cholestasis
reduction of bile flow, elevated serum bilirubin and alk phos
what two things comprise the enteric nervous system of the GI tract
submucosal plexus (Meissner’s) and myenteric plexus (Auerbach’s)
Myenteric (Auerbach’s) Plexus does
motility
Submucosal (Meissner’s) Plexus does
secretion and blood flow
gastric H is stimulated by
histamine
gastrin comes from
G cells
CCK in the duodenum/jejunum comes from
I cells
secretin in the duodenum/jejunum comes from
S cells
paracrines
somatostatin, histamine
somatostatin
inhibits GI hormone release and acid secretion
histamine
stimulates gastric H secretion
enkephalins
stimulate GI contraction at sphincters, stop fluid and electrolyte release
pepsinogen is secreted by
chief cells
parietal cells secrete
HCL and IF
B12 is absorbed in the
terminal ileum
iron is absorbed in the
duodenum
carbs and amino acids are absorbed in the
duodenum and jejunum
bile salts are absorbed in the
terminal ileum
difference b/w the common hepatic duct and the common bile duct
common bile duct comes after the cystic duct from the gall bladder has joined with the common hepatic duct
primary bile acids
synthesized from cholesterol…cholic and chenodeoxycholic acid
secondary bile acids
converted from primary bile acids by bacteria in intestines…deoxycholic and lithocholic acids
bile acids are conjugated w/ ___ to form
glycine or taurine to form bile salts
bilirubin comes from
RBCs that have died
bile acids are synthesized in the
liver
the rate limiting step in bile acid synthesis is
the introduction of a hydroxyl group at Carbon 7 of the steroid ring by 7-alpha-hydroxylase which is inhibited by cholic acid
function of bile acids
emulsifying agents in the intestine helping to prepare dietary triglycerides and other complex lipids for degradation by pancreatic enzymes
function of bile salts
provide only significant mechanism for cholesterol excretion
hepatitis A
children, fecal oral, no carrier or chronic state
Hep B
blood born, maternal/fetal, acute and chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis which may lead to hepatic carcinoma
Hep C
blood born, chronic, cirrhosis in 5-10 years, risk for hepatic cancer
Wilson’s Dz (copper) can cause
cirrhosis
cholelithiasis
female, fat, forty, fertile
all amino acids are absorbed by
Na dependent cotransport
describe right lymphatic drainage
upper right half of body only…right lymphatic duct drains to right subclavian
describe left lymphatic drainage
drains most of the body. cysterna chyli drains lower half, joins thoracic duct and then drained to left subclavian

major storage site of Vit E is
fat
most potent form of tocopherol (vit E)
alpha tocopherol
storage of vitamin A
in the liver as retinyl palmitate
vitamin D process in skin
uv light converts 7-hydroxycholesterol to cholecalciferol (D3)
vitamin D process in liver
cholecalciferol (D3) from skin is turned to 25-hydryo-D3 by 25-hydrozylase enzyme
vitamin D process in kidney
25-hydro-D3 has two potential pathways. To take more Ca into bone and lower serum Ca 24-hydroxylase with turn 25-hydro-D3to 24,25-Dihydro-D3…to take calcium out of bone and increase serum Ca 1-alpha-hydrozylase will turn 25-hydro-D3 to 1,25-Dihydro-D3
what does PTH do to affect Ca
inactivates 24-hydroxylase enzyme in the kidney so that less calcium is taken from blood to bone
what micromineral is needed to metabolize alchohol
zinc
what micromineral is used in muscle contraction
magnesium
glutathione is preserved by
ascorbate
