List of terms related to S cell

S cells are cells which release secretin, found in the jejunum and duodenum. They are stimulated by a drop in pH to 4 or below in the small intestine's lumen. The released secretin will increase the secretion of HCO₃^- into the lumen, via the pancreas.

For more information on the function of S cells, see article secretin.
