B5-095 GI Physiology II Flashcards
describe pancreatic morphology
acinar + ductal cells = acinus
multiple acini =lobule
multiple lobules -> main pancreatic duct
how does secretin affect the amount of HCO3-, Cl- and amylase
HCO3-: increase
Cl-: decrease
amylase: decrease
the fall in amylase concentration after secretin reflects
dilution
volume increases
stimulate acinar cell secretion of zymogen granules
5
- VIP
- secretin
- CCK
- ACh
- maybe gastrin?
Ca++ oscillations are a hallmark of stimulation by
2
CCK and ACh
potent stimulators of Cl- secretion
2
CCK and ACh
the movement of […] into the lumen makes transepithelial voltage more negative, driving […} into the lumen via tight junctions
Cl-
Na+
most powerful stimulus for HCO3- secretion
secretin
activates cAMP, stimulates PKA, and phosphorylates CFTR
secretin
activates Gq -> stimulates PLC to release DAG and IP3, releasing Ca++ from stores
ACh
the lumen negative voltage pulls Na+ and water into the lumen via
tight junctions
zymogens secreted by pancreas
5
- trypsinogen
- chymotrypsinogen
- proelastase
- Procarboxypeptidase A
- Procarboxypeptidase B
activates trypsinogen to trypsin
enterokinase
and trypisin can too
activates a majority of the zymogens in a sequential fashion
trypsin
stimulant of cephalic pancreatic secretion
sight
smell taste
mastication
regulatory pathway of the cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion
vagal pathways
the cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion is responsible for […]% of secretions
25
stimulant for the gastric phase of pancreatic secretion
distension
gastrin?
regulatory pathway for the gastric phase of pancreatic secretion
vagal-cholinergic
the gastric phase of pancreatic secretion is responsible for […]% of secretion
10-20
stimulant of the intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion
amino acids
fatty acids
H+
regulatory pathway of the intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion
CCK
secretin
enteropancreatic reflexes
the intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion is responsible for […]% of secretions
50-80
protein and lipid products simulate I cells to secrete
CCK
stimulates vagus nerve to release ACh
H+ stimulates S cells in duodenum to secrete
secretin
stimulates HCO3- secretion
how does this mechanism protect the pancreas from autodigestion?
packaging of many digestive proteins as zymogens
percursor proteins lack enzymatic activity
how does this mechanism protect the pancreas from autodigestion?
selective sorting of secretory proteins and storage in zymogen granules
restricts the interaction of secretory proteins with other cellular compartments
how does this mechanism protect the pancreas from autodigestion?
protease inhibitors in the zymogen granule
block the action of prematurely activated enzymes
how does this mechanism protect the pancreas from autodigestion?
condensation of secretory proteins at low pH
limits the activity of active enzymes
how does this mechanism protect the pancreas from autodigestion?
non digestive proteases
degrade active enzymes
morphology of salivary glands
acinar cells line acinus
intercalated cells line acinar duct
striated cells line striated duct
parasympathetic autonomic control of salivation is regulated by
ACh
sympathetic autonomic control of salivation is regulated by
norepinephrine
what two components of saliva contribute to lubrication and antimicrobial properties?
proline-rich proteins
mucin glycoproteins
enzymes present in saliva
4
- a amylase
- lipase
- ribonuclease
- kallikrein
how does the electrolyte composition of saliva change with stimulation?
Na:
K:
Cl:
Total CO2:
Na: increases
K: decreases
Cl: increases
bicarb: increases
basically creates a more basic environment
does the large inestine have villi?
no
does the large intestine provide nutrient absorption?
no
does the small or large intestine have active K+ secretion?
large
