• The left gastric artery supplies both anterior and
posterior surfaces of the stomach, running along the
lesser curvature
• The splenic artery follows a tortuous route across the
posterior abdominal wall along the upper border of the
pancreas. It gives rise to the left gastroepiploic (gastro-
omental) artery, which runs along the greater curvature
and anastomoses with the right gastroepiploic artery.
Additionally, short gastric arteries to the fundus arise
from the distal end of the splenic artery
• The common hepatic artery gives rise to the right gastric
artery and the gastroduodenal artery. The gastroduodenal
artery passes behind the first part of the duodenum and
gives rise to the right gastroepiploic and the superior
pancreaticoduodenal arteries.
Digestive Function
Acts mainly on proteins. Proteolytic enzymes of the gastric juice are pepsin and rennin. Gastric juice also contains
some other enzymes like gastric lipase, gelatinase, urase, and gastric amylase
Pepsin
● Secreted as inactive pepsinogen and converted into pepsin by hydrochloric acid.
● Optimum pH for activation of pepsinogen is below 6
● Pepsin converts proteins by break its covalent bonds into proteoses, peptones and polypeptides
● Also causes curdling and digestion of milk (casein)
● Pepsin exhibits optimum enzymatic activity at a pH of about 2.0
Gastric lipase
● Weak lipolytic enzyme when compared to pancreatic lipase
● Active only when the pH is between 4 and 5, inactive at a pH below 2.5
● Gastric lipase is a tributyrase and it hydrolyzes tributyrin (butter fat) into fatty acids and glycerols.

Protection Function
Mucus
is a mucoprotein, secreted by mucus neck cells of the gastric glands and surface mucus cells in fundus, body and
other parts of stomach. It protects the gastric walls by the following ways:
• Protects the stomach wall from irritation or mechanical injury, by virtue of its high viscosity.
• Prevents the digestive action of pepsin on the wall of the stomach, particularly gastric mucosa.
• Protects the gastric mucosa from hydrochloric acid of gastric juice because of its alkaline nature and its acid-
combining power.
Essentials of Medical Physiology (K. Sembulingam, Prema Sembulingam)
Hydrochloric acid
• Activates pepsinogen into pepsin
• Kills some of the bacteria entering the stomach along with food substances. This action is
called bacteriolytic action
• Provides acid medium, which is necessary for the action of hormones.
Pancreas
Digestive Function
Plays an important role in the digestion of protein and lipids. It also has mild digestive action on
carbohydrates
Digestion of Proteins
Major proteolytic enzymes of pancreatic juice are trypsin and chymotrypsin. Other proteolytic
enzymes are carboxypeptidases, nuclease, elastase and collagenase
Trypsin
● Single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 25,000
● Contains 229 amino acids
● Secreted as inactive trypsinogen which is converted into active trypsin by enterokinase
● Enterokinase/enteropeptidase is secreted by the brush-bordered cells of duodenal mucus
membrane
Essentials of Medical Physiology (K. Sembulingam, Prema Sembulingam)
Chymotripsin
● Polypeptide with a molecular weight of 25,700 and 246 amino acids
● It is secreted as inactive of chymotrypsinogen, which is activated into chymotrypsin by trypsin
● Actions of chymotrypsin:
i. Digestion of proteins: Chymotrypsin is also an endopeptidase and it converts proteins into polypeptides
ii. Digestion of milk: Chymotrypsin digests caseinogen faster than trypsin. Combination of both enzymes causes
rapid digestion of milk
iii. On blood clotting: No action.
Carboxypeptidases
● are carboxypeptidases A and B
● derived from the precursor procarboxypeptidase A and B
● procarboxypeptidases activated by trypsin into carboxypeptidase
● actions of carboxypeptidases:
o Carboxypeptidases are exopeptidases and break the terminal bond of protein molecules
Essentials of Medical Physiology (K. Sembulingam, Prema Sembulingam)
● Carboxypeptidase A splits the proteins into amino acids having aromatic or aliphatic side
chains
● Carboxypeptidase B converts the proteins into amino acids having basic side chains
Nucleases
Nucleases of pancreatic juice are ribonuclease and deoxyribonuclease, which are responsible for the
digestion of nucleic acids. These enzymes convert the ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic
acid (DNA) into mononucleotides.
Elastase
Elastase is secreted as inactive proelastase, which is activated into elastase by trypsin. Elastase
digests the elastic fibers.
Collagenase
Collagenase is secreted as inactive procollagenase, which is activated into collagenase by trypsin. It
digests collagen.
Essentials of Medical Physiology (K. Sembulingam, Prema Sembulingam)
Digestion of Lipids
Lipolytic enzymes present in pancreatic juice are pancreatic lipase, cholesterol ester hydrolase,
phospholipase A, phospholipase B, colipase and bile-salt -activated lipase.
Pancreatic lipase
● It digests triglycerides into monoglycerides and fatty acids
● Activity of pancreatic lipase is accelerated in the presence of bile
● Optimum pH required for activity of this enzyme is 7 to 9
● Digestion of fat by pancreatic lipase requires two more factors:
o Bile salts, which are responsible for the emulsification of fat, prior to their digestion
o Colipase, which is a coenzyme necessary for the pancreatic lipase to digest the dietary lipids.
Phospholipase A
● Activated by trypsin
● Digests phospholipids, namely lecithin and cephalin and converts them into lysophospholipids
● It converts lecithin into lysolecithin and cephalin into lysocephalin.
Phospholipase B
● Activated by trypsin
● Converts lysophospholipids (lysolecithin and lysocephalin) to phosphoryl choline and free
fatty acids
Colipase
● A small coenzyme
● Secreted as inactive procolipase and activated into colipase by trypsin
● Facilitates digestive action of pancreatic lipase on fats
Essentials of Medical Physiology (K. Sembulingam, Prema Sembulingam)
Bile-salt-activated lipase
• Is the lipolytic enzyme activated by bile salt
• Also called carboxyl ester lipase or cholesterol esterase
• This enzyme has a weak lipolytic action than pancreatic lipase
• It hydrolyses a variety of lipids such as phospholipids, cholesterol esters and triglycerides
Digestion of Carbohydrates
Pancreatic amylase is the amylolytic enzyme present in pancreatic juice. Like salivary amylase, the pancreatic
amylase also converts starch into dextrin and maltose.
Properties of Bile
Volume: 800 mL/day to1200mL/day
Reaction: Alkaline
pH: 8 to 8.6
Specific gravity: 1.010 to 1.011
Colour: Golden yellow or green
Storage of Bile
Most of the bile from liver enters the gallbladder, where it
is stored. It is released from gallbladder into the intestine
whenever it is required.

Dyspepsia organic
gastritis
● Definition : Gastritis (inflammation of the stomach) may be acute or chronic.
● Acute : This involves an acute inflammatory reaction at the superficial mucosa, with the
infiltration of neutrophils. Acute gastritis is almost always caused by drugs (especially
NSAIDs such as aspirin) or by alcohol (the most common cause) causing chemical
exfoliation of the surface epithelial cells and decreasing the secretion of protective mucus.
● Chronic : Chronic inflammatory changes in the mucosa with the infiltration of
lymphocytes and cause by atrophy and epithelial metaplasia. It can be classified according
to aetiology.
• Autoimmune
• Bacterial infection
• Reflux
