IgA - Immunoglobin A
There are two immunoglobulins in exocrine secretions: lgA & lgE
Exocrine gland are the glands that secrete their products through the ducts, and discharges it into the external environment, to organs or the outside the body. Where as Endocrine gland have ducts that deliver the products in the superficial part of the body, such as the skin, or in the inner part where they are necessary such as the pancreatic juice that is carried into the intestine to aid digestion.
goblet cells
These two glands are found in the skin and are known as exocrine glands because they have a duct through which the substance travels.If they do not have a duct and secrete a substance directly into the blood they are called endocrine glands.
similar to sensory receptors in the body, they recognize a change in stimulus
Ciliary glands (Glands of Moll) are modified sweat glands in the eyelid which generally open into the eyelash follicles. Their exact function is not known, but they are hypothesized to be key in the combat of pathogenic microorganisms entering the eye because of bacteriolytic and immunoglobin components found in their secretions.
Scientists have found that toxic fugu have unique exocrine glands for the secretion of tetrodotoxin. The fish appear to actively produce the toxin, rather than passively acquire it from the environment.
There are five immunoglobulin classes (isotypes) of antibody molecules found in serum: IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE, and IgD. IgA (immunoglobulin A) IgD (immunoglobulin D) IgE (immunoglobulin E) IgG (immunoglobulin G) IgM (immunoglobulin M)
Immunoglobulin G; it makes up 80% of the Immunoglobulin content in the bloodstream
The immunoglobulin found in milk is IgA. Cows milk contains also other types of immunoglobulins, like IgG and, in a smaller amount, IgM. The amount ant types of immunoglobulin can be affected by diseases of the mammary gland.
Lysosome is found in the body secretions called ________ and __________. saliva and lacrimal fluid
In a single person there are seven major endocrine glands: Pineal gland (brain), pituitary gland (brain), pancreas (abdomen), thyroid gland (throat), thymus (chest), adrenal gland (abdomen), ovary in females (abdomen), and testis in males (groin). The exocrine glands are sweat glands, mammary glands, salivary glands, and the liver.
