Hormones or paracrines that inhibit gastric secretion include?

Hormones that inhibit gastric secretion include secretin. It is a type of hormone that is released into the bloodstream by the duodenum.


What hormones are produced in the duodenal wall?

They secrete an alkaline substance to neutralize the acidity of the chyme coming from the stomach. They are called Brunner's glands.


What hormones control digestion?

The hormones that control digestion are as follows: 1.Gastrin - The stretching of the stomach wall and the presence of food in the stomach stimulates the production of gastrin by the gastric mucosa. The target organs of gastrin are the gastric glands which are stimulated to produce gastric juice and also secretion of HCl. 2.Cholecystokinin (CCK) - The duodenal mucosa secretes CCK in response to the presence of partially digested fats and proteins present in the chyme. The functions of CCK is to inhibit emptying of stomach, synthesis of digestive enzymes by pancreas and contraction of gall bladder. Thus the target organs are stomach, pancreas and gall bladder. 3.Secretin - Secretin is also secreted by the duodenal mucosa, in response to the presence of acidified chyme in the duodenum. The functions of secretin are to inhibit the production of gastric juice and stimulate the production of hydrogencarbonate ions in the pancreatic and bile juice. Thus the target organs of secretin are stomach, pancreas and liver respectively


Where do pancreatic enzymes enter?

The pancreas secretes the following digestive enzymes: - trypsin - chymotrypsin - carboxypolypeptidase - ribonuclease - deoxyribonuclease - elastase - lipase - cholesterol esterase - alpha amylase - phospholipase A2 - colipase The small intestine secretes the following digestive enzymes: - secretin - gastrin - sucrase - alpha dextrinase - maltase - lactase - cholecystokinin-pancreozymin - gastric inhibitory polypeptide - enteroglucagon and glucagon - vasoactive intestinal polypeptide - somatostatin


What gland controls hormones?

The pituitary gland controls the release of hormones by many glands 1.) Primary glands- glands who's main purpose is to create and secrete hormones 2.) Secondary glands-Glands who's main purpose is something else, but they also (like a part-time job vs. a full time job) create and secrete hormones there are 7 Primary endocrine glands- 1.)Parathyroid glad- secretes parathyroid hormone which increases calcium concentration in plasma 2.)Pineal Gland- secretes melatonin (pertaining to circadian rhythms sleep/wake cycle) 3.) Pancreas which secretes- Insulin, somatostoin, glucagon 4.) Adrenal glands- a.) cortex- secretes androgens, mineralcorticoids,glucocorticoids b.)Medulla- chrommafin cells secrete epinephrine and norepinephrine 5.)Gonads- estrodiols, adrostenodione, progesterone, testosterone 6.)Thymus- thymosin 7.) Thyroid- T3, T4, Calcitonin (antagonist to parathyroid, decreases calcium concentration in plasma) Secondary: 1.)Heart- Atrialneuropeptides 2.) Liver- Insulin-like growth factors 3.)Kidneys- Erythropoietin, renin 4.)GI track-CCK, gastrin, secretin,GIP 5.)Skin-Vitamin D
