  3. I. Stomach (25.3)—A. Introduction and gross anatomy

  4. § Introduction-- the stomach • Location/size-- • Upper left abdominal cavity— • Volume– 50 mL when empty and 1-2 L after a typical meal. • Functions– • Primarily as a food ____________ organ • Liquefies the food and begins the chemical digestion of proteins and fat • End result: Chyme–

  5. § Gross Anatomy (stomach) • Lesser curvature— • Greater curvature— • Four regions— Fig. 25.12 a-b • Cardiac region (cardia)– inside the cardiac orifice • Fundic region (fundus)— • Body (corpus)– inferior to the cardiac orifice; greatest part of the organ • Pyroric region– narrower pouch at the inferior; subdivided into antrum and pyloric canal

  6. Figure 25.12b

  7. I. Stomach—B. Cell types and their secretions

  8. § The stomach wall • Structures from the outermost layer: • Three muscle layers– muscularis externa • Gastric rugae– Wrinkles formed by mucosa and submucosa • Gastric pits– depressions in mucosa • Lined with ____________ epithelium • Tubular glands (cardiac, pyloric, and gastric glands) open into the pits • Cell types– Addressed shortly . . . • Fig. 25.13 a-b

  9. Gastric/pyloric glands of the gastric pits (next slide)

  10. Tubular glands differ depending on areas.

  11. § Cell types of the tubular glands • Mucous cells– secrete mucus, predominate in the cardiac and pyloric glands • Regenerative (stem) cells– in the base of the pit and neck of the gland; function— • Parietal cells– mostly in the upper half of the gastric gland; secrete hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor • Chief cells– most numerous and only in gastric glands; secrete chymosin and lipase in infancy; _________________ later on • Enteroendocrine cells– G cells included

  12. § Gastric secretions--HCl • 2-3 L of gastric juice per day--mainly water, HCl, and pepsin • HCl – by parietal cells: Fig. 25.14 • CO2 + water (CAH)  H2CO3 HCO3- + H+ • Chloride shift--HCO3- exchanges for chloride ions (Cl-) from the blood plasma • Alkaline tide– during digestion, high-pH blood • Functions of HCl: • Activates enzymes— • Kills ingested bacteria • Converts Fe(3+) to Fe(2+)

  13. Chloride shift CAH

  14. § Gastric secretions—Intrinsic factor • Secretedby-- parietal cells • Chemistry--Glycoprotein • Function– essential to the absorption of ______________ by the small intestine • Disorder– pernicious anemia • Treatment– injection of vitamin B12 or take vitamin B12 and intrinsic factor orally

  15. § Gastric secretions--Pepsin • Chief cells secrete a zymogens (inactive proteins) called pepsinogen • Pepsinogen  pepsin (by HCl) • Functions of the pepsin— • Digests proteins: • Autocatalytic effect of pepsin: • Once pepsin is formed, pepsin can converts pepsinogen into MORE pepsin. Fig. 25.15

  16. Pepsin has two functions #1 and #2 below (as shown); HCl has function #3    What are functions 1-3, respectively?

  17. § Gastric digestion and absorption • Digestion— • Partially digest protein, starch, and fat • Most digestion and absorption occurs in the ________________ • Absorption— • Not significant amount • Absorb aspirin, some lipid-soluble drugs, and little alcohol

  18. I. Stomach—C. Protection of the stomach

  19. § protection of the stomach • 3 ways to protect against harsh acidic and enzymatic environment (Fig. x) • Mucous coat– thick, and alkaline mucus • Epithelial cell replacement– cells live 3-6 days; replaced by new cells in the gastric pits • ____________ — prevents gastric juice from seeping between them to damage CT of the lamina propria or beyond

  20. LUMEN  Passage prevented Mucus coating Impermeable to HCI   Tight junction Cells lining gastric mucosa (including those lining gastric pits and glands) Submucosa

  21. § peptic ulcer • Definition– erosion in the wall of digestive tract caused by pepsin and HCl • Locations– duodenum most common, also in _______________________ • Causes– mucosal defense is compromised; hypersecretion of acid/pepsin, Helicobacter pylori (bacterium), smoking, use of aspirin • Treatments-- Cimetidine (H2 blocker on parietal cells); antibiotics against Helicobacter (better) Fig. 25.16 a-b

  22. Normal Peptic ulcer

  23. I. Stomach—D. Regulation of the gastric function

  24. § Regulation of Gastric function • Three phases— overlap each other and all three can occur simultaneously • Cephalic phase– being controlled by the brain • Gastric phase– being controlled by the stomach • Intestinal phase– being controlled by the small intestine

  25. § Regulation of Gastric function • The cephalic phase– the stomach responds to sight, smell, taste, or thought of food. • Details– • mental inputs converge on the hypothalamus, to the medulla oblongata • vagus nerve fibers from medulla innervate the stomach to stimulate gastric activity. • Fig. 25.17

  26. § Regulation of Gastric function • The gastric phase– swallowed food activate gastric activity Details– Presence of food/proteins • Stretching– via a long vagovagal reflex and a short myenteric reflex • Through chemicals—Ach, gastrin, histamin • On parietal cells (by Ach, gastrin, histamin)- to secrete HCl • On chief cells (by Ach and gastrin)– pepsinogen • Digested protein: stimulates the G cells secrete even more gastrin Fig. 25.17 b and 25.18

  27. & Ach

  28. Fig. 25.18– Feedback control of gastric secretion. (+ feedback)

  29. § Regulation of Gastric function • The intestinal– duodenum responds to _______ and moderates gastric activity Details– • Initially enhances gastric secretion • Soon, acid and semidigested fats trigger the enterogastric reflex– to: • Inhibit vagal nuclei • Stimulate sympathetic neurons • Secretin and cholecystokinin inhibit gastric activity Fig. 25.17c
