Tick-borne pathogen detection in midgut and salivary glands of adult Ixodes ricinus
Parasites & Vectors, 2019 Background The tick midgut and salivary glands represent the primary organs for pathogen acquisition and transmission, respectively. Specifically, the midgut is the first organ to have contact with pathogens during the blood meal uptake, while salivary ...

Salivary glands are a target for SARS‐CoV‐2: a source for saliva contamination
Journal of Pathology, 2021 The ability of the new coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2 to spread and contaminate is one of the determinants of the COVID‐19 pandemic status. SARS‐CoV‐2 has been detected in saliva consistently, with similar sensitivity to that observed in nasopharyngeal swabs. We

UHFUS: A Valuable Tool in Evaluating Exocrine Gland Abnormalities in Sjögren’s Disease
Diagnostics, 2023 Sjögren’s Disease (SjD) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to xerostomia and xerophthalmia. Ultrasonography of Major Salivary Glands (SGUS) is a well-established tool for the identification of the ...
