Q

how is stomach lumen made acidic

A

CO2 enters Parietal Cell combine w H2O -> carbonic acid
dissociates, H ion pumped out (H K pump)
Cl comes into cell w transfer of HCO3

H2O + H + Cl = HCl

Q

how is the hydrogen potassium ATPase pump regulated

A

Gastrin - from G cells, inc activity of pump, make lumen more acidic

Histamine

Acetylcholine - muscarinic receptor

^all stimulatory to pump

Prostaglandin - switches off mechanism

Q

what does prostaglandin do to the ATPase H K pump

A

switches mechanism off, cAMP to ATP, reduce acidity

Q

what inhibits gastric acid secretion

A

stop eating
increasing acidity, dec pH

acid in duodenum

  • enterogastric reflex
  • secretin release
  • GIP release

Q

what are Enterogastrones

A

hormones released from gland cells in duodenal mucosa

  • secretin
  • cholecystokinin (CCK)
  • GIP (gastric inhibitory peptide)

14
Q

why are enterogastrones release secretin, CCK, GIP)

A

in response to acid, FA or monogylcerides
act to prevent acid build up in duOdenum

  • inhibit gastric acid secretion
  • reduce gastric emptying

15
Q

describe pepsinogen secretion

A

secreted by Chief cells
pepsins inactivated at neutral pH

Low pH <3 pepsinogen → Pepsin

same as HCl secretion, H K ATPase pump

Q

what is a zymogen

A

inactive precursor, prevents cellular digestion

17
Q

what is pepsin

A

stomach enzyme

digest proteins found in ingested food

18
Q

what is the gastric mucus produced by

A

surface epithelial cells + mucus neck cells

19
Q

what is the function of gastric mucus

A

protects surface

neutral pH → protect against gastric acid corrosion + pepsin digestion

20
Q

what is intrinsic factor produced by and its function

A

produced by parietal cells

for B12 absorption

21
Q

where is intrinsic factor/B12 complex absorbed

A

ileum
