| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to clarify the role of parasympathetic blood flow increase in salivary glands in salivary secretion. Experiments using rats showed that the glandular blood flow increase caused by the stimulation of the lingual nerve (LN) was larger in the submandibular gland (SMG) and sublingual gland (SLG) than in the parotid gland (PG), and significant salivary secretion was observed from the SMG / SLG. The glandular blood flow increase caused by the LN stimulation was inhibited approximately 60 to 70% by NO synthase inhibitor. Further, mixed saliva from SMG / SLG and saliva form PG were inhibited approximately 33% and 73%, respectively. Therefore, it was suggested that glandular blood flow increase corresponding to secretory activity was induced in reflex salivary secretion, and salivary secretion and glandular blood flow increase were coordinately regulated. It was also thought that the glandular blood flow increase is extremely important in salivation.
