26
Q

In the gastric parietal cell, what exchanger is located on the luminal side?

A

A

Omeprazole

28
Q

What exchanger is located on the basolateral side?

A

HCO3-/Cl- exchanger

Cl- going back INTO the cell

29
Q

What is absorbed via the parietal cell?

A

HCO3- absorbed into blood

30
Q

What releases histamine?

What else stimulates histamine release?

What does histamine do?

A

ECL cells

ACh and Gastrin

Stimulates HCl secretion

31
Q

Where does histamine bind?

What blocks the receptors?

What does it act through?

A

H2 receptors

Cimetidine

cAMP

32
Q

What releases ACh?

What does it stimulate?

A

Vagus n.

HCl secretion

33
Q

Where does ACh bind?

What blocks the binding?

What 2nd messenger does it use?

A

M3 on parietal cells

Atropine

IP3/Ca2+

34
Q

Where does Gastrin bind CCK?

What 2nd messenger does it work through?

Does Atropine block this pathway?

A

CCK B receptors on parietal cells

IP3/Ca2+

NO

35
Q

What releases somatostatin?

What does it do?

Where does it bind?

A

D cells in antrum

inhibits HCl

SSTR2 on parietal cells

36
Q

What effects does somatostatin have?

A

Direct effect - inhibits adenylate cycle -> inhibit H+

Indirect effect - inhibits histamine and Gastrin

37
Q

What has potentiation effects?

A

Histamine on ACh and Gastrin

ACh on histamine and Gastrin

38
Q

What do PGs do in gastric parietal cells?

A

Inhibits cAMP (Gi)

39
Q

What nt do G cells use when vagally stimulated?

A

40
Q

What stimulates the cephalic phase?

A

Smelling, tasting, chewing, swallowing

41
Q

What is the MOA for the cephalic phase?

A

Vagus n. -> Gastrin -> parietal cell using GRP

42
Q
