Removal of one of these organs can result in the development of localized flushing or sweating known as Frey's syndrome. The primary malignant tumors of these structures contain cells with MECT1-MAML2 gene fusions. These structures may be affected by Warthin's tumor or pleomorphic adenoma. The major types of these structures are emptied by Wharton's and Stensen's ducts, and can come in serous or mucinous varieties. They are infiltrated by lymphocytes in Sjogren's syndrome, resulting in the development of (*) xerostomia. Calvin Bridges developed chromosomal maps of these structures' polytene chromosomes in fly larvae. Along with testicular enlargement, painful swelling of these organs is associated with mumps. For 10 points, name these structures, examples of which include the submandibular and parotid, that secrete lysozyme- and amylase-containing fluid into the oral cavity.
