Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the differentiated antioxidant profile of human saliva.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the profound antioxidant capacity of saliva secreted from parotid glands is related either to the different physiological demands related to eating, to oral integrity maintenance, or to the high content of deleterious redox-active transitional metal ions present in parotsid saliva.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salivary analysis in oral cancer patients: DNA and protein oxidation, reactive nitrogen species, and antioxidant profile.
TL;DR: The RNS (nitrosamines: nitrates, NO3, and nitrites, NO2) are also produced by the reaction of ROS and other free radicals with nitric oxide (NO) and are therefore in equilibrium with it.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concomitant Analysis of Salivary Tumor Markers—A New Diagnostic Tool for Oral Cancer
TL;DR: Salivary testing is noninvasive, making it an attractive, effective alternative to serum testing, and the possibility of developing home testing kits would further facilitate it as a diagnostic aid, enabling patients to monitor their own health at home.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salivary analysis of oral cancer biomarkers
Thomas Shpitzer,Yaniv Hamzany,Gideon Bahar,Raphael Feinmesser,Dana Savulescu,Iris Borovoi,Moshe Gavish,Rafael M. Nagler +7 more
TL;DR: Cancer-related changes in salivary tumour markers may be used as a diagnostic tool for diagnosis, prognosis and post-operative monitoring, as all alterations correlated with each other may belong to a single carcinogenetic network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between age, drugs, oral sensorial complaints and salivary profile.
TL;DR: A reduction in salivary function and altered composition are age related and a compensatory capacity that prevents OSCs appears to exist in elderly patients who do not use drugs, but drugs were found to have an extensive effect on Oscs.
