[Diagnostic value of biomarkers of bone metabolism in the gingival fluid in inflammatory-destructive and tumor oral pathology]. / Informativnost' otsenki biomarkerov kostnogo metabolizma v desnevoi zhidkosti pri vospalitel'no-destruktivnoi i opukholevoi patologii v polosti rta.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the work was to determine the informativeness of the assessment of biochemical markers in the gingival fluid with destructive bone changes in the peri-implantation area, primary tumor lesion of the alveolar processes of the jaws and metastatic destruction of the jaw bone tissue in cancer of the large salivary glands. The study included 51 patients aged 30 to 75 years of both sexes. Depending on the genesis of destruction of the bone tissue of the lower jaw, three groups of patients were identified. Group 1 - 20 patients with peri-implantitis. Group 2 - 22 patients diagnosed with cancer of the oral floor mucosa (ICD C04) with erosion of the cortical bone or dental socket by a primary tumor. Group 3 - 9 patients with adenocarcinoma of the large salivary glands with metastatic lesions of the lower jaw. 15 people were practically healthy persons without periodontal pathology. The test material was gingival fluid or exudate from peri-implantation pockets. The content of cathepsin K, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TAP) was determined by the enzyme immunoassay, and the bone fraction of alkaline phosphatase (BAP) was determined by the kinetic method. RESULTS: As a result, it was found that in group 1 in the exudate of the peri-implantation sulcus, the content of cathepsin K increased in comparison with the control by 2.5 times (p<0.05), TAP by 1.6 times (p<0.05). in groups 1 and 2, there was a moderate increase in the production of activated osteoblasts of KAP. In cancer of the mucous membrane of the floor of the mouth, a tenfold increase in the concentration of cathepsin K and TAP in the gingival fluid was observed. With metastatic lesions of the jaw in patients with adenocarcinoma of the large salivary glands, along with a multiple increase in the concentration of cathepsin K and TAP in the gingival fluid, there was a twenty-fold increase in the bone formation marker BAP, which indicated a mixed type of metastases and was a differential diagnostic criterion for metastatic lesion of bone tissue in comparison with the primary metastatic lesion of bone tissue. CONCLUSION: Thus, biochemical markers are sensitive indicators of remodeling of bone tissue both in local inflammatory and destructive processes in peri-implantitis and in primary and metastatic tumor lesions of the jaws.

[Differential bioinformational model for diagnostics of inflammatory and tumor diseases of the parotid salivary gland]. / Differentsial'naya bioinformatsionnaya model' diagnostiki vospalitel'nykh i opukholevykh zabolevanii okoloushnoi slyunnoi zhelezy.

THE AIM: Of the work was to develop a diagnostic algorithm for the differentiation of chronic inflammatory, benign and malignant processes in the parotid salivary gland (PSG) by the ratio of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the oral fluid. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The epidemiological group of patients with cancer of the parotid salivary gland included 140 people from the oncological register of the Rostov region with the date of diagnosis, from 1969 to 2020. The clinical part of the work was performed on 70 patients of both sexes aged 50 to 80 years: 15 patients with chronic nonspecific parenchymal sialadenitis of the PSG (ICD K11.2) (group 1), 19 patients with pleomorphic adenoma of the PSG (ICD D11.0) (2 group), 20 patients with cancer of the PSG (ICD C07) (group 3) and 16 healthy individuals without pathology of the oral cavity (control group). The concentration of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) was determined in the oral fluid by enzyme immunoassay. RESULTS: It was found that in 58.5% of cases at the initial examination of patients with PSG cancer referred to a tertiary care hospital an erroneous opinion was formed about the inflammatory origin of the process. In inflammatory and tumor lesions of the PSG multidirectional differences are noted in the ratio between the concentrations of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators in the oral fluid. In chronic sialadenitis of PSG in the oral fluid a moderate increase in the levels of IL-6 and IL-10 occurs, in the presence of adenoma of PSG, the concentration of IL-6 does not change while IL-10 increases threefold, and there is a sharp and unidirectional increase in the concentration of cytokines of the opposite groups in case of a malignant lesion of PSG. CONCLUSION: Comparison of the concentration of IL-6 and IL-10 in saliva and their ratio defined by the developed discriminant models helps to make an individual diagnostic decision in a specific clinical situation.
