This document summarizes the structure and functions of the major cell types in the stomach. It describes that chief cells secrete pepsinogen and gastric lipase to break down proteins and fats. Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor. Hydrochloric acid kills microbes and helps digest proteins, while intrinsic factor aids vitamin B12 absorption. G cells secrete gastrin to stimulate secretion and motility. The muscularis mixes and churns food, and the pyloric sphincter regulates emptying into the small intestine.

Structure Activity Result
Chief cells Secrete pepsinogen Pepsin breaks down proteins into peptides Secrete gastric lipase Splits triglycerides into fatty acids and monoglycerides. Parietal cells Secrete intrinsic Needed for absorption of vitamin B12. factor Secrete hydrochloric Kills microbes in food. acid Denatures proteins. Converts pepsinogen into pepsin. Surface mucous Secrete mucus Forms protective barrier that prevents digestion cells and mucous of stomach wall neck cells Absorption Small quantity of water, ions, short-chain fatty acids, and some drugs enter bloodstream G cells Secrete gastrin Stimulates parietal cells to secrete HCl and chief cells to secrete pepsinogen. Contracts lower esophageal sphincter, increases motility of stomach, and relaxes pyloric sphincter. Muscularis Mixing waves Churns and physically breaks down food and mixes it with gastric juice, forming chime. Forces chyme through pyloric sphincter. Pyloric sphincter Opens to permit Regulates passage of chyme from stomach to passage of chyme duodenum. into duodenum Prevents backflow of chyme from duodenum to stomach.
