Abstract
An important problem in modern medicine and biology is the study of the mechanisms of aging and the possibility of development of diseases connected with them. There is much evidence of age changes in structural and histochemical parameters of salivary gland function in man and different species of animals [6, 16, 20]. At the same time we know that certain diseases of the salivary glands which, as we know, perform an endocrine function [i, 7], and in particular, metabolic sialoses and autoimmune paratitis may arise when the integrity of the endocrine system is disturbed, most frequently in the period of age involution [9, 13, 17].
