ABSTRACT

Objective

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a paradoxical effect associated with bone modifying agents (BMAs) and other drugs. Currently no valuable diagnostic or prognosis biomarkers exist. This goal of this research was to study MRONJ related salivary proteome.

Materials and Methods

This case-control aimed to study salivary proteome in MRONJ versus control groups i) formed from BMAs consumers and ii) healthy individuals to unravel biomarkers. 38 samples of unstimulated whole saliva (18 MRONJ patients, 10 BMA consumers, and 10 healthy controls) were collected. Proteomic analysis by SWATH-MS coupled to bioinformatics analysis was executed.

Results

586 proteins were identified, 175 proteins showed significant differences among MRONJ versus controls. SWATH-MS revealed differentially expressed proteins among three groups, which have never isolated. These proteins had distinct roles including cell envelope organization, positive regulation of vesicle fusion, positive regulation of receptor binding, or regulation of low-density lipoprotein particle clearance. Integrative analysis prioritised 3 proteins (MMP9, AACT and HBD). Under receiver operating characteristic analysis, this panel discriminated MRONJ with a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 78.9%.

Conclusion

These findings may inform of a novel biomarker panel for MRONJ prediction or diagnosis. Nonetheless, further research is needed to validate this panel.
