1. Anti-complement activity in salivary glands and midgut of Chagas disease vector, Panstrongylus megistus (Hemiptera, Triatominae)
ABSTRACT The triatomine insect Panstrongylus megistus , one of the most important Chagas disease vectors in Brazil, presents salivary molecules pharmacologically active to counteract homeostatic responses from the host, including inhibitors of the human complement system, a major effector of immune responses. The aim of the present study was to investigate t

2. Differential immunohistochemical expression of type I collagen and matrix metalloproteinase 2 among major salivary glands of young and geriatric mice
Abstract Objective This study aimed to demonstrate the immunohistochemical changes associated with MMP-2 and type 1 collagen separately for the first time in the major salivary glands (the parotid, submaxillary, and sublingual glands) that occur with aging in mice. Material and Methods Fourteen Balb/c white mice (50-80 g) were used in this study. The ani

3. BPI-fold (BPIF) containing/plunc protein expression in human fetal major and minor salivary glands
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine expression, not previously described, of PLUNC (palate, lung, and nasal epithelium clone) (BPI-fold containing) proteins in major and minor salivary glands from very early fetal tissue to the end of the second trimester and thus gain further insight into the function of these proteins. Early fetal heads, and ma

4. Clinicopathological analysis of salivary gland tumors over a 15-year period
Abstract Salivary gland tumors (SGT) are rare neoplasms that generate interest due to their histopathological diversity and clinical behavior. The aims of the present study were to investigate clinicopathological aspects of SGTs diagnosed at a tertiary health center and compare the findings with epidemiological data from different geographic locations. Cases

5. Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Tongue Base: Case Report and Review
Introduction Pleomorphic adenoma, also known as mixed tumor, is the most common benign tumor of the major and minor salivary glands. The occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma of the tongue base is very rare, and very few cases have been reported in the literature. Objective The authors present a rare case of pleomorphic adenoma of the tongue base and a review

6. Acupuncture for the prevention of radiation-induced xerostomia in patients with head and neck cancer
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture in minimizing the severity of radiation-induced xerostomia in patients with head and neck cancer. A total of 24 consecutive patients receiving > 5000 cGy radiotherapy (RT) involving the major salivary glands bilaterally were assigned to either the preventive acupuncture group (PA, n = 12)

7. Evaluation of parotid and submandibular salivary glands through magnetic resonance and clinical-laboratorial correlations in cronic form Chagas disease bearers / Avaliação das glândulas parótidas e submandibulares por ressonância magnética e correlação clínico-laboratorial em pacientes portadores das formas indeterminada e digestiva da doença de Chagas
INTRODUCTION: Chagas disease is the most important endemic parasitosis in Latin America. The salivary glands onsets for this disease have been poorly studied. For MR (magnetic resonance) sialography has a better sensibility and specificity when compared to different methods and for not being invasive, it is used to identify glandular alterations in patients

8. Estudo retrospectivo de 3091 casos de neoplasias epiteliais primarias de glandulas salivares maiores e menores intra-orais / Retrospective study of 3091 cases of primary epithelial salivary gland tumors involving the major and minor glands
The aim of this study was to analyse retrospectively the histological and epidemiological characteristics of 3091 cases of intraoral primary epithelial neoplasms of the minor and major salivary glands. It was included on this study, 1766 cases from Brazil, 544 from the U.S., 405 from Uruguay, 151 from Peru, 134 from Guatemala and 91 from Mexico. Benign tumor

9. Expression of PLUNC family protein in major salivary gland of the autopsied patients with advanced AIDS and without AIDS / Expressão das proteinas da familia PLUNC nas glandulas salivares maiores de pacientes autopsiados com AIDS em fase avançada e sem AIDS
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the expression of PLUNC proteins in major salivary glands (MSG) of AIDS patients with or without infectious conditions and non-HIV patients using post-mortem material. Methods: Sex, age, CD4 cell count, and clinical history were obtained retrospectively from the clinical records of all patients (n=63). We an

10. c-Jun and junB immunoprofile in adenoid cystic carcinoma and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma of salivary glands / Estudo da imunoexpressão das proteínas C-JUN e JUNB em carcinoma adenóide cístico e adenocarcinoma polimorfo de baixo grau de malignidade de glândulas salivares
Adenoid cystic carcinoma and polymorphous low grade are salivary gland neoplasms. ACC can arise in both, major or minor salivary glands. However, Polymorphous lowgrade adenocarcinoma, occurs specifically in minor salivary glands dispersed in the oral cavity. They share many common histologic features, as infiltrating solid, tubular and cribiform patterns and

11. CorrelaÃÃo da expresÃo da proteÃna p53 comaspectos clÃnicos e histopatolÃgicosem adenomas pleomÃrficos de glÃndula salivar maior
Pleomorphic adenomas (PA) are the most common histologic type of salivary gland tumors. Malignant transformation may occur in the setting of recurrent or longstanding disease. Objective: Evaluate the clinicopathologic characteristics and p53 expression of PA of the major salivary glands. Material and Methods: The clinical and histopathologic characteristics

12. Estudo histopatologico, imunoistoquimico e de hibridização ?in situ? das glandulas submandibular e sublingual em pacientes autopsiados com aids em fase avançada / Histopathological, immunohistochemical, and in situ hybridization study of the submandibular and sublingual glands of autopsied patients with advanced AIDS
This study describes the histopathological, immunohistochemical (lHC), and in situ hybridization (ISH) features found in the submandibular (n=103) and sublingual (n=92) glands of autopsied patients who died with AIDS between 1996 and 1999 in the SVOC FMUSP (Medical School of São Paulo University). Sex, age, CD4 cell count, and clinical history were obtained
