16
Q

(+) release of secretin

A

pH < 4.5 (acid), fat in the duodenum

17
Q

(-) release of secretin

A

high pH in the duodenum

18
Q

Secretin action

A

Releases pancreatic bicarbonate/enzymes/
H2O

Releases bile/bicarbonate

Decreases lower esophageal sphincter
(LES) tone

Decreases release of gastric acid

19
Q

Gastric antrum G cells

A

Gastrin

20
Q

(+) release of Gastrin

A

Stomach peptides/amino acids
Vagal input
Calcium

21
Q

(-) release of Gastrin

A

pH<3.0

Somatostatin

22
Q

Gastrin action

A

Release of HCl from parietal cells

Trophic effect on mucosa of the stomach
and small intestine

23
Q

Pancreatic D cells

A

Somatostatin

24
Q

(+) release of Somatostatin

A

Food

25
Q

Somatostatin action

A

(-) GI function

26
Q

Main small bowel nutritional source

A

Glutamine

27
Q

Main nutritional

source of the colon

A

Butyrate

28
Q

Site of Ca absorption

A

Duodenum actively, jejunum passively

29
Q

Site of iron absorption

A

Duodenum

30
Q

Site of vit B12 absorptiom

A

Terminal Ileum

31
Q

Controls gallbladder contraction

A

CCK

32
Q

Main constituents of bile

A

Water, phospholipids (lecithins), bile acids, cholesterol, and bilirubin

33
Q

Esophagus - type of muscle fibers

A

Upper third—striated muscle control of motor nerves

Middle third—mixed

Lower third—smooth muscle, primarily under control of vagal motor fibers

34
Q

Electrolytes which are actively actively absorbed by the colon

A

Na

Cl

35
Q

Electrolyte which is actively secreted by the colon

A

HCO3

36
Q

Electrolyte which is passively secreted by the colon

A

K

37
Q

Gastrocolic Reflex

A

Increased secretory and motor functions of the stomach result in increased colonic motility

38
Q

Blood supply to the liver

A

75% - from the portal vein, rich in products of digestion

25% - from the hepatic artery, rich in O2 (but each provide for 50% of oxygen)

39
Q

Peyer Patches

A

Nodules of lymphoid tissue with B and T lymphocytes in the small intestine that selectively sample lumenal antigens found in the terminal ileum
