Q

Paneth cells

A

located at the base of the crypts of Lieberkuhn ; eosinophilic granules, secrete antimicrobial substances such as lysozyme.

4
Q

Chief Cells

A

cells in the stomach that releases pepsinogen and chymosin. Pepsinogen is activated into the digestive enzyme pepsin when it comes in contact with acid produced by gastric parietal cells (fundus)

5
Q

Parietal Cells

A

secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor. These cells are located in the gastric glands found in the lining of the fundus and in the body of the stomach.

6
Q

Secretin

A

Secreted by the neuroendocrine cells of the duodenum in response to chyme. stimulates intercalated ducts of the pancreas to produce large quantities of alkaline fluid (pH 8.0) rich in NaHCO3

7
Q

Trypsinogen

A

Converted to active form, trypsin by enterokinase produced by duodenal mucosa. Digestion of proteins in chyme.
