Surface Mucous Cells (Stomach)

Secrete insoluble alkaline mucous to protect stomach

Parietal Cells (Stomach)

Secrete HCl (antimicrobial) and intrinsic factor

Mucous Neck Cells (Stomach)

Secrete soluble acid mucous at meal times

Chief Cells (Stomach)

Secrete pepsinogen and gastric lipase

Gastrin Cells (Stomach)

Gastrin enters blood stream as hormone, stimulates secretion of acid and pepsinogen, increases muscle contractions, relaxes pyloric sphincter

Five Cells of Stomach Mucosa

Surface mucous cells, parietal cells, mucous neck cells, chief cells, gastrin cells

Four Regions of Stomach

Cardia, fundus, body, pylorus

Four Tunics of the Gut Tube

Mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa

Mucosa Consists of

Epithelium, lamina propria, lymphocytes, muscularis mucosae (circular, longitudinal)

Submucosa Consists of

Loose connective tissue, blood vessels, submucosal nerve plexus

Muscularis Externa Consists of

Inner circular muscles, outer longitudinal muscles, myenteric nerve plexus

Serosa Consists of

Bed of connective tissue, outer mesothelium

Five Tooth Layers

Enamel, dentine, pulp, cementum, peridontal ligament

Three Tongue Muscle Types

Longitudinal, vertical, transverse

Fungiforms

Have taste buds

Filiforms

Rough for cleaning and moving food

Circumvalate

Big papilli with large amounts of taste buds on them

Submandibular

Salivary gland secreting mucous and serous fluid

Parotid

Salivary gland secreting serous fluid

Sublingual

Salivary gland secreting mucous

Adventitia

Fibrous layer for organs which do not have a serosa e.g. oesophagus

Hepatocytes

Liver cells; glycogen storage, recycling of red blood cells, bile synthesis etc.

Liver Sinusoid

Blood vessel with fenestrated endothelial cell which acts as filter, allowing through lymph not RBCs

Liver Lobules

Plates of hepatocytes stacked together in hexagonal shape

Hepatic Triad to Lobule

Branches of hepatic artery, hepatic portal vein, and tributary of bile duct

Bile Duct

Flows to gall bladder

Bile Canaliculus

Bile leaves hepatocytes through these

Acini (sng. Acinus)

"Leaves" of pancreas, contain secretory cells, lead into intercalacted duct

Intercalacted Ducts

"Twig" of pancreas, lead to interlobar ducts

Interlobar Ducts

"Small branches", lead to main pancreatic duct

Main Pancreatic Duct

Releases pancreatic juice into duodenum

Three Small Intestine Regions

Duodenum, jejunum, ileum

Plicae

Circular folds, covered with mucous, core of submucosa

Villi

Covering is epithelium, core is lamina propia

Microvilli

Form "brush border" on individual absorptive cells

Columnar Absorptive Cells (Small Intestine)

Absorb the small molecules resulting from digestion

Goblet Cells (S.I.)

Secrete mucous

Enteroendocrine Cells (S.I)

Secrete the hormone secretin into capillaries and lamina propria

Paneth Cells (S.I)

Secrete bactericidal enzyme lysozyme and are phagocytic

Ileocecal Valve

Controls intermittent flow of chyme from ileum to cecum

Large Intestine Has No Villi but has

Many intestinal glands/crypts

Large Bacterial Content

Colon

Haustra

Sac like pockets of intestinal tube

Mucosa of Colon

Columnar absorptive cells, goblet cells, white blood cells

Rugae

Longitudinal folds of the stomach (gastric folds)

Colon Regions

Ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid

Lacteal

Lymph vessel within each villus

Enterocytes

Columnar absorptive cells
