What is the function of the 4 gastric/intestinal hormones discussed in class? -Gastrin, CCK, Secretin, and GIP-
Autor: Krystal PickardRespuesta:
Gastrin - gastrin stimulates the stomach to release gastric acid to break down proteins swallowed as food and absorb certain vitamins. CCK- slows down the emptying of food, stimulates the production of bile in the liver as well as its release from the gall bladder into the duodenum. Secretin - involves production of pancreatic fluid thats low in enzyme content and high in bicarbonate GIP- decreases peristalsis and slows passage of chyme into the duodenum
