GUT PHYSIOLOGY Introduction Dr. Jack Grider Rm 12-004 Sanger Hall 828-1853 [email protected] 2009 Digestive Processes ANATOMY Salivary Glands Liver Pancreas duodenum, jejunum, ileum Rectum red denotes a sphincter SPHINCTERS Summary of Gut Physiology Layers of the Gut Wall Control Mechanisms Fourth mechanism: autocrine Neural Control Mechanisms Hormone/Paracrine agent CNS Control - Extrinsic - Autonomic N.S. ANS Extrinsic Control Mechanisms P.S.N.S. is excitatory Extrinsic/Autonomic S.N.S. is inhibitory Sympathetic Nervous System Presynaptic Inhibition Sympathetic Nervous System Afferent/Sensory Neurons Extrinsic Primary Afferent REFLEXES THAT CONTROL GUT FUNCTION Long Arc Reflexes: PSNS SNS Extrinsic/Autonomic N.S. Long Arc Reflexes: PSNS Vago-Vagal Reflex CNS Extrinsic/Autonomic N.S. Long Arc Reflexes: SNS 3 pathways Extrinsic/Autonomic N.S. Long Arc Reflexes: SNS Intestino-Intestinal reflex Intrinsic/Enteric N.S. The “little brain” or “mini-brain” Intrinsic/Enteric N.S. Intrinsic/Enteric N.S. Short Arc Reflexes Intrinsic/Enteric N.S. • • • • • Many neuronal types IPANs (sensory) Intestinofugal Interneurons & motor neurons Transmitters: Ach/ TKs (~45%) VIP/NO (~25%) Enk, GRP, SSt,. ……. Hormonal Control Mechanisms Blood vessel Hormonal Control Mechanisms • • • • • All gut hormones are polypeptides All are amidated at C-terminal end Importance varies: proximal vs. distal Criteria Candidates vs. putative hormones Hormonal Control Mechanism Gastrin • Multiple forms: G-17, G-14, G-34 etc. • Tyr-12 can be sulfated (equal amounts) • C-terminal end • Synthesized in G-cells of terminal antrum, minor amounts in duodenum. • Released by: protein digestion products • antral distension(direct, vagal & ENS) • vagal stimulation (cephalic phase) Hormonal Control Mechanism Gastrin • • • • • • Physiological Action: Gastric HCl secretion growth of mucosa (trophic) stimulation of gastric motility (?) Negative feedback regulates release Pharmacological effects (impt. sulfation) Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome Hormonal Control Mechanism Cholecystokinin • Multiple forms: CCK-8, CCK-33, CCK-39, CCK-58 etc. • Sulfated in 7th AA from C-terminal end. • C-terminal end • Synthesized in I cells of duodenum (CCK-8, -4 in neurons of ENS and CNS) • Released by:protein digestion products monoglycerides/FFA, HCl (minor) Hormonal Control Mechanism Cholecystokinin • Physiological Action: – – – – pancreatic enzyme secretion gallbladder contraction mucosal growth & pancreatic growth (trophic) inhibit gastric emptying in high conc. Pharmacological Action Hormonal Control Mechanism Secretin • Single form: 27 AA • Structure similar to GIP, VIP, Glucagon • Released from S cell in proximal small intestine. • Released by: HCl monglyceride/FFA (minor) Hormonal Control Mechanism Secretin • Physiological Action – stimulate bicarbonate ion secretion from duodenal glands, duct cells of biliary and pancreatic system, – growth of pancreatic tissue – inhibits acid secretion and gastric emptying. Hormonal Control Mechanism Glucose-dependent Insulinotrophic Peptide (GIP) • Singular form: 42 AA • Structure similar to Secretin, VIP, Glucagon • Synthesized in K cells of proximal small intestine • Released by: nutrients in proximal small intestine. • Physiological action: Stimulate insulin secretion by the pancreas – inhibit gastric acid secretion (?) Hormonal Control Mechanism Candidate Hormones • Enteroglucagon • Pancreatic polypeptide family (PP, PYY, NPY) • Somatostatin • Motilin & Ghrelin • Many more ... Paracrine Control Mechanisms • Local control • Somatostatin, Histamine, GRP
