Q

This salivary gland’s anterior end wraps around the caudal end of the mylohyoid and the duct travels superficially to empty into the oral cavity at Wharton’s duct

A

submandibular

30
Q

This salivary gland is the largest and sits superficial to the caudal end of the masseter, and discharges saliva through Stenson’s duct

A

parotid

31
Q

This salivary gland is the smallest and empties into a series of ducts behind Wharton’s duct called Bartholin and Rivinus ducts

A

sublingual

32
Q

This serves as the supporting role of the salivary gland forming a capsule and organizing the gland into lobes

A

stroma

33
Q

This serves as doing the characteristic work of the given gland; making saliva and discharging it to the final destination

A

parenchyma

34
Q

The stroma is made up of what type of tissue

A

connective tissue

35
Q

The parenchyma is make up of what type of tissue

A

epithelium

36
Q

This divides the gland into lobes (large) and lobules (minor)

A

septa

37
Q

This produces collagen in the stroma

A

fibroblasts

38
Q

These supply the parenchyma in the stroma

A

blood vessels nerve fibers

39
Q

This secretes antibodies in the stroma

A

plasma cells

40
Q

This increases with age in the stroma

A

fat calls

41
Q

During which embryonic week do the salivary glands begin development

A

6th

42
Q

What is the order of gland development

A

parotid submandibular sublingual minor glands (2-3 months)

43
Q

Where is the parenchyma of both the acini and ducts derived from

A

ectoderm (parotid) or endoderm

44
Q

Where is the stroma derived from

A

neural crest

45
Q

What are the two main components of the parenchyma

A

secretory portion called acini ducts

46
Q

What are the acini composed of

A

individual acinar or secretary cells; they make saliva

47
Q

What are the two main types of acinar cells

A

serous mucous

48
Q

The acini open up into a series of what kind of ducts, which get progressively larger

A

intercalated started (secretory) excretory

49
Q

The initiation of salivary gland development begins which what

A

the thickening of the ectoderm or endoderm forming a bud; signals exchanged between ectoderm/endoderm and mesenchyme

50
Q

Once the salivary bud branches, what occurs

A

more branching then part of the branching hollows out in process known as cavitation

51
Q

This molecule is important in cell adhesion, but disappears upon clefting/branching of the gland

A

e-cadherin

52
Q

True or False The cell turns off its expression of e-cadherin, making way for branching to occur

A

False; it does not turn off the expression, it just re-directs it

53
Q

This molecular is important for clefting to occur

A

BTBD7 (cleftin); siRNA’s were used to inhibit it

54
Q

Cleftin is induced by what ECM molecule

A

fibronectin

55
Q

What two actions does cleftin do

A

suppresses the expression of e-cadherin upregulates expression of snail2

56
Q

What is the current hypothesis involving snail2

A

promotes change in cell shape, coupled with the loss of e-cadherin

57
Q

True or False The acini secrete saliva

A

True

58
Q

True or False The ducts only secrete saliva

A

False; they also resorb certain components

59
Q

This is the primary secretion or primary saliva

A

water proteins and ions like Na and Cl

60
Q

True or False the primary secretion/saliva is isotonic

A

True

61
Q

True or False acinar cells are not water permeable, which duct cells are water permeable

A

False; acinar cells are water permeable duct cells are not

62
Q

What does the duct cells secrete

A

few proteins like bicarbonate

63
Q

True or False The secondary secretion/saliva is isotonic

A

False; it is hyoptonic

64
Q

Salivary secretion is under what control

A

neural control; parasympathetics and sympathetics

65
Q

Which cranial nerves play a role in salivary gland innervation

A

7 - facial 9 - glossopharyngeal

66
Q

The sympathetic supply to the salivary glands originates where

A

in the IML of the spinal cord then to the superior cervical ganglion

67
Q

The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for what kind of secretion

A

protein

68
Q

Activation of the sympathetic nervous system along produces what

A

a protein-laden, viscous secretion that is not voluminous

69
Q

The parasympathetic nervous system is mainly responsible for what kind of secretion

A

fluid secretion that account for most of the volume of saliva

70
Q

In the salivary gland cells, this is maintained at high intracellular concentration with an energy-requiring ion pump

A

chloride
