โœฆ Synopsis

The histological organization and cytology of the submandibular glands of male and female Mongolian gerbils were described. A sexual dimorphism in the glands, limited specifically to the serous tubules, was noted. In the male, gonadectomy, propylthiouracil administration and a combination of the two treatments resulted in significantly reduced serous tubule diameters. Such reduction was accompanied by a decrease in the number of cells per tubule without any change in the height of individual serous cells. In the female similar treatments were without effect on these parameters of the serous tubules. Experimental treatments did not affect the cytology or the periodic acid-Schiff and Alcian blue reactions of the submandibular glands in either sex.

Phenobarbitone at a concentration of 500 rag/1 in drinking fluid of gerbils during pregnancy (60 mg/kg) and lactation (136 mg/kg) markedly reduced the proportion of animals bearing litters, decreased pup weights at birth and during later life and delayed development of the selfrighting reflex, audit
