Salivary AsHPX12 influences pre-blood meal associated behavioral properties in Anopheles stephensi
Background & objectives: A successful blood meal acquisition process by an adult female mosquito is accomplished through salivary glands, which releases a cocktail of proteins to counteract the vertebrate host’s immune homeostasis.

Salivary biomarker development using genomic, proteomic and metabolomic approaches. [PDF]
The use of saliva as a diagnostic sample provides a non-invasive, cost-efficient method of sample collection for disease screening without the need for highly trained professionals.

Salivary gland proteins alterations in the diabetic milieu
Salivary glands are considered the chief exocrine glands of the mouth and physiologically contribute to the maintenance of the homeostasis of the oral cavity.

Diabetes is known to influence salivary composition and function, eventually affecting the oral cavity. We thus evaluated saliva samples for levels of glucose, amylase and total protein, and assessed salivary flow rate in diabetics and healthy non-diabetics.

CD4 T lymphocyte autophagy is upregulated in the salivary glands of primary Sjögren’s syndrome patients and correlates with focus score and disease activity [PDF]
Background: Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is a common chronic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands and peripheral lymphocyte perturbation.

Immunochemical Identification of Salivary Proteins.
SummarySeven proteins in whole saliva and parotid secretion were shown to be immunochemically similar to plasma proteins by means of ring-precipitin, micro-immunoelectrophoresis and micro-double-diffusion technics employing specific antisera. By semi-quantitative measurement, the differences in protein concentration among the subjects'oral fluids were ...

Sorting and Secretion of Salivary Proteins [PDF]
Most salivary proteins are stored in secretion granules prior to export from acinar cells in response to neural stimuli. A small subset of these proteins undergo unstimulated secretion without apparent storage. This pathway probably comprises vesicles that bud from maturing storage granules and carries proteins that do not aggregate efficiently at the

Background Antibody responses against Anopheles salivary proteins can indicate individual exposure to bites of malaria vectors. The extent to which these salivary proteins are species-specific is not entirely resolved.

Genetics of Salivary Protein Polymorphisms [PDF]
Human salivary PRPs are determined by six closely linked genes on chromosome 12pl3.2. The many PRPs show complex electrophoretic patterns that differ between individuals and reflect numerous genetic polymorphisms. Frequent length and null polymorphisms are common among PRPs. Common themes emerge as a background for these PRP polymorphisms.
