GI ML: 4 Flashcards
(44 cards)
What are the three functional regions of the stomach
-fundus
-body
-antrum
What is the fundus job
it has a flexible size and it is smooth and weak to allow it to stretch for the bolus
What is the job of the lower esophageal sphincter?
prevention of reflux
What is the job of the body
secretes mucus, pepsinogen, and HCL and has notable rugae and is thicker and stronger
What is the job of the antrum
mixing and grinding, secretes mucus, pepsinogen and gastrin
What does the pyloric sphincter do?
controls stomach emptying
What is the first part of the small intestine
duodenum
What is the job of the stomach
it is a storage organ
What are gastric pits also known as
crypts
What do mucous cells secrete
mucus, bicarbonate secretion
What do parietal cells secrete
exocrine; acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor secretion
What do ECL cells secrete
histamine secretion (paracrine, so it will act on the parietal cell)
What do chief cells secrete
pepsinogen
What are the two endocrine cells and what do they secrete
D= somatostatin
G= gastrin
-both of these will act on paritel cells
What hormones will increase HCL secretion
gastrin, histamine, and ACh
The release of Ach will be triggered by what
ENS and para
What hormone inhibits HCl secretion
somatostatin
OCT anaracid tablets
neutralize HCL when produced
What are some examples of anatacids
TUMS, rolaids
Histamine blockers
act on histamine and block receptors, decrease amount of vesicles fusing, so decreases number of pumps
examples of histamin blockers
tagamet and zantac
Proton pump inhibitors
inhibit action of proton pumps so it reduces pumping; doesnt affect number of pumps but decreased HCl production
Examples of proton pump inhibitors
prilosec, nexium
Control of HCL secretion during the cephalic phase
increased HCL secretion due to parasymp nerves to enteric nervous system
