Q

Gastrin: where it’s secreted, stimuli, actions

A

Secreted by G cells of the stomach
Stimulated by small peptides and AA’s, distention of the stomach, and vagal stimulation via GRP
Actions: increase gastric H+ secretion, growth of gastric mucosa

Q

CCK: where it’s secreted, stimuli, actions

A

Secreted by I cells of the duodenum and jejunum
Stimulated by small peptides, AA’s, and FA’s
Actions: increase pancreatic enzyme and HCO3- secretion, contraction of gallbladder and relaxation of sphincter of Oddi, growth of exocrine pancreas and gallbladder, inhibits gastric emptying, paracrine signal

Q

Secretin: where it’s secreted, stimuli, actions

A

Secreted by S cells of the duodenum
Stimulated by H+ and FA’s in the duodenum
Actions: increase pancreatic and biliary HCO3- secretion, decrease gastric H+ secretion, inhibits gastrin, can act as paracrine signal

Q

GIP: where it’s secreted, stimuli, actions

A

Secreted by duodenum and jejunum
Stimulated by FA’s, AA’s, and oral glucose
Actions: increase insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells (incretin effect), decrease gastric H+ secretion

16
Q

Achalasia due to lack of:

A

VIP or NO

LES cannot fully relax

17
Q

Parasympathetic regulation of contractions

A

Gastrin and motilin

Increase AP and force of contractions

18
Q

Sympathetic regulation of contractions

A

Secretin and GIP

Decreases AP and force of contractions

19
Q

Factors that increase gastric emptying

A

Decrease distensibility
Increase force of peristaltic contractions of the caudad stomach
Decrease tone of pylorus
Increase diameter and inhibition of the segmenting contractions of the proximal duodenum

20
Q

Factors that inhibit gastric emptying

A

Relaxation of orad (increased distensibility)
Decrease force of peristaltic contractions
Increase tone of pyloric sphincter
Segmentation contractions in intestine (entero-gastric reflex)

21
