Lecture 6 - Digestive System II Flashcards
how many parts of the small intestine and what are they
- ) duodenum
- )Jejunum
- )Ileum
Long length (10ft living/21ft cadaver) Plicae circulares (submucosa core) Villi (fingerlike projections of mucosa) Microvilli (projections of apical membrane of intestinal absorptive cells; striated border)
Small intestine
Epithelium: Simple columnar epithelium Absorptive cells (enterocytes) Goblet cells Crypts of Lieberkühn (Intestinal Glands) Tubular glands Paneth cells Enteroendocrine cells Stem cells
mucosa of small intestine
Small Intestine – Wall Modifications
Mucosa
Epithelium:
Simple Columnar epithelium
Absorptive cells (enterocytes)
Goblet cells
Small Intestine – Wall Modifications
Mucosa Crypts of Lieberkühn
Tubular glands
Paneth cells
Enteroendocrine cells
Stem cells
Duodenum – Brunner’s glands (produce alkaline mucous)
submucosa
Muscularis Externa
Two Layers in small intestine what are they
outer longitudinal and inner circular
most outer layer of small intestine wall
serosa or adventitia
25cm in length and begins at the pyloric spinchter of stomach, smallest component of the small intestine
duodenum
second part of small intestine, about 2.5 meters in length
jejunum
the longest part of the small intestine, 3.5 meters in length (last part)
ileum
where does the ileum and the cecum from large intestine meet
ileocecal value - limits reflux
what kind of muscle is in the ileocecal value
innercircular smooth muscle
permanent circular folds of the jejunum - with submucosa folds
plicae circulares
fingerlike projections of muscosa, core of lamina propria- to increase surface area
villi
core of actin, projections of apical membrane of intestinal absorptive cells, create striated border
microvilli
core of villi
lamina propria
core of microvilli
actin
absorptive cells in the small intestine - have microvilli - and have secrection cells to finish off the 4 macromolecules
enterocytes
the number of ___ cells increases as you move distally along the small intestine
goblet cells
tubular glands between villi of small intestine
crypts of lieberkuhn
exocrine cells, large eosinophillic in their cytoplasm and secret lysomzyme
paneth cells
cells able to produce hormones to regulate GI tract
enteroendocrine cells
where do we find brunner’s glands(produce alkaline mucous to neutralize chyme)
duodenum
jejunum and ileum are covered by
serosa
retroperitunem and parts of the duodenum are surrounded by
adventitia
glands do not pass ___in the small intestine
muscularis mucosa
lymphatic capillary that absorbs dietary fats in the villi of the small intestine
lacteal
