There is burgeoning interest in the ability to detect inflammatory markers in response to
stress within naturally occurring social contexts and/or across multiple time points per day …

Despite the integration of salivary inflammatory cytokines into research across the
biobehavioral, psychological, clinical, and health-related disciplines, there is little guidance …

Several chronic disorders including type 2 diabetes (T2D), obesity, heart disease and
cancer are preceded by a state of chronic low-grade inflammation. Biomarkers for the early …

Background There is an increasing interest in the ability to non-invasively assess biological
markers of stress. Measures of inflammation following exposure to acute stress have been …

Background Owing to its ease of collection, saliva is potentially the sample of choice in
diagnosis. Salivary biomolecules have provided a porthole in surveying a person's health …

Salivary markers of immune function are increasingly commonly used in studies of human
