Q

At the slowest salivary flow rate…

A

ductal cells reabsorb most Na and exchange most Cl for HCO3, therefore Na and Cl are low, and K is high

Q

Gastric substances that protect the stomach lining

A

Mucus and HCO3 (surface mucous cells and mucous neck cells)

24
Q

Secretory cells present in cardiac glands

A

surface mucous cells and mucous neck cells - mucus and HCO3

25
Q

Secretory cells present in gastric (oxyntic) glands

A

surface mucous cells and mucous neck cells - mucus and HCO3, parietal, chief, D cells, ECL

26
Q

Secretory cells present in pyloric glands

A

surface mucous cells and mucous neck cells - mucus and HCO3, G and D cells

27
Q

HCl secretion by parietal cells - H+ production

A

Carbonic Anhydrase: CO2 + H2O –> H+ + HCO3

28
Q

HCl secretion by parietal cells - Apical Membrane

A

H+/K+ ATPase pump: pumps H+ into lumen and K+ into cell

29
Q

HCl secretion by parietal cells - Basolateral membrane

A

Excess HCO3 is transported across in exchange for Cl-, HCO3 enters blood and CL- diffuses into lumen to generate HCl

30
Q

HCl secretion by parietal cells - H2O

A

passive diffusion with HCl into lumen

31
Q

Rate limting step of HCl secretion by parietal cells

A

ATP availability for the proton pump

32
Q

Alkaline tide

A

refers to the excess HCO3 entering the gastric venous blood, increasing the pH

33
Q

factors that increase HCl secretion act synergistically

A

Gastrin (Ca2+), Histamine (H2 receptors - cAMP), ACh-muscarinic activation (PNS - Ca2+)

34
Q

Location of receptors for modulation of HCl secretion

A

basolateral membrane of parietal cell

35
Q

factors that decrease HCl secretion

A

Somatostatin (D cells - cAMP), Prostaglandin (cAMP), Secretin (S cells) (decrease cAMP)

36
Q

What is more effective in reducing H+ secretion, proton pump inhibitor or H2 receptor antagonist?

A

Proton pump inhibitor

37
Q

Gastrin Function

A

increases secretion of HCl, pepsinogen, IF, and Histamine
increases phasic contractions, gastric emptying, and colonic motility (mass movements), trophic - stimulates growth of gastric mucosa

38
Q

What factors increase Gastrin secretion

A

GRP (IPANs), ACh, peptides in gastric lumen, secretin, gastric distention

39
Q

What factors decrease Gastrin secretion

A

Somatostatin (when pH drops below 3)

40
Q

Histamine Function

A

Increase HCl and IF, decrease somatostatin

41
Q

What factors increase histamine secretion

A

gastrin

42
Q

what factor decrease histamine secretion

A

somatostatin

43
Q

Somatostatins function

A

inhibits HCl, gastrin, pepsinogen, IF, histamine secretion; reduces local blood flow by constriction of vessels

44
Q

What factors increase somatostatin secretion

A

Low pH (<3), secretin

45
Q

What factors decrease somatostatin secretion

A

High pH, ACh, Histamine

46
Q

Why does vagal stimulation inhibit somatostatin?

A

to maximize HCl secretion for a acidic lumen (optimize enzymes)

47
Q

Vagal Stimulation causes release of ACh from enteric neurons which binds

A

Muscarinic receptors

48
Q

ACh directly increases secretion of

A

HCl and gastrin (GRP)

Q

ACh directly decreases secretion of

A

Somatostatin

50
Q

Gastrin directly increased release of

51
Q

Histamine directly activates H2 receptors and increases the secretion of

A

A

Somatostatin

53
Q

54
Q

Other factors that inhibit HCl secretion

A

duodenal feedback (pH <3, distention of duodenum, high osmolarity in duodenum)

55
Q

Acidic chyme in duodenum causes

A

Secretin release from S cells, which inhibits HCl secretion and increases somatostatin secretion

56
Q

Hyperosmotic chyme and duodenal distention causes

A

HCl inhibition via short and long neural reflexes
