Abstract

Presentation Description : This presentation will present the background on the lacrimal gland, the regulation of its secretion, and the cellular mechanisms used. The structure of the lacrimal gland, its secretory products and the mechanism of fluid and protein secretion will be reviewed. The innervation of this gland will be discussed along with the cellular signaling pathways used to induce protein secretion.

This abstract was presented at the 2019 ARVO Annual Meeting, held in Vancouver, Canada, April 28 - May 2, 2019.
