Q

3 stomach defenses against acid

A
  1. mucin layer produced by foveolar cells
  2. bicarb secretion by surface epithelium
  3. normal blood supply (provides nutrients and picks up leaked acid)

Q

Why does severe burn –> acute gastritis (curling ulcer)?

A

Q

why does increased intracranial pressure –> acute gastritis (cushing ulcer)?

A

increased stimulation of vagus nerve –> increased ACh –> stimulates parietal cell to produce more HCl
