L5/6 Flashcards
Hypersecretion is usually the cause of gastric or duodenal ulcers?
duodenal ulcers
Parietal cell secrete
HCL
Intrinsic factor is req for
VitB12 absorption
Intrinsic factor (IF) is ONLY secreted where?
Stomach
Dominant regulation of stomach function?
Neural
Histamine promotes
H+ secretion in stomach
What stimulates gastric acid secretion?
Gastrin
What is the negative regulator of gastric secretion?
somatostatin
What is secreted in all regions of stomach
Mucus and bicarbonate
Where are G-cells in stomach?
Antrum of stomach
Grinding function of stomach is localized where?
Antrum and pyloric area
What cells secrete intrinsic factor?
Parietal cells (also secrete HCL)
Chief cells secrete
Pepsinogens
Enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells secrete
Histamine (powerful stimulator of HCL)
D-cells secrete
Somatostatin
G-cells secrete
gastrin (stimulate HCL secretion)
Why do patients with gastric surgery need vitamin B12?
Loss IF
Name the 6 types of secretory cells in the fundus and antrum of the stomach
- G cells - gastrin
- Chief cells - pepsinogen
- ECL - histamine
- D cells - somatostatin
- Parietal cells - HCL and Intrinsic factor
- Mucous neck cells - mucus
Name the only ESSENTIAL factor of gastric juice
Intrinsic factor!
How many states can the parietal cell take on?
Resting and activated states.
What transporter is blocked by omeprazole?
The H/K ATPase antiporter on the luminal side of parietal cell. Prevents the secretion of H+ into lumen.
What transporter in the parietal cell accounts for the “alkaline tide”?
HCO3-/Cl- antiporter on basolateral membrane. Net secretion of HCL is paired with net absorption of HCO3- into blood.
What is the strongest extrinsic stimulator of gastric secretions?
CN X
Name 3 stimulators of H+ secretion by parietal cells
- ACh - neurocrine
- Gastrin - endocrine
- Histamine - paracrine
