Chapter 24 Notes Chapter 24 Digestive System I. Anatomy of the Digestive System: a. The digestive tract is also called the alimentary tract or canal 1. gastrointestinal tract technically only refers to the stomach & intestines b. regions of the digestive tract include: 1. mouth or oral cavity with accessory organs, salivary gland & tonsils 2. pharynx (throat) with tubular mucus glands 3. esophagus with tubular mucus glands 4. stomach 5. small intestines – consists of: a. duodenum b. jejunum c. ileum d. liver e. gallbladder accessory organs f. pancreas 6. large intestines – consists of: a. cecum b. colon c. rectum d. anal canal 7. anus II. Functions of the Digestive System: 1. ingestion 2. mastication (chewing) 3. propulsion – movement from one end to the other of the digestive tract a. usually 24-36 hours b. deglutination – swallowing moves food & liquids (bolus) from the oral cavity into the esophagus c. Peristalsis – is responsible for moving material through most of the digestive tract. i. Muscular contractions occur in peristaltic waves. ii. Some parts of large intestine move material by mass movement, which all contractions that extend over much larger parts of the digestive tract. 4. Mixing – mix with digestive secretions to help break it into smaller parts. i. Segmental contractions – are mixing contractions that occur in the small intestine. 5. Secretion – secretions are added to lubricate, liquefy, and digest the food. i. Mucus – secreted the entire length of the digestive tract ii. Secretions also contain large amounts of water, which liquefies the food. iii. Enzymes – secreted by the oral cavity, stomach, intestines, & pancreas break large food molecules down. 6. digestion – is the breakdown of large organic molecules into: i. carbohydrates into monosaccharides ii. proteins into amino acids iii. triglycerides into fatty acids & glycerol a. consists of mechanical digestion (mastication & mixing of food), and chemical digestion (enzymes) 7. Absorption – is the movement of molecules out of the digestive tract & into the circulation or into the lymphatic system. a. molecules pass out of the digestion tract by: i. simple diffusion ii. facilitated diffusion iii. active transport iv. cotransport 8. elimination – is the process by which the waste products are removed from the body a. Feces – semi solid waste products that are eliminated from digestive tract by defecation. III. Histology of the Digestive Tract: a. Figure 24.4 b. Digestive tract consists of 4 major layers or tunics c. 3 major types of glands are associated with the intestinal tract: 1. unicellular mucus glands 2. multicellular glands (accessory glands outside the digestive tract 2 3. multicellular glands in the mucosa & submucosa A. Mucosa: a. Innermost tunic – consists of 3 layers i. Inner – mucous epithelium in the mouth, oropharynx, esophagus and anal canal. ii. Loose C.T. (lamina propria) iii. Pouter thin smooth muscle layer (muscularis mucosa) B. Submucosa: a. Thick C.T. layer containing nerves, blood vessels & small glands. b. The nerve plexus of nerve cells form the submucosal plexus (Meissner’s plexus) C. Muscularis: a. Consists of an inner layer of circular smooth muscle & an outer layer of longitudinal smooth muscle. 1. 2 exceptions: i. upper esophagus- mm striated ii. Stomach- 3 layers of smooth muscle. b. Myenteric plexus (Auerbach’s plexus) - is between the 2 muscle layers. c. Submucosal and myenteric plexus constitute the enteric plexus or intramural plexus. i. Important in the control of movement & secretion D. Serosa or adventitia: a. 4th layer of digestive tract is a C.T layer called serosa or adventitia. b. Serosa is called the visceral IV. Regulation of the digestive system: A. Nervous Regulation of the Digestive System: 1. local neuronal control of the digestive tract occurs with in the enteric nervous system (ENS) 2. 3 major types of enteric neurons: i. Enteric sensory neurons detect changes in the chemical compositions or detect mechanical changes. ii. Enteric motor neurons stimulate or inhibit smooth muscle contraction & glandular secretion. iii. Enteric interneurons connect enteric sensory & motor neurons. 3. ENS coordinates peristalsis & regulates local refluxes. Which control activities within specific, short regions. B. Chemical Regulation of the Digestive System: a. Digestive tract produces a number of hormones (gastrin, secretin) which are secreted by endocrine cells. b. Histamine are released locally with in the digestive tract. 3 I. Peritoneum: 1. The serous membrane that covers the organs is the visceral peritoneum, & the one that covers the interior surface of the body wall is the parietal peritoneum. a. Peritonitis – is the inflammation of the peritoneal membranes; may result from chemical irritation or from infection. i. Ascites- accumulation of excess serous fluid in the peritoneal cavity; may accompany peritonitis, starvation, alcoholism or liver cancer. 2. Mesenteries- hold many of the organs in place within the abdominal cavity; 2 layers of serous membranes. 3. Retroperitoneal – abdominal organs that lie against the abdominal wall, have no mesenteries, and include the duodenum, pancreas, ascending colon, descending colon, rectum, kidneys, adrenal glands & the urinary bladder. 4. Lesser omentum – is the mesentery connecting the lesser curvature of the stomach & the proximal end of the duodenum to the liver & diaphragm. (AKA membrane of the bowels). 5. Greater omentum – the mesentery extending as a fold from the greater curvature & then to the transverse colon. a. Omental bursa- a cavity or pocket between both layers of mesentery. b. Fatty apron – large amount of fat that accumulates in the greater omental. 6. Coronary ligament attaches the liver to the diaphragm. 7. Falciform ligament attaches the liver to the anterior abdominal wall. 8. Mesentery proper- refers to the mesentery associated with the small intestine. 9. Transverse mesocolon – mesenteries of parts of the colon which extend from the transverse colon to the posterior body wall. 10. Mesoappendix is also known as the vermiform appendix. 11. Figure 24.5 4 II. Oral Cavity: (mouth) a. Part of the digestive tract bounded by the lips anteriorly, the fauces (throat) posteriorly, the cheeks laterally, the palate superiorly, and a muscular floor inferiorly. b. It is divided into 2 regions: 1. vestibule 2. oral cavity proper A. Lips & Cheeks: a. The lips (labia) are muscular structures formed mostly by the orbicularis oris muscle b. Figure 24.6 5 c. One or more frenula (bridle) which are mucosal folds (upper & lower). d. The cheeks form the lateral walls of the oral cavity. 1. The substance of the cheek includes the buccinator muscle, which flattens the cheek against the teeth, & the buccal fat pad, which rounds out the profile on the side of the face. e. Lips & cheeks are important in the processes of mastication and speech. i. They help manipulate food with in the mouth & hold it while teeth crush it. ii. Also helps form words. B. Palate & Palatine Tonsils: a. Palate consists of 2 parts: 1. hard palate (anteriorly) 2. soft palate (posterior, non-boney) b. Uvula (grape) – is the projection from the posterior edge of the soft palate. c. Palatine tonsils are located in the lateral wall of the fauces. C. Tongue: a. Frenulum – the anterior part of the tongue is relatively free & is attached to the floor of the mouth by this thin fold of tissue. b. The muscles associated with the tongue are divided into 2 categories: 1. intrinsic muscles – with in the tongue itself 2. extrinsic muscles – are outside the tongue but attached to it. i. Protrude & retract the tongue ii. Move the tongue side-to-side iii. They change its shape c. terminal sulcus – a groove on the tongue i. lingual tonsil (lymphoid tissue) on the posterior 1/3 of the tongue: 1. moves food in the mouth 6 2. holds food in place during mastication 3. major role in the mechanism of swallowing 4. major sensory organ for taste 5. one of the primary organs of speech D.

  • Anatomy-Nerve Tracking
    INJECTABLES ANATOMY www.aestheticmed.co.uk Nerve tracking Dr Sotirios Foutsizoglou on the anatomy of the facial nerve he anatomy of the human face has received enormous attention during the last few years, as a plethora of anti- ageing procedures, both surgical and non-surgical, are being performed with increasing frequency. The success of each of those procedures is greatly dependent on Tthe sound knowledge of the underlying facial anatomy and the understanding of the age-related changes occurring in the facial skeleton, ligaments, muscles, facial fat compartments, and skin. The facial nerve is the most important motor nerve of the face as it is the sole motor supply to all the muscles of facial expression and other muscles derived from the mesenchyme in the embryonic second pharyngeal arch.1 The danger zone for facial nerve injury has been well described. Confidence when approaching the nerve and its branches comes from an understanding of its three dimensional course relative to the layered facial soft tissue and being aware of surface anatomy landmarks and measurements as will be discussed in this article. Aesthetic medicine is not static, it is ever evolving and new exciting knowledge emerges every day unmasking the relationship of the ageing process and the macroscopic and microscopic (intrinsic) age-related changes. Sound anatomical knowledge, taking into consideration the natural balance between the different facial structures and facial layers, is fundamental to understanding these changes which will subsequently help us develop more effective, natural, long-standing and most importantly, safer rejuvenating treatments and procedures. The soft tissue of the face is arranged in five layers: 1) Skin; 2) Subcutaneous fat layer; 3) Superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS); 4) Areolar tissue or loose connective tissue (most clearly seen in the scalp and forehead); 5) Deep fascia formed by the periosteum of facial bones and the fascial covering of the muscles of mastication (lateral face).

  • Glands: a Correlation in Postmortem Subjects
    J. clin. Path., 1970, 23, 690-694 Lymphocytic sialadenitis in the major and minor glands: a correlation in postmortem subjects D. M. CHISHOLM, J. P. WATERHOUSE, AND D. K. MASON From the Department of Oral Medicine and Pathology, University of Glasgow Dental Hospital and School, Glasgow, Scotland, and the Department of Oral Pathology, University ofIllinois, Chicago, USA SYNOPSIS In the present investigation, the prevalence offocal lymphocytic adenitis in the submandibular salivary gland was observed in a series of 116 postmortem subjects after suitable exclusions had been made. Focal lymphocytic adenitis could not be demonstrated in the labial salivary glands. The degree of lymphocytic infiltration in the labial salivary glands is positively correlated with the level of focal lymphocytic adenitis in the submandibular glands in the same subject. Lymphocytic foci and lymphocytic infiltrations found under these circumstances are probably related. This finding provides conceptual support for the examina- tion, by biopsy, of the labial glands in patients suspected of Sjogren's syndrome. The aim of the present study was to investigate muscle layer of the lower lip were excised at the prevalence and degree of lymphocytic sial- necropsy.

  • Salivary Glands
    GASTROINTESTINAL SYSTEM [Anatomy and functions of salivary gland] 1 INTRODUCTION Digestive system is made up of gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) or alimentary canal and accessory organs, which help in the process of digestion and absorption. GI tract is a tubular structure extending from the mouth up to anus, with a length of about 30 feet. GI tract is formed by two types of organs: • Primary digestive organs. • Accessory digestive organs 2 Primary Digestive Organs: Primary digestive organs are the organs where actual digestion takes place. Primary digestive organs are: Mouth Pharynx Esophagus Stomach 3 Anatomy and functions of mouth: FUNCTIONAL ANATOMY OF MOUTH: Mouth is otherwise known as oral cavity or buccal cavity. It is formed by cheeks, lips and palate. It encloses the teeth, tongue and salivary glands. Mouth opens anteriorly to the exterior through lips and posteriorly through fauces into the pharynx. Digestive juice present in the mouth is saliva, which is secreted by the salivary glands. 4 ANATOMY OF MOUTH 5 FUNCTIONS OF MOUTH: Primary function of mouth is eating and it has few other important functions also. Functions of mouth include: Ingestion of food materials. Chewing the food and mixing it with saliva. Appreciation of taste of the food. Transfer of food (bolus) to the esophagus by swallowing . Role in speech . Social functions such as smiling and other expressions. 6 SALIVARY GLANDS: The saliva is secreted by three pairs of major (larger) salivary glands and some minor (small) salivary glands. Major glands are: 1. Parotid glands 2. Submaxillary or submandibular glands 3. Sublingual glands. 7 Parotid Glands: Parotid glands are the largest of all salivary glands, situated at the side of the face just below and in front of the ear.

  • Anatomy of the Ageing Lip
    AESTHETIC FOCUS Anatomy of the ageing lip With lip augmentation an ever popular option for those seeking more youthful looks it is vital that practitioners have a proper understanding of anatomy. In the first of our two-part special focus on lipsDr Foutsizoglou provides a comprehensive guide to function and anatomy. BY SOTIRIOS FOUTSIZOGLOU he lips are pliable, mobile, muscular folds that encircle the opening of the oral cavity. They contain the orbicularis oris and superior and inferior labial vessels and nerves. The lips are covered externally by skin and internally by mucous membrane. A sagittal cut through the lip can reveal the layers of soft tissue that form this relatively simple anatomical structure. That is, from Tsuperficial to deep: skin, superficial fat compartment, orbicularis oris muscle, deep fat compartment and mucosa. The lips are used for grasping food, sucking liquids, clearing food from the oral vestibule, forming speech, osculation, and controlling the size of the oral aperture. Functions of the lips as part of the tactile senses. Lips are very sensitive to touch, warmth and cold. Food intake Lips serve to close the mouth airtight shut, Erogenous zone to hold food and drink inside. Because of their high number of nerve endings, the lips are an erogenous zone. Mastication The lips therefore play a crucial role in Lips help to hold food between upper and osculation and other acts of intimacy. lower teeth during chewing.

    Review article Annals and Essences of Dentistry doi:10.5368/aedj.2011.3.4.4.3 ROLE OF SALIVA IN PERIODONTAL HEALTH & DISEASE– A REVIEW 1 1 Sanjay Vasudevan Professor 1 Department of Periodontia,SRM Dental College ,Kattankulathur ,chennai. ABSTRACT: Saliva is essential for maintaining the protection and normal functioning of the masticatory system. A 'dry mouth' or xerostomia resulting from a perceived reduction in salivary flow may lead to numerous signs and symptoms of oral dysfunction. The quality of life for affected people may be poor. Many of these persons are taking multiple medications that cause a reduced salivary flow, and the number of people taking such drugs can be expected to increase. The ingestion of softer cariogenic foods, and acidic foods and beverages in attempts to stimulate an increased saliva flow, is disastrous for the teeth. KEYWORDS: Acquired Dental Pellicle, Plaque Biofilm, Oropharyngeal, Sjogren's Syndrome INTRODUCTION The production of adequate amounts of unstimulated clears the mouth of food detritus, microorganisms and and stimulated normal salivary secretions is critical for the harmful dietary acids and gastric reflux acid4. The oral prevention of tooth erosion, dental caries and other clearance rate is much faster from the lingual of the adverse oral, pharyngeal and esophageal conditions. mandibular incisors than from the facial of the maxillary Unfortunately, however, the importance of saliva for incisors and mandibular molars5, which probably accounts maintaining oral health does not appear to be fully for the less frequent involvement of the mandibular appreciated by dental practitioners.1" Hyposalivation, from anterior teeth in dental caries and erosion.

  • (OC) and Its Accessory Organs Namely; the Tongue, Teeth, Salivary Glands
    ORAL CAVITY The oral cavity (O.C) and its accessory organs namely; the tongue, teeth, salivary glands are concerned with the prehension, mastication and in salivation of food i.e. they are involved in the conversion of food for palatability. The O.C. extends from the lips into the entrance of the pharynx. The osseous support of the mouth is provided by premaxilla, palatine, alveoli processes of the maxilla, the horizontal part of the palatine bone dorsally, the mandibular rami laterally of the body of the mandible ventrally. The soft structures complying with the wall of the mouth are the cheeks laterally, the lips rostrally and the mylohyoid ventrally. Its dorsal limit or roof is the hard palate. Caudally, the oral cavity communicates with the oropharynx by a narrow opening called the Isthmus faucium formed by roof of the tongue and the soft palate, it is usually closed. When the jaws are closed, the mouth is divided by the teeth and the alveolar processes into vestibuble and oral cavity proper. These two cavities communicates via the interdental spaces. The part of the vestibule between the incisors and the lips is the labial vestibule, while that between the check teeth and the check is the buccal Vestibule. Rostrally, two narrow incisive ducts connect the oral cavity and the nasal cavity. The duct opens on the incisive papillae. The mucus membrane of the O.C. is usually pink but may be pigmented (black) in some places. It is well supplied with blood vessels and in its sub mucosa it contains serous or mucous gland know as the labial, buccal and lingual glands (depending on their location).
