Sebaceous differentiation in normal salivary gland tissue is known to occur, but primary sebaceous neoplasms of the salivary gland are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, very few studies have described thin-section computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging results in patients with sebaceous lymphadenomas. We describe a 75-year-old man with a sebaceous lymphadenoma of the right salivary gland. Thin-section CT images revealed a well-defined, inhomogeneous, low-density mass with scattered fat density areas, whereas dynamic MR images revealed a mass with fat intensity areas with an early enhanced and delayed washout pattern and an enhanced capsule.

Herbivore insects deploy salivary effectors to manipulate the defense of their host plants. However, it remains unclear whether small RNAs from insects function as effectors in regulating plant-insect interactions. Here, we report that a microRNA (miR29-b) found in the saliva of phloem-feeding whitefly (Bemisa tabaci) can transfer into the host plant phloem during feeding and fine-tune the defense response of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum).

The tumor microenvironment characterized by heterogeneously organized vasculatures causes intra-tumoral heterogeneity of oxygen partial pressure at the cellular level, which cannot be measured by current imaging techniques. The intra-tumoral cellular heterogeneity may lead to a reduction of therapeutic effects of radiation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the heterogeneity on biological effectiveness of H-, He-, C-, O-, and Ne-ion beams for different oxygenation levels, prescribed dose levels, and cell types.

Background: The long-term effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) to restore radiation-induced salivary gland hypofunction in previous head and neck cancer patients have not been validated in larger settings.

Methods: The study was the 12-months follow-up of a randomised trial, including patients with hyposalivation. Patients were randomised to receive allogeneic ASCs or placebo in the submandibular glands.

Introduction: Sialorrhea may be a consequence of severe acquired brain injury (ABI). Salivary gland botulinum neurotoxin (SG-BoNT) injections can reduce saliva production, but there is limited evidence for their use in ABI.We reviewed the effectiveness, impact on chest infection frequency, and safety of SG-BoNT for sialorrhea in a cohort of patients with severe ABI.
