Future research Because there are few
salivary gland stem
cells in the human mouth, the scientists plan to continue using rat
salivary glands to refine the process, but eventually hope to use stem
cells derived from human bone marrow or umbilical cord blood to regenerate
salivary glands for humans.

cell carcinoma, basal
cell cancer, glomus tumor, paragangliomas, acoustic neuromas,
salivary gland and mucosal tumors, astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, glioblastomas, and hemangioblastomas, and metastatic tumors that may have arisen from elsewhere in the body such as the breast, lung, or prostate.
Digestive enzymes are diverse and are found in the saliva secreted by the
salivary glands, in the stomach secreted by
cells lining the stomach, in the pancreatic juice secreted by pancreatic exocrine
cells, and in the intestinal (small and large) secretions, or as part of the lining of the gastrointestinal tract.
