Phosphorylation level of four specific salivary phospho-peptides, namely statherin, histatin 1 (both, p &lt; 0.0001) and acidic proline-rich proteins (both entire and truncated isoforms) (p &lt; 0.005) was found significantly lower in autistic patients, with hypo-phosphorylation of at least one peptide observed in 18 ASD subjects (66%).
