- h20, alcohol, lipid soluble drugs, salts
gastric bypass surgery also known as

pepsinogen and gastric lipase
what do gastric juices have
digestive enzymes (pepsinogen, gastric lipase), HCl, mucus, IF
pepsinogen becomes ____ in the presence of ____
pepsin, HCl
pepsin function
protein breakdown
gastric lipase works on
butterfat
- weak bc very acidic
mucus is ___
alkaline
mucus function in stomach
prevents pepsin from breaking down stomach wall lining
hormone released by stomach cells that inhibit acid secretions
somatostatin
hormone that suppresses somatostatin and stimulates gastric secretions
acetylcholine
acetylcholine is released from where
vagus nerve
vagus nerve is part of which system?
parasympathetic system
hormone that increases gastric secretions?
gastrin
hormone released as a result of gastrin and parasympathetic secretions, resulting in more gastric secretions
histamine
three stages of gastric secretions
cephalic, gastric, intestinal
gastric functions: cephalic
causes gastric secretion at the taste, smell, sight or thought of food
gastric functions: gastric
distention of stomach due to presence of food
gastric function (gastric stage) caused by
pH
gastric functions: intestinal
occurs when food enters intestine, initially promotes secretion of gastric juice
____ causes decrease in gastric motility
cholecystokinin (signals fat emulsification by bile)
this reflex results in inhibiting peristalsis and slowing intestinal filling
enterogastric reflex
