Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the effect of bone marrow derived stem cells injection on age changes of submandibular salivary glands through:
I- Histological examination:
Hematoxylin and eosin (H.x. & E) stains: were used for routine histological evaluation.
Masson’s trichrome stain: was used to detect any possible changes in the stromal elements of the submandibular salivary glands.
II- Immunohistochemical examination:
A) Monoclonal mouse anticytokeratin antibodies were used to detect cytokeratins ( #5, 6 & 18).
B) Monoclonal mouse antimyosin antibodies were used to detect myosin.
C) Bax for detection of apoptosis.
