Q

what does the pectinate line in the anal canal demarcate ?

A

from simple columnar to stratified squamous (wet)

29
Q

what is the cardioesophageal junction

A

transition from esophagus to stomach sudden change from stratified squamous to simple columnar epithelium

30
Q

are there goblet cells in the stomach?

31
Q

does the large intestine have villi?

32
Q

what is the shape of villus in the duodenum, jejunum and ileum

A

in duodenum - broad, short and leaf-like in jejunum - tongue-like projections in ileum - tall, narrow, finger-like projections

33
Q

what makes up the core of a villus

A

lamina propria

34
Q

what makes up the core of a plicae circularis

35
Q

what are brunner’s glands

A

mucous secreting cells in the submucosa of duodenum only

36
Q

as we move down the GI tract what happens to the number of goblet cells

37
Q

what type of epithelium lines the small intestine

A

simple columnar

38
Q

what are some of the products of enterendocrine cells of the small intestine

A

found mainly in crypts, occasionally (rarely) in villus
secrete product into vascular channels in lamina propria

products include:
					incretins (K-cells)
					GIP (L-cells)
					serotonin (enterochromaffin cells)
					somatostatin- stasis
					motilin
					cholecystokinin
					neurotensin
					VIP
					substance P
					endorphins
39
Q

where are paneth cells found

A

intestinal crypts

40
Q

where are M cells found

A

epithelium on small intestine

41
Q

what is the function of paneth cells

A

secrete enzyme lysozyme & peptide defensins
degrade components of bacterial cell wall

The secretion of these cells go into the lumen

42
Q

what is the function of M cells

A

part of innate and classic immune systems

actively capture/transport Ag’s to APCs & B cells in lamina propria

43
Q

what part of the duodenum has serosa and what part has adventitia

A

the anterior part has a serosa

the posterior part has adventitia (retroperitoneal)

44
Q

where are peyer’s patches found

A

ileum, jejunum, large intestine

45
Q

do the ileum and jejunum have serosa?

46
Q

are there villi in the large intestine?

47
Q

are paneth cells in the large intestine

48
Q

what are crypts of Lieberkuhn

A

these are the intestinal crypts in the large intestine (longer and more closely packed)

49
Q

instead of plicae circularis like the small intestine, what is present in the large intestine

A

plica semilunaris

produce haustra

50
Q

where does tenia coli become continous again

51
Q

where are plica transversali found

52
Q

what occurs at the pectinate line

A

simple columnar to stratified squamous non-cornified

53
Q

what occurs in the epithelium at the caudal portion of the anal canal

A

epithelium changes to stratified squamous keratinzed

54
Q

from what tissue layer does the pancreas form

55
Q

what do the alpha cells of pancreas produce

56
Q

what do the beta cells produce (pancreas)

A

insulin

amylin

57
Q

what do delta cells of pancreas produce

A

somatostatin

58
Q

what doe the PP cells pancreas produce

A

pancreatic polypeptide

59
Q

what do the delta-1 (minor ) produce

60
Q

what do EC beta cells produce

A

secretin
motilin
substance P

61
Q

what doe epsilon cells produce

62
Q

what are stimulatory inputs to the pancreas

A

glucose, amino acids, glucagon, GIP, CCK, sulfonylurea compounds, b-sympathetic fibers

63
Q

what are inhibitory inputs to the pancreas

A

somatostatin, amylin, pancreastatin, α-sympathetic fibers

64
Q

what is the function of pancreatic polypeptide

A

stimulates gastric chief cells
inhibits bile secretion and intestinal motility
inhibits pancreatic enzymes and HCO3 secretion (bicarb)

65
Q

what is the function of VIP

A

Similar to action of glucagon (hyperglycemic and glycogenolytic)
Also affects secretory activity and motility in gut
Stimulates pancreatic exocrine secretion

66
Q

what is the function of secretin

A

acts locally:
stimulates HCO3 secretion (in pancreatic juice)
stimulates pancreatic enzyme secretion

67
Q

what is the function of motilin

A

increases gastric and intestinal motility

68
Q

what is the function of ghrelin

A

appetite stimulant

69
Q

which cells are the first cell that blood usually encounters in the islet
