Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to give a glimpse of the normal distribution of intermediate filaments within the parotid gland parenchyma of mongrel dogs and to reveal the pathological changes that may occur as a result of the effects of diabetes mellitus or atrophy of the gland caused by the ligation of the excretory duct to discover whether there is a similarity in these pathological behaviors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve healthy mongrel dogs were used in the experiment and were divided into three groups: group I (the control group), group II (dogs with alloxan-induced diabetes), and group III (dogs with the right-side duct-ligated parotid gland). The dogs were sacrificed 45 days after the parotid excretory duct were tied. The right parotid gland of all groups was dissected and prepared for histological and immunohistochemical expression of cytokeratin 17 assay. RESULTS Histological findings confirmed that the parotid gland parenchyma of the diabetic group had glandular atrophy characterized by the loss of gland structure, degenerated acini, and dilatation of the duct system. Moreover, there is a predominance of the fibrous component with the presence of fat cells within the gland compartments. On the contrary, the excretory duct-ligated group undergoes severe glandular atrophy of the previous character with the presence of duct-like structure as well as extravasation and vasodilatation. Immunohistochemical expression of cytokeratin 17 in control parotid using an immunoperoxidase technique showed that cytokeratin expression varies from negative to mild in all ducts and some serous acinar cells. The gland parenchyma of the diabetic group showed mild to strong cytokeratin expression of duct cells more concentrated in the apical part with moderate to strong expression of diffuse type in some serous acini. The intensity of cytokeratin 17 in gland compartments of the excretory duct-ligated group revealed a variation in expression that ranged from negative to strong diffuse staining throughout the gland. CONCLUSION The severity and prevalence of cytokeratin 17 in our results are predictive of the pathological influence of both diabetes mellitus and duct ligation on the cytokeratin intracellular filaments of the salivary gland parenchyma in a different way that interferes with saliva production and/or secretion leading to xerostomia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thoracic duct chylous fistula is a rare complication following neck surgery, especially for malignant disease. Despite its low incidence, it can be a life-threatening postoperative complication increasing the risk of infection, bleeding, hypovolemia, electrolyte imbalance, and malnutrition. Currently, the management of thoracic duct fistula is not standardized yet. It can range from conservative to surgical approaches, and even when surgery indication occurs, there is no unanimous agreement on timing and operative steps, so the surgical approach still remains mostly subjective, in accordance with clinical conditions of the patients and with surgeon's experience. AIMS The aim of the study was to search into Literature a common accepted behaviour in thoracic duct chylous fistula occurring. METHODS A literature review was carried out. Conservative treatments include fasting associated with total parental nutrition or low-fat diet, compressive dressings, and octreotide administration. If conservative treatment fails, in order to avoid dangerous consequences, functional repair of the thoracic duct injury with lymphovenous microanastomosis should be the preferred solution, rather than an approach that obliterates the thoracic duct or lymphatic-chylous pathways, such as thoracic duct embolization, therapeutic lymphangiography, and thoracic duct ligation. CONCLUSIONS In our experience, patients undergone thyroidectomy and neck dissection for thyroid-differentiated cancer, who report an unrecognized thoracic duct chylous fistula after surgery, must be treated via integrated conservative and surgical treatment. A literature review about thoracic duct chylous fistula following neck surgery, focusing on the current management and therapeutic approach, was furthermore carried out, in order to delineate the actual therapeutic options in case of thoracic duct chylous fistula occurrence.

Abstract
The transcription factor p63, a component of the p53 family, has important functions in development, homeostasis, and regeneration of epithelial tissues. However, the role of p63 in the regeneration of exocrine glands, including the salivary glands (SGs), has not been fully investigated. We investigated p63 expression in SG regeneration induced by duct ligation and irradiation. The expression of ΔNp63, a p63 isoform, increased and was colocalized with keratin 5 positive cells were myoepithelial cells. Furthermore, ΔNp63 expression was regulated by FGF7 stimulation via p38 MAPK phosphorylation and affected SG morphogenesis. These results suggest that ΔNp63 is essential for SG regeneration and may be a new target for regenerative treatment.

Abstract
Long-term submandibular duct obstruction is thought to cause irreversible atrophy and dysfunction of the submandibular gland. As an atrophic gland may be induced clinically by chronic or recurrent infection, it is generally removed surgically. However, the regenerative capacity of atrophic submandibular glands after long-term obstruction is not completely understood. We studied the regenerative capacity of the mouse submandibular duct using an aneurysm clip ligation model. We documented changes in the size, histologic structure and gene expression of the submandibular gland after 2 months of ligation, and 1 week, 1 month and 2 months after clip removal. Two months of ligation caused atrophy, particularly in the acinar portion. In the 2 months after clip removal, we observed a steady and significant increase in the expression of the acinar cell precursor gene cytokeratin 5 (CK5), and a significant decrease in the expression of the stem cell marker c-kit. These findings suggest that the submandibular gland retains some capacity for regeneration even after long-term obstruction, and that CK5 could serve as a marker of this regenerative process.

Abstract
To clarify the mechanisms underlying the submandibular gland atrophies associated with ptyalolithiasis, morphological changes were examined in the rat submandibular gland following either surgical intervention of the duct or functional blockade at substance P receptors (SPRs). Progressive acinar atrophy was observed after duct ligation or avulsion of periductal tissues. This suggested that damage to periductal tissue involving nerve fibers might contribute to ligation-associated acinar atrophy. Immunohistochemically labeled-substance P positive nerve fibers (SPFs) coursed in parallel with the main duct and were distributed around the interlobular, striated, granular and intercalated duct, and glandular acini. Strong SPR immunoreactivity was observed in the duct. Injection into the submandibular gland of a SPR antagonist induced marked acinar atrophy. The results revealed that disturbance of SPFs and SPRs might be involved in the atrophy of the submandibular gland associated with ptyalolithiasis.

Abstract
Functional recovery of the rat submandibular gland following ligation of the main excretory duct was examined. Rat submandibular glands were ligated for 1, 4 and 8 weeks using a micro-clip with a plastic tube. Micro-clips were removed and glands were allowed to recover for periods of 8, 16 and 24 weeks. Submandibular glands were stimulated with autonomimetic drugs (methacholine and isoprenaline) and salivas were collected from atrophic or de-ligated and contralateral control glands. Glands recovered almost full size (92% of control gland) following 24 weeks of de-ligation. Saliva volume secreted by ligated/de-ligated (RSM) and control (LSM) glands were similar with different doses of agonists. Protein output expressed per gram of tissue wet weight was similar from both ligated/de-ligated and control glands with all doses of agonist. Sodium and chloride levels were higher from de-ligated glands than contralateral control glands. Protein electrophoresis showed similar profiles of salivary proteins in all samples with some minor differences. Acinar cells in de-ligated glands showed a normal morphology, as indicated by light microscopy, whilst granular ductal cells were fewer and contained fewer secretory granules. Sodium potassium ATPase staining of striated ducts in de-ligated glands was similar to that of control glands. It can be concluded that rat submandibular glands can regenerate following severe atrophy and secrete normal amounts of saliva containing broadly a full profile of secretory proteins. In contrast to acinar cells, ductal cells appear not to recover full function.

Abstract
The distribution of the myoepithelial cells during regeneration of the rat parotid gland after atrophy induced by one week of parotid duct ligation was investigated by immunohistochemistry for actin and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Immunohistochemically, residual ducts were surrounded by actin-positive cells when clips were removed from the duct. Three days later, most of the newly formed acini originating from the residual ducts were also embraced by actin-positive cells. After 10 days, actin-positivity tended to be seen as dots around acini that decreased in number day by day. On day 21 actin-positive cells mainly surrounded intercalated ducts with only a few positive reactions identified at the acinar periphery. Electron microscopically, residual ducts and newly formed acini were peripherally embraced by myoepithelial cells before day 5. After day 7, shift of myoepithelial cells from the periphery of acini to the duct-acinar junctional region was identified. Then few myoepithelial cells were identified at the periphery of acini. These observations indicate that myoepithelial cells migrate from the acinar periphery to the duct-acinar junctional region during rat parotid regeneration, and that such behaviour is closely related to that seen during rat parotid development.

Abstract
Acinar cell regeneration in the rat parotid gland after atrophy induced by a one week period of duct obstruction was examined using histology, immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). For immunohistochemistry, antibodies to 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU), injected one hour before tissue collection, and cytokeratin were employed. When clips were removed from the duct, only ductal epithelial cells remained; all acinar cells had been deleted. Some duct cells were BrdU positive. After three days, newly-formed acini comprising immature acinar cells had appeared; many of the cells were BrdU positive and mitotic figures were readily identified. Thereafter progressive acinar cell maturation and proliferation occurred, parotid gland weight returning to control levels by 7 days. Peak BrdU labelling indices for duct and acinar cells were on days 0 and 4, respectively. By TEM, cytoplasmic organelles in epithelial cells of transitional duct-acinar structures seen at 2 days were poorly developed. Immature acinar cells seen on day 3 contained zymogen granules and had increased endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. By day 5, maturing acinar cells had abundant endoplasmic reticulum and zymogen granules, resembling acinar cells in control glands. These observations indicated origin of acinar cell precursors from duct cells during regeneration of the acinar cell-free atrophic gland. Subsequent expansion of the acinar cell population was dependent on maturation and proliferation of these newly-formed cells.
