The relationship between the sialic acid concentrations in the serum and whole saliva in rats with naturally occurring gingivitis.

چکیده
Pocket probing depth was correlated with the amount of salivary sialic acid in pilocarpine-stimulated saliva in ODU plaque-susceptible rats (ODUS/Odu) (r = 0.657, P < 0.01), but not with the content of serum sialic acid. There was no difference in the amount of serum sialic acid content between ODUS/Odu and plaque-resistant rats. These results suggest that the amount of sialic acid in the saliva can be a useful index of the severity of periodontal disease.

Background: Sialic acid is a component of serum that is elevated in diseases such as diabetes and certain malignancies. The normal range of SSA concentration and serum neuraminidase activity in different populations are varied, probably due to racial differences. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to obtain the average SSA concentration and serum neuraminidase activity, in an Iran...

BACKGROUND Chronic gingivitis and periodontitis are inflammatory diseases. An important function of host sialic acid is to regulate innate immunity. The aim of the study was to assess the concentration of Total sialic acid (TSA) in saliva and serum and also to find out their association if any, in periodontal health and disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 90 subjects were clinically exa...
