  • Title: Subcellular localization of blood group substances ABH in human salivary glands.
    Author: Cossu M, Riva A, Lantini MS.
    Journal: J Histochem Cytochem; 1990 Aug; 38(8):1165-72. PubMed ID: 2365990.
    Abstract:
    We investigated the subcellular localization of ABH antigens in human submandibular, sublingual, and buccal glands by applying a post-embedding immunogold method using monoclonal antibodies specific for A, B, and H antigens. In most glands the immunoreactivity was usually restricted to mucous cells, in which only secretory granules and sometimes Golgi cisternae were specifically labeled. A and B antigens were demonstrated only in the glands of type A, B, and AB subjects, while H antigen was visualized in glands from individuals of all blood types. Moreover, differences were observed in the relative distribution of ABH antigens, depending on the type of gland.
