The autonomic nervous system regulates the secretion of bioactive proteins and peptides from salivary glands that can be important in systemic physiological responses. The prohormone submandibular rat-1, which is highly expressed in rat submandibular glands, can be cleaved to produce polypeptides with analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. Human genes related to submandibular rat-1 have conserved biological functions and are potentially important in pain suppression, erectile function, and inflammation. In this study we describe the differential expression and posttranslational modification of submandibular rat-1 protein in salivary glands, the urogenital tract, lung, blood, and saliva in male Sprague-Dawley and Brown Norway rats. Submandibular rat-1 protein is secreted into saliva after the administration of beta-adrenergic or cholinergic agonists. Removal of the sympathetic ganglion that innervates the salivary glands results in increased levels of submandibular rat-1 protein in salivary glands. The secretion of submandibular rat-1 in response to physiological stress may provide a large pool of submandibular rat-1-derived peptide products that can promote analgesia and decrease inflammation locally and systemically. This pathway may be conserved among mammals and may constitute an important anti-inflammatory and analgesic response to stress.
