Components of Digestive Glands ◇small digestive glands: found in the wall of digestive tract. ◇accessory glands (large digestive glands): salivary glands pancreas liver
General Structure of Digestive Glands ◇Parenchyma: ( functional portion of an organ ) acini / gland cells ducts ◇Stroma: ( non-functional portion of an organ ) capsule CT inside the organ.

Salivary Glands striated/secretory duct The secretory ducts,which are continuous with the intercalated ducts,are wider and lined with a simple columnar epithelium. As the secretion from the acini passes through the secretory ducts,the epithelium can re-absorb sodium(Na+) and water from the lumen to the interstitium(间质)and transport potassium (K+) into the saliva,thus changing the consistency of the saliva. The secretory ducts drain into interlobular ducts which run between lobules.
Salivary Glands interlobular duct: pseudostratified columnar epith. excretory duct: stratified squamous epith.
Salivary glands include *Parotid G. *Submandibular G. * Sublingual G. Function: * moistening food. * carbohydrate digestion. * Secrete IgA.

Pancreas The pancreas is a lobular organ. The pancreas has both exocrine functions (releases digestive enzyme secretions into the intestines) and endocrine functions (releases hormones into the blood).
Pancreas Parenchyma endocrine gland exocrine gland produces hormones produces pancreatic juice

Exocrine Pancreas Here is another look at the Exocrine Pancreas and the Acini (white dotted lines) which make it up. Central Acinar Cells The yellow arrows are pointing to the characteristic centroacinar cells which are the key to identifying the pancreas. Notice how they stand out against the dark cells of the acini. Pancreas Acinus

Exocrine Pancreas • Ducts • Intercalated ducts: simple squamous • or cuboidal epith. • Interlobular ducts:columnar epith. • pancreatic ducts: tall columanr epth. (similar to salivary glands. REMEMBER: there are no striated ducts in the pancreas. ) major duodenal papilla
Exocrine Pancreas It releases the pancreatic juice. pancreatic juice contain many kinds of enzyme: * amylase(胰淀粉酶):hydrolyses starch & glycogen . * lipase(胰脂肪酶):hydrolyzes triglycerides(甘油三酯). into fattyacids and mono-glycerides(甘油单酯). * cholesterol esterase(胆固醇酯酶) :breaks down cholesterol esters(酯)into cholesterol and a fatty acid. * trypsin( 胰蛋白酶)and chymotrypsin(糜蛋白酶) : hydrolyze proteins. * ribonuclease(核糖核酸酶)& deoxyribonuclease(脱氧核 糖核酸酶):split nucleic acids.
Pancreas Endocrine Pancreas • Islets of Langerhansscatter throughout the exocrine pancreas. • Three types of cells : • A-cells(20%) glucagon • B-cells(75%) insulin • D-cells( 5% ) somatostatin • Capillaries:each islet is richly supplied with blood vessels.

Liver General Introduction *The largest gland (~ 2% of body weight in adult). * Respectively receives both venous & arterial blood through the portal V. (~75%) & hepatic A (~25%). * CT of capsule extended into the parenchyma, forming “classical” liver loblules. * Functions as an exocrine gland (secreting bile) and other very important roles.
