what type of salivary glands are associated with circumvallate and foliate papillae
serous glands
what are the three major salivary glands
parotid, sublingual, submandibular
in what layer of the alimentary canal would you find minor salivary glands
submucosa
in major salivary glands what type of acini is protein secreting, has a round nucleus (euchromatic), lots of RER and secretory granules stain w/eosin
serous acini
in the major salivary glands what type of acini has a flattened nuclei at base of cell that is heterochromatic and are usually columnar
mucous acini
what is the cap on top of a mucous acini called
serous demilune
what structure is located on the basal lamina beneath secretory cells and aids in expulsion of saliva
myoepithelial cell
trace the order of ducts from a salivary gland to the lumen
intercalated duct, striated duct, intralobular collecting duct (not always present), interlovular ducts, main excretory duct
what type of epithelium would be found in intercalated ducts
low simple cuboidal epithelium
what type of epithelium would be found in striated ducts
tall simple comumnar with eosinophilic basal striations
what causes the basal striations in striated ducts
mitochondria at infoldings
which part of the salivary duct changes the composition of saliva, making it hypotonic, by removing NaCl
striated ducts
what type of epithelium would be found in intralovular collecting ducts
simple columnar without basal striations
what type of epithelium would be found in interlobular ducts and main excertory ducts
stratified cuboidal, distally changes to stratified squamous
what is the effect of sympathetic stimulation to salivary glands
low volume, high protein content
what is the effect of parasympathetic stimulation to salivary glands
high volume, low protein content
what type of acini are in the parotid gland
mostly serous acini
what type of acini are in the submandibular gland
serous and mucous acini
what type of acini are in the sublingual gland
mostly mucous acini
would you see many striated ducts in minor salivary glands
rarely
most minor salivary glands are
mucus secreting
what allows the striated ductal cells to make saliva hypotonic and alkaline
Na/K ATPase
what is in the connective tissue surrounding salivary lobules that aids in immunity
lymphocytes and plasma cells (make IgA)
