摘要：

This presentation considers the vulnerability of the upper alimentary and respiratory tracts to environmental insults during aging. A specific example, salivary gland secretion, is discussed. Available data suggest that while aging per se does not affect salivary performance adversely, it does appear to compromise the glands in such a way that older persons are more vulnerable to exogenous factors that can reduce secretory capacity and, consequently, diminish oropharyngeal health.
