Q

Function of HCl

A

. Denature protein
. Kill most ingested bacteria
. Dissolve CT in food
. Maintain low gastric luminal pH for pepsinogen activation and optimal pepsin activity

17
Q

Secretory mechanism of HCl

A

. Apical membrane of parietal cell contains H-K ATPase that transports K into the cell and H out of cell against electrochemical gradients (primary active transport)
. H ion comes from action of the enzyme CA
. On basolat. Membrane, Cl is exchanged for excess bicarbonate ion
. HCO3 enters venous circulation and inc. pH of gastric venous blood
. Cl leaves the cell on apical membrane by facilitated diffusion
. HCl secretion followed by passive diffusion of H2O
. Rate-limiting step in HCl secretion is availability of ATP for proton pump

18
Q

Agonists of HCl secretion

A

. They are synergistic
. W/o them secretion is significantly limited
. ACh inc. Ca
. Gastrin inc. Ca
. Histamine inc. cAMP (paracrine released from ECL cells in gastric mucosa)

19
Q

Antagonists of HCl secretion

A

. Somatostatin (paracrine from D cells in gastric mucosa) dec. cAMP
. Prostaglandins (generated from arachidonic acid) dec. cAMP

20
Q

Gastrin function

A

. Hormone
. Inc. HCl, intrinsic factor, histamine, and pepsinogen secretion
. Inc. rate of gastric emptying
. Stimulates growth of gastric mucosa (trophic hormone)
. Promotes mass movements in colon (gastrocolonic reflex)

21
Q

Regulation of gastrin secretion

A

. G cells express receptors in their basolateral membrane that directly inc. or dec. gastrin secretion
. Protein digestion products in gastric lumen activate GRP-releasing IPANS to inc. gastrin secretion (short neural reflex)

22
Q

Substances that inc. gastrin secretion from G cell

A

. Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) released from enteric neurons
. ACh
. Protein digestion products in gastric lumen (GRP)
. Secretin
. Gastric distension: long and short neural reflexes

23
Q

Substances hat dec. gastrin secretion from G cells

A

. Express receptors in their basolat. Membrane that when activated directly dec. gastrin release
. Somatostatin: paracrine released from D cells of gastric mucosa when pH of gastric lineal contents is under 3

24
Q

Histamine function

A

. Stimulates secretion of HCl and intrinsic factor
. Inhibits secretion of somatostatin
. Paracrine

25
Q

Histamine regulation of secretion

A

. ECL cells express receptors in their membrane for gastrin to inc. histamine secretion and for somatostatin to dec. histamine secretion

26
Q

Somatostatin function

A

. Inhibits secretion of HCl, intrinsic factor, pepsinogen, histamine, and gastrin
. Inhibits secretion of peptides from endocrine cells
. Constricts blood vessels and dec. local blood flow

27
Q

Somatostatin regulation of secretion

A

. Cytoplasmic processes of D cells allow for control of G, ECL, and parietal cells
. D cells express receptors in their basolateral membrane for ACh and histamine that dec. SS secretion and secretin and CCK that inc. SS secretion
.pH of gastric contents alters SS secretion w/ pH under 3 inc. and pH over 3 dec. SS secretion

28
Q

Interregulation of HCl secretion

A

. G, ECL, and D cells along w/ enteric neurons and vagus n. Interact to modulate HCl secretion from parietal cells

29
Q

Activation of vagus pathway to HCl secretion

A

. Enteric neurons release ACh that activates muscarinic receptors to inc. HCl by parietal cells
. ACh and GRP directly inc. gastrin from G cells
. ACh inhibits somatostatin from D cells
. Gastrin travels into blood to directly inc. release of histamine from ECL cells and HCl from parietal cells
. Histamine activates H2 receptors ti inc. HCl
. Histamine activates H3 receptors to dec. release of somatostatin inc. acid secretion
.pH under 3 in gastric lumen inc. release of somatostatin from D cells

30
Q

Effect of food in stomach on HCl

A

. When food enters, smooth m. Distended, dietary protein digestion begins, and pH of stomach inc. due to buffering by food
. Normal interregulation is still occurring
. Distension activates IPANS and vagal afferent nn.
. Short and long neural reflexes inc. HCl secretion
. Protein digestion products in gastric lumen inc. GRP release from enteric neurons to inc. gastrin release from G cells (short reflex)
.pH under 3 in gastric lumen results in dec. release of somatostatin from D cells
. Lower local levels of somatostatin inc. release of gastrin from G cells, histamine from ECL cells, and HCl from parietal cells

31
Q

Result of presence of food in duodenum

A

. The acidic pH, fat content, high osmolarity, and distension of duodenal smooth m. Inhibit HCl secretion
. Acidic chyme stimulates secretin release from S cells
. Fat stimulates release of CCK from I cells
. Secretin and CCK inhibit HCl secretion by inc. SS secretion from D cells
. Hyperosmotic chyme and smooth m. Distension inhibit HCl secretion through short and long neural reflexes
