Robbins GI: malabsorption table 17-7

Question 1

This malabsorptive disease creates problems in transepithelial transport and terminal digestion

Answer 1

Celiac dx

1. Intraluminal digestion, in which proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are broken down into forms suitable for absorption;
2. Terminal digestion, which involves the hydrolysis of carbohydrates and peptides by disaccharidases and peptidases in the brush border of the small intestinal mucosa;
3. Transepithelial transport, in which nutrients, fluid, and electrolytes are transported across and processed within the small intestinal epithelium
4. Lymphatic transport of absorbed lipids.
