Minireview on Regulation of Intestinal Calcium Absorption
An overview of current information on the mechanisms by which intestinal calcium absorption occurs is described in this article. Both paracellular and transcellular pathways are analyzed. Special emphasis focuses on molecules participating in the latter pathway, such as TRPV5 and TRPV6 channels, located in the apical region of the enterocytes, CB 9k and CB 28k , presumably involved in the catio...
متن کاملIron imports. I. Intestinal iron absorption and its regulation.
Our knowledge of how the body absorbs iron from the diet and how this process is controlled has increased at a rapid rate in recent years. The identification of key molecules, including the iron regulatory peptide hepcidin, and the analysis of how they are regulated and interact have led to the development of an integrated model for the control of iron absorption by body iron requirements. Rese...
متن کاملOxidative stress, antioxidants and intestinal calcium absorption
The disequilibrium between the production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species and their elimination by protective mechanisms leads to oxidative stress. Mitochondria are the main source of ROS as by-products of electron transport chain. Most of the time the intestine responds adequately against the oxidative stress, but with aging or under conditions that exacerbate the ROS and/o...
متن کاملRecent developments in intestinal calcium absorption.
Calcium absorption proceeds by transcellular and paracellular flux, with the latter accounting for most absorbed calcium when calcium intake is adequate. Vitamin D helps regulate transcellular calcium transport by increasing calcium uptake via a luminal calcium channel and by inducing the cytosolic calcium transporting protein, calbindinD(9k). Recent studies utilizing knockout mice have challen...
متن کاملIntestinal glucose sensing and regulation of intestinal glucose absorption.
SGLT1 (Na(+)/glucose co-transporter 1) transports the dietary sugars, D-glucose and D-galactose, from the lumen of the intestine into enterocytes. SGLT1 regulation has important consequences for the provision of glucose to the respiring tissues and is therefore essential for maintaining glucose homoeostasis. SGLT1 expression is directly regulated in response to changes in the sugar content of t...
