Wk3 H20, Electrolyte, Intestinal Motility Flashcards
substance that promotes bowel loosening and movement
Purgative
feeling of needing to pass stool even when bowel is empty
tenesmus
Location of cells that absorb fluid:
tips of villi
Location of cells that secrete fluid:
crypts
How does sodium get in apical side for water to follow?
NHE
sodium hydrogen exchanger
How does chloride get in apical side to join sodium and water follow?
Chloride/Bicarb exchanger
Electrogenic uptake of water?
Na+ / Glucose (SGLT1-apical) (GLUT-2, basolateral)
**Cl- and H20 follow passively via tight junctions
long reflex regulator of Cl- secretion:
Ach
VIP
GI peptide in goblet and ECL cells
increases cGMP
promotes Cl- secretion via CFTR
Guanylin
Drug that activate guanylate cyclase type C to treat constipation:
Linaclotide
The bulk of fluid reabsorption is driven by?
Nutrient-coupled electrogenic sodium absorption
SGLT-1
Na/AA
How does sodium enter COLONOcytes?
ENaCs
electrogenic
mostly in distal colon
What stimulates ENaC expression in colonocytes?
Aldosterone
just like the kidney!
How does electroneutral NaCl absorption occur n the colon?
NHE’s
Na+/H+
Name some secretagogues (enhance secretion)
PNS–Ach
VIP/NO
Histamine
PG’s
gastrin
secretin
motilin
serotonin
LCFAs
bile salts
Bacterial toxins
