The glands may suffer from viral, bacterial, and, albeit rarely, fungal infections, which may cause painful swelling or obstruction; they could also become the target of an autoimmune attack or may be affected by various benign and malignant tumors which consist of a heterogeneous group of lesions with complex clinical-pathological characteristics. The loss of normal SG function results in widespread deterioration of oral health. This book, entitled \"Diseases of Salivary Glands\", provides an overview of recent advances in the field of SG disorders, focusing on the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of SG diseases and on the most innovative investigation techniques that could help to preserve patients' health, function, and quality of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margherita Sisto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3036502726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783036502724\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 1.00d","brand":"Margherita Sisto","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982104920319,"sku":"9783036502724","price":81.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3799f492-fd05-45c4-bfd1-4c731637a333.jpg?v=1683259254","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/diseases-of-the-salivary-glands-margherita-sisto-9783036502724","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
