  • Front
  • Back

Gastrointestinal tract

Tube from month to anus

Accessory organs of diguestion

Teeth, tounge, salivary glands


Pancreas


Liver, gallbladder

Digestive system processes (4)

Ingestion


Diguestion


Absorption


Defecation

4 layer of GI tract

Mucosa


Submuscosa (areolar CT)


Muscluaris externa (causes motility)


Serosa



Enteric nervous system

Motility

Mixing and movement of food in GI tract

Muscosa 3 layers

Epithelium with goblet cells


(Stat. Sq. @ ends, simple columnar)



Lamina propria (areolar CT)



Musculairs mucosa (allows movement of GI tract, ONLY in GI tract)


Entric nervous system

Run diguestion without brain



Myenteric plexus (control muscularis externa)



Submuscous plexus (controls mucosal glands and muscles)

Salivary glands

3 pairs


Parotid (inferior and anterior to ears)


Submandibular (floor of mouth)


Sublingual (below tounge)

Dentition

Central incisor (1)


Lateral incisor (1)


Canine (1)


Pre molars (0/2)


Molars (2/3)


Crown

Above gum


Enamel overlay (acellular, highly calcified)

Neck of tooth

Enamel + cementum boundary (gums)

Esophagus muscularis externa

Upper 1/3 - skeleton muscle


Middle - mix


Lower - smooth muscle

Stomach regions

Cardiac region (first bit)


Fundus (above esophageal entrance)


Body


Pyloric region

Gastric glands

Formed by epithelium of stomach mucosa



Secret gastric juice to lumen

Gastric gland cells

Chief cells (pepsinogen & gastric lipase)



Parietal cells (HCI and intrinsic factor)



Goblet cells



G cells (gastrin, a hormone;to blood)

Intrinsic factor

Reason we must have stomach, allows for B12 breakdown/absorption

Rugae

Folds of the muscosa and sub mucosa due to contraction of muscularis mucosa



Allow for expansion

Small intestine

Duodenum (secret alkaline muscus)



Jejunum (middle)



Ileum (prevents infection if sm. In. And bacteria from entering the blood)


Peyers patches

Lymph nodules in ileum

Plicae circulars

Submucosa thrown into folds

Villi vrs. Microvilli in sm. Intestine

Villi - larger, projections of mucosa and contain capillaries and lacteals



Microvilli brush border on enterocytes (simple columnar)



*both extend into lumen

Hormones in GI tract

Secret (secreted by S cells)



Cholecystokinin (secreted by C cells)


Pancreas 2 parts

Exocrine portion


-acinar cells (secret digestion enzyme)


- duct cells (make up duct)



Endocrine portion


- secret hormones like insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar

Islets of langerhans

A.k.a endocrine portion of pancreas

Liver 4 lobes

Right,


left,


caudate,


quadrate

Liver job/cells

Hepatocytes



Filters material from GI tract


Produces bile



Drains into hepatic duct

Gallbaldder

Rugae (no submucosa)


Enzymes, alkaline fluid and bile



Drains into cystic duct

(Covers transverse colon and sm. Intestine and contains fat)



2. Lesser omentum


(Suspense stomach from liver)


Mesentery

Double layer of parietal peritoneum



Suspense sm. Intestine from cavity wall


Retroperitoneal
