Q

what are the 3 layers of muscularis externa

A
  • inner oblique
  • middle circular
  • outermost longitudinal
32
Q

what are the 4 different stages of the stomach motility

A
  1. food entry into stomach
  2. storage in fundus
  3. mixing (aka churning)
  4. emptying into small intestine
33
Q

what are the functions of the lower esophageal sphincter?

A
  • controls movement of food into the stomach
  • also prevent reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus
34
Q

what is required of the sphincter to facilitate entry of food into the stomach?

A

relaxation

35
Q

what is initiated for the relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter?

A

initiated by a vasovagal reflex called receptive relaxation which is triggered by swallowing and esophageal distension

36
Q

where is the food stored in the stomach?

A

fundus

37
Q

what is gastric accommodation

A

the presence of food stretches the stomach walls and reduces the tone in muscular wall of body of the stomach

38
Q

what initiates mixing waves of food in the stomach?

A

gastric pacemakers

39
Q

what is it called when waves start in mid- to upper portion and move toward pyloric antrum

A

propulsion

40
Q

the contractions in pyloric antrum “grinds” the food bolus called?

A

grinding

41
Q

the pylorus opening is very small so antral contents are pushed back upstream toward body of stomach, this is called?

A

retropulsion

42
Q

what can only leave the stomach through the pyloric sphincter

A

only liquid

43
Q

gastric acids are released from ?

A

parietal cells

44
Q

what is the pH of gastric acid?

A

pH of 1-2

45
Q

gastric acid is composed of?

A
  • hydrochloric acid
  • large amounts of KCI and small amounts of NaCl
46
Q

what are the functions of gastric acid?

A
  • digestions of denaturation of protein
  • bacteriostatic
  • needed for conversion of pepsinogen to pepsin
47
Q

what is the secretion mechanism of gastric acid?

A
  • Water dissociates into H+ and OH- in cell cytoplasm
  • CO2 combines with OH- to form bicarbonate ions by enzyme: carbonic anhydrase
  • H+ is pumped into lumen of canaliculus via H+/K+ ATPase
  • H+/K+ ATPase is blocked by the class of drugs called “proton pump inhibitors”
  • Cl- transported passively from cytoplasm of parietal cell into lumen of canaliculus
  • Parietal cells can be stimulated by several sources:
    ○ Acetylcholine acting on Muscarinic receptors
    § Parasympathetic stimulation
    ○ Gastrin acting on CCK2 receptors
    ○ Histamine acting on H2 receptors
48
Q

Histamine is stored and released form ? of the stomach

A

enterochromaffin-like cells

49
Q

what are the functions of histamine

A
  • acts on H2 receptors on parietal cells
  • stimulates release of gastric acid
  • stimulates vasodilation
50
Q

gastrin is secreted by ?

A

G cells

51
Q

gastrin is secreted in response to?

A
  • stomach distension
  • vagal stimulation
  • presence of partially digestion proteins (peptides and amino acids)
52
Q

what are the functions of gastrin?

A

○ Acts on ECL cells to stimulate release of histamine
○ Directly stimulates parietal cells by binding to CCK receptor

53
Q

Parietal cells can be inhibited by?

A
  • somatostatin
  • prostaglandins
54
Q

somatostatin is also known as ?

A

growth hormone inhibiting hormone

55
Q

somatostatin is released from what?

A

D cells

56
Q

what are the functions of somatostatin?

A
  • acts on parietal cells to reduce secretion of gastric acid
  • also reduce release of gastrin, secretin, and histamine
  • suppresses released of pancreatic hormones
57
Q

somatostatin is secreted in response to?

A

luminal H+ which is negative feedback

58
Q

the phases of gastric acid secretion after meals can be divided into 3 phases which are?

A
  • cephalic
  • gastric
  • intestinal
59
Q

the cephalic phase is triggered by ?

A

smell, sight, taste, thought and swallowing food

60
Q

the cephalic phase is primarily mediated by the ?

A

vagus nerve

61
Q

the vagus nerve releases ?

A

Ach

62
Q

what does the Ach do?

A

§ Ach acts directly on parietal cells to release H+
§ Ach acts on ECL cells to release histamine
§ Ach acts on D cells, inhibiting release of somatostatin

63
Q

Vagus nerve also releases ? to induce gastrin release from G cells

A

GRP

64
Q

food enters the stomach, distending the gastric mucosa and activating what?

A

vagovagal reflex and local ENS reflex

65
Q

partially digested proteins stimulate G cells to produce ?

A

gastrin

66
Q

what stimulates D cells to secrete somatostatin, which inhibits gastrin production (think negative feedback)

A

low luminal pH

67
Q

explain the intestinal phase of gastric acid secretion

A
  • Presence of amino acids and partially digested peptides in proximal intestine
    ○ Stimulates G cells in duodenum to secrete gastrin
68
Q

what are some intrinsic factors for secretion of gastric acid

A

glycoprotein and pepsinogen

69
Q

glycoprotein is secreted by ?

A

parietal cells

70
Q

what is the function of glycoprotein

A

required for the absorption of vitamin B12 in the ileum

71
Q

pepsinogen is secreted by ?

A

chief cells

72
Q

pepsinogen is spontaneously cleaved to ? in the presence of HCI

A

active pepsin

73
Q

how is pepsinogen secretion stimulated?

A

§ Ach release from vagus nerve or ENS
□ Ach bind to M receptors on chief cells
□ *Most important stimulus
§ Presence of acid in the duodenum triggers secretin from S cells
□ Secretin also stimulates chief cells to release more pepsinogen

74
Q

the gastric diffusion barrier is maintained by:

A
  • mucus gel layer on surface epithelium
  • bicarbonate microclimate adjacent to surfacce epithelial
  • tight junctions in gastric glands
75
Q

mucus combines with phospholipids, electrolytes, and water to form a ?

A

gel layer

76
Q

the gel layer protects against:
