Q

craniosacral nerves do what

A

leave CNS and dont interact with another neuron until they reach the enteric system

Q

thoracolumbar nerves do what

A

synapse in prevertebral ganglia, THEN they go to the gut and GI tract

Q

does enteric need CNS

A

no, it can function without.

EX: quadraplegic people still have functional GI tract

Q

key structural features of esophagus

A

1) epithelial cells are stratified squamous (non keratinized)
2) varying muscularis propria

Q

esophagus located where

A

posterior mediastinum

22
Q

where does vagus travel

A

alongside esophagus and wraps around stomach

23
Q

histologically, what changes the most from one part of gi to another

A

the epithelium

24
Q

lower esophageal sphincter is not really a

A

sphincter - really a high pressure zone to keep acid from going into esophagus

25
function of stomach
begin digestion mechanically and chemically converting food into chyme
26
structural features of stomach
1) epithelium: glands with specialized cells | 2) muscularis propria: 3 layers (oblique layer)
27
specialized cells in epithelium of stomach stomach
``` parietal cells (secrete acid; intrinsic factor) chief cells (secrete pepsinogen) G cells (secrete hormone gastrin) mucous cells (protect, lubricate mucosa) ```
28
stomach can be divided into what two parts
fundus and body secretion reservoir and then distal antrum (mixing and grinding)
29
where is acid made
promixal part of stomach
30
where is gastrin made
antrum
31
which comes first, acid or gastrin
first acid, then gastrin
32
glands in stomach
fundic, pyloric, cardias
33
fundic glands
- fundus and body of stomach | - long, branched glands with mucous, parietal, chief and endocrine cells
34
pyloric glands
- antrum and pyloric areas | - long, branched glands consisting almost exclusively of mucous cells and endocrine cells (G cells)
35
cardiac glands
- proximal stomach, just past the GE junction. - short, branched tubular glands consisting mainly of mucous cells * not very functional
36
common epithelial aspects of stomach
have pits in glands that is lined with mucous producing cells to protect the stomach from acid
37
what distinguishes the different glands
the cells BELOW the pits!
38
gastric fundic gland cell types from top to bottom
mucous, parietal (acid), ECL cell (histamine), chief cells (pepsinogen)
39
gastric epithelial cells
``` foveolar mucous neck parietal cells chief cells endocrine stem ```
40
foveolar cells
located at surface; mucous cells with faint, pink cytoplasm; rectangular shape
41
mucous neck cell
located at base of gastric pits; pale mucous vacuoles
42
parietal cells
located lower in fundic gland; eosinophilc cytoplasm with central nucleus (“fried egg” appearance); eosinophilic cytoplasm (mitochondria); invaginations of the plasma membrane *LOVES THESE*
43
chief cells
located near parietal cells; pyramidal cells with basophilic cytoplasm (numerous ribosomes); zymogen granules in apical cytoplasm
44
Endocrine cells
seen with special immunohistochemical stains; eosinophilic secretory granules. Ex: ECL
45
stem cells
Located in mucous neck region
46
what surface is proton pump on
apical
47
how do we fit more proton pumps in the cells
by making folds
48
production of acid by parietal stimulated by
acetylcholine, histamine, and gastrin
49
upper endoscopy takes you until
end of duodenum
50
colonoscopy takes you to
upper colon
