The chronically pilocarpine-treated rat has been proposed as an animal model for the disease cystic fibrosis, a generalized exocrinopathy. The effect of chronic pilocarpine treatment on structure, composition, and function of the acinar cells of rat submandibular gland and pancreas was investigated by electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, and biochemical analysis. The morphological effects of chronic pilocarpine treatment were most pronounced in the pancreas. The number and size of the zymogen granules was increased, and the granules had a less electron-dense appearance. X-ray microanalysis at the cellular level showed in both the submandibular gland and the pancreas a significant increase in calcium and a decrease in sodium. The increase in cellular calcium concentrations can be explained by an increase in the relative volume of secretory material in the cell (assessed by morphometry) and an increase in the local calcium concentration in the secretory material (assessed by X-ray microanalysis at the subcellular level). Chronic pilocarpine treatment caused a disturbance of glycolysis and energy metabolism in the submandibular gland, but no significant effects in this respect were noted in the pancreas. On the other hand, a nearly twofold increase of the pancreatic amylase activity was noted. The pancreas appeared somewhat hyperreactive towards cholinergic stimulation. 相似文献

The effect of chronic treatment with cystic fibrosis (CF) fibroblast medium on rat submandibular gland and pancreas was investigated. Rats were injected for 8 days with conditioned medium from normal or CF fibroblasts. The elemental content of the acinar cells was measured by X-ray microanalysis of cryosections. A significant increase in cellular calcium, and a decrease in cellular sodium concentrations were found after treatment with CF medium. The ultrastructure of the submandibular acinar cells was not affected by the conditioned CF fibroblast culture medium. No effect of treatment with CF medium on ultrastructure and elemental content of pancreatic acinar cells could be demonstrated. The response to alpha-adrenergic, beta-adrenergic, cholinergic, and peptidergic stimulation in submandibular gland acinar cells of rats injected with normal or CF medium was investigated in vitro. With regard to changes in elemental composition after stimulation, no significant differences in response between the two groups could be found. Apparently, a factor in conditioned medium from cultured CF fibroblasts induces a net increase in calcium content of rat submandibular gland acinar cells. Possibly, this factor acts in a similar way in CF patients and may cause elevated calcium levels in CF cells. 相似文献

The elemental composition of fibroblasts from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and from healthy controls was compared by means of electron probe X-ray micro-analysis. Significantly lower sodium levels (p < .01) and higher calcium levels (p < .02) were found in CF fibroblasts, indicating a disturbance of ion regulation in these cells. Treatment with Staphylococcus aureus protein A and gammaglobulin (proteins that may influence the ciliotoxic CF factor) did not change the elemental composition of the fibroblasts. 相似文献

The effects of chronic treatment with isoproterenol, reserpine, prenalterol, and terbutaline on rat parotid gland were investigated by electron microscopy and X-ray microanalysis. Chronic isoproterenol treatment induced lower potassium and calcium concentrations in the acinar cells. The cells were enlarged and contained more and larger zymogen granules than acinar cells in the controls. The zymogen granules contained markedly less sulfur, potassium, and calcium than in control animals. Prenalterol had effects similar to those of isoproterenol, but less pronounced, whereas terbutaline had no significant effects. Chronic treatment with reserpine caused a decrease in calcium levels but did not affect potassium levels. The changes in elemental composition in parotid acinar cells after chronic treatment with isoproterenol and reserpine differed from those induced by the same treatment in the submandibular gland of the rat. 相似文献

A congenital cystic malformation occurred in the submandibular salivary gland of a neonate. The embryogenesis and differential diagnosis are discussed. Since it seems to be a product of endodermal heterotopic differentiation or entrapment of foregut epithelial rests in the submandibular gland, it is classified as a cystic choristoma. 相似文献

The development of the granular convoluted duct in the submandibular gland of male rats, 4 to 12 weeks of age, was investigated. During this period, the average weight of the gland increased from 213 to 526 mg, the total DNA and RNA contents doubled, and the protein content tripled. Radioautographs were prepared from Epon embedded sections of the gland of the rats given 3H-thymidine and stained with toluidine blue. The glands of 4-week-old rats consisted mainly of acinar cells (45%), intercalated ductal cells (20%) and striated ductal cells (16%). A few granular convoluted ductal cells were seen in the striated duct close to the intercalated duct. The frequency (and absolute number) of granular convoluted ductal cells increased linearly from 1% (3 × 106) at four weeks to 26% (68 × 106) at eight weeks, while the calculated number of striated ductal cells remained stationary. The absolute number of acinar cells and intercalated ductal cells nearly doubled between four to eight weeks of age. The proliferative activity of all cell types declined with age but between six and ten weeks of age the rate of proliferation of ductal cells was relatively higher than the rate of proliferation of the acinar cells. Morphologically the size and number of granules in the granular convoluted ductal cells increased with age. Based on the above data it is concluded that the granular convoluted ductal cells developed from that segment of the striated ductal cells which is in close proximity with the intercalated ductal cells. The heterogeneity of the granules in the granular convoluted ductal cells observed from six weeks of age might denote the functional diversity of the cells. 相似文献

Perivascular nerves in the rat submandibular salivary gland have been studied using a variety of histochemical procedures coupled with electron microscopy. Two principal nerve types, adrenergic and cholinergic, appear to predominate and are localized principally around arterioles. Venules are rarely innervated. The possibility that a non-adrenergic non-cholinergic nerve population might influence blood flow is discussed critically in the light of anatomical and physiological findings. 相似文献

Autologous SMG fragments were implanted in tongues of male rats which were sacrificed 15–20 min, 24 hr, 72 hr, 1 week, or 8 weeks after implantation. The tongues were excised, fixed, and processed for light and electron microscopy. In addition, some rats were injected with [3H]-thymidine 1 hr before sacrifice and the labeling indices (L.I.) of the salivary epithelial and interstitial cells were calculated. Twenty-four hours after implantation, SMG autografts showed massive central necrosis with some acini and ducts surviving at the periphery of the lobules. There was marked infiltration of the autografts with neutrophils and macrophages. Also the basal laminae surrounding the necrotic acini and ducts remained intact. The morphology of the autografts after 72 hr was similar to that after 24 hr except that there was additional necrosis and acini and ducts could no longer be identified in the autografts. By 1 week after implantation, the autografts showed lobular morphogenesis, ductal branching, and revascularization. At this time, the regenerating salivary epithelium appeared undifferentiated with no evidence of secretory granules. The L.I. of interstitial and ductlike structures showed significant increases over control values at 1 week after implantation, and then declined toward control levels by 3 weeks after implantation. By 8 weeks after implantation, there was evidence of acinar and striated ductal cytodifferentiation in two autografts. The results emphasize the potential of SMG autografts to regenerate subsequent to severe tissue necrosis. 相似文献

X-ray microanalysis of resting and stimulated rat pancreas 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The elemental distribution in acinar cells of rat pancreas was investigated by X-ray microanalysis of thin, freeze-dried cryosections. In the resting cell, the highest calcium concentrations were found in the basal part of the cell (including the endoplasmic reticulum) and in the zymogen granules. Mitochondrial calcium concentrations were low. Zymogen granules were rich in sulphur, but low in phosphorus, sodium and potassium. Stimulation of the pancreas by perfusion in vivo with the cholinergic agonist carbachol caused a significant decrease of the calcium concentration in the basal part of the cell and an increase in the calcium concentration in the apical part of the cell. The mitochondrial calcium concentration was not significantly altered. In addition, increased sodium and decreased potassium concentrations, giving rise to a significant increase in Na/K ratio were observed in all cell compartments measured, except in the zymogen granules. 相似文献

Parasympathetic vasodilatation in the rat submandibular gland is mediated by nitric oxide-dependent and -independent mechanisms (prostacyclin and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF)). The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of gender on the relative contributions of each pathway to nerve-stimulated vasodilatation. Absolute increases in perfusion (laser Doppler flowmetry) were similar in male and female rats (in arbitrary perfusion units: 6159+/-4530 and 5601+/-3877 at 2 Hz; 15645+/-6830 and 14848+/-6118 at 5 Hz; and 22418+/-7660 and 18878+/-5864 at 10 Hz). However, expressed as a percentage increase above resting values, stimulated perfusion was higher in males than in females (P<0.05). In males both Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) and indomethacin partly blocked parasympathetic vasodilatation at all frequencies tested (P<0.05). In female rats significant reductions in nerve-stimulated perfusion were observed only at 2 and 5 Hz, but the effects of L-NAME were greater than in males (-64 compared with -45% at 2 Hz and -45 compared with -33% at 5 Hz, P<0.05). Indomethacin by itself had no apparent effect in females. The combined effects of L-NAME and indomethacin were dependent on the order of administration and on gender. Following L-NAME, indomethacin had no further effect in males or females. L-NAME reduced indomethacin-resistant vasodilatation in males and females, but the added effect of indomethacin was more pronounced in males. Finally, atropine-resistant vasodilatation was partly blocked by L-NAME, and the remaining vasodilatation was abolished by spantide I (substance P receptor antagonist). We conclude that NO, products of cyclo-oxygenase activity and EDHF all play a role in parasympathetic vasodilatation, but that NO and EDHF are the major endothelium-derived vasodilators in the rat submandibular gland. In addition, when other pathways are blocked EDHF makes a greater contribution in females. Lastly, both vasoactive intestinal peptide and substance P contribute to the atropine-resistant vasodilatation. 相似文献

Summary Single-dose cervical irradiation by cobalt 60 in rats induced lasting functional disturbances of the submandibular gland which were excessive when compaired with the relative integrity of the gland as seen under the light microscope. Enzyme histochemical and ultrastructural studies revealed severe damage shortly after exposure with appearance of karyolytic bodies and autophagosomes accompanied by increased hydrolase activity. Mitochondrial alterations were concomitant with diminished ductal oxidative enzyme activity. Although most of these alterations resolved rapidly as a result of acinar and ductal cell repair and regeneration originating in the intercalated ducts, secretory abnormalities were still observed two months after exposure as evidenced by the accumulation of granules in acinar cells and the heterogeneity of ductal cell granules. These anomalies, comparable to those observed in sialadenoses, probably result from persistent alterations of intralobular nerve endings.The authors wish to thank M.F. Baucher, A. Lesot and M.

After burns of resection of the submandibular salivary gland the intact contralateral gland in rats responds by increased proliferative activity. The number of mitoses reached a maximum 72 h after injury in the case of burns and 48 h after resection. Burns of the salivary gland cause lasting but weak compensatory hypertrophy of the contralateral gland. Hypertrophy of the gland is accompanied by an increase in size of the cells and nuclei, the area of which rises by 10 and 17% respectively. Resection of the salivary gland causes an increase in weight of the intact gland only in the early period of observation; by the 30th and 45th days after the operation the weight of the experimental glands was not significantly different from the control. Differences in compensatory growth of the intact glands observed after two types of injury of the contralateral gland evidently depend on the quantity of tissue breakdown products and the duration of their presence in the body.Department of Biology and General Genetics, Moscow Medical Stomatological Institute.

Oxygen consumption of slices of rat submandibular gland was monitored with an oxygen electrode method. Carbachol stimulated an immediate increase in tissue respiration that was inhibitable by ouabain. The stimulation required the presence of calcium in the incubation medium and was blocked by atropine. The calcium ionophore A23187 also stimulated ouabain-sensitive oxygen consumption in the tissue slices. The results show that the mechanism using the extra energy during cholinergic stimulation is the sodium pump. Amiloride at a 1, 10, or 100 microM concentration had no effect on stimulation of ouabain-sensitive respiration by carbachol. Since amiloride, which is known to block the sodium reabsorption process in the ductal segment, has no effect on the stimulation, the increased sodium pump activity is probably located in the acinar region and is associated with the primary fluid secretion process. 相似文献

We report a case of a 57-year-old man who developed a fibrosclerosing lesion in the submandibular gland and idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (IRF) involving the unilateral periureteral region within a year. Both lesions were resected surgically because of the suspicion of neoplasm. Pathologic examination revealed similar histologic and immunohistochemical features for both lesions, namely, fibrosclerosis with prominent hyalinizing collagen bundles and proliferation of myofibroblastic cells, and a non-neoplastic reactive nature. There was infiltration by lymphocytes with prominent lymph follicles, plasma cells and macrophages. The histologic and immunohistochemical findings suggest that the two lesions were of a similar pathogenesis, which was possibly mediated by macrophages. We think that the present case may be an unusual form of multifocal fibrosclerosis. Although sialolithiasis is thought to be a major pathogenic factor for chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of the submandibular gland, the present case suggests that certain cases might have an etiology similar to IRF. 相似文献

The techniques of cryomicrotomy and X-ray microanalysis were used to quantitatively measure the subcellular distribution of iodine in rat alveolar macrophages following a single administration of the iodine-containing antiarrhythmic drug, amiodarone. When frozen, dried sections were analyzed, small amounts of iodine were found throughout the alveolar macrophages, but the major accumulations were observed in amorphous bodies and dense granules. The highest to lowest accumulation is in the following order: amorphous bodies (90 mmole I/kg dry wt) greater than dense granules (50 mmole I/kg dry wt) greater than nucleus = cytosol (10 mmoles I/kg dry wt). The amorphous bodies can contain high and low levels of iodine and the granules are found to have high and low levels of iron. Granules with the high and low levels of iron and amorphous bodies with the high and low levels of iodine can be found in the same cells. X-ray microanalysis proved useful in describing the intracellular distribution of iodine-labeled species following amiodarone administration. 相似文献
