What are the classic/offical hormones produced by the enteroendocrine APUD cells?
Secretin, gastrin, CCK, GIP
What are the neurocrines produced ENS neurons?
VIP, GRP, enkephalins
What are the paracrines produced in the GIT by ENS?
Somatostatin, histamine
What are the sites where gastrin is produced?
Antrum (Most), duo,
What are the sites where CCK is produced?
Duo
What are the sites where Secretin is produced?
Duo, jejun, illeum
What are the sites where GIP is produced?
duo and jejun
What are the sites where motilin is produced?
Duo, Jejnum
What is the concentration of serum gastrin that indicates that a person has a Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome (Gastrinoma) after ChiRhoStim is adminstered?
Above 110 pg/ml
What is gastrin stimulated by?
Secretion is stimulated by protein digestion products
— Nervous impulses, physical distention
— calcium, regular &decaf coffee, and wine
What is gastrin inhibted by?
Secretion is inhibited by acidification of antrum
What does gastrin stimulate?
Gastrin stimulates pyloric contraction and increases cardiac sphincter tone, preventing
reflux. Gastrin also stimulates acid and pepsinogen secretion and antral motility, thus
facilitating gastric digestion
How does gastrin effect the mucosa?
Stimulates growth of oxyntic mucosa of the stomach, the duodenal mucosa, and colonmucosa
Surgical removal ofthe antrum causes atrophy.
What do patients with gastrinomas have in relation to the mucosa?
Patients with gastrin-secreting tumors have mucosal hyperplasia and hypertrophy.
What does CCK do in relation to sphinchers and enzymes?
Contraction of pyloric
sphincter and inhibition
of gastric emptying
↑ pancreatic
secretion of enzymes
↑ glucagon secretion
Augments the secretin effect
on secretion of bicarbonate
in the pancreas and liver
