Evaluation of salivary sialic acid and salivary Alpha-L-Fucosidase levels in patients with oral submucous fibrosis- A cross-sectional study

Background: Saliva, a non-invasive diagnostic tool, is used to evaluate sialic acid and Alpha-L-Fucosidase in OSMF. Sialylation and fucosylation are glycosylation changes that mediate vital biological functions. By stabilizing glycoproteins and cellular membranes, sialic acid contributes to the iden...
