Influence of salivary glands extirpation on procreation in rats.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of extirpation of the submandibular and sublingual, parotid and all major salivary glands on pregnancy of rats was studied. The statistic analysis of the results indicated that there are statistically significant differences in the number of offsprings between before and after extirpation of the salivary glands. The parotidectomized female rats presented the smallest number of offsprings as compared with other groups and presented some progressive sterility after the gland extirpation.

Radioprotective effect of thymol against salivary glands dysfunction induced by ionizing radiation in rats
The aim of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effect of thymol as a natural product against salivary glands dysfunction induced by ionizing radiation in rats. The rats were treated with thymol at dose of 50 mg/Kg before exposure to radiation at dose 15Gy. Salivary gland function was evaluated with radioisotope scintigraphy and then salivary gland to background counts ratio was ca...

Introduction: According to studies, high intake of fruits and vegetables are associated with reduced cancer incidence and mortality. The high levels of antioxidants in fruits and vegetables are believed to contribute in cancer prevention, possibly by inhibiting oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the effects of cigarette smoke, alcohol and vitamin E and vitamin C on oral mucosa an...
متن کاملChorda tympani transection and selective desalivation differentially disrupt two-lever salt discrimination performance in rats.
Water-restricted rats were trained to press 1 of 2 levers if a sampled stimulus was NaCl and the other lever if the stimulus was KCl (0.05, 0.1, or 0.2 M). Responses were reinforced with water. After training, the average rate of correct responses was 90%. Performance was unchanged following sham surgery. Chorda tympani (CT) transection reduced average discrimination performance to 67.7% correc...
متن کاملQuantification of Partial Volume Effects in Salivary Glands SPECT Images after Radiation Therapy of Head and Neck Tumors
Introduction: Radical radiation therapy of head and neck cancers may injure the salivary glands and reduce their function. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images maybe used to evaluate function post-therapy. However, accurate quantification is hindered by the partial volume effects (PVEs). The present study involved the introduction of a PVEs quantif...
