Obstructive sialadenitis is one of common disease in salivary gland, and most common histologic features are loss of acinar cell and ductal dilatation associated with fibrosis, and infiltration of inflammatory cells. Although many experimental studies has been accomplished for the salivary acinar cell change in obstructive salivary gland disease, studies for myoepithelial cell were deficient. This study is designed for salivary gland tissue change, especially myoepithelial cell when nonspecific chronic sialadenitis or salivary duct injury by duct obstruction or cut can be occurred that is common encounted clinically. After ligation and cutting of submandibular gland of rabbit, groups of aminmal were sacrificed at 1, 2, 4 weeks postoperatively, submandibular gland were removed. The histopathologic evaluation was done with light microscopy. And, with immunohistochemical staining with ${\alpha}$-smooth muscle actin, characteristics of myoepithelial cell were examined. With transmission electron microscopy, ultrastructure of myoepithelial cell were examined for distribution and ultrastructure of myoepithelial cell. The results were obtained as follows: 1. In the histopathologic evaluation, ligation and cutting group of 1 week, linkage of myoepithelial cell associated with acinar atrophy and degeneration were disappeared in both group. 2. More prominent squamous metaplasia was seen in acinar cells of ligation group of 2 weeks experimental rabbit than cutting group. 3. Acinar cells are nearly disappeared in both ligation and cutting group of 4 weeks, and myoepithelial cell also disappeared associated with acinar cell atrophy, and duct-like structure composed by squamous cells by squamous metaplasia in acinar cells were distributed. 4. In immunohistochemical study, both ligation and cutting group ${\alpha}$-SMA distribution were diminished at 1 week experimental rabbits, but myoepithelial cell was more diminished in ligation group than cutting group, which were distributed around cells of squamous metaplasia. 5. Nuclear condensation, chromosome margination, and cytoplasmic vaculoation were appeared in myoepithelial cell of both cutting and ligation group after 1 week with transmission electron microscopy. But degenerative substance were seen in cytoplasm of myoepithelial cell of ligation group of 4 weeks. From the results obtained in this study, atrophy and degeneration of myoepithelial cell was more prominent in duct ligation group than duct cutting group, and myoepithelial cells were seen around cells squamous metaplasia of acinar cell.

To investigate morphological changes in the exocrine pancreas of chicken after pancreatic duct ligation, experimental animals were subdivided to control, 12 hours, 1 day, 2 days, 4 days, 7 days and 10 days groupes and all of three pancreatic ducts of chicken were ligated by surgical procedure and then the morphological changes were observed. In pancreatic ducts, once for a while the ducts were dilated on 12 hours after pancreatic duct ligation and then they were obstructed because of proliferated epithelial cells and connective tissues in pancreatic duct. Marginal dissociation of acini was detected in 12 hours after pancreatic duct ligation and then dissociation of acini was increased with time and finally in 4 days after pancreatic duct ligation the acini showed completely dissociation except periductular regions and around pancreatic islets. Most of dissociated acini cells showed marginal condensation of nuclear chromatin and atropy of cytoplasm, namely, apoptotic features were detected in dissociated acinar cells. Interacinar spaces of dissociated acinar regions were dilated and fulfilled with increased connective tissue and in 4 days after pancreatic duct ligation, deposition of lymphocytes and hemocytes was occurred.

The author observed the effects of retrograde infusion of water soluble contrast media (Tele- brix 30) on the rabbit submandibular glands and compared the effects of different degrees of filling. 26 rabbits were divided into 2 groups of 12 each as experimentals and I group of 2 as normal controls. One experimental group was filled with 0.2㎖ and the other with 0.4㎖. Right submandibular gland of each rabbit was infused with contrast media and left one with physiologic saline as a experimental control, at a constant rate of 0.12㎖/min. using an infusion pump via the main excretory duct. Immediately after the infusion of contrast media, oblique lateral radiographs of the glands were made with occlusal film in order to confirm the glandular filling. The rabbits were sacrificed after varying periods (1, 8, 24 hours and 3, 6, 10 days) and the tissues were prepared for light and electron microscopic examination. The results were as follows: 1. In glands filled with 0.2㎖ contrast media, the initial changes were a few vacuole formation in the acini and slight dilation of the intralobular duct. The moderately severe changes such as vacuole formation in the acini, the abnormal substructure within the secretory granule, dilation of acinar and intercalated duct lumen, scalloping of striated duct lumen and inflammatory cell infiltrate were observed at 3 days. The general appearance was successively recovered, so the tissue had a normal appearance at 10 days. 2. In glands filled with 0.4㎖ contrast media, the most prominent alterations such as severe acinar atrophy, decreased number of secretory granules, proliferation of connective tissue stroma and pronounced inflammatory cell infiltrates appeared at 6 days. Although the general appearance returned to be almost normal at 10 days, acinar cells showed some atrophy and decreased secretory granules. 3. In glands subjected to 0.4㎖ infusion, the alterations were more severe and the recovery was slower than those seen in the glands to 0.2㎖ infusion.

Purpose : To observe the histopathological changes and caspase-3 expression in the submandibular gland in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats after irradiation. Materials and Methods : The male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing approximately 250 gm were divided into four groups: control, diabetes, irradiation, and diabetes-irradiation groups. Diabetes mellitus was induced in the rats by injecting streptozotocin. Rats in the control and irradiation groups were injected with citrate buffer only. After 5days, rats in irradiation and diabetes-irradiation groups were irradiated with a single absorbed dose of 10 Gy to the head and neck region. All the rats were sacrificed at 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after irradiation. The specimen including the submandibular gland were sectioned and observed using histopathological and immunohistochemical methods. Results : In the irradiation group, the condensed nucleus, karyolysis, and degeneration of the acinar cells and atrophy of the duct cells were observed in the early experimental phase. However, the acinar cells were found to be normal at 28 days after irradiation. In the diabetes group, the condensed nucleus, karyolysis, atrophy, and degeneration of the acinar cells were observed in the early experimental phase. However, the acinar cells were found to be normal at 21 days after diabetic state induction. In the diabetes-irradiation group, the ductal epithelial cells were predominant in their glandular tissues at 28 days after irradiation. In all of the experimental groups, the most prominent change of the acinar cells and ductal cells were observed at 14 days after diabetic state induction and irradiation. Conclusion The expression of caspase-3 in the acinar cells and ductal cells of the submandibular gland was weak after irradiation, but that in the acinar cells, ductal cells, and fibrous cells of the submandibular gland was prominent after diabetic state induction.

현대인들에게는 다양한 증상과 징후를 나타내는 스트레스성 질환이 증가되고 있는 추세에 있다. 이러한 스트레스 시에 구강 내에는 구강건조이나 구강작열감증후군, 구강점막질환, 구취 등이 호발 된다는 것은 이미 널리 알려진 사실이다. 이때 대부분의 환자에서 공통적으로 나타나는 현상은 타액선의 기능적 및 구조적 변화에 따른 타액성분의 변화이다. 이에 저자는 스트레스가 구강 내 타액선에 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 타액선으로부터 분비되는 ${\alpha}$-amylase에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보고자 본 실험을 시행한 결과 다음과 같은 유의성 있는 결과를 얻었다. 1. 구속 스트레스에 의하여 타액선 조직은 선포세포가 공포화되며 변성되었고, 선포간극이 이개되었으며, 도관주위조직도 변성되었다. 2. 구속 3시간 후에는 선포세포가 위축되기 시작하였고, 구속 6시간 후에는 선포 간 이개현상이 관찰되었으며, 구속 72시간 후에는 도관 주위 조직도 변성되기 시작하였고, 점차 심화되어 구속 168시간 후에는 선포와 도관 주위조직이 모두 심하게 변성되었다. 3. 면역조직화학적 검사에서 구속 3시간 후에는 amylase의 발현이 부분적으로 불규칙하게 관찰되었으며, 구속 6시간 후에는 다소 감소되었고, 구속 12시간 후에는 amylase가 부분적으로 응집되었으며, 점차 감소되고 응집되어, 구속 48시간 후에는 전 타액선에 amylase의 응집현상이 심화되었고, 구속 168시간 후에는 amylase의 발현이 매우 감소되었다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 정서적인 스트레스를 받으면 타액선이 변성될 수 있으며, 타액선으로부터 분비되는 중요한 소화 효소인 amylase가 변화되어 소화 장애를 일으키거나 구강건강과 관계없이 구취발생에도 영향을 미칠 수 있다고 예측할 수 있어, 향후 amylase의 분비변화에 따른 지속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The aim of this study was to establish the diagnostic criteria of normal parotid glands in adults revealing the anatomical shape, its variations and the postitional relationships of the gland. Materials included 96 lateral and anterior-posterior sialograms of selected person from 23 to 28 years of age. Results were as follows: 1. The average length and lateral displacement of main duct was 48.43㎜ and l6.88㎜. The mean lumen diameter of that was 0.91㎜ in distal end and 1.40㎜ in hilar end in parotid glands. 2. The average angle of main duct to the inferior border of mandib was 34.32 degree. In configurations of main duct, modified curvilinear type was. most prevalent and followed by curvilinear, reverse sigmoid, sigmoid type. 3. The mean caliber of parotid gland was the longest in superior-inferior. 4. The interlobar ducts showed relatively well defined in all cases, its average number was 5.72. Arrangement of these ducts showed at random. Accessory lobe showed 87.5% in the all cases, its average number was 1.7. 5. There were no difference between the well and poorly defined acinar fillings in the glandular parenchyme. 6. There were no differences between right and left parotid glands in size and shape of main duct and parenchymal portion, but there were great variations in each individuals.

The ultrastructure of the secretory granules of the submandibular gland was examined in the Korean spider shrew, Sorex caecutiens, lesser white-toothed shrew, Crocidura suaveolens and big white-toothed shrew, C. lasiura. The mucous and serous acinar granules of S. caecutiens with a border of the lucid corona differed from those of C. suaveolens and C. lasiurar with a dense lateral border. The mucous acinar granules of C. lasiura with several bands producing a variety of patterns in the matrix were similar to those of C. suaveolens. The serous acinar granules of C. lasiura had a homogenous pale center surrounded by minute dense specks or had an unusual substructure showing a geometric pattern according to the inclusions in the pale matrix of the granules. This is the first report of an unusual substructure showing a geometric pattern of the serous acinar granules of C. lasiura. The myelin-like body was observed in the granular duct cell of the three species of shrew. The myelin-like body of S. caecutiens with layers of unit membranes was different from that of C. suaveolens and C. lasiura with paired membranes. Therefore, the layers composing of the paired membranes of the myelin-like body might be one of the characteristics of Crocidura.

악하선의 미세구조를 작은땃쥐 Crocidura suaveolens에서 연구하였다. 작은땃쥐의 악하선은 장액선세포와 점액선세포로 구성된 혼합샘이었다. 이 샘포에서 분비된 과립들은 도관을 거쳐 구강으로 분비되었다. 장액선세포와 점액선세포는 잘 발달된 조면소포체와 미토콘드리아 그리고 많은 분비과립을 가지고 있었다. 장액선 분비과립의 경우, 미성숙 분비과립은 무형이면서 전자밀도가 있는 작은 알갱이로만 구성되었고, 성숙 과립은 단일막으로 싸여진 완전한 원형으로 전자밀도가 있는 균질의 중앙부와 전자밀도가 있는 작은 알갱이로 구성된 주변부를 가지고 있었다. 점액선 분비과립의 경우, 미성숙 과립은 원형으로 균질한 기질과 불명확한 경계막을 가지는 반면, 성숙 과립은 균질한 기질 내에 몇 개의 전자밀도가 있는 띠를 가짐으로서 문양의 다양성 가지는 매끈한 원형이었고 명확한 경계막을 가지고 있었다. 즉 작은 땃쥐의 성숙 점액선 분비과립은 문양의 다양성을 가져 다른 포유류와 구분될 뿐만 아니라 매끈한 원형이어서 C. lasiura의 그것과도 구분되었다. 거대한 분비 과립과 미엘린소체가 과립관세포의 세포질과 내강에서 관찰되었다. 3종의 땃쥐류 침샘의 과립관에서 만 보고된 특징적 구조물인 미엘린소체는 분비세포에서 내강으로 분비되었으며 분비과립의 배출방식과 약간의 차이점을 가졌다.
