The salivary gland consists of major and minor glands. The major glands are parotid, submandibular and sublingual glands. The numerous minor salivary glands are located in the mucosa of the upper aerodigestive tracts. Tumors of the salivary gland are relatively uncommon, and the incidence of the salivary gland tumor among the head and neck neoplasm is approximately 3%. Surgery is the primary treatment of choice for the most tumors of the salivary glands. Author reviewed the recent reports of salivary gland neoplasms of Korea and foreign institutes and suggest the guideline of managemnt of salivary gland tumors.

Purpose : To investigate the caspase-3 expression in the acinar and ductal cells of rat submandibular glands after the irradiation of various doses. Materials and Methods : The male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing approximately 250 gm were used for this study. The experimental group was irradiated with a single absorbed dose of 2, 5, 10, and 15 Gy on the head and neck region. The rats were sacrificed on the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21 st, and 28th day after irradiation. The specimens including the submandibular gland were sectioned and observed using histopathological and immunohistochemical methods. Results : The local destruction of the acinar and ductal cells and the karyopyknotic nuclei of the acinar cells were observed in the 2 Gy and 5 Gy irradiation groups later than in the 10 Gy and 15 Gy irradiation groups. And the expression of caspase-3 was prominent only in the ductal cells in the 2 Gy and 5 Gy irradiation groups. Conclusion : This experiment suggests that radiation-induced apoptosis in the ductal cells of rat submandibular glands was induced by a low dose radiation associated with the activation of caspase-3 and radiation-induced necrosis was induced by a high dose radiation.

The present study was undertaken to explore the role of autonomic nerves in the regulation of sodium transporters and water channels in the salivary gland. Rats were denervated of their sympathetic or parasympathetic nerves to the submandibular gland. One week later, the expression of Na,K-ATPase, epithelial sodium channels (ENaC), and aquaporins (AQP) was examined in the denervated and contralateral glands. The sympathetic denervation slightly but significantly decreased the expression of ${\alpha}1$ subunit of Na,K-ATPase, whereas the parasympathetic denervation increased it. The expression of ${\alpha}$-subunit of ENaC was significantly increased in both the denervated and contralateral glands either by the sympathetic or parasympathetic denervation. The sympathetic denervation significantly increased the expression of AQP5 in both the denervated and contralateral glands, whereas the parasympathetic denervation decreased it. It is suggested that the autonomic nerves have a tonic effect on the regulation of sodium transporters and AQP water channels in the salivary gland.

50 submandibular glands of rabbits were examined historadiologically after infusion with normal and over volumes of physiologic saline and 5 radiographic contrast media. The results were as follows: 1. All water soluble contrast media showed similar radiographic contrasts and absorbed about 5 minutes after infusion except Telebrix 30 which took 30 minutes in both normal and overfilled glands. 2. Lipid soluble medium, Lipiodol UF had excellent radiographic contrast and could be seen on the radiograms even after 24 hours after infusion. 3. Salivary glands infused with physiologic saline didn't show any histologic changes except slight duct dilation right after infusion. 4. Telebrix 30 caused mild to moderate duct dilation and inflammation at immediate & 24 hours after infusion which was more severe in overfilled glands. At 7 days after infusion, there were mild to moderate fibrosis of the gland and areas of necrosis was seen in overfilled glands. 5. Hypaque 60% showed similar histologic reactions to Telebrix 30 except more severe tissue destruction at 7 days after infusion. 6. Urografin 60% showed mildest histologic changes among the media used in the study. 7. Biliscopin had mild duct dilation which returned to normal after 7 days but there were moderate inflammation and tissue necrosis at that time. 8. Lipiodol UF showed severe duct dilation with numerous vacuoles and there were tissue fibrosis at 7 days after infusion but no tissue necrosis was seen.

본 연구는 출생 후 성장과정에 있는 흰쥐의 턱밑샘과 혀밑샘에서 비만세포와 신경의 분포양상을 알아보고 이들이 침샘의 성장 및 분화에 관여하는지를 규명하고자 수행되었다. 비만세포는 출생 후 턱밑샘과 혀밑샘에서 모두 관찰되었으며 성장에 따라서 증가되는 양상을 보였으나 8주 이후에는 세포밀도가 변화하지 않았다. 출생시 턱밑샘보다는 혀밑샘에서 더 많은 수의 비만세포가 존재하였고 2주와 4주에서는 대부분의 비만세포가 신경혈관요소의 주변 결합조직에서 분포하였으나 일부는 선포와 근접하여 분포하고 있었다. Protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5)에 면역 반응을 보이는 신경섬유들은 출생 후 모든 시기의 선조직에서 관찰되었으며, 꾸불꾸불한 형태로써 주로 도관과 혈관 주변에 분포하고 있었다. 면역 반응을 나타내는 신경섬유는 출생 후부터 8주까지는 급격히 증가하였으나 그 이후에는 거의 변화가 없었다. 2주에 신경섬유는 선포주변에서 급격히 증가하였으나 4주와 8주에는 분화하는 도관주변에서 특히 증가하였다. 이후부터 24주까지는 도관주변에 신경섬유가 감소하는 것 이외에는 변화가 거의 없었다. 본 연구결과 출생 후 성장기의 흰쥐의 턱밑샘과 혀밑샘에서 비만세포의 분포변화와 PGP 9.5에 면역반응을 나타내는 신경섬유가 처음으로 확인되었으며, 비만세포와 신경섬유는 선포의 분화 및 성숙, 그리고 도관구조의 분화와 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 비만세포와 신경은 출생 후성장기의 턱밑샘과 혀밑샘에서 상호작용을 통하여 서로의 분화를 유도하고 촉진시킴으로서 선포와 도관의 성장과 분화에 영향을 줄 것으로 사료된다.Streptomyces exfoliatus에서 생성되는 배양 상청액내의 mutanase 가 인공치태 형성에 억제 작용이 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.구에 사용될 수 있는 새로운 연구 방법을 제시한 점에 있다. 결 론: 본 실험 결과 전신방사선조사시, 조직등가 고체팬텀과 산란판 사이의 간격이 $50{\sim}60cm$일 때 표면선량을 처방선량에 가장 근접하게 조사할 수 있다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 산란판과 환자와의 거리를 $50{\sim}60cm$에 위치시켜 표면선량의 over dose나 under dose의 발생 방지를 위한 주의가 반드시 필요하겠다.군의 전단결합강도가 가장 낮았다.본에서 III군에 비해 크기가 큰 기포가 더욱 많이 관찰되었다.e의 약동학은 cimetidine에 의해 유의한 차이를 보였으며 CYP1A2유전자형에 따른 영향은 관찰할 수 없었다. CYP1A2유전자형에 따른 생체내 대사능을 관찰하는 실험이 향후 이루어 져야 할 것으로 사료된다.san film보다 큰 수증기 투과도를 보였다.적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다.y tissue layer thinning은 3 군모두에서 관찰되었고 항암 3 일군이 가장 심하게 나타났다. 이상의 실험결과를 보면 술전 항암제투여가 초기에 시행한 경우에는 조직의 치유에 초기 5 일정도까지는 영향을 미치나 7 일이 지나면 정상범주로 회복함을 알수 있었고 실험결과 항암제 투여후 3 일째 피판 형성한 군에서 피판치유가 늦어진 것으로 관찰되어 인체에서 항암 투여후 수술시기는 인체면역계가 회복하는 시기를 3주이상 경과후 적어도 4주째

The ultrastructures of the secretory acinar granules of submandibular and parotid salivary gland were examined in the Korean striped field mouse, Apodemus agraius. The acini of the submandibular salivary gland had serous and mucous acinar cells filled with numerous secretory granules. The serous acinar granules had uniformly fine dense contents and were round typed with a definite boundary between the granules. The mucous acinar granules were relatively coarse, with moderate density, and clustered together as a result of the indistinct boundaries between the granules. The acini of the parotid salivary glands contained only serous cells filled with numerous round-typed serous acinar granules. Serous acinar granules had uniformed dense matrix and definite boundaries. The ultrastructures without substructure in a matrix of serous and mucous acinar granules in the submandibular and parotid salivary glands of A. agraius were similar to those of species of Rodentia but different from those of Soricidae in Korea with a characteristic substructure in a matrix. This ultrastructure and charateristics in secretory acinar granules provide fundamental data for molecular comparisions of genetic relationships and are one of the key methods for classifying A. agraius.

Cytochrome P45O is an oxidase involved in oxidation of alcohol and is known to be an activator of carcinogen. The present study was performed to study the effect of alcohol and cold stress on the expression of Cytochrome P450 IIEl (CYPIIE1) In the liver and salivary glands in rats by an immunoblot analysis. Sixteen rats were divided into 4 groups; 1)rats belonging to group I were allowed to take 15%(v/v) ethyl alcohol as a drink ad libitum: 2)rats of group II were bathed in cold water for 30 sec twice a day (during the one-week experiment); 3)rats comprising group III were received alcohol and cold stress as described above; 4)rats of group IV were selected as a control. The rat were sacrificed at the end of the one-week experiment. The livers and parotid and submandibular salivary glands were removed and stored at -2$0^{\circ}C$ until use. The stored organs were homogenized for 10 sec and the supernatants were obtained by centrifugation. The proteins of the supernatants were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and subjected to Western blotting. The blotted membranes were incubated with polyclonal antibodies to CYPIIEI . The obtained results were as follows : 1. The expression of CYPIIEl was apparently negative in the liver and salivary glands of group IV, wheras its expression was marked in the experiment groups I, II. and III. 2. No difference in the expression of CYPIIEl in the liver and salivary glands was observed between the experiment groups I, II, and III. 3. Among the experiment groups, the expression of CYPIIE1 in the liver was much greater than in the salivary glands. The expression of CYPIIE1 in the submandibular gland was weakly positive but was greater than in the carotid gland.

Purpose: Chronic nicotine administration induce various effects in whole organs of the body; however, little is known about salivary gland. In the present study, we pursued the links between systemic nicotine and the histomorphological changes of the salivary gland in mice. Methods: Twenty-five C57BL6 mice were allocated into two groups. The control group (n=9) received distilled water only for 8 weeks by gavage. The experimental nicotine group (n=16) was administered nicotine $5{\mu}g/g$ with distilled water. Animals were sacrificed at 8 weeks; then, submandibular glands were excised and processed for histologic evaluation. Volumetric changes in acinar cells were evaluated by H&E staining. The expression of calponin-positive myoepithelial cells and Ki-67-positive proliferating acinar cells were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Results: The nicotine group showed significantly decreased number of calponin-positive myoepithelial cell process compared with the control group. There were no significant differences in average volume of acinar cell and the number of Ki-67-positive acinar cells between both groups. Conclusions: These findings suggested that chronic nicotine administration may cause decreased function of myoepithelial cells in submandibular glands of mice, and these can partly explain xerostomic conditions in chronic smokers.

A 15 months old male pit bull terrier was shown submandibular swelling, which was extended from left submandibular area through mandibular symphysis to right submandibular area and toward around left neck. In history taking, recurrence of swelling was recorded after conservative surgical incision, drainage and dressing. Palpation revealed no pain and heating, partial flutuation and hardness. By paracentesis, it was showed blood-tinged tenacious exudate without bad-smelling. Left submandibular salivary gland was able to be movable freely and the size decreased to half of that of right submandibular salivary gland. It was diagnosed as cervical salivary mucocele. In operation, rostral portion of left sublingual salivary gland was observed to be damaged transversely, showed black color and leaked saliva. Submandibular gland and rostral portion of sublingual salivary gland were resected, after ligation of ducts of submandibular and sublingual salivary glands. At 15 days postoperation, serosanguineous exudate from operation wound was dramatically decreased and stable granulation tissue mass at this area was first palpated. At 39 days after operation, outline of left and right mandibular was appeared normal and skin tenderness of mandibular area was equal to that of the other body wall.
