What are the 3 major glands in the stomach?
Cardiac
Pyloric
Oxyntic
What do the cardiac glands do?
Secrete mucus to protect stomach lining
What do Pyloric glands do?
Contain G-cell which secrete Gastrin --> gastric emptying --> HCL secretion
What 2 cell types does the oxyntic glands have and what do they do?
Parietal: HCL secretion
Chief: Pepsinogen secretion
What 3 mechanisms regulate HCl secretion?
Gastrin --> CCK receptors on parietal cells --> increased Ca+
Ach --> muscarinic receptors --> increased Ca+
Histamine --> base level HCl secretion
What are the 2 major functions of the pancreas?
Produce digestive enzymes and bicarb
What 3 digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas?
Proteolytic- protein breakdown
P amylase- carb breakdown
P lipase- fat breakdown
How is bicarb secreted and in what cells does this occur?
Ductal cells
H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3--> H+ + CO3-
CO3- moves into lumen in exchange for Cl-
What 3 mechanisms regulate pancreatic secretion?
CCK- regulate secretion of digestive enzymes
Ach- regulate secretion of digestive enzymes
Secretin- regulates release of bicarb
Follow the pathway of bile, including the enterohepatic circulation, starting with the hepatocytes
Hepatocytes--> bile canaliculi--> bile ducts --> common bile duct --> gall bladder --> common bile duct--> Sphincter of Oddi --> duodenum --> reabsorbe in ileum --> portal blood system --> hepatocytes
What are the 2 components of bile?
Billirubin - broken down hemoglobin
Bile acids
What is digestion vs. absorption
digestion- breakdown of complex molecules into simple ones
absorption- transfer of simple molecules from lumen through enterocytes and into blood or lymph
What are the primary functions of the duodenum, jejunum, and ilium respectively?
Duodenum- absorption of nutrients
Jejunum- absorption of nutrients, water, and ions
Ileum- absorbs water, ions, and bile
What are the crypts of lieberkuhn?
Contain stem cell that can become absorptive epithelial cells or CCK secreters
Where does the greatest absorption occur in the microvilli?
apical tips
How are carbs digested?
Salivary amylase --> pancreatic amylase --> brush border enzymes --> monosaccharide
How are carbs absorbed?
Lumen --> SGLT1 (moves glucose and galactose w/ Na+) + Glut 5 (moves fructose) --> Epithelial cells --> Glut 2 (moves fructose, galactose, and glucose into blood)
How are proteins digested?
Pepsin in stomach --> Trypson, chymotrypsin, carboxy peptidase in duodenum and jejunum --> AA's
How are proteins absorbed?
Sodium co-transport (similar to carbs)
How are lipids digested?
Lingual lipase in mouth --> gastric lipase in stomach --> pancreatic lipase --> fat droplets + bile = micelles
What are triglycerides broken down into?
monoglycerides + 2 FFA
What are cholesterol esters broken down into?
choletseral + 1 FFA
What are phospholipids broken down into?
Lysolecithin + 1 FFA
How are fat droplets absorbed?
Micelles diffuse to enterocyte --> bile stays behind --> once in enterocytes, resynthesized and accumulated into vecicles --> Chylomicron --> exocytosis
What does VLDL do?
transport cholesterol to lymph then to blood
How are fat soluble vitamins absorbed?
In small intestine --> chylomicrons --> lymph --> blood
What are some examples of fat soluble vitamins?
A, D, E, K
How are water soluble vitamins absorbed?
Simple diffusion or specific transporters
What are some examples of water soluble vitamins?
C, B12
Maldigestion vs. Malabsorption
maldigestion- enzyme insufficiency
malabsorption- inability to absorb broken down products
What do goblet cells do?
secrete mucus in intestine (primarily small intestine)
How and where is Na+ absorbed?
Primarily in jejunum
Monosaccharide and AA's bring Na+ into epithelial cells via cotransporters
How and where is Cl- absorbed?
Passively.
In jejunum, Cl- follows Na+ to create charge balance
In ileum and colon, bicarb exchanged for Cl- in epithelial cells
How is K+ absorbed?
passively
How is Ca+ and Mg+ absorbed?
depends on Ca+ ATPase, occurs in proximal intestine
Mg+ competes with Ca+ for uptake
What does vitamin D3 do?
Increases Ca+ transporters
What is the major role of the kidney?
maintain composition and volume of ECF
How is the ECF fluid balance maintained?
Input = output
Primary input (ingestion)
Primary output (breathing and urine)
Trace the route for excretion starting in afferent capillaries
afferent capillaries --> glomerulus --> bowman's capsule --> PCT --> loop of henley --> DCT --> collecting duct --> ureter
Discuss the renin-angiotensin system
Angiotensinogen in liver --> converted by renin into angiotensin I --> converted into angiotensin II in lungs --> vasoconstriction
Where is renin produced?
Juxtoglomerular cells
Where does most glomerular filtration occur?
Basal lamina
Driving force for filtration (GFR) is calculated by?
GFR = k (Pgc - Pt - TTgc)
or = k x net filtration pressure
How do the kidneys filter so much with such a small driving pressure?
large surface area
How is GFR regulated?
Autoregulation
As MAP decreases afferent arterials dilate to keep Pgc constant
Changes are made locally, not at baroreceptors
How is GFR maintained in hypovolemic shock?
Barroreceptor mediated
Both afferent and efferent smooth muscle in arterials constric
What happens when you become hyponatremic?
--> decrease ECF osmolarity --> decrease ECF volume --> decrease MAP --> increase renin --> increase Angiotensin II --> increase aldosterone --> Na+ reabsorption
What happens to ECF in the case of severe sweating and what do the kidneys do?
sweating --> ECF volume --> decrease MAP --> baroreceptor activation --> secretion of ADH by posterior pituitary
Discuss diarrhea and recovery from diarrhea in terms of volume and osmolarity
Diarrhea --> 3L ECF volume loss --> increase ADH
Recovery from diarrhea --> 2L of H20 ingested --> decrease in ECF osmolarity --> decreases ADH release --> secretion of H2O
How is K+ regulated?
K+ filtered --> K+ reabsorbed --> K+ secreted
Elevated K+ in ECF --> increased aldosterone secretion --> increase Na+/K+ pump in DCT --> K+ secretion
