High impact information on Anal Sacs

  • The findings of this study indicate that capillariasis of the anal sacs is commonly seen in free-ranging raccoons in Oregon, and the infection is essentially subclinical because only 1 case of anal sac impaction has been reported [1].
  • In histologically normal canine anal structures, alpha-smooth muscle actin and NSE antibodies stained basally localized (probably myoepithelial) cells in the anal glands and the anal sac glands [2].
  • A single dose of meloxicam was administered prior to surgical resection of the anal sac, and based on elevated liver enzyme activity, liver supportive therapy was initiated [3].
  • Their secretory tubules are enlaced by cholinergic nerves containing chiefly non-specific cholinesterase; the acetylcholinesterase concentration in them is very low in the squirrel and i the glands of the skin of the cat's body, and higher in the glands of the anal sac of the cat [4].
  • 5-Aminovaleric acid, a major free amino acid component of the anal sac secretion of the red fox, Vulpes vulpes [5].
 

Anatomical context of Anal Sacs

  • Capillaries of the anal sacs of raccoons (Procyon lotor) and a possible association with anal-sac impaction [6].
