Lecture 24: Mucosal Absorption-1 Flashcards
Are end products of carbohydrate and protein digestion hydrophilic or hydrophobic
Hydrophilic
What is active transport
Transport of molecules that requires ATP, against concentration gradient
What is the most important active transporter
Na/K pump
Numerous secondary active transporters depend on __gradient
Sodium
Secondary active co-transporters ligands are on the ___side
Same
Secondary active antiporter or exchanger ligands are on __sides
Opposite
What maintains the Na gradient
Na/K pump
What is the tertiary active transport
- Na/K maintains Na gradient
- Intracellular H is transported out via Na/H anti port
- Cl-/HCO3- exchange
What catalyzes H+ and bicarbonate production
Carboanydrase
What are the 3 forms of passive transport
- Transcellular
- Paracellular
- Facilitated diffusion
What is transceullar absorption
Ions following the electrochemical gradient through the ion channels in the apical membrane
What is paracellular absoprtion
Ions follow the electrochemical gradient and osmotic pressure through tight junctions
Tight junctions are freely permeable to __ and __
Water and small ions
What is facilitated diffusion
Spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across membrane specific transmembrane integral proteins
What transporter dose glucose and galactose use
SGLT-1
Where is SGLT-1 located
Next to glycocalyx enzymes on apical membrane
How is fructose transported across the membrane
Facilitated diffusion via GLUT-5
Once fructose is in cell it is phosphorylated and converted to ___
Glucose
Glucose is transported across the basolateral membrane via
Facilitated diffusion via GLUT-1
Glucose movement through the basolateral space is driven by ___
Diffusion
Describe how oral rehydration therapy works
Utilizes the Na+ glucose co-transporter and stimulates water reabsorption
Disorders of carbohydrate digestion and absorption are most commonly due to __deficiencies that prevent breakdown of carbohydrates to ___form
Enzyme, absorbable
How do unabsorbed carbohydrates cause diarrhea
Hold water and cause osmotic diarrhea
Proteins utilized what transporter on the apical membrane
Amino acid co-transporter (Na)
