Salivary Defense Proteins: Their Network and Role in Innate and Acquired Oral Immunity
There are numerous defense proteins present in the saliva. Although some of these molecules are present in rather low concentrations, their effects are additive and/or synergistic, resulting in an efficient molecular defense network of the oral cavity. Moreover, local concentrations of these protein...
