Effect of Undernutrition During the Perinatal Period on Caries Development in the Rat: III. Effects of Undernutrition on Biochemical Parameters in the Developing Submandibular Salivary Gland

LEWIS MENAKER 1 and JUAN M. NAVIA 1

Undernutrition imposed on rats during the suckling period led to diminished levels of the biologic compounds associated with protein biosynthetic pathways in the submandibular salivary gland. DNA, RNA, protein concentration, and total wet weight in undernourished rats did not return to control amounts after intubation with a supplement containing no protein. However, supplements of a solution containing 10% protein during early development completely restored control amounts.
