Q

Does the parasympathetic or sympathetic nervous system control salivation? What receptors are used?

A

They are both used!

Parasympathetic: ACh > muscarinic receptor, IP3/Ca++

Sympathetic: NE > beta > cAMP

Q

Where do Lynch symptoms first appear? Second?

A

Extra-intestinal (uterus, ovary, stomach, ureter, pancreas, etc.)

17
Q

What does GLUT5 transport? GLUT2? sglt1?

A

GLUT5: fructose
GLUT2: fructose and glucose
sglt1: glucose, galactose and Na+

18
Q

What is the enzyme that turns trypsinogen into trypsin?

A

enterokinase.

19
Q

Creatinine is the breakdown product of what? Which is the breakdown product of what?

A

Lean muscle > creatine > creatinine

20
Q

What “-lase” is contained in the watery (serous) secretions?

A

alpha-amylase

21
Q

Does a low flow rate result in a high or low tonicity in the salivary ducts?

A

Low flow = Low To-nicty

22
Q

What genetic marker is occurs in 100% of celiac patients and 20-40% of the general population?

A

HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8

23
Q

What are the three most important stimulants of gastrin secretion?

A

a. distention
b. AAs
c. peptides

24
Q

What two neurotransmitters cause the release of gastrin?

A

a. Ach

b. GRP

25
What inhibits gastrin release? What inhibits this inhibitor?
Somatostatin. This is inhibited by low pH and parasympathetics.
26
What is the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome?
Tumors that secrete gastrin (gastromas). This leads to steatorrhea.
27
What does CCK do to the gallbladders?
Causes it to contract and causes the sphincter of Oddi to release.
