|
-Cardia
-Fundus -Body -Pylorus |
|
Cardia
|
Surrounds superior opening of stomach
|
|
Fundus
|
Rounded portion; superior and left of cardia
|
|
Body
|
Inferior to fundus, large central portion
|
|
Pylorus
|
Connects stomach to duodenum
|
|
Greater curvature
|
Convex lateral border
|
|
Lesser curvature
|
Cancave medial border
|
|
Pyloric valve
|
(sphincter) Where stomach communicates w/small intestine at duodenum
|
|
Mucosa of stomach wall
|
Simple columnar epithelial cells
|
|
Rugae
|
in stomach wall; large folds (inside)
|
|
Gastric pits
|
In stomach wall; openings that extend into lamina propria; caontain gastric glands
|
|
Gastric glands
|
occur at the bottom of gastric pits; each gland consists of 4 types of secreting cells
|
|
Chief cell
|
(zymogenic)
|
|
Pepsigen
|
chief cell; inactive for of pepsin- pepsin + HCL= pepsin (enzyme that dig. protien)
|
|
Gastric lipase
|
Chief cell; splits fats in buttermilk; has limited role in adults
|
|
Parietal cells
|
(ocyntic)
|
|
Hydrochloric acid
|
Parietal cell; acts on pepsinogen to produce active enz. "pepsin"
|
|
Intrinsic factor
|
Needed for absorption of vitamin B12
|
|
Mucous cells
|
secrete mucous; also called mucous neck cells
|
|
Gastric juices
|
Consists of Chief(Zymogenic) cells, Parietal(oxyntic) cells, and Mucous cells
|
|
Enteroendocrine cells
|
(g cell); secrets hormones
|
|
Stomach gastrin
|
1. Stimulates growth of gastric cells
2. Secretes gastric juices 3. Increases stomach motility 4. Relaxes pyloric & iliocecal sphincters 5. Strengthen contraction of lower esophageal sphincter |
|
Submucosa of stomach
|
Areolar conn. tissue
|
|
3 layers of muscularis in stomach
|
outer layer = longitudinal
middle layer = circular inner layer = oblique |
|
Chyme
|
A soupy liquid resulting from mixing with digestive juices
|
|
Functions of stomach
|
1. Mixing waves
2. Storage 3. Digestion |
|
Mixing waves
|
gentle rippling peristaltic movements
|
|
Pepsin
|
From interaction of pepsinogen and HCL; digests protein
|
|
Gastric lipase
|
Works on fat in buttermilk in infants, limited in adults, pancreatic lipase is esp. important in adults
