Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed fluid secretion from salivary gland under hypotonic condition to investigate mechanobiology. Saliva secretion was increased under hypotonic condition due to functional upregulation of ion transporter located in basolateral membrane of acinar cells. On the other hand, anion channel in apical membrane was inhibited by tannic acid and substances containing it. As a result, fluid secretion was decreased. For the recovery of the function of fluid secretion, the activation of ion transporters might become a new tool.
