Comparison of Ecto-Nucleotidase Activity in PAR-C5 Cells and Native Rat Parotid Gland
Cells from a parotid gland acinar cell line (PAR-C5) cells were investigated to compare the activity of the ecto-nucleotidase enzyme in those cells to those of native parotid gland acinar cells. The object of this study was to determine how useful the PAR-C5 cells are as a model for salivary gland …

The effects of ageing and streptozotocin (STZ) - induced diabetes mellitus on the rodent parotid gland
… leads to marked alterations in oral health. The parotid glands play major roles in maintaining salivary secretions to assist in the lubrication and protection of the oral cavity and in digestion. This study investigated the effects of ageing and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes on the …

The Effects of 5-Fluorouracil on The Secretory Process of The Rat Parotid Gland (Protein)
… amylase and protein content of cannulated parotid saliva were determined following stimulation with either 5 mg/kg pilocarpine or 5 mg/kg isoproterenol in experimental, pair-fed, and control animals. Saliva from experimental animals was significantly lower in volume, amylase and protein …

A STUDY OF THE ENZYME A-AMYLASE OF THE PAROTID GLAND AND THE CHANGES OF ITS VALUES DURING ACUTE INFLAMMATION OF THE PANCREAS (ACUTE PANCREATITIS). THE RESULTSWERE COMPARED WITH THOSE OF PREVIOUS STUDIES AND THE CORRELATION OF SECRETORY ACTIVITY THAT EXISTS BETWEEN THE PAROTID GLAND AND THE PANCREAS …

Improving Quantitative Treatment Response Monitoring With Deformable Image Registration
… image registration algorithm, pre-RT tumor and parotid gland volumes can be more accurately mapped to serial functional images. To test the hypothesis, specific aim 1 was designed to analyze whether deformably mapping tumor volumes rather than aligning to bony structures leads to superior tumor …

The Effect of Feeding, Bilateral Parotidectomy, and Pilocarpine Treatment on Parotid Hormone Secretion in the Pig
<p>The effect of feeding, bilateral parotidectomy, pilocarpine treatment, visual and olfactory, and masticatory stimuli on parotid hormone (PH) secretion is reported. Feeding a regular chow was shown to be a potent stimulus for PH secretion. The parotid endocrine system is highly sensitive to the …

The Parotid Salivary Glands. I. Potential Role of a Parotid Factor Modulating Pancreatic β-Cell Function. II. An Immunohistological Study to Identify Parotid Hormone Secreting Cell(s)
<p>The physiologic role of the parotid glands is more complex than its recognized salivary function. Various investigators have suggested an intriguing relationship between the parotids and the pancreas, both endocrine and exocrine in nature.</p> <p>We studied in rats the contribution of salivary …

Lymph node metastasis in auricular squamous cell carcinoma
… draining the auricle lie in the superficial parotid gland, post-auricular/ mastoid nodal group and level II of the neck. There are anastamotic pathways around the mastoid and post-auricular nodes that could permit embolic tumour cells to bypass them. Five lymphatic pathways draining the …

Influence of magnesium on salivary gland secretion: physiological and pathophysiological studies
… and the parietal cells. Since the salivary glands acinar cells have a similar structure and function as the exocrine pancreas, the stomach and the lachrymal gland, it was decided to investigate specifically the effect of perturbation of extracellular magnesium ([Mg2+]0) on both basal and …

Ergebnisse von Feinnadelpunktionszytologie, klinischer Beurteilung und endgültigem histopathologischem Befund im Vergleich bei Parotistumoren
In einer retrospektiven Studie in der HNO-Klinik Würzburg wurden im Zeitraum von Januar 1997 bis Dezember 2001 394 Patienten, die an der Gl. parotis operiert wurden, untersucht. Die untersuchten Parameter waren die Ergebnisse der klinischen Beurteilung, der Fazialisuntersuchung und der …

Molecular Cloning of the cDNA for Porcine Parotid Hormone
<p>It has been found that parotid glands secrete a factor into blood that stimulates dentinal fluid movement, which in turn, prevents the development of dental caries. This factor, designated as parotid hormone, has been isolated from porcine parotid glands and its partial amino acid sequence has …
