Pancreas and Gallbladder Flashcards
What secretes enzymes in prancreas?
exocrine cells
what secretes HCO3 in pancreas?
duct cells
what stimulates cellur transport receport pancreas cells?
secretin
functions of NaHCO3?
protect intestinal mucosa by neutralizing protons of HCl
optimize luminal pH for pancreatic enzyme activity (7 pH)
shuts off stimulus secretin secretion (negative feedback)
Which pancreatic enzymes act on PRO?
Trypsin
Chymotrypsin
Carboxypeptidase A&B
Elastase
Which pancreatic enzymes act on fats?
Lipase
Phospholipase A2
Cholesterol esterase
Which pancreatic enzymes act on carbs?
Amylase
Which pancreatic enzymes act on nucleic acids?
`Ribonuclease
Deoxyribonuclease
what does bile consist of?
water
inorganic salts – NaHCO3 NaCl
organic salts - bile salts (biliruben) 80 %
bile salts are derived from
glycine and taurine
What cause the gall bladder to contract and the sphincter of oddi to relax?
increase CCK secretion d/t fatty acids in duodenum
what is the role of bile salts?
- stabilize the fat emulsion (keep in small drops) (detergent function)
- form micelles to carry end-products of digestion to absorptive cells
True or False. Bile salts are amphipathic molecules - one containing groups with very different properties, e.g. hydrophilic and hydrophobic.
True
micelles contain what?
monoglycerides fatty acids bile salts cholesterol phospholipids fat-soluble vitamins (A,D,E,K)
True or False. Bile salts are absorbed into the central vein.
False Portal vein
