GI tract development
•Folding forms tube – closed at cranial and caudal ends (also forms respiratory tube)
•3 regions – Fore, Mid and Hind gut
•Midgut open but progressively reduced
•Digestive tube constricts to form oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestine
•Lining endodermal cells surrounded by mesodermal mesenchyme providing muscles

Endoderm-mesoderm interactions direct development
•Endodermal tube induces regional specificity of splanchnic mesoderm via Sonic Hedgehog (Shh)
•Mesodermal receptor is “Patched” protein
•Induces nested expression of “Hox” genes in mesoderm, allowing regional specification – oesophagus to anus

The Oesophagus
• MOTOR function – TWO types of peristalsis
• Primary – continuation of pharyrngeal contraction (5-8 sec)
• Secondary – results from distension – continues till relieved
– TWO types of muscle • Striated in pharynx and upper third
• Smooth in lower 2/3rds. Vagal control for both but myenteric plexus can still operate independently
• ACHALASIA – TWO requirements
• Aperistalsis AND
• Impaired LOS relaxation with swallow.

Achalasia
• Inhibitory myenteric ganglion degeneration
• Likely due to autoimmune process with latent infection of HSV-1 in genetically susceptible individuals
• Partial preservation of post-ganglionic cholinergic pathway basis for Botox effect
Anthony G Catto-Smith
![Page 29: GI Physiology, the Oesophagus and Stomach](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012018/615ca7143e0d7b0bf65a76ad/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Achalasia - progression
• Earliest? – Diffuse oesophageal spasm
• Early stage – High amplitude contractions – often repetitive
– Lacks orderly relaxation/contraction of LOS
– Chest pain associated
– “Vigorous achalasia”
– Preservation of myenteric ganglia
– Responds well to treatment
• Classic achalasia – Negligible oesophageal contraction (big and baggy)

Achalasia – associations
• Triple A syndrome – ACTH insensitivity low BSL from age 5 yr alacrima from
birth
– Can be delayed dx till adults
– 12q13
• Rozycki syndrome – AR deafness, short stature, vitiligo, muscle wasting
• Others – Chagas, sarcoid, Hirschsprung, Downs, pyloric stenosis etc

GOR: consequences
• “Reflux” is only a disease if it causes harm
• Most reflux and reflux “disease” usually resolves in infants by 1-2 years
• About half of older children and adults with GORD experience a chronic relapsing course

Therapeutic approach to GOR
• Phase 1 Parental reassurance. Observation. Lifestyle changes. Exclude overfeeding.
• Phase 2 Dietary treatment (decrease regurgitation) Thickened formula, thickening agents, extensive hydrolysates or amino acid based formula in CMPI Positional treatment
• Phase 3 For immediate symptom relief: alginates (some efficacy in moderate GERD); antacids only in older children
• Phase 4 Proton pump inhibitors (drug of choice in severe GERD; more safety data needed) H 2 receptor antagonists less effective than PPIs
• Phase 5 Prokinetics (but not one product available on the market in 2009 has been shown to be effective) Would treat pathophysiologic mechanism of GERD
• Phase 6 Laparoscopic surgery

3 gastric functions
• Motor • Secretory
• Endocrine
• Motor – reservoir
• compliance of wall • digestion (saliva/lingual)
– mixing of food, fluid and gastric enzymes
– kneading of food particles to <1mm diameter
– metered emptying in response to duodenal feedback

3 gastric functions
• Motor
• Secretory • Endocrine
• Secretory – Hydrogen ion
• converts pepsinogen to pepsin
• kills microbes
• denatures protein
– Pepsinogens • partly digest proteins
– Mucus • lubricates/protects mucosa
– Bicarbonate • protects mucosa
– Intrinsic factor • nec for B12 absorption
– Water (2.5 L/d) • solvation and dilution

• Secondary or acquired – rotavirus infection, giardiasis – small bowel bacterial overgrowth – short gut syndrome, cow milk and soy protein hypersensitivity – AIDS
• Physiologic – fructose, sorbitol – fibre, vegetable oligosaccharides (beans)

Glucose-galactose malabsorption
• SLC5A1 (solute carrier) encodes SGLT1
• Over 40 mutations in SLC5A1
• Defects give rise to glucose-galactose malabsorption
– Severe osmotic diarrhoea
– Stools acidic and contain sugar
– Normal fructose absorption and bowel structure
– Also have glycosuria (same defect in kidney)
– Diagnosis by reduced dose glucose breath test

Mechanisms for antibiotic diarrhoea
– reduced Na-SCFA water salvage
– some antibiotics directly stimulate secretion
– induce overgrowth of opportunistic pathogens
Bacterial overgrowth in upper intestine
– Normal small intestine 103 to 106
– Predisposed by: • achlorhydria, blind loop,
dysmotility, stricture, inflammation, ileocaecal valve, PEM
– Causes • steatorrhoea
(deconjugated bile salts) • Normal histology, but
decreased disaccharidases • Hypoproteinaemia, • B12 def, d-lactic acidosis
– Diagnosis • lactulose breath test

H pylori • Most common chronic bacterial infection
– at least 50% of world population infected
• Prevalence is higher in developing countries and in older age groups
• Inverse relationship to socioeconomic status – crowded living conditions
– suboptimal sanitation
• Person to person transmission – faeco-oral
– oro-oral

H. pylori
• Epidemiology: children
– 10% adolescents in developed world
– 80% adolescents in developing countries
– neonatal infection very rare
– colonization may be reversible

H. pylori • Clinical
– asymptomatic in absence of ulceration
– commonest paed cause of chronic gastritis
– gastritis always present, but microscopic
– assoc with gastritis, GU and DU
– role in Rec Abdo Pain uncertain - prob not
– cancer / atrophic gastritis (declining)

H. pylori
• diagnosis
– endoscopy
• involves antrum, occ body
• antral nodularity (specific, not in adults)
• gram-neg spiral rods in surface mucus layer
– 13C-urea breath test (children)
– serology IgG, no use for 6 mo after therapy
• therapy
– 2-3 drugs for 2 or more weeks
