esophageal branch

36
Q

whenever CCK is released from the duodenum, what is its effect on the stomach?

A

it is going to limit the contraction of the stomach and increase the distensibility

37
Q

what hormones increase the action potentials and force of gastric contractions?

A

gastrin and motilin

38
Q

what hormones decrease the action potentials and force of the gastric contractions?

A

secretin and GIP

39
Q

What effect do segmentation contractions in the intestine have on gastric emptying?

A

they are going to inhibit gastric emptying

40
Q

when the duodenum senses acid, what does it secrete?

A

secretin

41
Q

when the duodenum senses fats, what does it secrete?

A

CCK and GIP

42
Q

when the duodenum senses amino acids/ peptides, what does it secrete?

A

gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP)

43
Q

what are the effects of secretin, CCK, and GIP on gastric emptying?

A

they will decrease gastric emptying

44
Q

what plays a significant role in the migrating motor complex (MMC)?

A

motilin

45
Q

what effect does serotonin have on intestinal contractions?

A

it stimulates it

46
Q

what effect does epinephrine released from the adrenal glands have on intestinal contraction?

A

inhibits contractions

47
Q

what is the innervation of the internal anal sphincter?

A

pelvic splanchnic nerve

48
Q

what is the innervation of the external anal sphincter?

A

somatic pudendal nerve

49
Q

what is the rectosphincteric reflex?

A

as the rectum fills with feces the smooth muscle wall of the rectum contracts and the internal anal sphincter relaxes

50
Q

what is an example of a non-absorbable bile-acid binding resin?

A

cholestyramine

51
Q

what induces the increase of the rate of bile acid synthesis?

A

7-alpha hydroxylase

52
Q

how does the elimination of tylenol normally occur?

A

through the conjugation with glucuronic acid or sulfate

53
Q

what happens when the capacity for normal conjugation of tylenol is overwhelmed?

A

A

glutathione

55
Q

what can be given as an antidote to acetaminophen poisoning?

A

N-acetyl cysteine

Q

what is the effect of CCK on the pancreas?

A

CCK is going to induce the release of pancreatic enzymes into the duodenal lumen

Q

what is the effect of secretin on the pancreas?

A

it is going to induce the secretion of HCO3- from the pancreatic cells into the duodenum
