Apex- GI hormones and barrier pressure Flashcards

1
Q

T/F: Somatostatin is associated with zollinger-ellison syndrome

Q

When food enters the stomach, what hormone is secreted to increase stomach acid and stimulate chief cells to secrete pepsinogen.

what does pepsinogen do in the presence of stomach acid

A

Gastrin

it’s converted to pepsin, which aids in protein digestion

Q

What GI hormone tells the pancreas to secrete bicarb and the liver to secrete bile

site of production - what cells

what stimulates the release of this enzyme

A

Secretin

S- Cells in the Small Intestin

acid in the duodneoum

Q

What GI hormone is stimulated by food in the duodneum and results in gallbladder contraction (bile release) and pancreatic enzyme secretion

where is it produced (what cells )

A

Cholecystokinin

Chole = GB
kinin = move

I cells in the small intestine

Q

What GI hormone increases insuin release, decreaes agastric acid secretion and motility

what stimulates it’s release

what is it released from (what cells)

A

Gastric inhibitory peptide

food in the duodenum

K-Cells
Small intenstine

Q

What GI hormone is the universal off switch for digestion?

what stimulates it

what cells secrete it and where

A

Somatostatin

food in gut, gastrin, CCK

D-Cells (d=death of digestion)

from pancreatic islet sells, stomach, and small intestine

Q

Site of production of the following hormones: match:

-Gastrin
-Secretin
-Cholecystokinin
-Gastric Inhibitory peptide
-Somatostatin

I-cells, K-cells, G-cells, S-sells, D-cells

A

-Gastrin + G-cells (stomach)
-Secretin + S-cells (Small intestine)
-Cholecystokinin + I-cells (small intestine)
-Gastric Inhibitory peptide + K-cells (small intestin)
-Somatostatin + D cells (small intestine, stomach, panceratic islet)

Gastrin- G, easy
Secretin + S easy
Chole + I –> I have GB issues
Gastric inhibitory - K (K i think of as inhibitory)
Somatostatin + D (death to all GI function)

Q

The likely of reflux is determined by what

A

barrier pressure

LES pressure - Intragastric pressure

the higher the barrier pressure, the lower the likihood of reflux
strong barrier = low reflux

Q

Barrier pressure is reduced by things that (decrease/increase) LES tone or (decrease/increase) intragastric pressure

A

reduced barrier pressure = increased risk of reflux

-things that decrease LES tone
things that increase intragastric pressure

Q

Decrease/Increase LES tone or intragastric pressure:

Q

Decrease/Increase LES tone or intragastric pressure:
Pregnancy

A

decreases LES tone and intragastric pressure

both decrease barrier pressure, increase risk of reflux

barrier pressure = LES presure - intragastric presssure

Q

Decrease/Increase LES tone or intragastric pressure:
Metoclopramide

A

INCREASES LES TONE! (Outlier)

increased LES tone = decreased risk of reflux

Q

T/F: Sux does not affect barrier pressure

A

TRUE

increases LES tone AND increases intragastic pressure = 0 net change

does not increase risk of reflux
