Vulnerability of patients with Down syndrome (DS) to oxidative stress and damage has been attributed to the overexpression of the superoxide dismutase gene, which is located in the triplicated critical region 21q22.2 of chromosome 21. The objective of this study was to investigate enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems and levels of biomarkers of oxidative damage in saliva of patients with DS. Saliva samples were collected from 30 patients with DS and 30 controls, ranging in age from 14 to 24 years. The following parameters were analyzed: superoxide dismutase activity, concentration of malondialdehyde, carbonylated proteins, uric acid, vitamin C and total protein, peroxidase activity, and total antioxidant capacity. Patients with DS presented significantly higher superoxide dismutase activity and malondialdehyde levels than controls (p<0.05). On the other hand, no difference in carbonylated proteins or antioxidants (uric acid, vitamin C, peroxidase, and total antioxidant capacity) was observed between DS patients and controls (p>0.05). Patients with DS also presented higher salivary total protein content (p<0.05). In conclusion, despite similar antioxidant levels patients with DS are more vulnerable to oxidative stress in saliva as indicated by a significant increase in malondialdehyde concentration and superoxide dismutase activity
