Summary Introduction

To determine:

How and where the three important digestive system hormones coordinate during digestion.

Introduction:

Gastrin is secreted by gastrin cells in the pyloric region of the stomach. It stimulates gastric glands to secrete and release the gastric juice in the stomach. This hormone also stimulates gastric mobility. Secretin is secreted by the epithelium of duodenum. It helps in increased secretion of the bile. Cholecystokinin stimulates the gallbladder to release bile and pancreas to secrete the digestive enzymes in the pancreatic juice.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
draw and explain how Na-K, ATPase drives intestinal nutrient absorption.
Describe the cellular mechanisms of Ca++ absorption in the small intestine.
Describe the main actions in the mouth, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine during lipid digestion and absorption. Describe the substrate(s) and product(s) of each of the give major enzymes we discussed: lingual lipase, gastric lipase, pancreatic lipase, phospholipase A2, and carboxyl ester lipase. Describe emulsification of lipids. Why does this need to happen for digestion and absorption to occur? Describe how lipids are absorbed at the apical membrane. Describe lipid transport in the enterocyte. Describe lipid transport across the basolateral membrane and into circulation. Define the brain-gut axis and give examples of how lipids impact. Give examples of symptoms related to malabsorption of lipids. Give examples of diseases/conditions involving malabsorption of lipids.
