Q

Hyper-tonicity:

A

Large volumes of water entering the intestine from the plasma lead to intestinal distension,
more importantly, circulatory disturbances ensue كلب علبى يترتبbecause of the reduction in plasma
volume.
To prevent these effects, gastric emptying is reflexly inhibited when the osmolarity of the duodenal
content starts to rise.

− by mucus cells on the
surface of epithelium between glands

57
Q

The stomach absorbs

A

58
Q

Alcohol

A

lipid soluble>diffuse through the lipid membranes of the epithelial cells that line the stomach >can enter the blood through the sub-mucosal capillaries

59
Q

Acetylsalicylic (aspirin).

A

In the highly acidic environment of the stomach lumen, weak acids are
lipid soluble, so they can be absorbed quickly by crossing the plasma membranes of the epithelial
cells that line the stomach

60
Q

Mucous cells secrete

A

thin, watery mucus

61
Q

Mucus serves as a

A

protective barrier against several forms of potential injury to the gastric mucosa

62
Q

how Mucus serves as a protective barrier

A

1.lubricating properties→ no mechanical
injury.
2.protect the stomach wall from self-digestion
3.alkaline →protect against acid injury

63
Q

how protect the stomach wall from self-digestion

A

pepsin is inhibited when it comes in
contact with the mucus layer coating the stomach lining. (However, mucus does not affect pepsin
activity in the lumen, where digestion of dietary protein proceeds without interference.

64
Q

The cells of the gastric glands secrete about

A

2500mL

65
Q

Gastric secretion includes

A

hydrochloric acid, pepsin, and intrinsic factor.

66
Q

The substance intrinsic factor is a

A

49-KDa glycoprotein

67
Q

The substance intrinsic factor is secreted by

A

the parietal cells

68
Q

When parietal cells of the stomach are destroyed

A
  1. achlorhydria

2. pernicious anemia

69
Q

achlorhydria

A

lack of stomach acid secretion

70
Q
the Chief (peptic) cells of the oxyntic 
glands secreted
A

pepsinogen + hydrochloric acid,=

A

active pepsin

72
Q

73
Q

pepsin molecular weight

A

35,000

74
Q

A

proteolytic enzyme at pH 1.8 to
3.5)
2.Pepsinogen acts as a signal for release
gastrin and cholecystokinin.

75
Q

pH of about 5

A

no proteolytic activity

76
Q

Mucosal barrier

A
The mucus gel layer (extrinsic barrier)
gastric mucosa (intrinsic barrier)
77
Q

mucosal barrier function

A

protects gastric and duodenal mucosa against the damaging effect (auto-digestion) of gastric juice

78
Q

The mucus gel layer visible layer

A

several millimeters thick over

the surface of the mucosa above gastric mucus membrane

79
Q

The mucus gel layer composed of

A

mucus

Bicarbonate

80
Q

Mucus is secreted by

A

neck cells of gastric gland and

surface mucosal cells

81
Q

Mucus is

A

slimy” لزجmaterial that coats epithelial surfaces of stomach

82
Q

Mucus is composed chiefly of

A

mucins and

inorganic salts

83
Q

Mucins are

A

large, heavily glycosylated proteins

84
Q

Mucins are located

A

on the surface of the stomach cavity

85
Q

main components of the gastric mucosa epithelial mucus layer.

A

Mucins

86
Q

Secretion of gastric mucin increases

A

i. by vagal stimulation
ii. by irritant foods.
iii. by some prostaglandins

87
Q

Mucins structure

A

trefoil peptides

88
Q

hh

A

Mucins form a barrier as apart of mucosal defense system that protects
gastric epithelial cells against chemical, enzymatic, microbial, and
mechanical damage.
The hydrochloric acid crosses this barrier in finger-like channels, leaving
the gel layer intact.

89
Q

Bicarbonate secreted by

A

surface mucosal cells

90
Q

Bicarbonate

A

is trapped in the mucus gel, so that a pH gradient is established that ranges
from pH 1.0 to 2.0 at luminal side to pH 6.0 to 7.0 at the surface of epithelial cells.
Prostaglandins stimulate mucus and bicarbonate secretion

91
Q

luminal membranes of the gastric mucosal cells are almost impermeable to

A

H+→acid cannot penetrate into the cells and damage them

92
Q

the gastric mucosal cells joined together near their luminal borders by

A

tight junctions →acid cannot diffuse between the cells from the lumen into the underlying submucosa.

93
Q

gastric mucosa entire stomach lining is replaced every

A

three days

94
Q

rapid mucosal turnover

A

cells are usually replaced before they are exposed to the wear and tear of harsh gastric conditions

95
Q

The daughter cells that result from cell division

A
  1. migrate out of the pit to become surface epithelial cells

2. migrate down deeper to the gastric glands, where they differentiate into chief or parietal cells

96
Q

When the barrier occasionally is broken

A

the gastric wall is injured by its acidic and
enzymatic contents

an erosion, or peptic ulcer, of the stomach wall results.
