Alimentary system, peritoneum, omentum, mesentery, peritoneal cavity Flashcards
1
Q
Enteroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal system
A
- = enterochromaffine cells = argentaffin cells
- Affinity for silver stains
- true endocrine cells = Secrete products into the tissue and not into the gut lumen
2
Q
Enteroendocrine cells - neoplasms
A
- Carcinoids
3
Q
Enteroendocrine cell products - stomach
A
- Ghrelin
- Neuropeptide Y
- Somatostatin
- Enteroglucagon
- Histamine
- Endothelin
4
Q
Gastrin
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach and intestines
- Stimulates parietal cells to release HCl
- Increase motility
5
Q
Ghrelin
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Appetite regulator
6
Q
Neuropeptide Y
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Increase food intake
7
Q
Somatostatin
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Decrease rate of gastric emptying
- Decrease smooth muscle contractions and blood flow
within the intestine - Decrease release of gastrin, cholecystokinin, motion, secretin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, gastric inhibitory polypeptide
8
Q
Enteroglucagon
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Decrease release of pancreatic hormones
- Decrease exocrine secretory action of the pancreas
9
Q
Histamine
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Increase gastric acid secretion
10
Q
Endothelin
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach
- Smooth muscle contraction
11
Q
Glicentin
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach and intestines
- Increase glycogenolysis in the liver
12
Q
Glucagon
A
- Produced by neuroendocrine cells in the stomach and intestine
- Increase concentration of glucose in the blood
13
Q
Endoendocrine cell products - Intestine
A
- Serotonin
- Cholecystokinin
- Bombesin
- Secretin
- Enteroglucagon
- Enterogastrone - Brünner’s gland
- Fibroblast growth factor 19
- Substance P
- Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide
- Gastric inhibitory peptide = glucose dependent inhibitory peptide
- Motolin
- Peptide YY
- Neurotensin
- Glucagon-like peptide
- Urogastrone
- Oxyntomodulin
- Enkephalins
14
Q
Endoendocrine cell products - produced by stomach and intestine
A
- Glucagon
- Glicentin
- Gastrin
