Q

Composition of a gastric gland?

A
  1. Surface mucous cell
  2. Stem cell: mitosis, granule free
  3. Mucous neck cell: have mucous granules, produces carbohydrate-rich glycoproteins, composed of neutral mucins, high bicarbonate concentration
  4. Parietal cell: secretes HCL and intrinsic factor that promotes absorption of B12
  5. Enteroendocrine cell: at the base of the gastric gland, secretes gastrin (stimulates the secretion of HCL by the parietal cells), serotonin, histamine, VIP, glucagon and somatostatin (inhibits the secretion of HCL by the parietal cells)
  6. Zymogenic cell: secretory granule, peptic cell

Q

What’s in a villius VS crypt of Lieberkühn?

A

Villius: columnar with striated border, smooth muscle, capillary, lymphatics and goblet cells

Crypt of Lieberkühn: smooth muscle, enteroendocrine cells, goblet cells, mitoses and Paneth’s cells (lysozyme production)

Q

By what organelles/components are hepatocytes composed of?

A
  • Cells with microvilli
  • Desmosome
  • Tight junction (important in jaundice)
  • Bile canaliculus
  • Peroxisome: b-oxidation of fatty acids, catabolism of ETOH, break down of purines to uric acid and cholesterol synthesis
