GIT Functions (ppt) - Dr. Nobleza Flashcards
Largest portion of the stomach:
Body or corpus
Most anterior part of the stomach:
Fundus
The muscles of the stomach are arranged in such a way for ________ and _________.
Churning
Peristaltic motion
Consists of a simple columnar epithelium that produces an alkaline carpet of mucus that covers the interior surfaces of the stomach and protects epithelial cells against the acid and enzymes in the gastric lumen.
Mucosa
- Lamina propria
- Muscularis mucosae
Structures under muscularis externa:
Oblique muscle
Circular muscle
Longitudinal muscle
The ______ allow the stomach to have a larger surface area.
Folds
Secretions of the stomach secrete ______.
2 L/day
*Isotonic with plasma
Made up of basal secretionL
Sodium rich (non-parietal cells)
Stimulated secretion:
H+ rich (Parietal cells)
Acid secretion
Pepsinogen
Intrinsic factor
Corpus
Acid
IF
Parietal cells or oxyntic cells
Secrete pepsinogen not acid
Chief or peptic cells
If chief or peptic cells reach pH <3 activated to:
Pepsins
Mucus secreting cells
Chief or peptic cells
Endocrine cells
Chief or peptic cells
No parietal cells and no acid secretion
Antrum
G cells produce:
Gastrin
- Gastric acid secretion
- Trophic effect
D cells produce:
Somatostatin
Inhibit gastrin release and parietal acid secretion
Somatostatin
______ are present throughout the fundus and body, branched, tubular gastric glands.
Glands
- Mucous neck cells
- Chief cells
- Parietal cells
- Stem cells
- Enteroendocrine cells
Secretes mucus
Surface mucous cell and mucous neck cell
Secretes hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor
Parietal cell
Secretes pepsinogen and gastric lipase
Chief cell
Secretes the hormone gastrin
G cell
Also secretes bicarbonate and protects the lining.
Mucous neck cell
Large triangular cell, inc mitochondria, intracellular tubulovesicular membrances
Parietal cell
Secretes mucus
Surface mucus cells
Secretes mucus and pepsinogen
Mucus neck cells
Secrete pepsinogen
Peptic or chief cells
Secrete HCl intrinsic factor
Oxyntic or parietal cell
Secretes hormones
Endocrine
Enterochromaffin like cells:
Histamine
