According to the current study, a significant difference in expression of TGF-[alpha] between submandibular and
sublingual salivary glands of rats of group A2 which were sacrificed at the age of 9 weeks was found.
At this point, the
sublingual salivary gland was recognized and appeared normal.
In the study presented here, we employed leptin in conjunction with a well-known nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent and cyclooxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin, to examine the functional consequences of alteration in proinflammatory lipids generation by mucin-producing acinar cells of
sublingual salivary gland in response to P gingivalis LPS-induced cPL[A.sub.2] activation.
Sublingual salivary gland is the smallest of the major salivary glands and lie beneath the oral mucous membrane in the anterior part of floor of mouth under the tongue.
Sialocele in dogs associated with trauma of

Histological structure of the parotid and submandibular salivary glands has often been studied in detail, but the
sublingual salivary glands have not been given enough attention.
The area occupied by mucous and serous acinar cells in the submandibular and
sublingual salivary glands is shown on Table 3.
In this study, the effect of T3 was determined in postnatal submandibular and
sublingual salivary glands. This can also be investigated in regards to parotid gland development.
