Surgical diseases of the Pancreas Flashcards
(46 cards)
the body and tail of the pancreas lie anterior to the
splenic artery and vein
Chief excretory channel
Duct of Wirsung
accessory duct
duct of santorini
Blood supply to the pancreas comes from multiple
branches from the _____ and _____
celiac and superior mesenteric
arteries
artery that supplies the body and tail of the pancreas
splenic artery
arteries that supply the head of the pancreas
superior and inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery
stimulates endocrine and exocrine secretion
parasympathetic
inhibits secretion
sympathetic system
responsible for exocrine secretion
acinar cells
Responsible for endocrine secretion
Islet cells
Hydrolyzes starch and glycogen to glucose, maltose,
maltotriose and dextrins
PANCREATIC AMYLASE
missense mutation on the cationic trypsinogen, or
PRSS1, results
premature, intrapancreatic
activation of trypsinogen
Activated to form chymotrypsin.
CHYMOTRYPSINOGEN
Secreted by the pancreas as a proenzyme that
becomes activated by trypsin.
PHOSPHOLIPASE A2
function of phospholipase A2`
Hydrolyzes phospholipids and, as with all lipases,
requires bile salts for its action
Hydrolyze neutral lipid substrates like esters of
cholesterol, fat-soluble vitamins, and triglycerides
CARBOXYLIC ESTER HYDROLASE AND
CHOLESTEROL ESTERASE
fxn of CARBOXYLIC ESTER HYDROLASE AND
CHOLESTEROL ESTERASE
Hydrolyze neutral lipid substrates like esters of
cholesterol, fat-soluble vitamins, and triglycerides
secrete glucagon
alpha cells
secrete insulin
β-cells
secrete somatostatin
delta cells
secrete ghrelin
epsilon cells
secrete PP
PP cells
function of insulin
Inhibits glycogenolysis, fatty acid breakdown, and
ketone formation, and stimulates protein synthesis
major stimulant of somatostatin
intraluminal fat
