Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Parietal cells line the fundic glands, pumping acid through the H-K ATPase hands
Intrinsic factor binds to B12 in the gut, lose those cells and the pathway gets cut
Chief cells drop pepsinogen into the lumen dark
Mucous neck cells coat the surface — protection is their mark
G cells live in the antrum, gastrin is their call
D cells hush with somatostatin, braking one and all

[Chorus]
Желудок — живой оркестр, каждая клетка знает свой текст
Acid, ghrelin, gastrin, histamine in phase
Cephalic, gastric, intestinal — three-stage blaze
ECL drops histamine, acetylcholine turns the key
Желудок помнит всё — remember the physiology

[Verse 2]
Three signals hit the parietal cell and open up the pump
Acetylcholine, gastrin, histamine — a triple-pathway jump
PPIs block the ATPase, H2 blockers hit the receptor wall
Prostaglandins guard the mucus, NSAIDs make the barrier fall
Bicarbonate sits beneath the mucus like a second skin
Ischemia strips the defense away and bile leaks in
Slow waves pace the antrum at three cycles every minute
Trituration grinds the solids — pylorus controls what's in it

[Chorus]
Желудок — живой оркестр, каждая клетка знает свой текст
Acid, ghrelin, gastrin, histamine in phase
Cephalic, gastric, intestinal — three-stage blaze
ECL drops histamine, acetylcholine turns the key
Желудок помнит всё — remember the physiology

[Bridge]
Now map the resection to the deficit — this is where the exam lives
Total gastrectomy takes parietal cells, B12 deficiency gives
Iron falls within months, B12 takes years to deplete
Calcium follows in the duodenum — absorption incomplete
Sleeve removes the fundus, P-D1 ghrelin drops away
Hunger signals fade — that's the metabolic trade
Roux-en-Y bypasses the antrum, gastrin climbs the scale
Incretins surge from foregut exclusion — GLP-1 tells the tale
Antral loss alone spikes gastrin, marginal ulcer threat
Migrating motor complex clears between meals — don't forget

[Verse 3]
Receptive relaxation — vagal stretch to hold the meal
Accommodation softens fundal tone so pressure stays genteel
Liquids empty faster, exponential off the curve
Solids need the antral grind before the pylorus will serve
Ghrelin from the fundus — appetite's own telegraph
Sleeve it out, the hunger signal drops by nearly half
B12 needs intrinsic factor, iron needs acid to reduce
Ferric becomes ferrous — lose the acid, lose the juice

[Chorus]
Желудок — живой оркестр, каждая клетка знает свой текст
Acid, ghrelin, gastrin, histamine in phase
Cephalic, gastric, intestinal — three-stage blaze
ECL drops histamine, acetylcholine turns the key
Желудок помнит всё — remember the physiology

[Outro]
Каждая клетка — своя роль, каждый разрез — свой счёт
Every cell has a function, every cut has a cost
Map the location to the loss — that's the clinical art
Parietal, chief, G cell, D cell — знай наизусть
