Abstract

Objectives

To evaluate salivary adiponectin and adenosine deaminase (ADA) in women suffering from Sjögren’s syndrome (SS).

Methods

Salivary adiponectin and ADA were measured in patients with SS (n = 17) and compared to their values in healthy controls (n = 13) and patients suffering from drug-induced xerostomia (non-SS sicca group; n = 19). A clinical history was made for each patient, patients were examined clinically, and xerostomia inventory (XI) was performed.

Results

Salivary adiponectin corrected by total protein was higher in patients with SS than in healthy individuals (P < 0.05) or patients with non-SS sicca (P < 0.01) and correlated with XI (r = 0.555; P < 0.05). Salivary ADA was higher in patients with SS and non-SS sicca compared to controls (P < 0.05 in both cases).

Conclusion

The results of the present study indicate that adiponectin and ADA are increased in the saliva of patients with SS.

Clinical relevance

Salivary adiponectin corrected by total protein can be a potential biomarker of SS.
