Postnatal developmental changes in submandibular glands of rats and mice
EW Gresik
The submandibular glands of mice and rats are not fully developed at birth. In early postnatal life, differentiation of acini takes place before that of granular convoluted tubule (GCT) cells. The latter develop from striated duct cells, and first appear in both species around 15 days of age. In mice their full development gets under way by 20 days of age and is rapid in males and slow in females, resulting in a clear sexual dimorphism in adults. In rats, GCT development is more protracted, and accelerates around 40 days of age, with no sexual dimorphism seen at any time. The course of postnatal development of several GCT cell products is correlated with the cytodifferentiation of these cells. Reliable data are available for the development of amylase, proteases (including kallikrein), renin, epidermal growth factor, and nerve growth factor. Preliminary information exists for a glucagon-like substance. Cytodifferentiation of GCT cells is under hormonal control. Androgens alone can not precociously induce GCT cells, but thyroid hormones can do so, acting either alone or synergistically with androgens.
