1. Differential Molecular Signature of Human Saliva Using ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy for Chronic Kidney Disease Diagnosis
Resumo Os sintomas da doença renal crônica (DRC) são frequentemente inespecíficos ou ausentes nos estágios iniciais desta doença. Desta forma, existe uma demanda para o desenvolvimento de plataformas com baixo custo, não-invasivas e com alta acurácia para o diagnóstico da DRC. Nós hipotetizamos que o nível dos componentes salivares se alteram pela

2. Histatin 5 and human lactoferrin inhibit biofilm formation of a fluconazole resistant Candida albicans clinical isolate
Abstract:Candida albicans is the most important fungal pathogen that causes infections in humans. Biofilms are hard-to-treat structures due to their high antifungal resistance. Saliva is a fluid that contains antimicrobial substances acting as the first-line of defense against pathogens, and its immune components may be potential tools for the discovery of n

4. Zika virus infection spread through saliva – a truth or myth?
Abstract In this Point-of-view article we highlighted some features related to saliva and virus infection, in special for zika virus. In addition, we pointed out the potential oral problems caused by a microcephaly originated by a zika virus infection. In the end the, we demonstrated the importance of a more comprehensive exploration of saliva and their comp

5. Arachnids of medical importance in Brazil: main active compounds present in scorpion and spider venoms and tick saliva
Arachnida is the largest class among the arthropods, constituting over 60,000 described species (spiders, mites, ticks, scorpions, palpigrades, pseudoscorpions, solpugids and harvestmen). Many accidents are caused by arachnids, especially spiders and scorpions, while some diseases can be transmitted by mites and ticks. These animals are widely dispersed in u

6. Detection of immunogenic proteins from Anopheles sundaicussalivary glands in the human serum
AbstractINTRODUCTION:The saliva of mosquitoes has an important role in the transmission of several diseases, including malaria, and contains substances with vasomodulating and immunomodulating effects to counteract the host physiological mechanisms and enhance pathogen transmission. As immunomodulatory components, salivary gland proteins can induce the gener

7. Saliva and dental erosion
Dental erosion is a multifactorial condition. The consideration of chemical, biological and behavioral factors is fundamental for its prevention and therapy. Among the biological factors, saliva is one of the most important parameters in the protection against erosive wear. Objective: This review discusses the role of salivary factors on the development of d

8. Variações genéticas da glicoproteína B do citomegalovírus humano e associação com o nível de citocinas em pacientes submetidos ao transplante alogênico de células tronco hematopoiéticas
Introduction: Factors as human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) load, recipient/donor histocompatibility, patient/donor gender, recipient age, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cytokine levels have been considered important prognostic parameters in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Glycoprotein B (gB) protein has proved to be important

9. Efeito da lesão eletrolítica do órgão subfornicial sobre os padrões cardiovasculares e salivatórios em ratos / Effect of the electrolyte injury of the subfornical agency on the Cardiovascular and Salivary Standards in Rats
Hipótese do estudo: O presente trabalho foi desenvolvido a partir da hipótese de que existe relação entre o órgão subfornicial de ratos (OSF) e o fluxo, conteúdo protéico e eletrolítico da saliva, pressão arterial e frequência cardíaca. Proposição: Objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a possível relação entre o órgão subfornicial (OSF) e o

10. The cariogenic dental biofilm: good, bad or just something to control?
This paper discusses the role of dental biofilm and adjunctive therapies in the management of dental caries. Dental biofilm is a site of bacterial proliferation and growth, in addition to being a location of acid production. It also serves as a reservoir for calcium exchange between the tooth and saliva. The salivary pellicle, a protein-rich biofilm layer, r

Avaliação da atividade de metaloproteinases e serinoproteinases na saliva de pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica. / Evaluation of the activity of metaloproteinases and serinoproteinases in the saliva of patients with pulmonary illness obstrutiva chronicle. / Evaluation of the activity of metaloproteinases and serinoproteinases in the saliva of patients with pulmonary illness obstrutiva chronicle. / Avaliação da atividade de metaloproteinases e serinoproteinases na saliva de pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica.
The present study was conducted to evaluate the activity of enzymatic components of saliva and possible correlations with clinical parameters in patients with COPD. The sample consisted of 30 individuals, 20 individuals with COPD and 10 controls. The clinical parameters of each individual were obtained by spirometry and 6 minute walk distance. Enzyme activit

12. Identification of antigens from the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, by sera from genetically resistant and susceptible bovines. / Identificação de antígenos do carrapato Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus por soros de bovinos geneticamente resistentes e suscetíveis ao parasita
The cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, causes enormous losses to animal health and production. Since it is a hematophagous parasite the tick expoliates its hosts and transmits diseases. Parasitism by the tick is mediated by its saliva, which inhibits the hosts local homeostatic reactions to its bite. Hosts mount immune responses against this p
