Three Salivary Glands
Parotid
Submandibular (submaxillary)
Sublingual
Digestion in the mouth

Bolus is broken down by:
Salivary amylase (for carbs)
Lingual Lipase (for tryglycerides)
- diff than pancreatic lipase
Deglutination (swallowing)
Voluntary Stage (initiation)
Pharyngeal Stage (involuntary)
Esophageal Stage (involuntary)
** 1st stage ALWAYS voluntary
Esophagus

muscle components
upper 1/3 skeletal muscle

lower 2/3 smooth muscle
Stomach

Anatomy (4)
Cardia
Fundus
Body
Pylorus
3 phases of stimulation of gastric secretions
Cephalic (reflex)-peristalsis is stimulated
Gastric- " " "
Intestinal-motility is inhibited
Stomach Absorptions
Impermeable to most substances EXCEPT:
- water; -certain electolytes,
- drugs (aspirin); - alcohol
What stimulates stomach Motility?
(2)
1. parasympathetic activity
2. local distention
What inhibits stomach motility?
(2)
1. Low pH of stomach contents inhibit release of gastrin.
2. Feedback from duodenal overload.
Pancreas

Islets of Langerhaus
secrete hormones
Pancreatic Juice contains enzymes (4)

that break down 1. protein, 2. Carbohydrates, 3. Fat
1. Pancreatic Amylase
2. Chymotrypsin & carboxypeptidase
3. Pancreatic lipase
4. Ribonuclease & deoxyribonuclease
What do ea of the following Pancreatic Juices break down?
1. Pancreatic amylase; 2. Chymotrypsin & carboxypeptidase; 2. Pancreatic Lipase;
1. Carbohydrates
2. Proteins
3. Fat
What causes the pancreas to release the pancreatic juices? (amylases, lipase's, proteases)?
CCK, released from the duodenum, in response to partially digested materials
What causes the pancreas to release fluid high in HCO3?
SECRETIN, released from the duodenum, in response to acid entering from the stomach
Liver Anatomy
(3)
1. Rt & Lt. Lobes
2. Caudate and quadrate Lobes
3. Falciform Ligament
Types of Liver Cells and Function (2)
1. Hepatocytes-produce bile
2. Kupffer's cells-hapatic macrophages
What is stored in gallbladder and used to emulsify dietary lipids?
bile
Functions of liver:
1. synthesis of bile salts*
2. storage of vitamins*
3. activation of Vit D*
4. CHO, Prot & lIpid metabolism
5. Removal of drugs & hormones
6. Excretion of bilirubin
Gallbladder Functions (2)
1. Stores & concentrates bile.
2. CCK stimulates ejection of bile from gallbladder.
Bile funtionality
cholesterol synthesizes bile acids, wh then are conjugated into bile salts which concentrate and form MICELLES
MICELLE
Formed from concentrated bile salts. These are water soluble spheres with a lipid soluble interior.
Function of Micelle
they provide a vehicle to transport lipid soluble materials in the aqueous medium of the bile fluid and the sm intestine
Micelle Function
vital in digestion, transport & the absorption of lipid soluble substances from the duodenum to the distal ileum
What happens to bile salts in the DISTAL ILEUM?
They are actively reabsorbed and recycled
What is insoluble in water but solubilized by bile salt micelles?
Phospholipids
Small Intestine is made up of: (3)


and extends from:
1. duodenum
2. jejunem
3. Ileum
*pyloric sphincter to ileocecal sphincter
Physiology of digestion in the SI
CHO->maltose->glucose
Sucrose->glucose+fructose
Lactose->glucose+galactose
Physiology of Absorption in the SI
Read in notes on p. 17
Tryglycerides break into
monoglycerides and FA's , req'd for absorption
Triglyceride breakdown
<-pancreatic lipases
Triglyceride <- bile Micelles
v
2 monoglycerides and FA;s
CHO Digestion
Salivary amylase begins process of breakdown, pancreatic amylase continues process in SI mostly in duodenum. Monosaccharide end products: glucos, galactose and fructos are absorbed in SI.
Proteins
Pepsin begins the digestion of proteins in the stomach. In the SI, digestion contiues w/ the pancreatic proteases wh are req'd enzymes. End product is AA's & very small peptides
SECRETIN
released in duodenum, due to acid in the duodenum. Causes Pancreas to secrete HCO3 to neutralize the acid.
CCK
1. released in duodenum, DUE TO Fat in duod.
2.causes stomach secretion of pepsinogen from Chief Cells
3.Causes pancreatic enzyme secretions (amylase, lipases and proteases.
4. causes bile to be ejected from gall bladder.
Digestive product of fats taken up by the MICELLES in the intestinal lumen
FAT SOLUBLE VITAMINS

A,D,E, AND K
Anatomy of Large Intestine
Extends from the ileocecal sphincter to the anus.
Subdivisions are the cecum, colon, rectum and anal canal.
Absorption & Feces Formation in the LI
The LI absorbs water, electrolytes, and vitamins. Feces consist of water, inorganic salts, epithelial cells, bacteria and undigested foods
Functions in ileum
Its function is mainly to absorb IF, vitamin B12 and bile salts
