Lectin binding patterns of Con A. PNA, SHA, DBA, WGA, RCA‐1 and UEA‐1 were tarried out in duct‐ligated submandibular glands (SMGs) of rats that diplayed acute degenerating changes Lectin staining was also related to histologic changes. Proliferating epithelial cells which were probably derived from intercalated duet cells showed a strong SBA and WGA staining on the 3rd day. Duct‐like and cystic structures appeared on the 7th day and staining by PNA, SBA. WGA. RCA‐1 and Con A was described In mice. lectin binding after duct ligation appeared similar to the rat In the long‐term observation of mice SMGs. acinar cell regeneration occurred between the 2lsl and 42nd days and they stained strongly for DBA.
