Saliva Gland Flashcards
Salivary Glands
Sublingual gland, parotid gland, submandibular gland
rat salivary gland
down and behind ear- lacrimal gland is the in front one
mucous cells
minor salivary glands and sublinguals
serous
parotid gland
water and proteins, physiologic fluid
mucos
minor slaivary glands and sublingual
slippery, protection
gland diagram
look in notes
saliva glands are
neurochemical
dual innervated
both go to more saliva produced
sympathetic nervous system
T1-T3 norepi to Beta adrenergic increased cAMP more saliva develops postnatal (p3-p5)
parasympathetic nervous system
cranial nerves 9 and 7
IP3 and DAG
ACH to M3R
development At the same time of gland
bicarbonate secretion
CO2 diffuses into cell and is combined with water to make carbonic acid, it dissociates the H+, in an activated cell bicarb leaves through secretory vesicles
chloride mediated secretion
activation of a g protein (ach on m3) - more IP3- increased calcium- ion channel activation- Chlroide flows out of cell, sodium follows to keep neutral- water follows that
h2o channels
aquaporin 5
chloride channels
tmem16a
straited ducts
pump on ions to make saliva hypotonic
na and cl out
k in
“stage 2” of saliva secretion
protein secretion
beta adrenergic receptor- nor epi on g protein- cAMP- leads to vesicles dumping out protein & glycosylation and phosphorylation in ER & protein kinase in nucleus
constitutive pathway
transport cell membrane protein in vesicles to cell membrane and does not require a NT
consitutive like pathway
transport of secretory proteins in vesicles that bud from golgi- minimal agonist concentration
major regulated pathways
rapid release of granules that fusion to the luminal cell surface
high doses of NT
minor regulatory pathways
slow release of vesicles that relase from maturing secretory granules
low dose NT
saliva functions
lubricate, ion reservior, buffer, clean, antimicrobial. pellice, agglutination, digestion, taste, exretion, water balance
ectodermal dysplasia
can lead to non functioning saliva glands
Sjorgrens syndrome
autoimmune to exocrine glands (salivary lacrmial)
radiation can
kill salivary glands
salivary gland development
parotid = ectoderm sublingaul/submandibular= unknown (mix of mesodermal and ectodermal?) minor= mesodermal
