Histo Highison Stomach Flashcards
What does the stomach do to a bolus?
acidifies it and turns it into chyme
What does the stomach produce?
pepsin, renin, gastric lipase, some hormones
What are the layers of the stomach?
mucosa-> submucosa-> musclaris externa-> serosa
What are the three components of the mucosa of the stomach?
epithelium
LP
Muscularis mucosae
What kind of cells line the epithelium of the mucosa of the stomach?
surface mucous lining cells
What is the LP of the stomach made up of?
smooth muscle
Connective tissue
gastric glands
lymphatic nodules
What is the muscularis mucosae of the stomach made up of?
inner incomplete oblique muscle
middle circular muscle
outter longitudinal muscle
What is located in the submucosa of the stomach?
the submucosal plexus
What is the muscularis externa of the stomach made up of?
incomplete inner oblique muscle
think middle circular muscle
outer longitudinal muscle
What forms the pyloric sphincter and has te myenteric plexus?
the thick middle circular muscle of the musclaris externa
What is the pyloric antrum?
the entraway into the pylorus
What is the first portion of the duodenum?
peritoneum
Where are the chief cells and the parietal cells?
the LP
What is highly vascularized?
the submucosa
Where will you find adipose tissue?
in the muscularis external
The stomach is divided histologically into three regions based upon the type of gland that is there. What are they?
cardiac region -> cardiac cells
fundus and body -> fundic glands
pyloric region-> pyloric glands
The stomach has longitudinal submucosal folds called (blank) which allow the stomach to distend when filled.
rugae
Where are glands found?
in the LP down to muscularis mucosa
(blank) consist primarily of mucous secreting cells
cardiac glands
(blank) have simple tubule glands and have long pits that primarily produce mucous
pyloric regions
(blank) are simple tubular and coiled at the lower end
cardiac glands
The (Blank) nature of cardiac glands result in cross and oblique sections
coiled
(blank) are simple tubular and branched at the very lower end. The pits are deeper than other glands.
pyloric
The (blank) is covered by protective layer of mucus that protects the surface epithelium from mechanical erosion by the ingested food and from the destructive effect of acid and hydrolytic enzymes present in gastric juice.
gastric mucosa
Ruga is a longitudinal fold of the gastric (blank) and (Blank)
mucosa and submucosa
The (blank) consists of gastric glands, surrounded by a LP containing capillaries and the muscularis mucosae
