Q

What is increased with fatty acids, amino acids, and oral glucose?

A

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide

26
Q

What is increased with stomach distention/alkalinization, amino acids (phenylalanine and tryptophan), peptides, and vagal stimulation but decreased by stomach pH <1.5?

A

Gastrin

27
Q

What is increased in fasting state?

A

motilin

28
Q

Name a motilin receptor agonist used to stimulate intestinal peristalsis?

A

Erythromcin

29
Q

What is increased by acid and fatty acids in lumen of duodenum?

A

Secretin

30
Q

What is increased by acid but decreased by vagal stimulation?

A

somatostatin

31
Q

What is increased by distention and vagal stimulation and decreased by vagal input?

A

VIP

32
Q

What are the symptoms of a VIPoma?

A
  • Watery diarrhea
  • Hypokalemia
  • Achlorhydria
33
Q

What is increased by histamine, Ach, and gastrin but decreased by somatostatin, GIP, prostaglandin and secretin?

A

gastric acid

34
Q

What is increased by vagal stimulation and local acid?

A

pepsin

35
Q

What is increased by pancreatic and biliary secretion with secretin?

A

HCO3-

36
Q

What are two pathological things that can lead to increased gastrin?

A
  • Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

- Chronic PPI use

37
Q

What is glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide known as?

A

GIP

38
Q

Why is GIP significant for oral v. IV glucose?

A

Oral glucose load used more rapidly than IV due to GIP

39
Q

Why is secretin important?

A

Increases HCO3- to allow pancreatic enzymes to function in duodenum

40
Q

What is one of the underlying causes of achlasia?

A

Loss of NO secretion leading to increased LES tone

41
Q

Why does atropine not block G cells?

A

vagal stimulation of G cells is through GRP not Ach (like with parietal cells)

42
Q

Where is gastrin released?

A

into circulation (NOT into stomach)
