show Cells of the gastric glands that secrete hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor.  
🗑
hepatic portal vein   show
🗑
show A tubular epithelial pocket that is lined by secretory cells and opens into the lumen of the digestive tract; also called intestinal gland.  
🗑
show The S-shaped 18 cm long portion of the colon between the descending colon and the rectum.  
🗑
show The proximal 25cm of the small intestine that contains short villi and submucosal glands.
