Test 2: 5 stomach Flashcards
— part of the stomach secretes mucin only
cardia
surface is foveolar cells
— part of the stomach secretes pepsinogen and HCL and mucin
fundus/body
— part of the stomach secrete mucin and gastrin
pylorus
G cells produce — and are found
gastrin
pylorus of stomach
chief cells produce
pepsinogen
parietal cells produce
HCl
foveolar cell produce
mucus and bicarb
found on the surface of the cardia
gastric mucosal barrier is made of what 4 things
- Mucous “gel” secretions
* Lubricates & protects from self- digestion - Bicarbonate ions (HCO
* Buffers HCl (acid neutralization) - Replacement cells (every 3-5d)
- BLOOD FLOW
– Brings O2 and energy for cell growth
prostaglandin controls
secretions (bicarb and mucus)
cell turnover
microvascular blood flow
erosion in stomach
a superficial mucosal defect limited to the mucosa/lamina propria
can bleed
ulcer in stomach
a deep mucosal defect that extends through the epithelium into the submucosa/wall
acute ulcers will look
Red-to-brown mucosal depression
– Active bleeding +/- fibrin layer
“Coffee ground” digested blood common
chronic stomach ulcers will look
raised tan “indurated” crater-like
tan base from re-epithelialization
+/- active hemorrhage (if deep ulcer)
sequelae of ulcer
Bleeding→ anemia→ “internal exsanguination”
Transmural perforation → septic peritonitis
Healing & Fibrous scar
→ dysmotility or outflow obstruction→ impaction
chronic ulcer
gastric ulcers can be caused by — parietal/chief cell secretion or by — in the mucosal barrier
increased (HCl and pepsinogen)
decreased
clinical signs of gastric ulcer in dogs and cats
vomiting, inappetance,
abdominal pain, anemia, melena
clinical signs of gastric ulcer in cattle
partial→ complete anorexia,
decreased milk production, melena, palpaple discomfort (+ grunt test)
clinical signs of gastric ulcers in horses
anorexia, poor
performance, bruxism (Grinding of the teeth)
clinical signs of gastric ulcers in pigs
anorexia, peracute death- ulcer erodes major blood vessel and bleeds out
5 causes of gastric ulcers
Vascular Compromise
Dietary Disturbances
Trauma/toxic
Neoplasms
Infectious/inflammatory (GASTRITIS)
3 causes of vascular compromise that leads to gastric ulcers
Pharmacologic (NSAIDS, Corticosteroids)
Supraphysiologic stress (nor-epi/epi)
Displacements - stomach twist and cut off blood supply
2 causes of trauma/toxic causes of gastric ulcers
– Foreign bodies
– Caustic (exogenous or endogenous/systemic)
NSAIDs cause — inhibition
COX 1 and 2
inhibit thromboxane and prostaglandin production
