What is the anatomy in stomach?

Serosa, muscularis (longitudinal, circular, oblique), submucosa, mucosa

7
New cards

Anatomy of stomach: Submucosa and mucosa are folded into _______, which disappear as stomach volume increases

rugae

8
New cards

Anatomy of stomach: Mucosa lining is simple columnar epithelium that forms invaginations called _________

gastic pits

9
New cards

Anatomy of stomach: Gastric pits are openings for _____________ that secrete acids and other substances

gastric glands

10
New cards

What are the epithelial cells of the stomach?

Surface mucous cells, mucous neck cells, parietal cells, chief cells, enteroendocrine cells

11
New cards

Epithelial cells of stomach: On surface, around gastric pit + produce alkaline mucous (protects and prevents ulcers) + connected by tight junctions- barrier to acids?

Surface mucous cells

12
New cards

Epithelial cells of stomach: At deepest portions of gastric pit; near openings to gastric glands produce mucous?

Mucous neck cells

13
New cards

Epithelial cells of stomach: Produce HCI?

parietal cells

14
New cards

Epithelial cells of stomach: Produce pepsinogen & gastric lipase?

Chief cells

15
New cards

Epithelial cells of stomach: Produce regulatory hormones that influence secretion or motility? (ex. gastrin- stimulates HCI production by parietal cells upon distention of stomach)

Enteroendocrine cells

chyme

17
New cards

Types of secretion in stomach?

Mucus, HCI, and digestive enzymes
