Salivary defense proteins: their network and role in innate and acquired oral immunity.Fábián et al., Budapest, Hungary. In Int J Mol Sci, 2011
Cationic peptides and other defense proteins like lysozyme, bactericidal/permeability increasing protein (BPI), BPI-like proteins, PLUNC (palate lung and nasal epithelial clone) proteins, salivary amylase, cystatins, prolin-rich proteins, mucins, peroxidases, statherin and others are primarily responsible for innate immunity.
