Absorption of vitamin C from the human buccal cavity.

چکیده
1. Ascorbic acid was absorbed across the mucosa of the human mouth. 2. Omission of sodium ions from the medium decreased the absorption of ascorbic acid. 3. The presence of D-glucose, or 3-O-methyl-D-glucose, increased the absorption of ascorbic acid but D-fructose had little effect and D-mannitol had no effect. 4. Calcium ions also increased ascorbic acid absorption probably by a secondary effect on "Na+ fluxes. 5. Buccal mucosa was also permeable to dehydroascorbic acid and D-isoascorbic acid.

possible inhibition of absorption by folic acid as it interfered with the PAB assay. We conclude that PAB passes across human buccal mucosa by a non-saturable, Na+ -independent process presumably physical diffusion. These transport characteristics of PAB are similar to those found with small intestine of rats and hamsters in vitro (Spencer et al., 1966; Arvanitakis, 1978). PAB will be 92% ioniz...
متن کاملAntioxidants reduce microleakage of resin-based composite fillings and the associated toxicity after bleaching human teeth
Background: Bleaching teeth is popular because the discoloration is a major people’s concern. This study aimed to compare the effect of three antioxidants on the microleakage of composite resin filling after bleaching teeth with 35% H2O2, thus minimizing the potential clinical toxicity of filling materials entering patients’ body. Methods: Sixty-six extracted intact teeth were included in this...
متن کاملAspirin inhibition of glucose absorption from the human mouth.
Aspirin inhibited glucose absorption from the gastrointestinal tract of the human in viuo (Arvanitakis et al., 1977) and the rat in vitro (Cooke el al., 1979). Glucose was absorbed from the human mouth apparently by a Na+-dependent carrier-mediated process (Manning & Evered, 1976). The aim of the present study was to investigate whether aspirin also inhibited glucose transport across buccal muc...
متن کاملThe absorption of sugars from the human buccal cavity.
1. Certain sugars were transported across the buccal mucosa by a carrier-mediated mechanism. 2. The metabolic loss of sugars from the mouth in a 5 min test period was negligible. 3. The buccal mucosal transport process was stereospecific for D-glucose and L-arabinose. 4. The absorption of D-glucose, galactose and 3-O-methyl-D-glucose was at least partly dependent on the presence of sodium ions ...
متن کاملFocal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck’s disease): a case report from Iran
Focal epithelial hyperplasia or Heck’s disease is a benign, rare viral disease of the oral cavity and is associated with human papillomavirus 13 and 32 (HPV-13 and HPV-32). Most patients are children but adults may also be at risk. Clinically, the patients have multiple small white or pink papules on the mucosal surface of the lips, buccal mucosa and the tongue. In Iran, this disease seems to b...
