Previous studies demonstrated that the main excretory duct (MED) of the rat submandibular gland can internalize exogenous protein in addition to reabsorbing and secreting electrolytes. However, more precise studies have not been conducted. The aim of this study was to elucidate the cell types respon

Background: Tuft cells, which are characterized by long microvilli with prominent rootlets and by vesicular and tubular profiles, are present in the mucosal epithelium of a number of hollow organs, including the main excretory duct of the rat submandibular gland. Despite their widespread occurrence,
Tuft cells, a widespread cell type that is present in the mucosal epithelia of hollow organs, including the main excretory duct (MED) epithelia of the rat salivary gland, are well documented morphologically. However, studies of their development are few. The purpose of the present study was to exami
## Abstract The adrenergic innervation of the rat submandibular and parotid glands was investigated by monitoring the uptake of H^3^βNE by nerve terminals with electron microscopic autoradiographic techniques. Both glands contained nerve bundles in the stroma encompassed by a Schwann cell sheath. S
## Abstract The study of anatomical structures in their normal state allows the identification of pathological changes that can occur in them. Angiogenesis and the vasculature have been widely studied, mainly because of their association with the development of neoplasms. One of the methods applied
