Using an antibody specific to striated rootlets, we investigated the immuolocalization of striated rootlets in cells constituting human submandibular glands. Striated rootlets were positively stained in all cell types constituting acini, intercalated ducts, striated ducts, and interlobular ducts, but their shapes were different. The mean lengths of striated rootlets were 1.46 +/- 0.49, 3.15 +/- 1.35 and 3.99 +/- 1.02 microm in acinar secretory cells, myoepithelial cells, and columnar cells of the striated duct, respectively. The rootlets were the longest in columnar cells of the striated duct, in which paired centrioles were located in the apical cytoplasm away from nuclei. These findings suggest that striated rootlets play important roles in the positioning of centrioles in the cell. 2-8% of striated rootlets in myoepithelial cells were associated with solitary cilia, but they were not associated with solitary cilia in acinar cells and columnar cells of the striated duct. These observations suggest that striated rootlets may be associated with centrioles under normal physiological conditions, without formation of solitary cilia. |
