Q

What regulates gastrin secretion?

A

Stomach distention, alkinization, amino acids, peptides and vagal stimulation all increase gastrin flow.

Very low pH stops the release of gastrin.

Q

What does somatostatin do?

A

Decreases gastric acid and pepsinogen.
Decreases gall bladder contraction.
Decress insulin and glucagon release.

Stimulated by acid decreased by vagal tone.

Q

What does cholecystokinin do?

A

Increase pancreatic secretion
Gallbladder contraction
Decreases gastric emptying
Increases sphincter of oddi relaxation`

Fatty acids and amino acids increase cholecystokinin release!!!

Q

Where is secretin released from?

A

released from S cells in the duodenum leading to the release of HCO3- from the pancrease and slowing down of stomach emptyin.

also increases bile secretion.

Q

What are the endocrine and exocrine effects of glucose dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP)

A

Released by K cells in th duodenum
Exocrine: decreases gastric acid secretion.

Endocrine increases insulin secretion.

Q

Why does oral insulin release more glucose than IV insulin?

Q

What binds B12 and what creates it?

A

Intrinsic factor created from Parietal cells on the stomach.

Without it you get pernicious anemia.

Q

Where does gastrin exert most of its effects?

A

It can work directly on the parietal cells but it mostly works on the enterochromafin cells that produce histamine which greatly upregulat H+ secretion from the parietal cells.

What channel moves all sugars into the blood?

A

GLUT-2

18
Q

What are the main vitamins/minerals absoarbed in the small bowel?

A

Iron in the duodnum as Fe2+
Folate in the small bowel.
B12 i the ileum with bile salts requiring intrinsic factor.

19
Q

Where are peyer patches found?

A

These are found in the lamina propria and submucosa of ileum. Contain specialized M cells that sample material.

20
Q

What is the major antibody formed by B cells in the peyers patches?

A

IgA
