Lecture 1-Hormones Of The GI Tract Table Flashcards
Gastrin-Site of secretion?
G cells of stomach
Gastrin-Stimuli of secretion?
- Small peptides and amino acids
- Distention of stomach
- Vagal stimulation (via GRP)
Gastrin-actions?
- Increase circulating levels of gastrin
- Increase acid (HCl) secretion by parietal cells
- Hypertrophy of gastric mucosa (increases # of parietal cells)
Excess gastrin can cause?
Duodenal ulcers and steatorrhea
How does excess gastrin cause steatorrhea?
Excess gastrin leads to excess acid which impairs pancreatic enzymes some of which are responsible for breaking down fat
-fat in feces
CCK-hormone family?
Gastrin-CCK family
CCK-Site of secretion?
I cells of the jejunum and duodenum
CCK actions (2 main actions)?
- Increase pancreatic enzyme secretion
- Stimulates contraction of the gall bladder and relaxation of the sphincter of Oddi-gall bladder releases bile into duodenum
CCK other actions?
- Increase pancreatic bicarb secretion (not a direct effect, it potentiates the effects of secretin)
- Stimulates growth of the exocrine pancreas and gall bladder
- Inhibits gastric emptying
- Can also act as a paracrine signal
CCK inhibits gastric emptying
Allows fat and protein to sit in the stomach and digest since they need more time to digest than carbs
Specific receptor for CCK?
-Non specific receptor for CCK? What other hormone uses this receptor?
CCK-specific receptor-CCK1/alpha
CCK/gastrin-receptor-CCKbeta
CCK-stimuli of secretion?
- Small peptides and amino acids
- Fatty acids
Secretin-hormone family?
Secretin-glucagon family
Secretin-site of secretion?
S cells of duodenum
Secretin-stimuli of secretion?
- Acid (H+) in the duodenum
- Fatty acids in the duodenum
