Gastric Phys Flashcards
What are the five gastric secretions?
Acid Pepsinogens Mucus IF Water
What does the oxyntic gland secrete?
HCl
What secretes gastrin?
Pyloric mucosa (specific region)
Describe the types of cells in a gastric gland starting most superficial
Surface epithelium
Mucous neck cells
Pareital cells (oxyntic)
Peptic (chief) cells
What is the alkaline tide?
Venous blood leaving stomach has higher pH than arterial because of bicarbonate after meal
Describe the cellular mechanism of acid secretion
CO2 made into HCO3- + H+ by CA. HCO3- diffuses into blood while H is secreted into the blood via a H/K ATPase (K inside).
Cl- is antiported inside when HCO3- leaves, and is then goes through channel into stomach.
Also note the regular Na/K ATPase.
H is secreted __ its electrical gradient and __ its concentration gradient
down electrical gradient
against concentration gradient
Cl is secreted __ its electrical gradient and __ its concentration gradient
against both
What are some substances that disrupt the stomach cell membranes?
ASA
EtOH
How do the concentrations gastric ion secretions change with secretory rate?
Cl and H go up with faster rate
K goes up slightly with increase
Na decreases with faster rate
Patients with chronic vomiting have what kind of ion and acid-base disorders?
hypokalemia and alkalosis
Describe non-meal state stomach secretions?
Low volume production
Isotonic to plasma
Describe acid-secreting state stomach secretions?
HCl and potassium
High volume
Parietal cell activity
What are the three secretogogues of acid secretion?
Gastrin
Histamine
ACh
How does gastrin stimulate acid secretion?
hormone!
CCKB receptor –> Gq/IP3 mechanism that stimulates H/K ATPase
