OBJECTIVE: Salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia represent major clinical complications of radiation therapy, autoimmune disorders such as Sjögren's disease, and inherited epithelial ion transport defects. This review integrates current knowledge on ion channel dysfunction as a central mechanistic driver of salivary gland pathology and evaluates promising ion channel-targeted therapeutic strategies.
METHODS: A comprehensive narrative review was performed using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science to identify experimental, translational, and clinical studies on ion channel regulation in salivary gland physiology and disease.
RESULTS: Salivary secretion depends on coordinated Ca2+ signaling and polarized ion transport in acinar and ductal cells. Across radiation injury, Sjögren's disease, and cystic fibrosis, disease-specific disruptions of calcium entry, chloride conductance, and water channel trafficking converge on impaired fluid secretion through distinct but mechanistically overlapping pathways. These insights have driven targeted therapies, including muscarinic agonists, ANO1 and CFTR modulators, anti-inflammatory strategies, and AAV2-hAQP1 gene therapy, which shows sustained benefit in radiation-induced xerostomia.
CONCLUSIONS: Ion channels are central regulators of salivary gland physiology and promising therapeutic targets, and combining pharmacologic, gene, and regenerative approaches provides a precision strategy to restore salivary gland function.
