Hormones Flashcards
1
Q
Gastrin
A
Stimulates the secretion of HCl
2
Q
Gastric Inhibitory Peptide
A
- Stimulates the release of insulin
- Inhibits HCl
3
Q
Pepsinogen
A
-Becomes pepsin which digests protein
4
Q
CCK
A
- Slows gastric mobility
- Stimulates release of bile from the gallbladder
- Stimulates the secretion of pancreatic enzymes
5
Q
Secretin
A
-Stimulates bicarb secretion from the pancreas to increase neutralize acid chyme
6
Q
Glucagon
A
- Secreted by alpha cells
- Stimulate liver output of glucose by converting glycogen to glucose and forming glucose from amino acids
- Stimulates the breakdown of fat for energy
- Opposite of insulin
7
Q
Insulin
A
- Made by beta cells
- Stimulates cell uptake of glucose
- Lowers blood glucose levels
8
Q
Somatostatin
A
- Inhibits glucagon and insulin secretion
- Slows peristalsis of the GI and biliary system
9
Q
Pancreatic polypeptide
A
- Secreted via PP cells
- Acts on the stomach to stimulate the secretion of gastric enzymes and the SI to inhibit mobility
10

A
- Endometrium secretory development
- Ovum formation
14
Q
