21
Q

2 portions of the gastric mucosa

A

folds (rugae) and pits (slits between the rugae. are opening of glands)

22
Q

cells and epith charact in the gastric mucosa

A

SIMPLE columnar epithelium: surface mucous cells (rugae and pits. pits = openings of glands) and secretory mucous cells (for glands extending within the LP)

23
Q

charact of the muscularis mucosa in the stomach

A

instead of 1 longitudinal layer, has inner circular and outer longitudinal

24
Q

charact of submucosa in stomach

A

Meissner’s plexus (PSS for glands)

25
Q

charact of tunica muscularis in stomach

A

inner oblique
middle circular
outer longit
(Auerbach’s plexus between middle and outer)

26
Q

serosa in stomach

A

visceral perit made of CT + layer of mesothelial cells (epith like but derived from mesothelium)

27
Q

cardia vs pylorus

A

cardia: pit to gland length is 1:1
pylorus: pit to gland length is 2:1

28
Q

cardia and pylorus: different mucous cells

A

surface mucous cells (surface and pit)

secretory mucous cells (glands)

29
Q

fundus and body pit to gland length ratio

A

1:3 (glands very long)

cardia is 1:1 and pylorus is 2:1 (pit longer)

30
Q

diff between glands in cardia/pylorus and fundus/body

A

fundus and body glands can’t branch and are straight

31
Q

ONLY thing mucosa of fundus/body has in common with mucosa in cardia/pylorus

A

both have pits that have surface mucous cells

32
Q

layer between pit and gland in fundus and body + fct

A

isthmus. has stem cells (mitosis). make all the cells in the epithelium

33
Q

other cell type in isthmus + why are diagnostic

A

parietal cells. also in the gland but not in pit. so parietal cell = isthmus and gland

34
Q

2 portions of the glands in body and fundus + their cell types

A

neck: mucous neck cells
base: parietal cells (oxyntic cells), zymogenic (chief) cells, endocrine cells

35
Q

mucous neck cell charact

A

columnar, pale, granular, foamy cytoplasm, produce mucin

36
Q

zymogenic (chief) cells charact

A

very basophilic

37
Q

parietal (oxyntic) cells charact

A

big, acidophilic, canaliculi

38
Q

surface mucous cells charact (EM)

A
  • microvilli
  • lot of mts
  • granules on apical side with neutral mucin + bicarb
39
Q

mucous neck cells charact (EM)

A
  • narrower apical side. wide base.

- acidic mucin that protects gland neck from enzymes of the base

40
Q

isthmus stem cells: how to diff from mucous neck cells

A

stem cells = no granules

mucous neck cells = granules

41
Q

zymogenic (chief) cells charact (EM)

A
  • granules that secrete zymogens (proenzymes) and enzymes: pepsinogen, lipases, rennin
  • tight junctions for enzymes not to go between cells
42
Q

rennin of zymogenic (chief) cells fct

A

enzyme that coagulates milk. important for digestion of milk in babies by pepsin and lipases

43
Q

enteroendocrine cells (argentaffin cells) charact (EM)

A

wider base. base is where stuff is secreted (inversed polarity): secretes granules towards LP

44
Q

hormones from enteroendocrine cells + 2 important

A

*gastrin (stim HCl from parital cells)
*Sts (inhibits HCl by parietal cells)
histamine
VIP
glucagon
serotonin

45
Q

parietal (oxyntic) cells charact (EM)

A

isthmus to base. large cytoplasm. 2 canaliculi. lot of microvilli, lot of mts

46
Q

parietal cells chemical processes happening

A
  • takes Cl- from base and puts it out in lumen (Cl-bicarb exchanger)
  • makes H+ from CA and puts it in lumen in exchange for K+ (bicarb made from CA taken out by Cl-bicarb exchanger)
47
Q

what drives the energy necessary for parietal cell secretions + summary of transporters

A

NaK ATPase on basal surface

base: NaK ATPase + Cl-bicarb exchanger
surface: H-K exchanger

48
Q

parietal cells other important secretion + clinical significance

A

make intrinsic factor for B12 abso. autoimmune disease where parietal cells destroyed = atrophic gastritis and pernicious anemia

49
Q

how to see surface (pit) cells on histo

A

(surface mucous cells) simple columnar, tall and nuclei at base

50
Q

how to see parietal cells on histo (isthmus and gland)

A

acidophilic cytoplasm, centeal nucleus

51
Q

stomach submucosa

A

dense irregular CT, Meissner’s plexus

52
Q

name of tumors of enteroendocrine cells

A

carcinoid tumors
