Salivary gland structure and function in experimental diabetes mellitus

Abstract: While salivary secretion is not initiated by circulat ing hormones, there are significant endocrine influences on the development, structure and function of salivary glands. Experimental animal models of diabetes mellitus have been used to study all aspects of diabetic pathophysiolog)!. There is now a considerable body of evidence demonstrating that the effects of diabetes on rodent salivary glands are related as much to the indirect consequences of insulin insufficiency on the circulating levels of other horm… Show more

“…Some metabolic insults cause disruption of normal lipid transport and metabolism and subsequently cause accumulation of lipid within the cytoplasm. In the streptozotocin-diabetes rat model, the parotid is the major salivary gland most susceptible to cytoplasmic vacuolation ( Anderson 1998 ). Cytoplasmic vacuolation within the parotid was observed in doxylamine treated F344 rats ( Jackson and Blackwell 1988 ).…”

“…Streptozotocin (STZ) was the drug of choice in this study to induce diabetes as it had low mortality rate and high tolerance by the experimental animals than alloxan. Also, it can be given easily by different routes and its diabetogenic action was rapid and permanent as it is known to destroy the beta cells of islets of Langerhans (18) .…”
