Presence of salivary Protein C and salivary peptide P-C-like immunoreactivity in the laryngo-tracheo-bronchial glands

Acta Endocrinologica, 1985
Abstract. An indirect immunofluorescence technique using antisera aganist salivary peptide P-C and against salivary Protein C was carried out on the laryngeal, tracheal and bronchial glands to examine whether salivary peptide P-C-like immunoreactivity, recently demonstrated in the serous cells of the human salivary glands, was also present in those of ...

The Amino Acid Sequence of a Salivary Proline-Rich Peptide, P-C, and Its Relation to a Salivary Proline-Rich Phosphoprotein, Protein C

The Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
A basic proline-rich peptide, P-C, was isolated from human whole saliva and its amino acid sequence was determined to be Gly-Arg-Pro-Gln-Gly-Pro-Pro-Gln-Gln-Gly-Gly-His-Gln-Gln-Gly-Pro-Pro-Pro-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Gln-Gly-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gln-Gly-Gly-Arg-Pro-Gln-Gly-Pro-Pro-Gln-Gly-Gln-Ser-Pro-Gln.

Vasoactive intestinal peptide evoked secretion of fluid and protein from rat salivary glands and the development of supersensitivity

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1983
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) injected intravenously was found to induce a flow of saliva from both the parotid and the submaxillary gland in the rat. The secretion was slow in onset. The amount of saliva secreted from the parotid gland was less than that from the submaxillary gland. Parotid saliva was very viscous.

Proteins and peptides of the salivary gland secretion of medicinal leeches Hirudo verbana, H. medicinalis, and H. orientalis

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2008
The protein and peptide composition of medicinal leech salivary gland secretion (SGS) was analyzed in preparations obtained in July from three species--Hirudo verbana, H. medicinalis, and H. orientalis. Two-dimensional electrophoresis (molecular mass 10-150 kD and pI 3-10) revealed no distinctions in the distribution of over 100 silver-stained proteins.

Protein secretion in salivary glands of cats in vivo and in vitro in response to vasoactive intestinal peptide

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1990
In anaesthetized cats exogenous vasoactive intestinal peptide failed to elicit any secretion of saliva from the submandibular and parotid glands. However, protein release from both glands occurred in response to VIP in the presence of α‐ and β‐adrenoceptor blocking agents and was dose‐dependent.

'Salivary peptide P-C' of human pancreatic B-cells shares only partly immunoreactivity with salivary peptide P-C indicating a new B-cell protein which is different from insulin

Acta Endocrinologica, 1989
Abstract. Salivary peptide P-C like immunoreactivity, originally isolated from human whole saliva has later been found in the human pancreatic B-cells. In the present work an indirect immunofluorescence technique using monoclonal antibodies against isolated salivary peptide P-C was applied to Bouin fixed pancreas and parotid glands to study the ...

Sensing and quantification of salivary beta-amyloid peptides and protein sequencing for the saliva of normal and AD patients

2015 IEEE SENSORS, 2015
Using salivary beta-amyloid peptides, the results to diagnose AD are briefly introduced. The quantity of AD peptides in the saliva of normal young man (nYM, normal elderly (nE) group and AD patients is measured in the range from very low concentration (∼pg/ml) to high concentration (∼ng/ml).

A Synthetic Peptide Based on a Natural Salivary Protein Reduces Demineralisation in Model Systems for Dental Caries and Erosion

International Journal of Peptide Research and Therapeutics, 2007
The salivary protein statherin is an inhibitor of spontaneous and secondary precipitation of hydroxyapatite (HAp). It is also detected in enamel pellicle. The N-terminal region of statherin is involved in its adsorption onto tooth surfaces, and, calcium binding. A peptide (StN21) was designed with a 21 amino acid sequence identical to the N-terminus of

Salivary zinc finger protein 510 peptide as a novel biomarker for detection of oral squamous cell carcinoma in early stages

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2011
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most frequent malignancies worldwide. Early diagnosis can mean adequate treatment and increase survival.This study uses ClinProt technique to identify salivary biomarkers for early diagnosis of OSCC. A total of 77 salivary samples from both OSCC patients (n=47) and healthy donors (n=30) were analyzed ...

The coupling of RP-HPLC and ESI-MS in the study of small peptides and proteins solubile in acidic solution, secreted by human salivary glands in vitro

European Journal of Morphology, 2003
The aim of this study was the development of a method based on the coupling of RP-HPLC and ESI-MS for identifying and quantifying proteins and peptides secreted by human salivary glands in vitro. Salivary gland specimens, obtained from informed patients undergoing surgical resection, were incubated in an optimized medium.
