GI Flashcards
1
Q
cholecystokinin (CCK)
A
- I cells (duodenum, jejunum)
- increases pancreatic secretion, gallbladder contraction, sphincter of Oddi relaxation
- decrease gastric emptying
- regulation: increased by FA and AA
2
Q
gastrin
A
- G cells (antrum of stomach)
- increases gastric H+ secretion, growth of gastric mucosa, gastric motility
- regulation: increased by stomach distention/alkalinization, AA, peptides, vagal stimulation; decreased by stomach pH
3
Q
glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP)
A
- K cells (duodenum, jejunum)
- exocrine: decreases H+ secretion
- endocrine: increases insulin release
- regulation: increased by fatty acids, aa, oral glucose
4
Q
motilin
A
- small intestine
- produces migrating motor complexes
- regulation: increases in fasting state
5
Q
secretin
A
- S cells (duodenum)
- increases pancreatic HCO3- secretion, bile secretion
- decreases gastric acid secretion
- regulation: increased by acid, FA in lumen of duodenum
6
Q
somatostatin
A
- D cells (pancreatic islets, GI mucosa)
- decreases gastric acid and pepsinogen secretion, pancreatic and small intestine fluid secretion, gallbladder contraction, insulin and glucagon release
- regulation: increased by acid, decreased by vagal stimulation
7
Q
nitric oxide
A
-increases smooth muscle relaxation including lower esophageal sphincter
8
Q
vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)
A
- parasympathetic ganglia in sphincters of gallbladder, small intestine
- increases intestinal water and electrolyte secretion, relaxation of intestinal smooth muscle and sphincters
- regulation: increased by distention and vagal stimulation; decreased by adrenergic input
9
Q
intrinsic factor
A
- parietal cells (stomach)
- vitamin B12 binding protein (uptake in ileum)
10
Q
gastric acid
A
- parietal cells (stomach)
- decrease stomach pH
- regulation: increased by histamine, ACh, gastrin; decreased by somatostatin, GIP, prostaglandin, secretin
11
Q
pepsin
A
- chief cells (stomach)
- protein digestion
- regulation: increased by vagal stimulation, local acid
12
Q
HCO3-
A
- mucosal cells (stomach, duodenum, salivary, pancreas)
- Brunner glands (duodenum)
- neutralize acids
- regulation: increased by biliary secretion w/ secretin
