Profound differences between humans and rodents in the ability to concentrate salivary nitrate: Implications for translational research
In humans dietary circulating nitrate accumulates rapidly in saliva through active transport in the salivary glands. By this mechanism resulting salivary nitrate concentrations are 10–20 times higher than in plasma. In the oral cavity nitrate is reduced by commensal bacteria to nitrite, which is sub...
