Here we review the anatomy and cytoarchitecture of SGs and the most recent literature that has enabled a better understanding of the molecular signalling pathways of SGs development to translate this basic research towards therapy for patients suffering from salivary hypo function.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology}, author={Sisto, Margherita and Ribatti, Domenico and Lisi, Sabrina}, year={2020}, month={May}, pages={305–318} }
