大约六年前,人们发现海鸟排出电解质的主要途径不是肾脏,而是头部的腺体,即鼻腺,这引起了人们的极大兴趣。在海洋爬行动物中也发现了类似的腺体,但由于某些爬行动物的解剖学起源是眼眶,而鸟类的腺体是鼻部的,我们发现最好通过使用术语来强调这些腺体的功能相似之处,例如“盐腺体”,或为简单起见,“盐腺体”。这一问题于1960年[56]进行了审查,因此,本次审查主要涉及自那时以来的事态发展。
It aroused considerable interest when some six years ago it was discovered that the major route of electrolyte excretion in marine birds is not the kidney but glands in the head, known as the nasal glands. Similar glands are found in marine reptiles, but since the anatomical origin is orbital in some reptiles while it is nasal in birds, we have found it desirable to stress the functional similarity of these glands by the use of terms such as “salt secreting glands”, or for simplicity, “salt glands”. The subject was reviewed in 1960 [56] and the present review therefore deals mostly with developments since that time.
