Abstract

The role of salivary glands in nitrate and nitrite metabolism is poorly understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of parotid gland ablation on dynamic metabolism of nitrate and nitrite in miniature pigs. The parotid glands of 5 healthy miniature pigs were bilaterally ablated by methyl violet. Concentrations of nitrate and nitrite of whole saliva, serum, and urine samples were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Results showed that bilateral ablation of the parotid glands led to a significant decrease of nitrate secretion from blood to saliva (P < 0.05) and thus low nitrite levels. Dysfunction of the parotid glands temporarily increased the systemic level of nitrate in miniature pigs after nitrate loading. This study suggests that the parotid glands play an important role in the balance of nitrate and nitrite levels in both whole saliva and the body.
