[Some salivary proteins as a biomarkers of local and general diseases. Literature review].
The article is a review of literature concerning proteins present in saliva, which matter in diagnostics. Much consideration has been given to osteonectin, a not well known glycoprotein. Osteonectin is a normal matrix bone component, which might serve as a marker of bone resorption and could be a potential marker for periodontal disease activity. The authors also mentioned oxidative stress and associations between the state of the oral cavity and general diseases.
