Saliva as a Diagnostic Tool in Oral Diseases

Özlem KartAyşen Yarat

Saliva is a body fluid, which is secreted from 3 major salivary glands (parotid, submandibular and sublingual) and many minor salivary glands. It contains organic and inorganic substances with 99% water, and has several functions such as contribution to articulation, digestion, cleansing and protection of the oral mucosa, and antimicrobial effects. The concentration of saliva’s substances vary according to the responses to physiological processes in the human body. Containing genetic materials such as DNA and RNA also highlights saliva as a potential diagnostic tool. Saliva analysis has advantages such as being cheaper, non-invasive, easier patient cooperation, and low technical sensitivity compared to blood tests; it can be used in the diagnosis of many diseases or routine risk assessments. It is also promising for its advantages in collection and storage of the samples. Advances in molecular biology, genomics, and proteomics have revealed the importance of saliva in the detection of many diseases, coining the term salivaomics. The early diagnosis of the diseases in which symptoms can be seen in late stages, may provide an easier treatment and improve the prognosis. In this review, the biomarkers of saliva in the presence of different diseases and the advantages of their use in diagnosis were examined.

Ağız Hastalıklarında Tanı Aracı Olarak Tükürük

Özlem KartAyşen Yarat

Tükürük; başlıca üç majör tükürük bezi (parotid, submandibular ve sublingual) ve birçok minör tükürük bezinden salgılanan bir vücut sıvısıdır. İçerisinde %99 suyla birlikte organik ve inorganik maddeler bulunduran tükürüğün; artikülasyon, sindirim, ağız mukozasının temizlenmesi ve korunması ile antimikrobiyal etkiler gibi birçok işlevi vardır. Tükürüğün içerisindeki maddelerin konsantrasyonları vücuttaki fizyolojik süreçlere verilen yanıtlara göre değişiklik gösterir. DNA ve RNA gibi genetik materyalleri barındırması da tükürüğü potansiyel bir teşhis aracı olarak öne çıkarmaktadır. Kan tahlillerine göre hasta kooperasyonunun daha kolay olması, daha ucuz, non-invaziv ve teknik hassasiyetin az olması gibi avantajları olan tükürük testleri; birçok hastalığın teşhisinde kullanılabileceği gibi rutin risk değerlendirmelerinde de kullanılabilir. Örnek toplanması ve saklanmasındaki avantajlarından dolayı da gelecek vaad etmektedir. Moleküler biyoloji, genomik ve proteomik alanlarındaki gelişmeler sayesinde salivaomik terimi ortaya çıkmış ve birçok hastalığın saptanmasında tükürüğün önemi belirtilmiştir. Özellikle semptomların geç görülmeye başladığı hastalıkların tükürük testleri sayesinde erken teşhis edilmesi, tedaviyi büyük oranda kolaylaştırabilir ve prognozu iyileştirebilir. Bu derlemede, farklı hastalıkların varlığında tükürükte bulunan biyobelirteçler ve teşhiste kullanımının avantajları incelenmiştir.
