Gastric glands 3 major secretory cells:
Chief cells: secrete enzymes
Parietal cells: secrete HCl & intrinsic factor (binds to Vitamin B12 to protect it)
Endocrine cells: secrete ghrelin (stimulates hypothalamus to increase appetite) & gastrin (regulates gastric function)
![Page 30: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 25 Anatomy of the Digestive System](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081511/56649c9c5503460f9495b829/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Wall of Small Intestine Has circular folds
(plicae) with many tiny projections (villi)
Each villus contains vessels & lacteal
Epithelial cells on surface of villi have microvilli which form a brush border which increases surface area

Goblet cells Large numbers of
mucus secreting goblet cells on villi & in crypts
Crypts serve as area of rapid mitotic division & at base of crypts secretory cells produce an enzyme that is thought to inhibit bacterial growth
![Page 35: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 25 Anatomy of the Digestive System](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081511/56649c9c5503460f9495b829/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
