GI Hormones Flashcards
decrease gastric emptying
Cholecystokinin
secreted by I cells (duodenum, jejunum)
Cholecystokinin
this hormone secretion is inhibited when stomach pH < 1.5
gastrin
this hormone secretion is inhibited by vagal stimulation
somatostatin
pepsin secretion is upregulated by these 2 factors:
vagal stimulation, local acid
this hormone secretion is inhibited by adrenergic input
VIP
decrease insulin and glucagon release
Somatostatin
what is a VIPoma?
non-α, non-β islet cell pancreatic tumor that secretes VIP -> copious watery diarrhea -> Hypokalemia -> Achlorhydria WDHA syndrome
gastric acid secretion
upregulated by these 3 factors:
downregulated by these 4 factors:
up: Histamine***, ACh, Gastrin (via ECL cells -> histamine)
down: somatostatin, GIP, prostaglandin (misoprostol), secretin
secreted by Parasympathetic ganglia in sphincters, gallbladder, small intestine
VIP
increase gastric motility
Gastrin
decrease pepsinogen secretion
Somatostatin
increase smooth muscle relaxation, including lower esophageal sphincter (LES)
NO
Loss of NO secretion is implicated in increased LES tone of achalasia.
secreted by Small intestine
motilin
this hormone secretion is stimulated during fasting states
motilin
decrease gall bladder contraction
Somatostatin
increase relaxation of intestinal smooth muscle and sphincters
VIP
