Q

what triggers gastrin release from the g cells in teh antrum?

A

seeing food or stomach distention causes vagal stimulation, causing gastrin releasing peptide, aromatic AA in the lumen

21
Q

What happens upon parietal stimulation?

A

tubulovesicular membranes fuse with canalicular membranes increasing the density of H+, K+ ATPase molecules at the apical membrane.

22
Q

Describe the ion transport of the parietal cells

A

Protons are made in the cytosol and pumped out via - H+, K+ ATPase into the lumen, bicarb in exported in from the basolateral (blood) side by vesiscular fusion/CH/HCO3 exchanger and enters blood stream

23
Q

How does Cl move during parietal cell stimulation>

A

passive from basolateral side to lumen, water follows

24
Q

What is the electrical potential exists across the gastric mucosa at rest? during activation?

A

-70, -30

25
Q

What inhibits gastrin release?

A

somatostatin which is secreted from D cells in the atrum when the pH is <3

26
Q

What happens during the gastric phase?

A

You get an icnrease in pH due to food which decreases somatosatin secretion

27
Q

what does somatisatin inhibit?

A

Inhibits formation of cAMP(prostiglandins also do this) via a Gi-dependent signaling pathway in parietal cells,
indirectly inhibits ECL secretion of histamine,
G cells release of gastrin

28
Q

What does the feedback from the duodenum do to parietal cells

A

nervous reflux blocks activation of parietal cells, enterogastrones like secretin block secretion of histamine by ECL cells

29
Q

What is the Interdigestive Phase

A

Low acid secretion, D cells secrete somatostatin to maintain low levels of Gastrin

30
Q

Cephalic Phase

A

dorsal vagal complex integrates input from higher centers (seeing and tasting food) to activate Vagus nerves. GRP activates gastrin release and Ach activates ECL and parietal cells.

31
Q

Gastric Phase

A

distension of the stomach activates vagal afferents and the enteric nervous system. Amino acids activate gastrin secretion and food raises pH decreasing somatostatin secretion.

32
Q

Intestinal Phase

A

introduction of the gastric contents into the small intestine activates duodenal G cell secretion of gastrin. Activation of secretin and other enterogastrones and neural reflex decreases secretion.

33
Q

Do PPI have an effect on intrsic factor?

A

NO! can still absorb b12

34
Q

What can cause a lack of B12 absoportion

A

autoimmune destriction of parietal cells, BYPASS SURGERY! can get megablastic anemia and neurological defects

35
Q

What secretes pepsinogen? in response to what

A

chief cells, AcH and gastrin,

36
Q

what inhibits pepsingen secretion?

A

secretin

37
Q

what kind of molecule is pepsinogen

A

inactive prozyme proteases, activated by acid

38
Q

what kind of molecule is pepsin

A

endopeptidase, can further activate pepsinogen by autolysis

39
Q

What do surface epithelial cells secrete?

A

mucus and bicarb in response to PGE2

40
Q

What effect does NSAIDS have on muscus seretion?

A

It decreases it since it blocks PGE2, this contributes to gastric irritation

41
Q

What can catecholamines do to gastric mucosa?

A

suppress bicarb secretion, this contributes to gastric ulcers- STRESS ULCERS!

42
Q

How do you regenerate disrupted epitheloum?

A

by using trefoil factors and growth factors

43
Q

What is Zollinger Ellison Syndrome?

A

its a gastrin secreting tumor in the pancrease or intestine, excess H secretion as well as hyperplasia and hypertrophy of parietal cells, treat with PPi?

44
Q

Peptic ulcer disease is due to?

A

hyperacidity, deterioration of the gastro musocsal barrier, get increase bleeding,

45
Q

Some causes of gastric and duedenal ulcers

A

Infection – Helicobactor pylori
Poor secretion of mucus, bicarbonate by the surface epithelium
Stress (may contribute but doesn’t cause)
Irritation by alcohol, acid, digestive enzymes, bile

46
Q

Tx ulcers with>

A

antibiotics (amoc/cipro) and proton pump inhibitor. Stop NSAID

47
Q

what is the pathophysiology of peptic ulcers?

A

increased gastin levels because somatostain is not active in fasting state, causes increase acid, pepsin, hyperplasa of ECL cells,

48
Q

Peptic ulcers in patients with hypochlohydria is related to?

A

gastritis and destruction of gastric epithelial cells, decrease of acid production?

49
Q

Achlorhydria is due to

A

reduced acid secretion, caused by aging, autoimmune attack of H/K atpase, PPI, infection, atropic gastritis,

50
Q

Side effects of achlorhydria?

A

increase bacteria growth, HIP fractures due to decrease CA, FE def anemia, decreased pep, increased diarrhea
