[Diagnostic and therapy of salivary gland diseases: relevant aspects for the pathologist from the clinical perspective].
Significant progress in the diagnosis and therapy of salivary gland diseases has been made in recent years. The new technique of diagnostic and interventional sialendoscopy has made an important contribution and is indicated in every case of obstructive sialadenitis. The number of open resections of salivary glands due to stones will clearly decrease in the future in favor of endoscopic removal. Due to recent publications on the appropriate extent of salivary gland resection in benign tumors, more and more specimens with reduced cuffs of healthy salivary gland tissue will be sent to the pathologists. Ultrasound will stay the procedure of first choice for imaging of salivary gland diseases in Germany. In combination with fine-needle aspiration cytology high sensitivity and specificity for the assessment of salivary gland tumors can be achieved. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a new imaging tool and the power of distinction of pleomorphic adenoma from malignant tumors is promising. The use of botulinum toxin for salivary glands diseases is increasing. Intraglandular injections have been shown to induce salivary gland atrophy in animal experiments. The availability of biologicals is currently yielding new aspects for the treatment of Sjögren's disease.

Expression of keratin 14 and 19 mRNA and protein in normal oral epithelia, hairy leukoplakia, tongue biting and white sponge nevus.
This study was undertaken to analyze keratin gene expression at both the mRNA and protein level in oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL). Comparisons were made with normal lingual epithelium from a similar site, tongue biting, normal buccal mucosa and another condition which disturbs oral epithelial differentiation, white sponge nevus. Combined immunocytochemical and in situ hybridization studies for keratins 14 and 19 were carried out on 2 specimens of OHL from HIV-positive males and one sample each of the other cases. Keratin 14 protein expression was uniform throughout all the epithelia. In normal epithelia and in lesions other than OHL, keratin 14 mRNA was most strongly expressed in basal cells with weaker but still significant amounts in the spinous cell layer. In both cases of OHL there was weaker basal cell expression of keratin 14 mRNA and frequent absence in koilocytoid cells. Keratin 19 protein expression was heterogeneous in the basal layer of all specimens with suprabasal staining of occasional groups of cells. Its mRNA was uniformly distributed in all cases. The findings indicate the keratin mRNA expression does not always parallel that of protein and that, in the case of keratin 14, expression may be influenced by the presence of EBV.
