45
Q

CCK does what to the gallbladder and sphincter of oddi

A

fat and protein in the SI triggers the release of CCK

CCK causes contraction of the gallbladder and relaxation of the sphincter of oddi → bile acid is released into the SI

46
Q

bile secretion in ruminants and pig

A

sphincter of Oddi poorly defined leads to continuous secretion of bile

47
Q

no- leads to continuous secretion of bile acid

48
Q

94% is reabsorbed from the small intestine back through through the liver into the gallbladder

6% is lost in feces and needs to be made from cholesterol

49

54
Q

how does liver disfunction effect vitamin K?

A

vitamin K can not be stored in the body, must be provided by the diet

issues with liver will cause vit K deficiency (excessive bleeding)

55
Q

60
Q

luminal chemical digestion

large polymers(starch and proteins) are broken down into smaller polymers (polysaccharides and peptides)

61
Q

membranous chemical digestion

63
Q

enzymes for the membranous phase of chemical digestion are from ___

A

64
Q

carbohydrate digestion

A

luminal digestion (starch) enzymes form salivary, gastric and pancreatic glands

found on brush border oligosaccharidases

only monomers are absorbed

65
Q

luminal phase of carbohydrate digestion

66
Q

what enzyme is used in the luminal stage of carbohydrate digestion?

amylase (can break 1-4 bond of starch→ disaccharides (maltose) , trisaccharides (maltotriose) and oligosaccharides)

67
Q

membranous phase of carbohydrate digestion

A

lactose and sucrose skip luminal phase (they are both dimers)

starch has to go through luminal phase, breakdown by amylase into smaller pieces

enters membranous phase- each have their own enzyme (ex. lactose and lactase) → glucose and galactose

starch→ glucose

sucrose→ glucose and fructose

these monomers can then be absorbed

68

glucose

70
Q

then exported into the blood by glucose transporter 2

72
Q

how is fructose absorbed

A

glucose transporter 5

then exported into the blood by glucose transporter 2

73
Q

74
Q

A

gastric glands and pancreas

75
Q

endopeptidase-

enzyme for luminal phase of protein digestion

77
Q

activation of pancreatic zymogens

A
78
Q

membranous phase digestion of peptides

A

tripeptide, dipeptide and amino acids can be taken into the enterocyte or they can be broken down into amino acid using brush border peptidases

tripeptide and dipeptide are taken up by the H+ dependent peptide transporter 1

amino acid is taken up by the Na+ co-transporter

tripeptide and dipeptide have to be broken down more inside the enterocyte by peptidases into amino acids

79
Q

___ are taken up into the enterocyte by the H+ dependent peptide transporter 1

A

tripeptide and dipeptide

80
Q

amino acids are transported by ___ in the enterocyte

A

Na+ co-transporter

81
Q

protein digestion

A

luminal: luminal digestion into smaller peptides by endopeptidase or exopeptidase from the gastric glands or the pancreas

membrane: broken down by brushborder peptidase into 3,2,or amino acids. (3 and 2 can be transported into the enterocyte and further broken down into amino acids by intracellular peptidases) (amino acids can be transported by Na+ co transporter)

82
Q

carbohydrate digestion

A

luminal: starch into smaller molecules by amylase

membranous: lactose(lactase)→ glucose + galactose. starch (special enzyme) → glucose. sucrose (sucrase)→ glucose and fructose

absorption: glucose and galactose use Na+ glucose transporter then a GLUT2 transporter to go from enterocyte into the blood

fructose use GLUT5 transporter to get into enterocyte, then a GLUT2 transporter to go from enterocyte into the blood

phospholipase

87
Q

triglyceride (pancreatic lipase)→

A

1 (2-monoglyceride) amphiphilic- hydrophobic and hydrophilic

and

2 (free fatty acids) amphiphilic- hydrophobic and hydrophilic

88

A

secreted

inhibited

90
Q

co-lipase is secreted in the ___ form and is __ by bile acids

(lipase and colipase in a 1:1 ratio)

91
Q

how does fat get absorbed into enterocyte

A

broken down into fatty acids and glyceride by lipase and co-lipase to form micelle

glyceride, fatty acid, phospholipid and cholesterol are taken up into the enterocyte

bile acids are also absorbed in the ileum

inside the enterocyte: the glyceride and fatty acid reform triglyceride. triglyceride, phospholipid, cholesterol and protein from the ER form together to make the chylomicron

chylomicron is exported out of enterocyte into the ECM

92
Q

which is bigger micelle or chylomicron

A

chylomicron (100s of nanometers)

micelle (nanoparticle)

93
Q

lipids are moved out of the enterocyte by forming ___

A

chylomicron

94
Q

where do chylomicrons go from the intestine

A

ECM → lymphatics → systemic circulation

(does not get filtered by the liver by the hepatic portal system like carbs and proteins)

95
Q

lipemia

A

chylomicronemia

too much fat, causes lymphatics to turn milky yellow

fats are absorbed into enterocyte and then form chylomicrons which are exported into the EMC and taken up into the lymphatic system and go directly into the systemic circulation (skip the cleaning by the liver by the hepatic portal vein)

96
Q

digestion of fats

A

triglycerides are broken down by lipase and co lipase. they combine with bile acids and form micelle

glyceride, free fatty acids, phospholipid and cholesterol are taken up into the enterocytes

glyceride and fatty acid reform triglyceride. Triglyceride, phospholipid, cholesterol and protein from the ER form the chylomicron

chylomicron gets transported out of the enterocyte and into the ECM, gets picked up by the lymphatic system and dumped into the systemic circulation without being filtered by the hepatic portal vein like carbs or proteins

97

101
Q

how are antibodies acquired for livestock

A

colostrum- proteins not digested, absorbed intact

102
Q

how can a neonate absorb full proteins?

A

delay in acid secretion from the stomach, delay in pancreatic function
