Abstract:
Objective To investigate the age-related change of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) content in stimulated whole saliva. Methods Ninety-four healthy adults aged 20-94 yrs were enrolled. Samples of whole stimulated saliva were collected from all subjects, the SLPI content was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The flow rate of the SLPI in older groups was lower than in the young group (P0. 05) , but the contents of SLPI secretion per time-unit of the three older groups[(2. 12?1. 70), (2. 17?2. 65) , (1. 91?2. 51) ng/min, all P
