Q

How do the regulators of HCl production work?

A

They will either stimulate or inhibit the docking of a hydrogen potassium ATPase pump to the cell wall increasing or decreasing proton pumps activity

16
Q

What stimulates G cells to secrete gastin?

A

Protein rich meals and amino acids

17
Q

What does Gastrin released by G cells do?

A

Go into the circulation and influence ECL cells to increase histamine production and parietal cells to increase HCl

18
Q

What does increased histamine release by ECL do?

A

Signals the parietals cells to increase acid production

19
Q

What are the two main components of pancreatic secretions?

A
  • Bicarbonate

* Enzymes

20
Q

What is the function of the bicarbonate released by the pancreas?

A

To neutralize chyme

21
Q

What are the exocrine cells of the pancreas?

A

Acinar cells

22
Q

What are Acinar cells responsible for?

A

Production of pancreatic enzymes

23
Q

What are duct cells in the pancreas responsible for?

A

Bicarbonate secretion

24
Q

What does the pancreatic duct merge with?

A

The common bile duct

25
Q

What does the Sphincter of Oddi control?

A

The release of bile and pancreatic juice into the SI

26
Q

What increases secretin production from the SI?

A

High acidity

27
Q

What does SEcretin do?

A

Causes the pancreas to increase bicarbonate secretion

28
Q

What causes increased CKK secretion?

A

High protein meals

29
Q

How does increased CCK affect the pancreas?

A

It causes the pancreas to produce more enzymes
