Hu_Digestive System Flashcards
layers of the digestive system
Mucosa Submucosa Muscularis circular layer, myenteric plexus, longitudinal layer) Serosa (visceral peritoneum)
why do we need muscularis mucosa?
squeeze mucosal glands
nerve innervation for GI tract:
submucosal (in submucosal) and mesentric plexus
submucosal plexus innervates:
gland stimulation
mesenteric plexus innervates:
smooth muscle contraction
mucosa muscularis:
smooth muscle that causes gland secretion
muscularis externa:
smooth muscle that causes peristalsis
unique characteristic of stomach epithelium
gastric pit
layers of stomach cells
mucosa, lamina propria, muscularis mucosa, submucosa,oblique muscle, circular muscle, longitudinal muscle, serosa
gastric glands
parietal cells, smooth muscle cell, g cell and chief cells
gastric pit
lamina propria, mucous cells, neck
mucous cells produce:
HCO3 alkaline
Parietal cells secrete:
HCL Intrinsic Factor
G Cells produce
gastrin
Chief Cells produce:
Proenzyme
Gastric Glands:
mostly exocrine, at the bottom of pit there are some endocrine
The cells that look like fried eggs:
Parietal cells
intrinsic factor helps to facilitate:
absorption of Vit B12
Parietal cells help to facillitate:
intrinsic factor that helps in absorption of B12
H+ and Cl-and transport from ____ to the stomach lumen independently
H+ Cl-
Deficient Parietal cells may result in:
enemia
chief cells stain _____
stain purple
Chief cells stimulate:
parietal, chief, smooth muscle cells contraction
how does the stomach digest food:
acid, enzyme, mechanical force
duodenum:
main place of digestive regulation
3 functions of duodenum:
receive chyme, neutralize stomach acid, regulate GI tract hormones
duodenum has _____ plicae than small intestine?
smaller, fewer
brunners glands are located in the _____ of the _______
submucosa duodenum
brunners glands secrete:
HCO3
brunners glands are more abundant in the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ region (proximal/distal)
distal (proximal is most acidic and so the basic glands work to neutralize the acid)
bunners glands are located in the _______ region (mucosa submucosa, muscle, etc)
submucosa
liver is made up of _______ that are ______ in shape
lobules, hexagon
the lobules of the liver contain a ________ in the middle and have six triad areas:
central vein, portal vein, hepatic artery bile duct
ducts are lined with:
simple cuboidal cells
each of the triad areas contain a triad of lumen, you can tell the arteries and veins apart by the _______
epithelium tissue (ducts are simple cuboidal, arteries and veins are simple squamous)
cells of the liver lobules:
hepatocytes, and kupffer
hepatocytes, kupffer
lined like wheels along central vein; immunity cells (antigen presenting)
everything you eat gets moved to the liver through _______ except the dietary lipids
portal vein
liver processes and digests food, and the oxygen is supplied via:
1/3 hepatic artery, 2/3 portal vein
the hepatic artery supplies _______ blood to the liver while the portal vein supplies _______ blood
oxygenated, deoxygenated
the blood of the hepatic artery and portal vein meet in the _________
liver sinusoid or sinusoidal blood vessel
the _____ of the liver are lined with ______
sinusoid, hepatocytes
among the content of the sinusoids of the liver, they are lined with ______ and contain ______
hepatocytes, macrophages
the blood flow of the liver:
goes from the triad area, and towards the central vein
all the central veins of the lobules merge, and come together, and upon exiting the liver they are called the:
hepatic vein
_____ are responsible for making bile
hepatocytes
