Summary Luminal structures found in salivary pleomorphic adenomas consisted of lumina surrounded by epithelial cells that varied from being packed together to being widely separated except at the luminal margin. Communication between lumina and the surrounding stroma was occasionally seen. Secretory material and cellular debris were seen in lumina, invaginations of the luminal surfaces of periluminal cells, associated vesicles, and vacuoles. Secretory granules, lysosomes and lipofuscin were seen in periluminal cells. Secretory material and debris from necrotic periluminal cells appear to accumulate in lumina, and to be endocytosed and degraded lysosomally by periluminal cells. The finding of communications between lumina and the surrounding stroma suggests that the stromalization of the epithelium includes the luminal structures. The present investigation supports the hypothesis that many of the cellular features of the pleomorphic adenoma relate to the microenvironment. 相似文献

The structure of chronically inflamed submandibular glands from four patients was examined by electron microscopy. The patients were free of the sicca syndrome and lacked other symptoms of Sj?gren's syndrome or related autoimmune diseases. The affected glands were characterized by a reduction in acinar elements, by ductular proliferation and hyperplasia, and by large numbers of inflammatory cells in the stroma. This study indicates that many of the ultrastructural changes in salivary glands previously attributed to autoimmune diseases may also occur in patients who are free of such afflictions but whose salivary glands have undergone intermittent obstruction or infection. 相似文献

A study of submicroscopic changes in astrocytes after intracerebral injection of the carcinogen 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene suggests that the so-called true period of preglioma begins on the 45th day of the experiment, when astrocytes of a typical ultrastructure begin to appear against the background of degenerative changes. Changes in the submicroscopic organization of the astrocytes during chemical carcinogenesis can be subdivided into three stages: I) intracellular hyperplasia, due to traumatic brain injury; II) degenerative changes, connected with disturbance of the blood supply to the tissue and the direct action of the carcinogen on it; III) atypical ultrastructural reorganization.Department of Pathological Anatomy, Tashkent Medical Institute.

Beta-adrenoceptor changes in submandibular glands of old mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The hypothesis that modifications in beta-adrenergic receptors may be responsible for age-dependent change previously observed in vivo, has been investigated. Beta-adrenoceptor characteristics of submandibular glands of mice were studied by using the beta-adrenergic antagonist (-)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol. Data from such studies indicated the presence of two functional populations of binding sites in membrane preparations from young animals, displaying high and low affinity, respectively. Experiments performed on old mice membrane preparations revealed a 50% decrease in the high-affinity population receptor number when compared to the preparations from young animals. However, the affinity did not change significantly with advancing age. With regard to the low-affinity population, no statistically significant changes were observed. From these data it can be reasonably assumed that beta-adrenoceptor alteration during ageing may play a major role in the age-dependent impairment of beta-adrenergic responses in vivo. 相似文献

Collagen knowledge is relevant to the combination of three technologies: biochemistry, crystallography and ultra-structural studies. Its fibrillar nature has been early recognised by electron microscopy. The author presents the various ultra-structural aspects of collagen according to the various known types. Fibrillar, micro-fibrillar structures are described as well as basement membranes. 相似文献

The submandibular salivary glands of 14 Pitman-Moore miniature pigs were examined to determine whether they exhibit sexual dimorphism. Sections of the glands from seven male and seven female animals were stained by several histochemical methods. No morphological sex differences were noted in hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections but differences were found with all of the histochemical methods utilized. Most noticeable was the higher concentration of sialic acid-containing mucosubstances in mucous acini of the female submandibular gland sections when they were stained with either the Alcian blue (pH 2.5), Alcian blue (pH 2.5)-periodic acid-Schiff or periodic acid-phenyl-hydrazine-Schiff methods. Unlike mucous acini, demilunes of the male submandibular gland possessed a higher concentration of sialic acid-containing mucosubstance than did those of the female. The miniature pig, unlike other animal orders studied, possesses sexual dimorphism at three weeks of age, thus differing markedly from other animals in which sexual dimorphism of the salivary glands does not occur until after the onset of puberty. 相似文献

The parasympathetic nervous system controls submandibular glands (SMG) functions in physiological and pathological conditions via muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAchR). We had previously demonstrated that IFN and carbachol stimulate amylase secretion in normal murine SMG by mAchR activation. While the cytokine action depended on nitric oxide synthase activation, the effect of the agonist was mediated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production. Both IFN and carbachol triggered IFN secretion in SMG. We here show that during local acute inflammation (LAI) induced by intraglandular injection of bacterial endotoxin, lypopolisaccharide (LPS), amylase secretion is decreased in comparison to control glands. We also observed that the muscarinic agonist carbachol stimulates in a dose-dependent manner amylase activity by M2 and M3 mAchR activation. Moreover, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) activation and subsequent PGE2 liberation, in a nitric oxide independent manner, seem to be involved in M3 and M2 receptor activation by carbachol. In contrast, the addition of exogenous IFN or carbachol inhibits the cytokine liberation in LAI glands. 相似文献

Sj?gren's syndrome [SS] is typified by infiltration of mononuclear cells [MNC] into the salivary and lacrimal glands, although the biological role of these infiltrating cells remains unclear. We report here that E-cadherin, which mediates cell-cell adhesion and regulates differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis of epithelial cells, is expressed ectopically by MNC in the salivary glands in the NOD mouse model of SS. Flow cytometric analysis of CD45(+)cells from NOD submandibular glands revealed that over 90% express E-cadherin. More detailed phenotypic analyses demonstrated that E-cadherin expression is high (>90%) among mature T cells (CD3(+)), B cells (CD19(+)), NK cells (DX5(+)), and monocyte/macrophages (CD11b(+)) within the infiltrates. Expression of other surface antigens, such as CD90 and CD117, above expected values suggests the presence of immature leukocytes, possibly of the T cell lineage, within the foci. We also present evidence that E-cadherin-expressing T cells in the glands do not exhibit normal proliferative responses to immobilized anti-CD3 antibody. While infiltrating MNC are not likely to be the direct cause of salivary hypofunction, the expression of E-cadherin by these cells may have implications for the progression of disease. 相似文献

Submandibular and major sublingual salivary glands of the opossum contain histochemically demonstrable neutral mucosubstances, nonsulfated acid mucosubstances and sulfomucins. Sialomucins could not be demonstrated conclusively with the methods used in this study. Special serous cells of the opossum submandibular gland contained low concentrations of acidic mucosubstances but no appreciable concentration of neutral mucosubstances was seen. Sulfomucins were not observed in special serous cells. The mucous tubules of the submandibular gland contained high concentrations of neutral mucosubstances. No appreciable acidic mucosubstance was demonstrated in the submandibular gland mucous tubules. Unlike the mucous tubules of the submandibular gland, the major sublingual gland mucous tubules contained high concentrations of both neutral and acidic mucosubstances. The mucous tubules often contained sulfomucin-positive cells interspersed among cells that contained high concentrations of non-sulfated acidic mucosubstance. Marked staining of sulfated acidic mucosubstance was seen only in the major sublingual gland, in both the mucous tubules and in the seromucous demilunes. The seromucous demilunes contained both sulfated and non-sulfated acidic mucosubstances. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF), an androgen-dependent polypeptide, occurs in high concentration in male mouse submandibular gland. Glands of adult male and female mice of six inbred strains (129/J, C57BL/6J, C58/J, SWR/J, RF/J, A/J) were assayed for EGF by radioimmunoassay. In all strains, the glands of males contained 30 to 500-fold more EGF than those of females. Furthermore, significant differences in EGF content were found among the various strains in both sexes; the highest amount of EGF was present in RF/J and the lowest in C57BL/6J, with a ratio of three in the males and four in the females of the two strains, respectively. Factors that effect EGF levels were analyzed further, using these two strains. EGF was measurable in the glands of mice of both strains at 21 days of age and increased rapidly thereafter, up to 14 weeks of age. Throughout postnatal development, the level of EGF was greater in the glands of RF/J mice than in those of the C57BL/6J animals. Thirty days after castration, the EGF levels were reduced by about 98% in both strains, but the strain difference was not abolished. Testosterone implants (1 mg in Silastic tube) in castrated mice induced EGF levels six- to ten-fold compared to castrates. Even in induced animals, which had similar plasma testosterone levels, as measured by radioimmunoassays, the difference in EGF levels between the two strains was manifest. Such a difference, however, was not seen after the daily administration of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone for 3–14 days. Immunocytochemical staining for EGF also indicated a higher concentration of the polypeptide in the glands of RF/J mice than in those of C57BL/6J animals, and confirmed the exclusive localization of EGF in the cells of the granular convoluted tubules (GCT). According to our morphometric analysis, in the glands of male RF/J mice the GCT compartment occupied a greater portion (8% greater, P<0.001) of the gland volume than in C57BL/6J mice. The difference in the relative GCT volumes in the glands of female mice of the two strains was, however, statistically not significant. There was no direct correlation between the amount of EGF and the relative volume of the GCTs in the two strains. The evidence obtained implies that strain differences in submandibular-gland EGF levels are determined genetically. 相似文献

Summary Lectin binding was studied in the developing submandibular glands of fetal Syrian golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) from gestational day 12 to 16 (the day of birth). The fetuses were fixed, embedded in paraffin, sectioned and stained with nine lectin-horseradish peroxidase conjugates: concanavalin A (Con A), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA), Maclura pomifera agglutinin (MPA), Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin I-B4 (GSA I-B4), peanut agglutinin (PNA), Ulex europens agglutinin I (UEA I) and Limulus polyphemus agglutinin (LPA). The developing glands showed dramatic morphological alterations on a daily basis, accompanied by progressive changes in lectin staining. On day 12 the primitive gland showed only trace lectin staining with WGA, HPA, MPA, PNA and UEA I, but by day 13, strong staining with these lectins, as well as with DBA, was seen at the ductal lumenal surface, after the formation of the ductal lumens. Secretory granules first appeared in cells of the primitive acini on day 14; the secretion products were stained strongly with WGA, DBA, HPA, MPA, PNA and UEA I. On day 15, the secretion products were also stained moderately with GSA I-B4. Secretory differentiation was further developed on day 16, but the staining intensity of the mucins with the different lectins varied among the secretory cells. LPA failed to stain any part of the gland throughout the observation period, and Con A stained only glycogen.This work was supported by National Institutes of Health Grant HL37640. 相似文献

An ultrastructural histochemical study was carried out on submandibular glands of rabbits. Stainings were performed with dialysed iron (DI), high iron diamine (HID), tannic acid uranyl acetate (TA-U), tannic acid-ferric chloride (TA-F) sequence, and periodate-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate (PA-TCH-SP) method. It was demonstrated that neutral glycoproteins are present in the cells with dark granules of the preterminal tracts, and that neutral and acid glycoproteins are present in the cells with light granules of the terminal tracts. Result are discussed and compared to other previously obtained histochemical and biochemical data. 相似文献
