Any process induced by ecdysone that directly activates salivary gland programmed cell death during salivary gland histolysis. The stage-specific programmed cell death of salivary gland cells during salivary gland histolysis. A biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's form or structure. Examples include the change from tadpole to frog, and the change from larva to adult. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster. The stage-specific break down of the larval salivary glands during Drosophila metamorphosis, to allow replacement of larval structures by tissues and structures that form the adult fly. A form of programmed cell death that is accompanied by macroautophagy, which is characterized by the sequestration of cytoplasmic material within autophagosomes for bulk degradation by lysosomes. Autophagic cell death is characterized by lack of chromatin condensation, massive vacuolization of the cytoplasm, and accumulation of (double-membraned) autophagic vacuoles, with little or no uptake by phagocytic cells. The process, occurring during instar larval or pupal development, by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The breakdown of tissues; usually, if not always, accompanied by cell death, followed by the complete dissolution of dead tissue. Cell death resulting from activation of endogenous cellular processes. The process by which the anatomical structures of the salivary gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process, occurring after embryonic development, by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form.
