Descriptor English: Enterochromaffin-like Cells
Descriptor Spanish: Células Similares a las Enterocromafines
Descriptor células similares a las enterocromafines
Entry term(s) Células ECL
Scope note: Células neuroendocrinas de las glándulas de la MUCOSA GÁSTRICA. Producen HISTAMINA y péptidos como las CROMOGRANINAS. Las células similares a las enterocromafines (ECL) responden a la GASTRINA segregando histamina, que actúa como estimulador paracrino de la secreción de ÁCIDO CLORHÍDRICO por las CÉLULAS PARIETALES GÁSTRICAS.

Scope note: Neuroendocrine cells in the glands of the GASTRIC MUCOSA. They produce HISTAMINE and peptides such as CHROMOGRANINS. ECL cells respond to GASTRIN by releasing histamine which acts as a paracrine stimulator of the release of HYDROCHLORIC ACID from the GASTRIC PARIETAL CELLS.
