| Resumo: | Objective: Undifferentiated cells play pivotal roles in sustaining tissue homeostasis during physiological turnovers and after tissue impairment. Nestin and Neuron-glial antigen 2 (NG2) are markers frequently deployed to distinguish progenitor populations. In the salivary gland scenario, these markers remain largely unknown. Particularly for a double-labeled group of progenitor cells (NG2+Nestin+), their phenotype and distribution have never been explored in freshly isolated tissues. Herein, we analyzed a subset of plastic cells that express Nestin and NG2 near the ducts and in the periacinar region of the major salivary glands of murine samples. Design: The major salivary glands tissues of Nestin-GFP/NG2-DsRed mice were analyzed under a fluorescence microscope. The cells marked by GFP and DsRed were counted in the merged image component of random representative images obtained for each gland sample at × 20 magnification. Results: In the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands, the population of cells exclusively expressing Nestin was more abundant. There was a predominance of Nestin, NG2, and double-labeled cells in the submandibular gland compared to the parotid gland, mainly near the ductal system. Of note, the sublingual and parotid glands had similar populations of Nestin+ and NG2+, especially in acini, and some positive cells were observed surrounding ducts. |
