Q

how did the zymogen (inactivated protein) of pancreas becomes enzyme towards duodennum?

A

exocrine secretion enters pancreatic duct into lumen:
- trypsinogen is cut by enterokinase into trypsin
- activates its fellow zymogens into enzymes

chymotrypsinogen ->: chymotrypsin
procarboxypeptidase -> carboxypeptidase (protein)
prophospholipase -> phospholipase (phospholipid)
procolipase -> colipase (not ennzyme, bt lipid_

-> converges into common bile duct
-> into duodenum

Q

what is the relation btw bile solution and gallbladder?

A

gallbladder stores bile solution from liver -> becomes concentrated
muscular contracts (by CKK & neural activation) to secretes it
enters into duodenum through opening of Sphincter of Oddi

23
Q

GIP

A

glucose-dependent insulinotrophic peptide

endocrine cells of SI

24
Q

further compare glucagon vs insuylin

A

(-) from alpha cells vs beta cells
raises blood sugar by releasing storage glucose into blood
lower blood sugar by releasing it into cells

(+) both endocrine secretions of pancreas
both hmn

25
function of liver
makes bile salt (lipid digestion) / excretes cholesterol & bilirubin / metabolizes carb, protein & lipid
26
without the saliva, how will you be impacted?
cant lubricate and help chew the food damage mouth & teeth less aid in speech
27
what is the stimulus for cephalic, gastric, intestinal phase?
cephalic: sight, smell, taste of food gastric: presence of bolus in stomach, am.a intestinal: presence of chyme in intestine
28
effect of intestinal phase's inhibition on gastic phase?
decreased secretion & motility of stomach less gastric emptying
29
hormonal control of intestinal phase
< secretion in: intestine pancrease: HCO3- @ ductal cells - secretin cells digested enzymes - @ acinar cells - CCK insulin - @ beta cells - by GIP
30
describe the cephalic phase:
stimulus: slight, smell & taste of food neural: activate submucosal plexux & myenteric plexus < secretion in salivary glands, stomach & intestine < motility in stomach & SI
31
why do we say for Gastric Phase, Gastrin?
part of hormonal control < secretion of stomach intestine < motility of stomach, more gastric emptying
32
outline the process of carb digestion
@ mouth: salivary annylase breaks starch -> maltose @ stomach: HCl inactivates salivary amylase @ SI, lactase breaks lactose / maltase breaks maltose / sucrase breaks sucrose @ pancrease, release pancreatic amylase breaks startch -> maltose
33
T or F? correct if F with lactose: lactose -> glycogen + glucose with maltose: maltase -> glucose _ glucose with sucrase: sucrose -> galactose + fructose
all F with lactase: lactose ->galactose + glucose with maltase: maltose -> glucose + glucose with sucrase: sucrose -> glucose + fructose
34
essential am.a is made in the body and therefore, can be derived from food. is that T?
F essential am.a cannot be made in the body; MUST be derived from food
35
how does endopeptidase and exopeptidase work tgt?
endopeptidase has pepsin, trypsin and chymotrypsin to cut polypetides exopeptidase has aminopeptidase to cut amino end of protein and carboxypeptidase to cut carboxy at the end do this until reduced to ama, and di- tri- peptide
36
what would the chemical composition of unsaturated fat be composed of?
it would be triglyceride: 3 fatty acids and glycerol and there would be double bonds
37
fat-soluble vs water-soluble vitamins?
fat-soluble: D, E, K, A -> found within micelle water-soluble: vit B & C -> need protein carrier
38
describe the protein absorption in intestinal cell
using Na gradient, symporter carries am.a across luminal also carries di- tri- peptide -> with peptidase, breaks into am.a - uniporter collects all am.a and transport into blood there's Na+/K+ ATPase at the basolateral
39
describe the carb absorption in intestinal cell
uniporter carries fructose across the luminal using Na+ gradient, symporter carries glucose & galactose across the luminal uniporter collects all monosacc & transports into blood there's Na+/K+ ATPase at the basolateral
40
outline the fat digestion
though present in the mouth, lingual lipase doesnt work at the stomach, HCl activates the lingual lipase and gastric lipase pancreas makes pancreatic lypase (+ coliipase) while liver provides bile salt
41
how does bile salt aid in lipid digestion
since bile salt is both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, coats the micelle micelle can now interact with they hydrophilic lipase -> colipase pushes bile salt apart as lipase enters
42
micelle bring _____ & ___ ___ and difuse across [redacted'] -> repackage into _____ -> enters lymphatic vessel via _____
monoglycerides / fatty acids / intestinal cell's phospholipid bilayer choloromicron exocytosis
43
fill in the blank hepatic ___ carrying oxygenated blood and hepatic _____ _____ carrying ___-____ blood merge at [redacted] at [redacted] drain into the _____ leave the liver towards art via _____
hepatic artery portal vein nutrient-rich sinusoids liver ventral vein hepatic vein
44
list the steps invovled in fed state
1. glycolysis 2. glycogenesis 3. lipogenesis 4. protein anabolism
45
list the steps involved in fasted state
1. glycogenolysis 2. gluconeogenesis 3. lipolysis 4. ketogenesis 5. in extreme fasted state, protein catabolism
46
describe gluconeogenesis
liver forms glucose from non-carb sources: glycerol lactic acid + am.a via pyruvic acid towards glucose glucose -> glucose 6-PO4 -> glyceraldehyde 3-PO3 -> pyruvic acid
47
what happens when once ATP is depleted?
glycogenolysis occurs glycogen in liver storage breaks into glucose-6PO4 -> glucose for most tissues, including the brain glycogen for muscle storage does the same for skelemtal muscle
48
how can you create triglycerides w.o using lipid sources? how many sources are there?
via lipogenesis, glucose -> glyceraldehyde 3-PO4 -> pyruvic acid -> ACoA glycerol (links to glyceraldehyde 3-PO4) combines w/ f.a (links to ACoA) to make trig in liver & adipose tissue extra am.a via ACoA triggers trig propduction too
49
postive and negative abt ketogenesis?
heart and kidney cortext prefer ketone bodies to create ATP bt too much ketone bodies < blood acidity
50
compare protein anabolism vs protein catabolism (include 1 special fact!)
fed state vs extreme fasted state protein synthesis from am. a vs breakdown protein into am.a for aTP in skeletal muscle vs liver can convert am.a into f.a / ketone bodies/ glucose
51
what happens in lipolysis?
breakdown of trig into glycerol and f.t glycerol enters gluconeogenesis: glycerol -> glucose 6-PO4 -> towards glucose f.a VIA ACoa into ketone bodies for ATP converts to ACoA to enter citric acid cyle for ATP
52
some forms of protein? 1. enzymes 2. ____ 3. structural components 4. ______
hmn/ transporter
53
how does brush border enzyme help with protein digestion?
by creating aminopeptidase, dipeptidase and enterokinase
