GI fluid & Electrolyte Transport Flashcards
what are the two ways water can be absorbed
paracellular
tight junctions
water absorption or movement to the blood side is predominantley going to occur in what pathways
paracellular
transcellular
in paracellula rpathway when sodium goes through
water will also go through
what channels for transcellular route
water channels
what has the leakiest tight junctions
duodenum
what has the tightest tight junctions
colon
most of water and electorlight absorption is where
at beginning of SI
solvent drag
bulk movement
where is solvent drag greatest
beginning of GI
draw out water movement from tubular fluid to cell to blood
pg 6
draw out epithelial cell of duodenum and the transporters involved
pg 7
why is sodium potassium ATPase not on lumen side
come in through secodndayr active transport and will get kicked out
duodenum is major site of absorption for
CHO, Protein & Lipid Absorption
where is the major site for sodium absorption
jejunum
what is function of colon
finish off water and electrolight absorption - it is not the major site!
if you have diaghrrea what happens to potassium in blood
low potassium in blood, more loss of potassium
hypokalemia in
diarrhea
what are the two ways you can get diarrhea
Decreased absorption of fluid and electrolytes
Increased secretion of fluid and electrolytes
why is there loss of bicarb in diarrhea?
so many things secrete bicarb, so you will loose a lot of it when you have diarrhea.
salt and solute transport is driving force for passive water flux by what two routes
paracellular or transcellular routes
sodium and chloride are absorbed in large quantities by what cells
intestinal epithelial cells
duodenum is major site for absorption of what
CHO, Protein & Lipid Absorption
jejunum is major site for absorption of what
Na+
draw out epithelial cell of SI (duodenum & jejunum)
