GI Phys Gastric Secretion Flashcards

1
Q

What are the five secretory products of the stomach

A
  • Hydrogen Ion- This activates the conversion of Pepsinogen into Pepsin
  • Pepsinogens- Released by chief cells, chiefs fans have pep remember, gets converted to pepsin which helps digest proteins
  • Mucus- Lubricates food, released by mucus cells
  • Intrinsic factor- necessary for vit B12 absorption
  • Water- Dissolves and dilutes ingested material

Q

Aspirin and Ethanol do what to the potential difference?

A

Decrease it by disrupting cell membranes and leading to the separation of charges across the mucosa

Q

The concentration of what ions in gastric juice vary with the rate of secretion?

A

As secretion goes up, more Hydrogen ions are secreted and less Na is secreted

Q

Yes, Gatrin can stimulate the generation of H+ by itself, but what is its most important Acid generating function?

A

It stimulates the release of Histamine from Enterochromaffin-like cells

Q

Gastrin and Ach generate H+ secretion by raising levels of what inside the cell?

A

Ca2+ and IP3

17
Q

Histoamine raises levels of H+ secretion by doing what>

A

raising cAMP levels inside the cell

18
Q

The more you enjoy a meal, the more acid is secreted

A

ok

19
Q

What is the cephalic phase of acid secretion

A

WHen smell, taste, chewing, swallowing, and hypoglycemia trigger vagus nerve signals to stimulate acid release from the parietal cells and gastrin release from the G cells.

20
Q

KNOW….Gastrin is release from G cells into the bloodstream, it does not go straight to the parietal cells but rather travels through the liver and into the heart before being pumped out and sent to through the blood to the stomach.

A

ok

21
Q

Gastric phase of acid secretion

A

Distension and food in the stomach triggers acid secretion via Ach short and long reflex

22
Q

What is the stimulus for somatostatin release from D cells?

A

pH drops below 3

23
Q

Does somatostatin inhibit gastrin release directly?

A

yes…also directly inhibits acid secretion

24
Q

Secretin does what

A

Inhibts gastrin and acid

25
Q

WHat is the stimulus for Secretin release and where do the S cells lie?

A

Any acid stimulates secretin release since S cells are located in the duodenum

26
Q

What does GIP do?

A

Inhibits gastrin and acid….there is a good chart for all these mechanisms on slide 22

27
Q

Where are the K cells (GIP releasers) located and what stimulates GIP release?

A

Fatty acids stimulate GIP release

28
Q

4 ways that cells are set up to secrete acid

A

1) H/K ATPase
2) Carbonic anhydrase
3) Tubulovesicles
4) Negtive interior of cell

29
Q

Chronic vomitting

A

Metabolic alkalosis because you lose H+ (gastric acid)

30
Q

Chronic diarrhea

A

Metabolic acidosis…now you are losing mostly bicarbonate

31
Q

In teh stimulated stomach, does the oxyntic or non-oxyntic secretion predominate

A

oxyntic

32
Q

The cephalic phase of acid secretion is stimulated by

A

The vagus nerve
