Ten adult buffalo heads were used in this study. Following skin removal, the length, width and thickness of the gland was measured. by ruler and caliper. Dye injection was used to distinguish the sublingual duct papilla and 1 cm sections from the gland were removed and fixed to prepare histologic sections for microscopic studies. The long, ribbon like and lobulated monostomatic part of the gland is situated underneath the tongue alongside the hypoglossus muscle. The average length, width and thickness of this part was 20.6, 1.01 and 1.99 cm respectively. The polystomatic part was observed as small scattered fragments near the mucosa of the oral cavity. The average size of these fragments was approximately 0.5 cm and the diffuseness of the polystomatic part in caudal region is more than the cranial region. The monostomatic part has a single duct which together with the mandibular salivary duct enters the sublingual caruncle. The minute polystomatic ducts open into the lateral sublingual recess and their number is equal to the number of scattered parts. Histologically, approximately 90% of the secretory cells of this gland consist of mucous secreting cells.

The heads of ten adult camels were used in this study. Following skin removal, the length, width and thickness of the gland was measured by ruler and caliper. Dye injection was used to distinguish the sublingual duct papilla and 1cm sections from the gland were removed and fixed to prepare histologic sections stained with H & E for microscopic studies. The long, ribbon like and lobulated monostomatic part of the gland is situated underneath the tongue alongside the hypoglossus muscle. This part of the gland begins from the mandibular symphysis and is continued caudally to near the root of the tongue. The average length, width and thickness of this part were 15.2±0.02, 2.2±0.03 and 0.5±0.05 cm respectively. The polystomatic part was observed as scattered and lobulated near the submucosa and in front of the monostomatic part with decreasing concentration caudally. The average size of these fragments was approximately 0.5±0.02 cm. The overall appearance of the gland was lobulated with a pink colour. The monostomatic part has a single duct entering the sublingual caruncle. The minute polystomatic ducts open into the depressions alongside the tongue inside the oral cavity. These ducts are numerous. Histologically, the gland is surrounded by a capsule of dense connective tissue. Trabcules from the capsule penetrate the gland and divide it into lobules. Loose connective tissue makes up the framework of the gland and there are tubulo-acinus glands in the spaces of this framework. Approximately 95% of the secretory cells of this gland consist of mucous secreting cells. Myoepithelial cells are seen on the external surface of the secretory cells and also alongside the connecting ducts.

Busulfan disrupts testicular function. Given the importance of the effects of leech saliva in the treatment of various diseases, this study aimed to investigate the effect of leech saliva on spermatogenesis and secretion of LH, FSH and testosterone following administration of busulfan in rats. Experimental 60 male Wistar rats aged 2.5 to 3 months with a weight of 200-220 g were randomly divided into 4 groups of 15 (control, leech saliva, busulfan, and busulfan + leech saliva). The busulfan group received intraperitoneal injection of busulfan at a dose of 10 mg / kg twice daily for 21 days. The leech saliva group received 1000 µg / kg leech saliva after 56 days from the first day of the experiment for 56 days. Subcutaneously injected, and the busulfan + saliva group received 10 mg / kg of busulfan saline at 1000 µg / kg saline, subcutaneously after 35 days of the second day of busulfan administration for 56 days. Five rats in each group were anesthetized on day 14, 28, 56 after injection and blood samples were taken from the heart to measure testosterone, LH, and FSH hormones. Statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test were considered significant at P

Salivary glands are the most important of the mouth internal secretory.saliva contains many useful enzymes that help in the digestive process.there are for major salinery glands in cats,including the mandibular,sublingual,parotid,and zygomatic galnd. Adenocarinomacan affect any of these salivary glands in cats,but the major target of this tomur in cats in the parotid gland.sublingual mass of a cat with clinical sign such as dysphagia,saliva drooling, anorexia and weight loss removed by surgical operation and sent for the histopathological evaluation. in microscopic observation:tumor of a glandular epithelium was seen.acinar cells had been established a solid and adenoid pattern.Malignansy sings,including mitotic formation,hyperchromatism and pleomorphism were clearly visible in nucleus of the neoplastic cells.clinical and histopathological finding reveals an acinic cell adenocarcinoma and in our knowledge,this is the first report of this kind of tumor in salivary gland of a cat.
