Q

what is segmentation? and how is it regulated?

A

mixes chyme and brings into contact with intestinal epithelium
-regulated by pacemaker cells in smooth muscle layer (cells of Cajal), hormones, ENS, and ANS

  • gastroileal reflex stim segmentation intensity

Q

regulation of pancreatic secretions:

A

1) neural- vagus nerve inputs
2) hormones (predominant)-

  • CCK- stim by fats and prots- affects acinar cells- release enzymes
  • secretin- stim by acid- affects duct cells- bicarbonate release- further effects CCK

Q

all nutrients except __ are first sent to the liver

A

fat

29
Q

main fxn of liver

A
  • metabolize/detox compound

- make bile

30
Q

fxnal unit of liver

A

hepatic lobules

31
Q

capillaries of liver

A

hepatic sinusoids

32
Q

fxn of hepatic sinusoids?

A

bring bile back to liver for recycling

33
Q

where is bile taken out of liver?

A

bile canalculi (form bile duct)

34
Q

what is bile made of?

A
  • phospholipids (lecithin)
  • bicarbonate
  • cholesterol
  • bile pigments
  • bile salts
35
Q

what do hepatocytes synthesize?

A

bile salts (from cholesterol) and lechithin

36
Q

where is bicarbonate released from?

A

duct cells

37
Q

sphincter of oddi

A

where common bile duct enters duodenum

38
Q

where is bile stored?

A

gallbladder

39
Q

what stimulates release of CCK?

A

fatty acids

40
Q

fxn of CCK

A
  • stim gallbladder –> bile to duodenum

- relaxes sphincter of oddi to allow

41
Q

what does secretin regulate? stimulated by?

A
  • bicarbonate secretion

- acid

42
Q

where (organs) is bicarbonate released from?

A

pancreas and bile duct

43
Q

enterohepatic circulation

A

bile salts enter duodenum via oddi
-bile salts back into circulation from ileum

-returned to liver via hepatic portal vein

44
Q

how is cholesterol excreted?

A

in bile

45
Q

what role does fiber play in bile?

A
  • binds to bile
  • bile not able to be recycles
  • inc bile in feces
  • dec plasma cholesterol (liver needs to make more)
46
Q

bilirubin

A
  • bile pigment

- made from hemoglobin of digested RBC

47
Q

how is bilirubin excreted?

A

urine or feces

48
Q

jaundice

A
  • inc bilirubin in tissues, mucus membranes, and eyes

- blocked common bile duct
