18
Q

the cell types of a gastric gland from the lumen downward

A

mucous neck cells, undifferentiated neck (stem) cells, parietal cells, chief cells, and enteroendocrine cells

19
Q

4 features of Parietal cell appearance

A

large round/ triangular, central nucleus, acidophilic (pale pink) cytoplasm, with CANALICULI on apical surface

20
Q

Parietal/oxynic cells secrete…

A

HCl, intrinsic factor glycoprotein for B12 absorption (erythrocyte maturation)

21
Q

Chief/zymogen/peptic cells secrete…

A

pepsinogen, rennin

22
Q

Mucous neck cell appearance

A

nucleus is flattened along the BM

23
Q

What is the difference between mucous neck cell and Stomach Epithelial Cell sectretions

A

mucous neck cell gives acidic mucin, SEC gives neutral mucin

24
Q

the three regions below the foveolae

A

isthmus, neck and base of gastric gland

25
Q

plicae circularis (valves of Kerckring)

A

submucosa base of villi - longest in jejunum

26
Q

the two varieties of simple columnar epithelium of sm intestine

A
  1. absorptive ENTEROCYTE

2. goblet (increasing from duodenum to ileum)

27
Q

name of mucosal glands in the sm. intestines

A

crypts of Lieberkuhn

28
Q

describe the core of villi outward

A

lacteal and capillaries, [then sm. mus.,] then lamina propria, then epithelium

29
Q

why is there no serosa on the duodenum

A

it lies retroperitoneal (only adventitia)

30
Q

pH of goblet cell mucin ( sm. intes.)

31
Q

myenteric plexus

A

Auerbach’s - between mus. externa, many nerve bodies

32
Q

purpose of Paneth cells

A

anitmicrobial (lysozyme, Tumor necrosis factor-α and defensins secreted)

33
Q

3 types of entero-endocrine in the sm intestine

A

Cholecystekinin (CCK), gastric inhibitory peptide, secretin

34
Q

where are chylomicrons produced

A

in sER of enterocytes

35
Q

largest endocrine organ of the body

A

enteroendocrine cells of stomach thru colon

36
Q

closed enteroendocrine cells

A

hormones do not reach the lumen- detect distention of the STOMACH

37
Q

gastrin-producing cells

A

stimulate acid and pepsinogen release in stomach

38
Q

CCK

A

cholecystekinin, endocrine cell of sm intes. increases pancreatic sectretion, gallbladder and pyloric sphincter contraction

39
Q

what two endocrine cells combat gastrin producing cells & how?

A

somatostatin- producing in stomach- directly, GIP: gastric inhibitory peptide, of sm intes.- decreases acid production and motilin

40
Q

Secretin

A

endocrine cell of sm intes. secreted in presence of acid and fatty acid. stimulates bicarbonate release from pancreas, insulin release from B cells of Langerhans

41
Q

what is the structural functional unit of the stomach?

A

the gastric gland

42
Q

open type enteroendocrine cell

A

in the SM INTESTINES to detect conditions of the lumen [ex: lipid presence and signal for increased lipase production]

43
Q

what is the only cell type that can be found in both the stomach and in the sm intestines

A

enteroendocrine
