Abstract：
Salivary glands consist of highly specialized epithelial cells that secrete the fluid, saliva, and/or transport saliva into the oral cavity. Saliva is essential to lubricate the oral cavity for food consumption and to maintain the hygiene of the oral cavity. In this review, we will focus on the formation of the epithelial cell lineage and the cell junctions that are essential for formation of saliva and maintenance of the epithelial barrier between the ducts that transport saliva and the extracellular environment.
摘要：
唾液腺由分泌液体的高度特化的上皮细胞组成，唾液,和/或将唾液运输到口腔中。唾液对于润滑口腔用于食物消耗和保持口腔卫生是必不可少的。在这次审查中,我们将重点关注上皮细胞谱系和细胞连接的形成，这对唾液形成和维持运输唾液的导管和细胞外环境之间的上皮屏障至关重要。
