Mucin in saliva plays a critical role in the hydration and lubrication of the oral mucosa by retaining water molecules, and its impaired function may be associated with hyposalivation-independent xerostomia. Age-dependent effects on salivary gland function and rheological properties of secreted saliva are not fully understood as aging is a complex and multifactorial process. We aimed to evaluate age-related changes in the rheological properties of saliva and elucidate the underlying mechanism. We performed ex vivo submandibular gland (SMG) and sublingual gland (SLG) perfusion experiments to collect saliva from isolated glands of young (12 wk old) and aged (27 mo old) female C57BL/6J mice and investigate the rheological properties by determining the spinnbarkeit (viscoelasticity). While fluid secretion was comparable in SMG and SLG of both mice, spinnbarkeit showed a significant decrease in SLG saliva of aged mice than that of young mice. There were no significant differences in GalNAc concentration between young and aged SLG saliva. Liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry analysis of SLG saliva revealed that (Hex)1(HexNAc)1(NeuAc)1atm/z793.31 was the most abundant O-glycan structure in SLG saliva commonly detected in both mice. Lectin staining of salivary gland tissue showed that SLG stained strongly withMaackia amurensislectin II (MAL II) whileSambucus nigraagglutinin (SNA) stained little, if any, SLG. The messenger RNA expression ofSt3gal1 that encodes an α-2,3 sialic acid sialyltransferase SIAT4-A showed a decrease in SLG of aged mice, confirmed by a Western blot analysis. Lectin blot analysis in SLG saliva revealed that the relative signal intensity detected by MAL II was significantly lower in aged SLG. Our results suggest that spinnbarkeit decreases in SLG of aging mice due to downregulation of sialic acid linked to α-2,3 sialic acid sialyltransferase expression.
