Which cells secrete Secretin, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Secreted by S cells in duodenum in response to increased acid and fat. Causes secretion of bicarb by Brenner's glands, decreased gastric acid, and secretion of bile.
Which cells secrete CCK, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Secreted by I cells in duodenum and jejunum in response to FAs and AAs. Causes increased pancreatic enzyme secretion and gallbladder contraction.
Which cells secrete gastrin, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Secreted by G cells in the stomach antrum in response to stomach distension, peptides, & vagal stim. Increases H+ secretion by parietal cells, stimulates growth of gastric mucosa, & increases gastric motility.
Which cells secrete VIP, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Secreted by the pancreas? in response to distension & vagal stim. Decreased by adrenergic input. Functions to increase intestinal water & electrolyte secretion, & relax intestinal sm muscle & sphincters.
Which cells secrete motilin, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Produced in the small intestine in fasting state. Serves to increase intestinal motility
Which cells secrete somatostatin, what is it secreted in response to and what is it's function?
Secreted by D cells in pancreas & GI mucosa in response to low pH. Secretion decreased by vagal stim. Functions centrally to inhibit GH & TSH release as well as suppresses release of most other GI hrmnes.
What is the mechanism of EHEC's toxin?
Shiga-like AB toxin. B toxin facilitates entry into cells and A portion prevents t-RNA from binding to 60s
What is the mechanism of ETEC's toxin?
Same as V. cholerae, increases intracellular cAMP causing fluid efflux from cells
What is the mechanism of C. diff's toxin?
2 toxins A & B, Toxin B depolymerizes actin filaments
