what type of intestinal cells break down fat? CCK?
CCK mediates digestion in the small intestine by inhibiting gastric emptying and decreasing gastric acid secretion. It stimulates the acinar cells of the pancreas to release digestive enzymes and stimulates the secretion of a juice rich in pancreatic digestive enzymes, hence the old name pancreozymin.CK identified at bottom right. Cholecystokinin (CCK or CCK-PZ; from Greek chole, bile; cysto, sac; kinin, move; hence, move the bile-sac (gallbladder)) is a peptide hormone of the gastrointestinal system responsible for stimulating the digestion of fat and protein.
