The salivary glands are believed to secrete hygroscopic material that is important
in enabling the unfed tick to absorb water from unsaturated air (Rudolph & Knülle
1974, 1978, McMullen et al., 1976). Needham and Teel review this topic in ...

Calcium and cAMP are important intracellular components regulating the
activities of many cells (Rasmussen 1981). The importance of Ca” concentration
in affecting modulators of salivary gland cytosolic PDE has already been
described.
