GI Secretions Flashcards
what secretion is in saliva
HCO3- K+ hypotonic α amylase lingual lipase
what increase salivary secretion
parasympathetic & sympathetic
what decrease salivary secretion
sleep, dehydration, atropine
what secretion in gastric secretion
HCl
mucin
pepsinogen
intrinsic factor
what increase secretion of HCl
gastrin
Ach
histaine
what increase secretion of pepsinogen
PNS
what decrease gastric secretion
H+ in stomach chyme in duodenum somatostatin atropine cimetidine omeprazole (prilosec)
what are the three major salivary glands
parotid
submandibular
sublingual
what does parotid gland secrete
secretes salt, water and enzymes that moisten food to enhance taste and digestion, provide some antibacterial action, and keep a more alkaline pH to protect teeth and mouth from gastric and food acids
what do submandibular and sublingual glands secrete
mostly mucus
what kinds of cells in parotid gland
serous cells
what do serous cells secrete
watery fluid with ions and enzymes, not mucousy
what kinds of cells in submandibular and sublingual glands
mixed mucous
serous cells
what do mucous cells secrete
mucin glycoprotein
what is xerostomia
deficient salivation
pts with xerostomia have greater risk for
dental cavities
describe serous acinar cells
zymogen granules that contain amylase
describe mucus acinar cells
secrete glycoprotein mucins
describe ductal cells
alter electrolyte concentrations in saliva
describe myoepithelial cells
eject saliva into mouth when stimulated by neuronal input
what is the functional unit of the salivary gland
salivon
the salivon consists of
acinus, the intercalated duct, the striated duct, and the excretory (collecting duct).
what is function of kallikrein
enzyme that acts on kininogen to release bradykinin – vasodilator which accounts for high salivary blood flow during increased salivary activity
draw out salivon
pg 9
what cells make initial saliva
acinar cells
what cells modify initial saliva
ductal cells
describe the fluid produced by acicnar cells that makes initial saliva
isotonic fluid w/ same electrolyte composition as plasma
striated duct epithelium is impermeable to
water
striated duct epithelium transports
salts
describe absorption and secretion of striated duct
abosrbs sodium and Cl-
secretes K+ and HCO3-
the striated duct epithelium does what to final secretion
makes it hypotonic but alkaline
saliva is always _____ to plasma
hypotonic
describe flow rates and what they do regarding saliva and ductal cells
low flow rate: the ductal cell has time to exchange ions. the result is that the saliva is much different from plasma, it has low concentrations of Na+ and Cl- and high concentation of K+
high flow rate: the ductal cell has less time to exhange ions. result is that saliva is not as much different from plasma.
kallikrein acts on
kininogen
kininogen releases what when akllikrein acts on it
lysyl-bradykinin
what does lysyl-bradykinin do
causes dilation of blood vessels supplying salivary glands
what does vasoactive intestinal peptide do
increases blood flow to salivary glandq
what does VIP stand for
vasoactive intestinal peptide
draw out the salivary ductal cell and the ion exchange in it
pg 11
blood flow in salivary glands is controlled by what system
PNS
draw out the PNS and SNS regulation of saliva
pg 14
what are the four major components of gastric juice
HCl
pepsinogen
intrinsic factor
mucus
what is function of HCl
acidic
initiates process of digestion
what is function of pepsinogen
initiates process of protein digestion
what is function of intrinsic factor
needed for absorption of vitamin B12
what part of stomach secretes HCl, intrinsic factor, and pepsinogen
body and fundus
what part of stomach secrete gastrin & somatostatin
antrum
all regions of stomach secrete
mucus
oxyntic also means
acid secreting
describe oxynitic gland of stomach
in body
empties secretory products, containsmucus cells, parietal cells, chief cells
what do mucous neck cells secrete
clear mucus
what do parietal cells secrete
HCl
intrinsic factor
what do chief cells secrete
pepsinogen
what kind of glands are in antrum of stomach
pyloric glands
what kinds of cells in pyloric glands
G cell
mucous cell
what do g cells secrete
gastrin
what do mucous neck cells in antrum secrete
mucus
HCO3-
pepsinogen
parietal cells are also called
oxyntic cells
chief cells are also aclled
peptic cells
the reason we need such a low pH in stomach is for
pepsinogen to become active → pepsin, to begin protein digestion
