Salivary secretion Flashcards
where does primary saliva secretion occur?
acinus
what is primary secretion made up of?
water
Cl-
K+
Na+
initial acinar secretion
Acinar cell at rest
? pump -> ? out, ? in -> concentration ?
Na/K
Na
K
gradient
initial acinar secretion
acinar cell activated
Increase in membrane permeability to ? -> ? goes into ? and ??
Increase in ? in ?? activates ???? -> ??? go into ?
?? works ? -> no increase in ? concentration
? and ? diffuse from the ? into the ? -> changes the ?
? diffuses ? the ? from ?? to ?
? enters ? from between ? down ??

is initial acinar secretion changed by flow rate?
no
ductal modification of primary saliva occurs where?
in the striated ducts
Ductal modification of primary saliva in the striated ducts
Conversion from ? (? concentrated) to ? (? concentrated) solution
isotonic
more
hypotonic
less
Ductal modification of primary saliva in the striated ducts
Resorption of ? and ?
Na
Cl
Ductal modification of primary saliva in the striated ducts
Adds ? (?) and ? to secretion (lumen)
HCO
bicarbonate
K
Ductal modification of primary saliva in the striated ducts
Striated duct cell at rest
Impermeable to ?
??
Outside the cell high concentration of ? and ?, and low concentration of ?
Inside the cell high concentration of ? and low concentration of ? and ?
water

Cl
Ductal modification of primary saliva in the striated ducts
Striated duct cell activated
Increased ? of ?? -> increase in ? conc. and decrease in ? conc. in the ?
? is pushed into the ? (?) to compensate
? is dragged out of the ? (?) into the ? to compensate
?? removes ?and adds ? into the ? (?)
? buffers ? changes

does flow rate affect modification of saliva in the striated ducts?
yes
how does low flow rate affect modification of saliva in the striated ducts?
Low flow rates - > more time for passive resorption of Na
Lower Na conc. in saliva
how does high flow rates affect modification of saliva in the striated ducts?
less time for resorption of Na
- Higher Na conc. in saliva
If high flow rate, gland activity is high -> Cl/HCO pump works harder
- Increased HCO in saliva
most of the organic components of saliva is secreted by what?
acinar cells
