  • Title: Relationship between serum-amylase activity and intraductal pressures in the rat parotid and submandibular salivary glands after administration of pilocarpine or isoprenaline.
    Author: Ikeno T, Ikeno K, Uno T.
    Journal: Arch Oral Biol; 1988; 33(6):403-6. PubMed ID: 2465755.
    Abstract:
    Ligation of the parotid ducts induced marked elevation of serum-amylase activity after administration of pilocarpine or isoprenaline. Secretion of saliva and serum-amylase activity increased most rapidly in the first 15 min after injection of pilocarpine, whereas isoprenaline induced a constant rate of secretion and serum-amylase activity over 120 min. Amylase activity in the serum was closely connected with intraductal pressure due to saliva secretion.
