Secreted by the stomach wall, ghrelin is one of the signals that triggers feelings of hunger as mealtimes approach. In dieters who lose weight, ghrelin levels increase, which may be one reason it’s so hard to stay on a diet. Produced by adipose (fat) tissue, leptin suppresses appetite as its level increases. When body fat decreases, leptin levels fall, and appetite increases. Ghrelin Insulin Leptin The hormone PYY,secreted by the small intestine after meals, acts as an appetite suppressant that counters the appetite stimulant ghrelin. A rise in blood sugar level after a meal stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin (see Figure 41.3). In addition to its other functions, insulin suppresses appetite by acting on the brain.

The gastric glands have three types of cells that secrete different components of the gastric juice: mucus cells, chief cells, and parietal cells. HCl Pepsinogen and HCI are secreted into the lumen of the stomach. HCl converts pepsinogen to pepsin. Mucus cells secrete mucus, which lubricates and protects the cells lining the stomach. Pepsin then activates more pepsinogen, starting a chain reaction. Pepsin begins the chemical digestion of proteins. Chief cells secrete pepsino- gen, an inactive form of the digestive enzyme pepsin. Parietal cell Chief cell Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl).

Enterogastrone secreted by the duodenum inhibits peristalsis and acid secretion by the stomach, thereby slowing digestion when acid chyme rich in fats enters the duodenum. Liver Entero- gastrone Gall- bladder Gastrin from the stomach recirculates via the bloodstream back to the stomach, where it stimulates the production of gastric juices. Gastrin CCK Stomach Amino acids or fatty acids in the duodenum trigger the release of cholecystokinin (CCK), which stimulates the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the gallbladder. Pancreas Secretin Duodenum Secreted by the duodenum, secretin stimulates the pancreas to release sodium bicarbonate, which neutralizes acid chyme from the stomach. CCK Key Stimulation Inhibition Figure 41.22 Hormonal control of digestion This ensures enzymes are only present when needed.

Fat globule Large fat globules are emulsified by bile salts in the duodenum. Bile salts Digestion of fat by the pancreatic enzyme lipase yields free fatty acids and monoglycerides, which then form micelles. Fat droplets coated with bile salts Micelles made up of fatty acids, monoglycerides, and bile salts 1 2 3 4 Fatty acids and mono-glycerides leave micelles and enter epithelial cells by diffusion. Chylomicrons containing fattysubstances are transported out of the epithelial cells and into lacteals, where they are carried away from the intestine by lymph.

The cud, containing great numbers of microorganisms, finally passes to the abomasum for digestion by the cow‘s own enzymes (black arrows). Figure 41.28 Ruminant digestion Reticulum. Some boluses also enter the reticulum. In both the rumen and the reticulum, symbiotic prokaryotes and protists (mainly ciliates) go to work on the cellulose-rich meal. As by-products of their metabolism, the microorganisms secrete fatty acids. The cow periodically regurgitates and rechews the cud (red arrows), which further breaks down the fibers, making them more accessible to further microbial action. Omasum. The cow then reswallows the cud (blue arrows), which moves to the omasum, where water is removed.
