Intestinal Calcium Absorption

Comprehensive Physiology, 2021
AbstractIn this article, we focus on mammalian calcium absorption across the intestinal epithelium in normal physiology. Intestinal calcium transport is essential for supplying calcium for metabolism and bone mineralization. Dietary calcium is transported across the mucosal epithelia via saturable transcellular and nonsaturable paracellular pathways ...

Intestinal cholesterol absorption

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1999
The strong association between intestinal cholesterol absorption and total plasma cholesterol level has renewed interest in the absorptive process and stimulated the generation of new animal models. Increasingly, new studies suggest that cholesterol absorption is genetically controlled and supports a protein-mediated mechanism for cholesterol uptake ...

Intestinal iron absorption

Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2012
Intestinal iron absorption is a critical process for maintaining body iron levels within the optimal physiological range. Iron in the diet is found in a wide variety of forms, but the absorption of non-heme iron is best understood. Most of this iron is moved across the enterocyte brush border membrane by the iron transporter divalent metal-ion ...

Intestinal Absorption of Fat

Protoplasma, 1967
Divergent views on the mechanism of fat absorption that prevailed during the past 100 years have recently narrowed to a concept in which most investigators concur. This subject has been recently reviewed (Johnston 1963, Clement 1964, Senior 1964). The distinct (phases of the digestion and absorption of fats will be discussed in the following sections.

Intestinal oxalate absorption

Research in Experimental Medicine, 1977
Enteric hyperoxaluria and oxalate urolithiasis in patients with ileal resection seem to be caused by intestinal hyperabsorption of oxalate. The mechanism responsible for hyperabsorption of oxalate is not known. Intestinal transport of oxalic acid was therefore examined by an in vitro technique in rat intestine.

Intestinal absorption of galactose

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1960
Abstract Galactose absorption from the rat intestine was studied in the intact animal, in the perfused intestine and in the isolated intestinal loop. In the intact animal an average porto-arterial difference of 16.1 milligram per cent galactose was found. At the same time there was no porto-arterial difference in the total reducing sugar.

INTESTINAL ABSORPTION

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1928
There are many occasions when physicians or surgeons wish to use a diet with the least possible residue, particularly in the treatment of patients with diarrhea and following operations about the rectum or anus. If the fecal residues can be made small enough, and if defecation can be postponed for a week or more, not only will the patient be spared ...

Intestinal absorption of vitamins

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 1999
This article provides an overview of advances in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms and regulation of intestinal absorption processes of vitamins. The vitamins covered are the water-soluble vitamins folic acid, cobalamin (vitamin B12), biotin, pantothenic acid, and thiamine (vitamin B1) and the lipid-soluble vitamin A.

Intestinal absorption of heparin

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1969
Dimethylsulfoxide and diethylsulfone, and their homologues, induced the absorption of heparin from the rabbit intestine.Using the criterion of prolongation of whole blood clotting time, it was found that the quantitative absorption of heparin, as induced by di-n-propylsulfoxide or di-n-propylsulfone, increased with increasing amount of sodium ...
