Background Based on morphologic and functional differences mainly, 4 distinct types of
cells are recognized in human salivary glands. For a better understanding of cellular
proliferation and differentiation of human salivary glands as well as carcinogenesis of
salivary gland neoplasms, we attempted to establish normal human salivary gland cells in
an in vitro system.
