| 설명 | 정상적으로 아기를 낳은 산모에서는 뇌에서 젖분비호르몬(prolactin)의 분비가 증가하여 젖샘에서 젖을 만들게 된다. 이 때 젖의 분비를 촉진시키는 것으로는 아기가 젖을 빠는 행위 등이 있으며, 젖샘에서 생산된 모유는 젖샘관을 거쳐 젖꼭지를 통해 밖으로 나가게 된다. |

| salivary fistula | A pathologic communication between a salivary duct or gland and the cutaneous surface or the oral mucus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| salivary gland | Any of the saliva-secreting exocrine glands of the oral cavity. Synonym: glandula salivaria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salivary gland biopsy | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure which involves the removal of a small specimen of salivary gland tissue for microscopic analysis. Used in the diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome. Risks include localised bleeding, infection and injury to the facial nerve. (21 Mar 1998) |
| salivary gland calculi | Calculi occurring in a salivary gland. most salivary gland calculi occur in the submandibular gland, but can also occur in the parotid gland and in the sublingual and minor salivary glands. (12 Dec 1998) |
| salivary gland disease | Disorder of salivary glands; i.e., Sjogren's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salivary gland fistula | An abnormal passage between a salivary duct or gland and the cutaneous surface, or into the oral cavity through other than a normal pathway. (12 Dec 1998) |
| salivary gland hormone | <chemical> Chemical name: Parotin (12 Dec 1998) |
| salivary gland virus | A highly species-specific herpesvirus (cytomegalovirus) with particular affinity for the salivary gland tissue. Synonym: salivary gland virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salivary proteins | Proteins found in saliva and the salivary glands. These proteins show some enzymatic activity, but their composition varies in different individuals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| salivary virus | A highly species-specific herpesvirus (cytomegalovirus) with particular affinity for the salivary gland tissue. Synonym: salivary gland virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior salivary nucleus | A group of preganglionic parasympathetic motor neurons situated rostral and lateral to the inferior salivatory nucleus; it governs secretion of the lacrimal, sublingual, and submaxillary glands by way of the facial nerve and the sphenopalatine and submandibular ganglia. Synonym: nucleus salivatorius superior, superior salivary nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior salivary nucleus | A group of preganglionic parasympathetic motor neurons located in the reticular formation of the medulla oblongata dorsal to the nucleus ambiguus; its axons leave the brain with the glossopharyngeal nerve and govern secretion from the parotid gland by the intermediary of the ganglion oticum; cells of the inferior and superior nucleus are scattered and overlapping in lateral regions of the reticular formation. Synonym: nucleus salivatorius inferior, inferior salivary nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external salivary gland | <anatomy> A salivary gland situated in front of and below the ear. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lingual salivary gland depression | An indentation on the lingual surface of the mandible within which a portion of the submandibular gland lies; it appears radiographically as a sharply circumscribed ovoid radiolucency between the mandibular canal and the inferior border of the posterior mandible. Synonym: Stafne bone cyst, static bone cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ala major ossis sphenoidalis | Strong squamous processes extending in a broad superolateral curve from the body of the sphenoid bone. The greater wing presents these suraces (facies): 1) cerebral surface: forms anterior third of the floor of the lateral portions of the middle cranial fossa; 2) temporal surface: forms the deepest portion of the temporal fossa; 3) infratemporal surface, forms the "roof" of the infratemporal fossa; 4) orbital surface: forms posterolateral wall of orbit. The greater wing forms the inferior border of the supraorbital fissure, and is perforated at its root by foramina rotundum ovale, and spinosum and the pterygoid canal. Synonym: ala major ossis sphenoidalis, ala temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
