Q

Cells in crypts

A

goblet cells, paneth cells, EE (open and closed)

21
Q

goblet cells

A

unicellular with no microvilli. Number increases distally down the intestine

22
Q

Paneth cells

A

at the base of crypt. Antimicrobial eosinophilic granules.

23
Q

EE open vs closed (in crypts of SI)

A

open: surface is exposed to lumen. Both have granules at the basal end.

24
Q

Villi specializations

A

SM, epithelia, and lymphatic capillaries

25
Q

SM in villi

A

located in lamina propria, help contract lymph

26
Q

Epithelia in Villi

A

microvilli, terminal bars. Simple columnar. Also contain glycoxalyx, which concentrate enzymes.

27
Q

Lympathics in Villi

A

absorb lipids, shuttle to laima propria

28
Q

Duodenum characteristics

A

villiform, Brunner glands

29
Q

Brunner glands

A

submucosal glands that neutralize chyme with alkaline secretions

30
Q

Jejunum

A

contains place circulates and teniae coli, NO GLANDS

31
Q

plicae circulares

A

infoldings of submucosa

32
Q

Ileum

A

can have some place. Contains lymphocytes and peyers patch (with M cells)

33
Q

Colon

A

no villi, crypts, lots of goblet, EE

34
Q

Appendix

A

lymphocytes, no villi, crypts

35
Q

Liver functions

A

metabolic, exocrine, endocrine

36
Q

Liver structure

A

highly cellular, CT capsule, hexagonal lobules, which contain central vein and dual blood supply

37
Q

sinusoids of liver

A

discontinuous epithelium, reticular fibers, overlie Disse region, blood flow

38
Q

Cells in liver

A

hepatocytes, kuffer, Ito

39
Q

Bile caniculi

A

located in between hepatocytes, move bile towards duct

40
Q

Kuffer cells

A

macrophages that can move freely on the lumen side

41
Q

Ito cells

A

store vitamin A, activated by damage

42
Q

Portal tract components

A

Portal vein, hepatic artery, bile duct, lymphatics (sometimes)

43
Q

Liver lobule types

A

classic, portal accinus

central vein, triangle from ducts, between central veins (oval)

44
Q

Gall Bladder

A

bile storage/concentration, no MM/submucosa, no goblet, contains false glands

45
Q

false glands

A

continuous with lumen, located in gallbladder

46
Q

Hormones that act on gallbladder/pancreas

A

CCK-contraction

Secretin-Bicarbonate secretion

47
Q

Epithelium of gallbladder

A

simple columnar. They concentrate bile by creating osmotic gradient and absorbing h2o

48
Q

Pancreas exocrine function

A

highly lobulated with septa, contains serous acini which contain zymogen granules. Has inter and intralobular ducts
