24
Q

cell surface pH of gastric mucosal barrier

A

~7

25
Q

pH of gastric juice

A

1-2

26
Q

agents that disrupt gastric mucosal barrier

A 
weak acids (aspirin)
alcohols (EtOH)
NSAIDs (indomethacin)
detergents (bile salt/acids)
inflammation (H. pylori)
27
Q

most common cause of gastritis and peptic ulcer disease

A

H. pylori infection

28
Q

breakage of gastric mucosal barrier allows back diffusion of

A

H+ (damages tissue)

29
Q

____ strongly increases vascular permeability

A

HISTAMINE

30
Q

gastrin hormone MOA

A

endocrine, secretion

31
Q

gastrin releasing peptide MOA

A

neurocrine, action potential

32
Q

histamine MOA

A

paracrine, diffusion

33
Q

gastric mucosa cells produce _____ hormones

A

peptide

34
Q

Gastrin

A

prod by G cells, Antrum of stomach,

target parietal cell in stomach

stim acid secretion
stim pepsinogen secretion

35
Q

Somatostatin

A

prod by D cells

inhibits gastrin release

36
Q

cell source of gastrin releasing peptide

A

vagal nerve endings

*neurocrine not hormone

37
Q

CCK

A

source: duodenum and jejunum
target: pancreas and gallbladder

inc enzyme secretion, contraction

38
Q

secretin

A

source: duodenum
target: pancreas and gallbladder

inc HCO3- and fluid secretion by pancreatic and bile ducts

39
Q

gastrin releasing peptide

target/action

A

target: antrum

inc gastrin release

40
Q

somatostatin

A

source: stomach and duodenum
target: stomach, pancreas, liver

dec gastrin release, dec endocrine and exocrine secretions, dec bile flow

41
Q

gastrin inhibitory peptide

A

source: duodenum and jejunum
target: pancreas
action: dec fluid absorption

42
Q

site of B12 absorption

A

distal ileum

43
Q

cephalic phase

A

everything short of having food enter stomach

44
Q

2 paths by which vagus nerve exerts its effects

A

direct stim by ACh

indirect through gastrin

45
Q

gastric phase

A
  1. dissension of stomach –> activates stretch receptors and inc in pH –> chemoreceptors in mucosa

=mucin, lots of acid, pepsinogen are secreted.

  1. enteric NS + gastrin release –> smc contraction
46
Q

bulk of protein digestion occurs in the

A

SI

47
Q

resting pH of sotmach

A

1-2

48
Q

stimulated pH of stomach

A

> /=3

49
Q

H2 receptor blockers and PPIs reduce ___ secretion but have no effect on ___ production/action

A

H2 receptor blockers and PPIs reduce [H+] secretion but have no effect on [GASTRIN] production/action

50
Q

majority of chyme entering SI is ____mm

A

<1mm

51
Q

CCK and GIP are activated by the presence of

A

lipids and carbs

52
Q

secretin is activated by

A

dec pH

53
Q

intestinal phase

A

digestive prod and H+ move into SI

–> release of CCK, GIP, secretin (inhibit H+, pepsinogen, and stomach mixing, slow passage of chyme to SI which may be filled/overactive)

54
Q

duodenal stretch and chemoreceptors action on myenteric plexus

A

inhibition
