A

Gastric H+ secretion

18
Q

Candidate Hormones?

A

Motilin
Pancreatic polypeptide
Enteroglucagon

19
Q

Motilin
Site of secretion?
Stimuli for secretion?
Actions?

A

Upper duodenum
During fasting states
Increase gastrointestinal motility and initiate interdigestive myoelectric complexes that occur at 90 minute intervals

20
Q

Pancreatic Polypeptide
Site of secretion?
Stimuli for secretion?
Actions?

A

Pancreas
Response to ingestion of carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids.
Inhibits secretion of HCO3- and enzymes

21
Q

Enteroglucagon
Site of secretion?
Stimuli for secretion?
Actions?

A

Intestinal cells
Response to decrease in blood glucose
Directs the liver to increase glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis

22
Q

PARACRINES of GI??

A

Somatostatin and Histamine

23
Q

Somatostain
Site of secretion?
Stimuli for secretion?
Actions?

A

Secreted by D cells of gastrointestinal mucosa
In response to decreased luminal pH
Inhibits secretion of other GI hormones and inhibits gastric H+ secretion
**
— Don’t forget somatostatin is secreted by hypothalmus and by delta cells in pancreas

24
Q

Histamine
Site of secretion?
Stimuli for secretion?
Actions?

A

Secreted by endocrine-type cells of GI mucosa; in H+ secreting region of stomach
– Gastrin, ACh, and histamine stimulate H+ secretion by gastric parietal cells
