Sweep 3 Flashcards
Xerostomia
Management
Stimulate muscarinic receptors
—–Pilocarpine—Ach agonist
Treat symptoms
Acetylcholine Primarily (some effect of Norepinephrine via α-adrenergic receptor)
Opening of Ca++ sensitive Cl- and K+ channels
Increased flow rate, lowered ductal modification
Norepinephrine
Protein rich saliva
PKA-mediated exocytosis
β-adrenergic receptor
Protein secretion by
PKA mediated exocytosis
Parasympathetic stimulation releases
ACh onto the acinar cells and results in a watery plasma-like secretion.
Secondary duct: Low flow rate=
Low rate=high [K]; high rate=high [Na]
Salivary fluid
Intracellular Na+
kept low
Salivary fluid
Intracellular K+
kept high
Salivary fluid
Intracellular Cl-
Cl- high
Salivary fluid
In unstimulated cells, Ca2+ levels are
low, and Ca2+ activated K+ and Cl- channels are closed.
Upon stimulation, Ca2+ opens the
Cl- and K+ channels.
Na+ leaks through tight junctions to follow Cl-
Acinar Cellular Origin
Amylase, Lipase, Mucoproteins, Proline-rich proteins, Tyrosine-rich proteins (and many others)
Nonacinar Cell Origin
Lysozyme, immunoglobulin, growth factors, regulatory peptides (NGF)
Paracrine mediators
Produced by
local cells
Reach target cells via diffusion

fatty acids

Secretin
Athetoid (dyskinetic) CP:
slow rate, dysrhythmia, inappropriate voice stoppages & reduced stress, more artic errors
Spastic CP:
breathy voice, monopitch, monoloudness, hypernasality, voice quality changes throughout utterance, better speech intelligibility with fewer artic errors
goblet cells secrete mucus which can trap airborne particles and pathogens; cilia on epithelial cells move mucus upwards to pharynx where it can be swallowed or expelled
this occurs in
conducting zone
Cystic fibrosis
mutation in genetic code for
Cl- channel reduces the amount of Na+ and Cl- secreted across the epithelium into mucus. This leads to there being less water in the mucus (due to osmosis)→ mucus is thick and dry
transpulmonary (Ptp) =
Palv - Pip
Patm is 0 by definition; Palv equal Patm between
breaths (no air is moving)
Between breaths:
Pip
below atmospheric pressure
Ptp = Palv – Pip;
lungs remain expanded
lungs tend to recoil inward –
chest wall tends to recoil outward –
net result is Pip is always subatmospheric
During inspiration –
diaphragm contracts → thorax expands
Pip becomes more negative
Ptp increases so lung volume increases and air flows in until Palv = Patm
During expiration -
diaphragm relaxes → thorax compresses
Pip becomes less negative
Ptp decreases so lung volume decreases and air flows out until Palv = Patm
Lung compliance
CL =
ΔVL/(Palv – Pip) = ΔVL/PTP
