Fiser ABSITE Ch. 32 Gallbladder Flashcards
the gallbladder lies between these 2 liver segments
segment 4 and 5
cystic artery is a branch off of this
right hepatic artery
name the boundaries of callot triangle
cystic duct laterally, common bile duct medially, liver superior
these arteries were considered longitudinal blood supply to the hepatic and common bile duct, lies in a 3 and 9:00 position
right hepatic, retroduodenal, (branches of gastroduodenal artery)
where the cystic veins drain
right branch of the portal vein and into the liver
where the biliary lymphatics located with respect to the common bile duct
right side
name the parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation to gallbladder
parasympathetic: Left (anterior) the trunk of the vagus, sympathetic from T7-T10
which epithelial layer as the gallbladder lack compared to the rest of the GI tract
no submucosa
this hormone relaxes the sphincter of oddi
glucagon
give the normal size for: common bile duct, gallbladder wall, pancreatic duct
common bile duct -less than 8 mm; Gallbladder wall - less than 4 mm; pancreatic duct - less than 4 mm
where is the highest concentration of CCK and secretin cells
duodenum
these are invagination of the epithelium of the wall of the gallbladder, formed by increased gallbladder pressure
Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses
name 3 things that increase bile excretion
CCK, Secretin, Vagal input
name 3 things that decrease bile excretion
VIP, Somatostatin, Sympathetics
name 3 essential functions of bile
fat-soluble vitamin absorption, bilirubin excretion, cholesterol excretion
where does bile become concentrated and how
in the gallbladder, resorption of sodium and water
where does the active resorption of conjugated bile acids occur
terminal ileum
name the 2 cells which secrete bile
bilateral canalicular cells, 20%; hepatic sites, 80%
we gives bile its green color
conjugated bilirubin
this is a breakdown product of conjugated bilirubin in the gut, it gives stool a brown color
stercobilin
breakdown product of conjugated bilirubin, gives urine its yellow color
urobilin
this is the rate limiting step in cholesterol synthesis
HMG coA reductase
name the 2 enzymes in bile acids synthesis
HMG coA reductase, 7-alpha- hydroxylase
give cause of cholesterol stone formation in thin versus overweight people
thin, underactive 7-alpha- hydroxylase; overweight, overactive HMG coA reductase
name 4 factors that increased cholesterol insoluabilization
1) stasis 2) calcium nucleation 3) increased water absorption in the gallbladder 4) decreased lecithin and bile acids
