- Title
Neurotransmitter Control of Secretion.
- Authors
BAUM, B. J.
- Abstract
The article discusses the roles that neurotransmitters play in the control of salivary secretion, and it mentions how neural signals are transmitted to salivary gland acinar cells. Plasma membrane polyphosphoinositides and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) formation are examined, along with the activation of N or G proteins. The physiological aspects of salivary glands are assessed, as well as neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and acetylcholine.
