regulation of Salivary Proteins in Rodents

Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 1991
The presence of a protein in the cell is the result of a complex pathway that is known by the term gene expression. In this article we review the existing literature on the structure and expression of representative salivary gland genes and their regulated expression during development and upon extracellular stimulation.

Heritable Salivary Proteins and Dental Disease

Human Heredity, 1980
A sample consisting of 92 black subjects was examined in this study. According to results of preliminary statistical tests there is a significant relationship between certain genetically determined salivary factors and individual susceptibility to dental disease in the racial group studied.

The Effect of Neuraminidase on the Properties of Salivary Proteins

Journal of Dental Research, 1972
Neuraminidase rapidly cleaves sialic acid residues and increases the turbidity of human saliva. The isotherm for the adsorption of salivary proteins to hydroxyapatite is unchanged by preliminary treatment of the saliva or the hydroxyapatite with neuraminidase.

The Role of Salivary Proteins in the Mechanism of Astringency

Journal of Food Science, 2012
Abstract:  Understanding astringency has focused on the interaction of tannins with the salivary proline‐rich proteins (PRPs), although it remains unclear if other astringents precipitate the PRPs or how this interaction relates to sensory perceptions of astringency.

Expression of human salivary protein genes

Biochemical Genetics, 1988
Human proline-rich proteins (PRPs) are polymorphic, homologous in sequence, and linked in a cluster called the human salivary protein complex (SPC). Recently this complex was localized to human chromosome band 12p13.2 (Mamula et al., Cytogenet. Cell Genet. 39:279, 1985).

Analysis of Salivary Exosomal Proteins in Young Adults with Severe Periodontitis.

Oral Diseases, 2019
OBJECTIVES Salivary exosomes harbour numerous constituents associated with oral and systemic diseases. However, no reports addressed components of salivary exosomes in patients with periodontitis.

Salivary gland proteins of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2000
Several properties of the salivary glands of Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes were analysed. The amount of protein in female salivary glands increased from 0.26 microg on day one after emergence to about 1.4 microg on day seven. The major polypeptides found in the female salivary glands had molecular weights of 35.7, 28.3, and 20.5 kDa.

Distribution of S-100b protein in normal salivary glands and salivary gland tumors

Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histopathology, 1983
Immunohistochemical studies were performed for the presence of S-100b protein in non-neoplastic and neoplastic salivary gland tissues by the peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP) method. Some cases of pleomorphic adenoma were investigated by immuno-electron microscopy.

Interactions of Grape Seed Tannins with Salivary Proteins

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1998
To evaluate the amount and type of condensed tannins binding salivary proteins, which are supposed to be involved in astringent sensation, model systems allowing further analyses of proteins and condensed tannins were developed. The precipitates formed after addition of grape seed tannins to salivary proteins indicate that a binding interaction occurs.

Steroid Binding by Mouse Salivary Proteins

Biochemical Genetics, 1998
The goals of this study were to determine the steroid-binding specificity of the mouse salivary androgen-binding protein (ABP) family and to ascertain whether there might be other proteins in mouse saliva capable of binding steroids. The optimal conditions for testosterone binding by mouse salivary proteins were determined using a small-scale ...
