AQP1 Corrects Acinar Cells’ Secretion Deficits in Sjögren's Disease

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by dry mouth, dry eyes, and profound fatigue. Preclinical studies suggest that AQP1 gene expression in salivary glands corrects salivary hypofunction in preclinical and clinical studies of radiation‐induced xerostomia and improves salivary and lacrimal function

Ion Channel Dysfunction and Therapeutic Targeting in Salivary Gland Disorders

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia represent major clinical complications of radiation therapy, autoimmune disorders such as Sjögren's disease, and inherited epithelial ion transport defects. This review integrates current knowledge on ion channel dysfunction as a central mechanistic driver of salivary gland pathology and ...
