Salivary tissue factor, associated with microvesicles shed from cells in the mouth, promotes wound healing through the extrinsic blood coagulation cascade. [4] [5] [6] The enzymes lysozyme and peroxidase, [7] defensins, [8] cystatins and an antibody, IgA, [9] are all antibacterial. Thrombospondin and some other components are antiviral.
