GI Secretions - intestines & pancreas & biliary Flashcards
in small and large intestine what cells secrete mucous
goblet cells
where is mucous the most thick and strong
stomach
what secretes bicarb
stomach
duodenum
colon
what is the gland in duodenum that secretes bicarb
Brunner’s glands
what activates Brunner’s glands
pH
duodenal bicarb secretion is stimulated by
prostaglandins
where does chloride secretion occur in small and large intestine
crypt glands
what does chloride secretion do
promotes water flux to gut
CFTR is dysfunctional in what disorder
cystic fibrosis
bacterial toxins can act on second messenger systems and what will that do
chloride channel will not work properly, solute concentration builds up water, can make toxigenic diarrhea
NKCC1 stands for
NA-K-2Cl transporter
in the small and large intestine what is the major apical chloride channel
CFTR
what does CFTR stand for
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
what is the purpose of NACC1?
pulls more chloride into cell to make it no longer at equilibrium so that chloride can flow passively out of cell via the apical chloride channels
draw out a cell with intestinal chloride secretion and the chloride channels, as well as bacteria’s role
pg 9
pancreas has both ____ and ____ functions
exocrine and endocrine
exocrine pancreas secretions are essential for what
neutralize gastric acid and digest nutrients
describe the secretion of exocrine pancreas
very aqueous, lots of HCO3-, enzymatic component
what is the purpose of the enzymatic portion of exocrine pancreas secretion
digest carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids into absorbable molecules
what is an acinus
blind end of a branching duct system
exocrine pancreas has acinus, what kind of cells are in it
acinar cells
ducts of exocrine pancreas are lined with what cells
ductal epithelial cells
what does endocrine pancreas secrete
insulin & glucagon
centroacinar and ductal cells in exocrine pancreas secrete
aqueous HCO3-
enzymes from exocrine pancreas are secreted by what cells
acinar cells
describe how aqueous component of exocrine pancreas is made/secreted
secreted by centroacinar cells and modified by ductal cells
where are the enzymes stored in pancreas until a stimulus tells them to be released
in zymogen granules
what are the five major pancreatic proteases that are secreted as inactive precursors
trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, proelastase, procarboxypeptidase A, and procarboxypeptidase B
enterokinase is what kind of enzyme
brush border
what activates trypsinogen into active form trypsin
enterokinase
draw out the activation of trypsinogen and all the enzymes it makes active
pg 17
what do active proteases cleaved by trypsin hydrolyze
dietary proteins
active proteases hydrolyze dietary proteins into
amino acids, dipeptides, tripeptides, and oligopeptides
out of the amino acids, dipeptides, tripeptides, and oligopeptides that the protease hyrolyzes, what are absorbable?
amino acids, dipeptides, and tripeptides
what happens to oligopeptides since they are not absorbable
further hydrolyzed by brush border peptides
after the pancreatic proteases have digested the proteins, what do they do
digest themselves and each other
what is the tonicity of pancreatic juice
isotonic
what salts/ions are in pancreatic aqueous juice
Na+
Cl-
K+
HCO3-
where is the Cl- HCO3- exchanger of ductal cells
apical (lumen side)
where is the NA+ K+ ATPase exchanger of ductal cells
basolateral membrane
where is the Na+ H+ exchanger of ductal cells
basolateral membrane
draw out the exchangers in ductal cell
pg 18
what is the net result of ductal cell in pancreas
secretion of HCO3-
absorption of H+
pancreatic venous blood, describe it’s properites and why
it is acidic b/c it accepts the H+ that is absorbed by ductal cell
when flow rate changes, what ion concentrations remain the same in pancreas
Na+
K+
when flow rate changes, what ion concentratoins change in pancreas
HCO3-
Cl-
at highest pancreatic flow rates, describe concentration of HCO3-
it is at it’s highest
at highest pancreatic flow rate, describe concentration of Cl-
lowest
at low pancreatic flow rate, describe concentration of HCO3-
low
at low pancreatic flow rate, describe concentration of Cl-
high
what are the two functions of pancreatic secretion
to secrete the enzymes necessary for digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids and
(2) to neutralize H+ in the chyme delivered to the duodenum from the stomach.
aqueous secretion is stimulated by
arrival of H+ in duodenum
enzymatic secretion is stimulated by
products of digestion - small peptides, AA, fatty acids
what is the function of the enzymatic secretion
secretes enzymes necessary for digestion for carbohydrates, proteins and lipids
what is the function of the aqueous secretion
containing HCO3- neutralizes H+ in chyme delivered to duodenum
what does secretin do to pancreatic fluid
causes secretion
what does CCK do to pancreatic fluid
causes secretion of enzymes
what are the three phases of pancreatic secretion
cephalic
gastric
intestinal
what is stimulus for cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion
thought of food, smell, taste, chewing, swallowing
what is mediator for cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion
ACh and gastrin release via vagus stimulation
what is the pancreatic response to cephalic phase
secretion, but especially enzymatic component
what is the stimulus of gastric phase of pancreatic secretion
protein in food
gastric distension
