Cell phone use and parotid salivary gland alterations: no molecular evidence.
BACKGROUND The association between cell phone use and the development of parotid tumors is controversial. Because there is unequivocal evidence that the microenvironment is important for tumor formation, we investigated in the parotid glands whether cell phone use alters the expression of gene products related to cellular stress. METHODS We used the saliva produced by the parotid glands of 62...
متن کاملAlterations In Salivary Gland Secretion And Contemporary Treatment Alternatives
Saliva is a significant secretion in the preservation of oral cavity, preparation of food for chewing and swallowing, remineralization of teeth, neutralization of oral acid and simplification of speech. Decrease or increase of this secretion can cause various oral and general health problems. While hyposalivation leads to xerostomia, hypersalivation results in sialorrhea. Both of them have to b...
متن کاملStructure and biosynthesis of human salivary mucins.
Human salivary glands secrete two types of mucins: oligomeric mucin (MG1) with molecular mass above 1 MDa and monomeric mucin (MG2) with molecular mass of 200-250 kDa. Monomers of MG1 and MG2 contain heavily O-glycosylated tandem repeats located at the central domain of the molecules. MG1 monomers are linked by disulfide bonds located at sparsely glycosylated N- and C-end. MG1 are synthesized b...
متن کاملImproved quantification of salivary gland scintigraphy by means of factor analysis
Introduction: In this study the automatic separation of oral and salivary gland activity and spontaneous secretion by means of factor analysis for quantitative salivary gland scintigraphy is introduced. Methods: After intravenous administration of 99mTc sodium pertechnetate, dynamic scintigraphy was performed. 20 minutes after tracer application 2 ml of lemon juice was delivered to stimulate t...
