Decrease of extracellular fluid in dog submandibular glands during secretion under arterial clamping conditions.

T Nakahari, M Miyamoto, K Sano

    The Japanese Journal of Physiology
    |January 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary

    The interlobular space in dog submandibular glands acts as a fluid reservoir during salivary secretion. This fluid compartment significantly decreases in volume when blood supply is absent during stimulation.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Microscopy
    • Salivary Gland Biology

    Background:

    • Salivary secretion involves complex fluid dynamics within the salivary glands.
    • The role of extracellular fluid (ECF) compartments, particularly the interlobular space, in salivary secretion remains incompletely understood.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the volume changes of the interlobular space within dog submandibular glands.
    • To determine the contribution of the interlobular space to salivary fluid secretion under conditions of absent blood supply.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized microscopic observation techniques to monitor volume changes.
    • Focused on the extracellular fluid (ECF) compartments of the submandibular glands.
    • Examined gland function during both resting and stimulated states, specifically without blood perfusion.

    Main Results:

    • Observed significant decreases in the volume of the interlobular space during stimulated secretion.
    • These volume changes occurred in the absence of blood supply, isolating the contribution of interstitial fluid.
    • The interlobular space demonstrated a dynamic volume reduction correlating with secretory activity.

    Conclusions:

    • The interlobular space functions as a critical fluid reservoir for salivary secretion.
    • Fluid mobilization from the interlobular space is a key mechanism supporting saliva production, independent of immediate blood perfusion.
    • These findings enhance the understanding of salivary gland physiology and fluid transport mechanisms.
