الوصف: | Contains fulltext : 251424.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) ; OBJECTIVE: Treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) patients with glucocorticoids is often challenging since there is a delicate balance between over- and undertreatment. Treatment can be monitored noninvasively by measuring salivary androstenedione (A4) and 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). Optimal treatment monitoring requires the establishment of reference values in saliva. DESIGN: A descriptive study. PATIENTS: For this study saliva of 255 healthy paediatric and adult volunteers with an age range of 4-75 years old was used. MEASUREMENTS: We developed a sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method, assessed salivary A4 and 17-OHP stability, and measured A4 and 17-OHP concentrations in saliva collected in the morning, afternoon, and evening. RESULTS: We quantified A4 and 17-OHP concentrations in the morning, afternoon, and evening and demonstrated that there is a significant rhythm with the highest levels in the morning and decreasing levels over the day. A4 and 17-OHP concentrations display an age-dependent pattern. These steroids remain stable in saliva at ambient temperature for up to 5 days. CONCLUSIONS: Good stability of the steroids in saliva enables saliva collection by the patient at home. Since salivary A4 and 17-OHP display a diurnal rhythm and age-dependent pattern, we established reference values for both children and adults at three time points during the day. These reference values support treatment monitoring of children and adults with CAH. |
