Salivary and Gastirc Secretory Functions Flashcards
is saliva hyper or hypotonic
hypotonic
what type of control is saliva under
neuronal not hormonal
do hormones have an influence on saliva
they can modify it
what are the functions of saliva
taste, lubrication, protection, digestion, speech
What are the main components of saliva
water, mucus, alpha amylase, lingual lipase, ribonuclease, lysozyme, lactoferrin, lactoperoxidase, IgA, Bicarb
what are the functions of water and mucus in the saliva
dissolving, tasting and swallowing food. lubricaitons and makes a cohesive bolus
what is the function of alpha amylase in saliva
card digestion, breaks the alpha 1-4 bonds
What is the role of lingual lipase in saliva
fat digestion, hydrolysis of dietary lipid
what is the role of lysozyme in saliva
antibacterial, innate and aquired immunity
what is the role of lactoferrin in saliva
chelates iron
what is the role of bicarb in saliva
minimize tooth decay and neutralize refluxed gastric acid into lower esophagus
what is the primary secretory products of acini and duct cells
alpha amylase, mucus and ECF
What do acini cells secrete
saliva H2O na Cl K HCO3 and amylase
what is the role of myoepithelial cells in salivary glands
motile, contract to expel saliva
what is the role of ducta cells in salivary glands
modify secretion by modifying electrolytes
Na Cl reabsorbed
K HCO3 secreted
what is the role of the striated duct epithelium tight junction in salivary glands
H2O cannot leave duct
What is the ufunctional unit of the salivary gland
salivon
At low rates of secretion describe saliva
hypotonic, high K, low NaCl
at high secretion levels describe saliva
osmolality increases, high HCO3, high pH
Salivary duct cells produce a hypotonic fluid that usually has what composition of electrolytes
low NaCl
rich KHCO3
What are the steps for Na reabsorption in salivary glands
Na enters through epithelial Na Channels
NaK ATPase pump extrudes Na
What are the steps for Cl reabsorption in salivary glands
Cl enters through Cl HCO3 exchanger
Cl exits through basolateral Cl Channels
Where is HCO3 secreted by salivary glands
apical Cl-HCO3 exchanger
how is K secreted by salivary gland cells
uptake of K though Na K ATPase
Can water pass through epithelial cells of the salivary glands
no
Which parts of ANS controls flow of salivary gland secretions
SAN and PAN
Which branch of ANS has more control over salivary glands
PAN
Describe what SAN stimulate promotes in salivary glands
major B R so secrete protein, cAMP
minor alpha R to secrete fluid, IP3
describe what PAN stimulates in salivary gland
M3 R to secrete fluid, IP3
vasodilation to surrounding vessels
activation of acinar and duct cell transporter
What hormones have an effecton salivary composition
ADH and aldosterone can modify Na K levels
Kallikrein makes bradykinin (vasodilator)
What activates the ANS to salivary glands
taste, sound, smell
What inhibits ANS to salivary glands
sleep, fear, antidepreseant meds, dehydration, fatigue
how do you treat someone with excessive drooling
anticholinergics and surgical removal of sublingual glands
What is Xerostomia
dry mouth due to absence of saliva production
what can cause xerostomia
buccal infections, dental caries, drugs, radiation, autoimmune disease
What is Sjogrens syndrome
autoimmune to salivary and lacrimal glands resulting in decreased saliva and tear production
difficuly swallowing, speeech etc
How does cystic fibrosis affect salivary glands
elevated Na Ca and protein in saliva, sweat, pancreatic fluid and bronchial secretion
lack CFTR or chloride transporter
How does addisons affect salivary gland
increase Na in saliva, dereased reabsorption
how does Primary aldosteronism and Cushings affect salivary glands
decrease Na in salive, increased reabsorption (salivary NaCl is zero with increased K levels)
How can digoxin therapy affect salivary glands
increase Ca and K in saliva
How can parkinsons and tumors of the mouth and esophagus affect saliva
increased production due to unusual local reflexes and increased neuro stimulation
Is stomach fluid hypo, iso or hypertonic
isotonic
What does the proximal portion of the stomach secrete
HCl, Pepsinogen, IF, Mucus, HCO3, water
what does the distal portion of the stomach secrete
gastrin, somatostatin
Which part of the stomach has endocrine and paracrine actions
the distal
What are the types of secretory epithelial cells in the stomach
superficial, mucus neck cell, stem cell, parietal, chief and endocrine
What do the mucus neck cells in the stomach secrete
Mucus and bicarb
whar do the parietal cells in the stomach secrete
HCl, IF
