Review Citation - WoS: 116Citation - Scopus: 125Salivary Biomarkers: Novel Noninvasive Tools To Diagnose Chronic Inflammation(Springer, 2023) Dongiovanni, Paola; Meroni, Marica; Casati, Sara; Goldoni, Riccardo; Thomaz, Douglas Vieira; Kehr, Nermin Seda; Galimberti, DanielaSeveral chronic disorders including type 2 diabetes (T2D), obesity, heart disease and cancer are preceded by a state of chronic low-grade inflammation. Biomarkers for the early assessment of chronic disorders encompass acute phase proteins (APP), cytokines and chemokines, pro-inflammatory enzymes, lipids and oxidative stress mediators. These substances enter saliva through the blood flow and, in some cases, there is a close relation between their salivary and serum concentration. Saliva can be easily collected and stored with non-invasive and cost-saving procedures, and it is emerging the concept to use it for the detection of inflammatory biomarkers. To this purpose, the present review aims to discuss the advantages and challenges of using standard and cutting-edge techniques to discover salivary biomarkers which may be used in diagnosis/therapy of several chronic diseases with inflammatory consequences with the pursuit to possibly replace conventional paths with detectable soluble mediators in saliva. Specifically, the review describes the procedures used for saliva collection, the standard approaches for the measurement of salivary biomarkers and the novel methodological strategies such as biosensors to improve the quality of care for chronically affected patients.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 32Luminescent Device for the Detection of Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Artificial Urine(American Chemical Society, 2018) Ammanath, Gopal; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Palaniappan, Alagappan; Liedberg, BoA luminescent paper-based device for the visual detection of oxidative stress biomarkers is reported. The device consists of a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane impregnated with poly(3-alkoxy-4-methylthiophene) (PT) for colorimetric detection. 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarker associated with oxidative stress, is used as a model system for validating the proposed methodology. The detection strategy is based on monitoring the changes in optical properties of PT associated with its conformational changes upon interaction with an aptamer in the presence and in the absence of 8-OHdG. Fluorometric and colorimetric monitoring revealed linear responses for 8-OHdG concentrations between 50 pM and 500 nM (∼14 pg/mL to 140 ng/mL), with limits of detection of ∼300 pM and ∼350 pM, respectively for (n = 3). Colorimetric responses in artificial urine ascertained rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of 8-OHdG at clinically relevant (pM to nM) concentration levels. Furthermore, the proposed methodology enables point-of-care diagnostics for oxidative stress without requiring sophisticated instrumentation.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 22Fucoxanthin Content of Cylindrotheca Closterium and Its Oxidative Stress Mediated Enhancement(Central Fisheries Research Inst, 2016) Erdoğan, Ayşegül; Demirel, Zeliha; Conk Dalay, Meltem; Eroğlu, Ahmet EminProduction of fucoxanthin by diatoms has become an alternative research area due to their low cost, convenience and diversity. The fucoxanthin content of Cylindrotheca closterium and its enhancement by altering the cultivation conditions via oxidative stress were investigated in this study. For this purpose, the extraction parameters were optimized and the highest fucoxanthin concentration (6.58 mg g-1) was achieved within 15.0 minutes at 40 °C. Then, this yield reached to 10.15 mg g-1 in the presence of NaOCl and Fe2+. It is worth noting that, this is the first time that the effect of oxidative stress on fucoxanthin production in diatom has been studied according to our knowledge. Therefore, the results of this study and the discussion about the mechanisms can be a reference for the enrichment of fucoxanthin from other diatoms.
