Vitamin B12 absorption Main functions of small intestine: 1) chemical digestion 2) absorption of nutrients (90%) from chyme 3 1 Blood Supply and Drainage of Small Intestine 4 Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001 Wall of Small Intestine Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010 Plicae circulares – permanent circular folds of mucosa that further increase surface area for absorption –do not flatten out with distention like rugae of stomach. Especially prominent in lower duodenum and upper jejunum Submucosa of duodenum contains mucus-secreting glands (Brunner’s glands) that protect the small intestine 5 Intestinal Villi & Glands Figure from: Saladin, Anatomy & Physiology, McGraw Hill, 2007 Enterocyte = Intestinal Cell Intestinal glands secrete an abundant watery fluid that helps absorb products of digestion. They also contain enteroendocrine cells (enterokinase, gastrin, secretin, CCK) 6 2 Intestinal Epithelium Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010 Microvilli further increase the surface area available for absorption in the small intestine F‘bhbd’Form a ‘brush border’ on the intestine Digestive enzymes are embedded in the membrane of microvilli Main function of plicae, villi, and microvilli is to increase the 2 2 surface area for absorption (from about 3.6 ft to about 2200 ft !) 7 Secretions of Small Intestine • peptidase – breaks down peptides into amino acids • sucrase, maltase, lactase – break down disaccharides into monosaccharides Brush border • intestinal lipase – breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol • enterokinase – converts trypsinogen to trypsin • gastrin/somatostatin –hormonesthat stimulate/inhibit acid secretion by stomach • cholecystokinin (CCK) – hormone that inhibits gastric glands, stimulates pancreas to release enzymes in pancreatic juice, stimulates gallbladder to release bile, and relaxes hepatopancreatic sphincter (of Oddi) • secretin – stimulates pancreas to release bicarbonate ions in pancreatic juice; stimulates gall bladder to release bicarbonate-rich bile 8 See Table 23.32 in Marieb for a great summary of digestive enzymes Movements of the Small Intestine Movements in local segments can occur without stimulation by parasympathetic NS. However, nervous stimulation accelerates segmentation and peristalsis. • peristalsis – pushing movements • segmentation – ringlike contractions that aid in mixing and slow ing per itliistalsis • overdistended or irritated wall triggers “peristaltic rush” resulting in diarrhea “Long distance” movements are triggered by stomach filling: - gastroenteric reflex (↑ motility and secretion along length of small intestine) - gastroileal reflex (relaxation of ileocecal sphincter) 9 3 Absorption in the Small Intestine • monosaccharides and • electrolytes and water amino acids • through diffusion, • through facilitated osmosis, and active diffusion and active transport transport • absorbed into blood • absorbed into blood • vitamins • fat-soluble dissolve in dietary fats (vit A,D,E,K) •Water-soluble through diffusion, except B12 (active transport) • Vitamin K (large intestine) – with other lipids • absorbed into blood 10 Absorption of Fats in the Small Intestine Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010 • fatty acids and ggylycerol • several steps • absorbed into lymph into blood Chylomicrons contain TG, cholesterol, and phospholipids 11 Large Intestine Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001 12 * 4 Histology of the Large Intestine Figures from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010 Walls of large intestine are much thinner than the small intestine, however, the lumen is larger Note lack of villi and presence of numerous goblet cells (mucus) No enzymes produced; any digestion is from previously introduced enzymes or bacteria 13 Functions of Large Intestine • little or no digestive function • absorbs water, bile salts, and electrolytes • secretes mucus (lubrication, binding, protection, pH) • conversion of bilirubin (uro- and stercobilinogen) • houses intestinal flora (~800 species of bacteria) and absorbs vitamins liberated by bacterial action (K, B5, and Biotin); produces intestinal gas (flatus) • forms and stores feces • carries out defecation 14 The Rectum, Anal Canal, and Anus Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010 Temporary storage of fecal material in Rectal rectum triggers the valves urge to defecate Internal anal sphincter is usually contracted but relaxes in response to distension.

Abstract Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most studied and discussed problems in the field of gastroenterology, yet it often remains perplexing to both clinicians and patients. Some of the apprehension comes from a void of objective data that defines a diagnosis in most disorders. This level of comfort is not appreciated in the evaluation of IBS, where the art of medicine and subjective impressions are the cornerstones of proper assessment. Though this paper focuses on management, a review of pathophysiology and specific guidelines establishing a diagnosis of IBS will be addressed.

  • Gastrointestinal Motility
    Gastrointestinal Motility H. J. Ehrlein and M.Schemann 1. Motility of the stomach Anatomic regions of the stomach are the fundus, corpus (body), antrum and pylorus. The functional regions of the stomach do not correspond to the anatomic regions. Functionally, the stomach can be divided into the gastric reservoir and the gastric pump (Fig. 1). The gastric reservoir consists of the fundus and corpus. The gastric pump is represented by the area at which peristaltic waves occur: it includes the distal part of the corpus and the antrum. Due to different properties of the smooth muscle cells the gastric reservoir is characterised by tonic activity and the gastric pump by phasic activity. AB Gastric reservoir Fundus tonic contractions Pylorus Corpus Antrum Gastric pump phasic contractions Figure 1 . The stomach can be divided into three anatomic (A) and two functional regions (B) 1.1 Function of the gastric reservoir At the beginning of the 20 th century it was already observed that with increasing volume of the stomach the internal pressure of the stomach increases only slightly. In dogs, for instance, the increase in pressure is only 1.2 cm of water/100 ml volume. The small increase in gastric pressure indicates that the stomach does not behave like an elastic balloon but that it relaxes as it fills. Three kinds of gastric relaxation can be differentiated: a receptive, an adaptive and a feedback-relaxation of the gastric reservoir. The receptive relaxation consists of a brief relaxation during chewing and swallowing. The stimulation of mechano-receptors in the mouth and pharynx induces vago-vagal reflexes which cause a relaxation of the gastric reservoir (Fig.

  • Effect of Acid Infusion Into Various Levels of the Intestine on Gastric and Pancreatic Secretion in the Cat
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.10.9.749 on 1 September 1969. Downloaded from Gut, 1969, 10, 749-753 Effect of acid infusion into various levels of the intestine on gastric and pancreatic secretion in the cat S. J. KONTUREK, J. DUBIEL, AND B. GABRY9 From the Department ofMedicine, Medical School, Krakow, Poland SUMMARY Intraduodenal infusion of increasing amounts of hydrochloric acid solution results in a stepwise increase in the volume of pancreatic secretion and output of bicarbonate, reaching about 90 % of amounts attained with exogenous secretin infused intravenously in increasing doses. Acid infusion into the different regions of the intestine stimulates pancreatic secretion only from the duodenum and upper jejunum, suggesting that the area ofendogenous release of secretin by acid is confined to the upper part ofthe small bowel in the cat. Gastric acid secretion induced by pentagastrin, but not by histamine, is inhibited by acid perfusion of the duodenum. The acidification of other parts of the small intestine does not result in any change in gastric acid secretion induced either by pentagastrin or by histamine. Previous studies have shown that acidification of the ligament of Treitz, and the third in the ileum about 25 cm duodenum in the cat inhibits gastric acid secretion proximal to the caecum. and stimulates pancreatic secretion, due to the endogenous release of secretin (Konturek, Dubiel, SECRETORY PROCEDURE The secretory tests were started and and about two weeks after the cats hadrecoveredfrom surgery. Gabryg, 1969; Konturek, Gabrys, Dubiel, http://gut.bmj.com/ 1969). No study, however, has compared the relative effects on gastric and pancreatic secretion of acid infusions into various regions of the small intestine.
