Abstract
Background: Previous research has reported changes in blood cytokine concentrations both after consumption of alcohol, and during the alcohol hangover phase. The aimof the current two studies was to further elucidate how alcohol and alcohol hangover influences salivary cytokine concentration in healthy participants. Methods: In study 1 (N = 15) participants consumed alcohol on the test day and placebo on the control day. Saliva was collected every hour for 8 h. In study 2 (N = 35), saliva was collected the morning following an evening of alcohol consumption (mean of 8.48 +/-1.39 h after stopping with drinking) and on an alcohol-free control day. In both studies cytokine concentrations that could be reliably assessed (IL-1b, IL-8, TNF-a in both studies, and IL-6, IL-10 in study 2 only) were compared between both test days. Results: Directly after consuming alcohol (study 1) significant increases in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1b, Il-8) were found on multiple timepoints (p
