Myoepithelium of the rat submaxillary gland.
TLDR
It is concluded that rat submaxillary gland MEC are similar to visceral smooth muscle cells and could efficiently serve as an adjunctive mechanism in the egestive phase of secretion.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of salivary gland function by autonomic nerves.
Gordon Proctor,Guy H. Carpenter +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that glands can regenerate provided that the autonomic innervation remains intact and extended periods of autonomic denervation, liquid diet feeding (reduced reflex stimulation) or duct ligation cause salivary gland atrophy.
Book ChapterDOI
The myothelia (myoepithelial cells). Normal state; regressive changes; hyperplasia; tumors.
TL;DR: First the normal myoepithelia of various tissues are examined, then regressive changes and hyperplasia are considered, in order to apply the information thus obtained to the problem of tumors.
Book ChapterDOI
The cytology of salivary glands.
TL;DR: The synthesis, intracellular transport, storage, and discharge of exportable protein by exocrine-secreting cells are also discussed.

Arrangement, ultrastructure, and adrenergic innervation of smooth musculature of the ductuli efferentes, ductus epididymidis and ductus deferens of man
H. G. Baumgarten,H. G. Baumgarten,A. F. Holstein,A. F. Holstein,Evald Rosengren,Evald Rosengren +5 more
TL;DR: There is a gradual proximo-distal increase in the thickness of the muscle coat of the human ductuli efferentes, duetus epididymidis and ductus deferens, and noradrenergic nerves have been identified by the presence of small granular vesicles in preterminal varicose axon dilatations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myoepithelium of salivary glands.
TL;DR: The presentation here of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of well‐differentiated myoepithelial cells in mitotic division indicates that stem cells are not necessarily the only source of myoepsidium cells in the later stages of salivary gland development or in neoplasia.

Improvements in epoxy resin embedding methods.
TL;DR: Epoxy embedding methods of Glauert and Kushida have been modified so as to yield rapid, reproducible, and convenientembedding methods for electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of fixation for electron microscopy
TL;DR: Fixation experiments with buffered OsO4 solutions have shown that the appearance of the fixed cells is conditioned by the pH of the fixative, and the quality of fixation can be materially improved by buffering the OsO 4 solutions at pH 7.3-7.5 with acetate-veronal buffer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Varying the Vehicle for OsO4 in Tissue Fixation
TL;DR: Differences in the quality of OsO4 fixation of tissue cells obtained with any one of the several recommended mixtures may be referable to structural or compositional variations associated with functional changes, but in most instances the differences seem more properly considered as products of fixation.

s-Collidine as a Basis for Buffering Fixatives
H. Stanley Bennett,John H. Luft +1 more
TL;DR: The search for a medium which might offer improvements from the point of view of stability and buffering capacity for Palade's buffered osmic fixative was focused on s-collidine, which has a pK of about 7.4.
