villi are composed of
|
absorptive cells (enterocytes)
|
|
secretion of mucous by goblet cells is stimulated by
|
ACh
|
|
stem cells are located in the
|
base of the crypt
|
|
undifferentiated cells of the crypt secrete
|
NaCl (and water follows)
|
|
jejunal enterocytes absorb
ileal enterocytes absorb |
NaHCO3
NaCl |
|
Transcellular vs. Paracellular Pathway:
*passive diffusion *bulk flow *electrodiffusion *carrier-mediated transport *active transport |
*passive diffusion: both (diffusion into the lumen is mostly via paracellular pathway)
*bulk flow: paracellular *electrodiffusion: paracellular *carrier-mediated transport: transcellular *active transport: transcellular |
|
solutes and nutrients absorbed by the jejunum (5)
|
monosaccharides
proteins fats water-solube vitamins fat-soluble vitamins |
|
solutes and nutrients absorbed by the distal ileum (2)
|
vitamin B12 (complexed with intrinsic factor)
bile salts |
|
ability to adapt
ileum can take over for jejunm? jejunum can take over for ileum? |
ileum can take over for jejunm? Yes
jejunum can take over for ileum? No |
|
jejunal enterocyte absorbs (4)
|
Na (Na/H exchanger or Na/glucose co-transporter)
HCO3 (HCO3/Cl exchanger) glucose (Na/glucose co-transporter) amino acids (Na/amino acid co-transporter) |
|
ways in which Na enters the apical membrane of the jejunal enterocyte (2)
|
Na/glucose or Na/amino acid co-transporter
Na/H exchanger |
|
Na leaves the jejunal enterocyte via
|
Na/K ATPase pump (located at the basolateral membrane)
|
|
membrane potential on the serosal side of the jejunal enterocyte:
*before a meal *after a meal |
*before a meal: +5 mV
*after a meal: +15 mV (due to electrogenicity of Na/K ATPase pump) |
|
ileal enterocyte absorbs (1)
|
NaCl
|
|
way in which NaCl enters the ileal enterocyte
|
Na/H exchanger (apical membrane)
HCO3/Cl exchanger (apical membrane) |
|
NaCl absorption by the ileum is inhibited by
|
increased levels of cAMP
|
|
cAMP production is stimulated by (4)
|
ACh
VIP (when vipomas are present) E.coli Vibriocholera toxin |
|
inhibition of NaCl absorption leads to
|
diarrhea (water follows NaCl into ileal lumen)
|
|
NaCl enters the lumen of the jejunum, ileum, and colon via:
*cell type *transporters (2) |
crypt cells
CFTR Cl channel (apical membrane) Na/K/2Cl sympoter (basolateral membrane) |
|
conductane of the CFTR Cl channel is increased by
|
increasing levels of cAMP
|
|
conductane of K channel is increased by
|
increased intracellular Ca (due to ACh)
|
|
endogenous secretory stimuli (8)

jejunal enterocytes absorb Ca via
|
Ca+CaBP ATPase
|
|
Ca ATPase is activated by
|
calmodulin
|
|
calcium binding protein (CABP) synthesis in the intestine is stimulated by
|
1,25(OH)2D3 (vitamin D3)
|
|
vitamin D synthesis pathway
|
7-dehydrocholesterol (skin) + UV light --> vitamin D3/cholecalciferol (liver) --> 25(OH)D3 (kidney) --> 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25(OH)2D3)
|
|
increased plasma [Ca] results in (4)
|
decreased secretion of PTH
inhibition of 1,25(OH)2D3 formation decreased synthesis of CABP decreased absorption of Ca |
