Abstract

The present study focused on the research of new biomarkers based on the liquid chromatography-multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) proteomic profile in whole saliva of patients with periodontitis compared with periodontal healthy patients. A 30-min multiplexed liquid chromatography-MRM method was used for absolute quantification of 35 plasma biomarkers in saliva from control patients and patients with periodontitis. Three proteins namely hemopexin, plasminogen andα-fibrinogen were shown to be clearly related to the presence of periodontitis compared with healthy patients. Apolipoprotein H was found to discriminate for the first time chronic and aggressive periodontitis. Our results indicate that this innovative MRM method could be used to screen for periodontitis in clinical environment. Furthermore, apolipoprotein H was found to be a discriminant biomarker of aggressive periodontitis.
