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

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

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
