Salivary SIgA and SIgA 1 in coeliac disease, inflammatory bowel disease and controls

Abstract: Levels of secretory IgA1 (SIgA1) in the saliva have not been measured previously in either coeliac disease (CD) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Saliva was collected from coeliacs, IBD patients and controls. The concentration of total SIgA in saliva was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with an anti-human SIgA antibody as the bound phase and human SIgA isolated from colostrum as the standard. The concentration of SIgA1 was determined using an ELISA with a lectin with a high affinity for… Show more

“…While this is consistent with the concept of impaired host defense, Warner et al [ 30 ] observed the opposite effect and detected increased secretion of IgA in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This would correspond to the postulate of Savage et al [ 31 ] that elevated serum IgA levels are associated with inflammation of the mucosal surfaces throughout the gastrointestinal tract, including the oral cavity.…”

“… demonstrated significantly higher salivary total protein, albumin, concentrations of IgA and IgG, as well as salivary peroxidase, ceruloplasmin ferroxidase and myeloperoxidase activities, in patients with celiac disease compared with healthy controls . Patients with celiac disease produced lower amounts of salivary amylase, secretory IgA and IgM compared with healthy controls . No differences in the salivary flow rate of patients with Crohn's disease were observed in this study .…”

“…The level of SIgA in saliva provides much information about the functional status of the entire mucosal immune system [34]. In addition, its concentration in saliva is high (∼ 35-81 μg/ml) but low in serum (∼9-18 μg/ml) in adults [6,34,35,36]. Moreover, previous studies have shown underglycosylated IgA molecules produced by tonsils could be one origin of glomerular IgA in patients with IgAN [33,37,38].…”
