3.1.3 GI Hormones Flashcards
What is the oral phase of digestion?
mastication, starch digestion, swallow
Describe the duodenal phase
most pancreatic secretions, secretin release, suppression of acid production (inhibit parietal/ECL cells)
What is the small intestine phase?
absorption of nutrients and water/ions, release of peptide YY to inhibit gastric functions
What is the esophageal phase?
peristalsis, relaxation of UES and LES
Describe the duodenal regulation of pancreatic HCO3- secretions. Focus on the role of one particular enzyme and what are the stimulators
What is the role of serotonin in the GI tract?
Modulation of intestinal motility
What is the cephalic phase?
sight, small, taste, thought of food → saliva, acid, pancreatic secretions, gallbladder contractions
Where does gastrin travel to ellicit its action?
travels to oxyntic mucosa to stimulate production of acid by parietal cell
Also acts on ECL cells to activate histamine, which also activates parietal cells
Draw a chart of the gastric phase of digestion
What is the role of somatostatin in the oxyntic mucosa?
Reduce histamine release
Reduce HCl secretion
Reduce pepsin secretion
Gastrin producing G cells are where?
Antrum
What induces gastrin secretion?
Antrum distension
Gastrin releasing peptide
Fat, protein and AAs
Lumen neutralization
How does somatostatin affect insulin?
Inhibits it
What are enterogastrones? What are some examples?
Hormones that inhibit stomach processes
Ex. CCK and secretin
