Experimental
Saliva and serum collection of patients and samples molecules analysis
Salivary and serum arginine metabolites ADMA and SDMA observation
aliva and serum sampling Saliva were collected to analyze the selected markers as unstimulated samples during the early hours of the day. The saliva was centrifuged and then transferred into Eppendorf tubes. Venous puncture was performed after saliva collection and 10 mL of blood samples were collected by qualified staff (MY,EY) from each participant. Saliva and serum were then stored at -80 °C until analysis.
IL-6 levels in collected samples were determined by ELISA kits and analyzed according to manufacturers' instructions, with colorimetric assessment performed using a microplate reader at 450 nm with the assay detection range between 7.8 and 500 pg/mL. Concentrations were determined based on the respective assay standard curve. All samples were analyzed in duplicate, and the average was used in subsequent calculations. Determination of methylated arginine metabolites: The ADMA, SDMA, homoArg, arginine and L-NMMA levels in saliva and serum were assessed by a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS)* method, which was a modification of the method of Di Gangi et al.
