Abstract Saliva in the mouth is a biofluid produced mainly by three pairs of major salivary glands – submandibular, parotid and sublingual along with secretions from many minor submucosal glands. Salivary gland secretion nerve‐mediated reflex volume saliva secreted dependent on intensity type taste chemosensory, masticatory or tactile stimulation. Long periods low (resting unstimulated) flow are broken short high flow, which stimulated mastication. The modulated nerve signals other centers central nervous system, most obvious as hyposalivation at times anxiety. An example neurohormonal influences circadian rhythm, affects ionic composition. Cholinergic parasympathetic adrenergic sympathetic autonomic nerves evoke secretion, signaling through muscarinic M3 adrenoceptors acinar cells leading to fluid proteins. chloride sodium secreting, isotonic rendered hypotonic duct it flows mouth. proteins present glands, creating viscoelasticity enabling coating oral surfaces saliva. films essential for maintaining health regulating microbiome. contains range validated potential disease biomarkers derived epithelial cells, neutrophils, microbiome, gingival crevicular serum.

The mammalian Slc4 (Solute carrier 4) family of transporters is a functionally diverse group 10 multi-spanning membrane proteins that includes three Cl-HCO3 exchangers (AE1-3), five Na(+)-coupled HCO3(-) (NCBTs), and two other unusual members (AE4, BTR1). In this review, we mainly focus on the NCBTs-NBCe1, NBCe2, NBCn1, NDCBE, NBCn2. Each plays specialized role in maintaining intracellular pH and, by contributing to movement across epithelia, whole-body otherwise epithelial transport. Disruptions involving NCBT genes are linked blindness, deafness, proximal renal tubular acidosis, mental retardation, epilepsy. We also review AE1-3, AE4, BTR1, addressing their relevance study NCBTs. This draws together recent advances our understanding phylogenetic origins physiological NCBTs progenitors.

Maintenance of a film saliva on oral surfaces is dependent upon nerve-mediated, reflex salivary gland secretion. Afferent signalling arises from taste, olfaction and mastication modified by other centres in the central nervous system before efferent signals are delivered to glands autonomic nerves. Salivary fluid secretion largely cholinergic parasympathetic nerves whilst protein content additionally neuropeptides and, major (parotid, submandibular sublingual) glands, sympathetic release noradrenaline. There have been significant recent advances our understanding membrane transport proteins involved intracellular calcium acinar cells response nerve stimulation ion responsible for cell saliva. retain an ability regenerate following extreme atrophy, important role both development maintenance long-term normal function.

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) belongs to the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily but functions as an anion channel crucial for salt and water transport across epithelial cells. CFTR dysfunction, because of mutations, causes (CF). anion-selective pore protein is formed by its two domains (TMDs) regulated cytosolic domains: nucleotide (NBDs) a regulatory (R) domain. Channel activation requires phosphorylation R domain cAMP–dependent kinase (PKA), opening closing (gating) phosphorylated channels driven hydrolysis at NBDs. This review summarizes available information on structure mechanism protein, with particular focus atomic-level insight gained from recent cryo-electron microscopic structures molecular mechanisms gating regulation. pharmacological small molecules targeting CFTR’s ion function, aimed treating patients suffering CF other diseases, are briefly discussed.

Submucosal glands contribute to airway surface liquid (ASL), a film that protects all surfaces. Glandular mucus comprises electrolytes, water, the gel-forming mucin MUC5B, and hundreds of different proteins with diverse protective functions. Gland volume per unit area mucosal correlates positively impaction rate inhaled particles. In human main bronchi, is ∼ 50 times goblet cells, but diminish in size frequency distally.

Airway have tubuloacinar structure, single terminal duct, nonciliated collecting then branching secretory tubules lined mucous cells ending serous acini. They allow for massive increase numbers mucus-producing without replacing ciliated cells. Active secretion Cl(-) HCO3 (-) produces most fluid gland secretions.
