  • Title: Influence of salivary glands extirpation on procreation in rats.
    Author: Arcieri RM, Martinelli C.
    Journal: Tohoku J Exp Med; 1977 Feb; 121(2):105-10. PubMed ID: 847737.
    Abstract:
    The influence of extirpation of the submandibular and sublingual, parotid and all major salivary glands on pregnancy of rats was studied. The statistic analysis of the results indicated that there are statistically significant differences in the number of offsprings between before and after extirpation of the salivary glands. The parotidectomized female rats presented the smallest number of offsprings as compared with other groups and presented some progressive sterility after the gland extirpation.
