Submucosal glands that secrete mucus are a characteristic of the respiratory system. These glands help to keep the airways moist and trap foreign particles to protect the lungs from damage or infection.
Submucosal glands secrete mucus, enzymes, and electrolytes that help protect and lubricate the mucosal lining of organs such as the respiratory and digestive systems. They play a crucial role in maintaining the health and function of these organs.

Submucosal hemorrhage refers to bleeding that occurs beneath the mucous membrane lining of an organ, such as the digestive tract. It is a type of internal bleeding that can be caused by trauma, inflammation, or certain medical conditions. Symptoms may include pain, swelling, and the presence of blood in the affected area.
The intestinal hormone that stimulates mucus secretion by the submucosal duodenal glands is called secretin. Secretin is released in response to acidic chyme entering the duodenum, signaling the pancreas to release bicarbonate-rich fluid to neutralize the acidity and protect the intestinal lining.
A duodenal submucosal mass is a growth or abnormal tissue located beneath the mucosal lining of the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine. These masses can be benign or malignant and may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, or bleeding. Further evaluation with imaging studies and possibly a biopsy may be needed for proper diagnosis and treatment.
