    According to the morphologic observation of parotid glands of 88 cadevers of adults.It's obvious that:①The parotid gland is of different shapes and sizes,including irregular triangularshape,irregular quadrilateral-shape,strawberry-shape,wing-shape and hoof-shape.②The parotid gland has many processes,such as duct process,temporal process,inferior process,processus mastoideus, pterygo-mandibular process, parapharyngeal process and tympano-mandibular process.The amount of processes and the degree of development are related to the shape of parotid gland.③The original site,length and superficial projection of parotid duct are related to the shape of parotid gland.The horizontal line from the lower brim of auricular lobule to the line which goes from mandibular angle to the peak point of zigomatic can be regarded as the superficial projection of parotid duct.④The accessory parotid gland occurs separately.Its duct joins in the parotid duct by acute angle.

    We have employed the technique of whole-mount cultured cell fixed with potassium permanganate to examine the ultrastructure of the endoplasmic reticulum(ER)in cells of different cell lines(Hela,LA795and 2BS).and revealed a continuous ER network consisting of interconnecting tubules extending throughout the cytoplasm.We have also examined the ultrastructure and threedimensional relationships of mitochondria.The cristae of mitochondria is clearly seen in Hela cells fixed with potassium permanganate for 7 min at room temperatrue. The results suggest that this method is very useful for direct examination of the ultrastructure and distribution of membrnae organelles.

    We studied the effects of Mycobacterial polysaccharides(MPS)on the suppression function of cyclophosphamide to BALB/C mice bone marrow.The results showed that 1.0 mg/kg of MPS had enhance effects on the GM-CFU(control-1,316.5±34.6,MPS group,454.5±19.1 ,P<0.05;control-2,208.7±43.7,MPS group,437.8±54.1, P<0.02). However,in 0.15 mg/ kg and 1.0 mg/kg of MPS,the levels of GM-CSF activity in sera of mice raised obviously;0.15 mg/kg of MPS could stimulate mice to produce 500 U GM-CSF per 0.1 mL sera,1.0 mg/kg of MPS could make mice induce 850 U GM-CSF per 0.1 mL sera.Analysis indicated that the activity levels of the MPS was the same as Japanese Z-100,and the hemopoietic effects of MPS may be indirect by stimulating monocytes and T lymphacytes indirectly.

    Silver-binding nucleolar organizer regions(Ag-NORs)have been counted in section of routinely processed paraffinembedded tissue blocks.We have examined 55 benign and malignant lesions of larynx by this method.The Ag-NOR counts were 3.29±0.63(n=32)for carcinomas,2.11±0. 34(n=8)for atypical hyperplasia and 1.72 ±0.17(n=14)for papilloma.Carcinomas had significantly higher counts than the other two groups(P<0.01).Between atypical hyperplasia and papilloma groups,the difference of mean Ag-NOR numbers were significant(P<0.01).It may be that the numbers of Ag-NOR reflect cell biological activity or even neoplasia. This method could perhaps be used quantitatively or semiquantitatively to assist in the diagnosis of malignant and benign lesions of larynx or even precancerosis.
