Histochemical, immunohistochemical and histomorphometrical changes in sialadenitis have been studied on 33 biopsies of labial salivary glands (LSG) from patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome. The control group consisted of 10 biopsies from persons without oral cavity inflammatory diseases. A direct relation was established between xerostomia stage and the degree of LSG parenchyma substitution for the inflammatory cell infiltrate. Dependence of LSG tissue damage on local immunopathologic reaction was detected. With a highly active inflammatory reaction the changes were characterized by cellular hypersensitivity including inflammatory cell infiltrate (T-lymphocytes, macrophages, neutrophils), increased vascular permeability, destructive and proliferative changes of the intralobular ductuli and acini. Reduction in inflammatory activity was accompanied by a decrease in the number of macrophages and neutrophils, an increase in the number of plasma cells and mast cells, higher compensatory hypertrophy of the serous cells of semicircular mixed acini, secretion products status, as well as intralobular sclerosis and lipomatosis.

D009024 Morphogenesis The development of anatomical structures to create the form of a single- or multi-cell organism. Morphogenesis provides form changes of a part, parts, or the whole organism.
D002199 Capillary Permeability The property of blood capillary ENDOTHELIUM that allows for the selective exchange of substances between the blood and surrounding tissues and through membranous barriers such as the BLOOD-AIR BARRIER; BLOOD-AQUEOUS BARRIER; BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER; BLOOD-NERVE BARRIER; BLOOD-RETINAL BARRIER; and BLOOD-TESTIS BARRIER. Small lipid-soluble molecules such as carbon dioxide and oxygen move freely by diffusion. Water and water-soluble molecules cannot pass through the endothelial walls and are dependent on microscopic pores. These pores show narrow areas (TIGHT JUNCTIONS) which may limit large molecule movement.
