What are protein digestive enzymes (proteases) which are harmful to pancreatic cells released as? They also become active when they reach the doudenum?
Zymogens- inactive form
What cells have receptors for ACh, CCK, and secretin?
Pancreatic cells
What 2 GI hormones stimulate secretion of an enzyme and chloride-rich fluid?
ACh and CCK
What GI hormone stimulates the production of a bicarbonate-rich secretion?
Secretin
Increase in starch = _________ amylase
Increase
Increase in fat and protein = _______ in lipases and peptidases
