چکیده

Bile salts are known to be essential for the effective absorption of fat from the intestinal tract (1). They have been shown to stimulate the action of pancreatic lipase (2) and have an important emulsifying action on water-insoluble dietary triglycerides that is probably related to their ability to form micelles with fatty acids and monoglycerides (3). In addition to their role in triglyceride absorption, bile salts also appear to be essential in the absorption and esterification of vitamin A (4) and cholesterol (5). In previous studies from this laboratory (6), it was shown that conjugated bile salts enhanced the esterification of palmitate-C14 to triglycerides and appeared to stimulate the incorporation of glucose-C14 into glyceride-glycerol. These observations suggested that in the intestinal mucosa, bile salts influence the metabolism not only of lipid, but also of carbohydrate. The present experiments were designed to investigate further the actions of conjugated and unconjugated bile salts on glucose metabolism. These studies have been carried out with slices of hamster small intestine. In addition, because of some disagreement in the literature concerning the utilization of glycerol in the intestine (7, 8), the metabolism of glucose and glycerol by hamster intestinal mucosa has been compared.

Morphological changes of the small-intestinal mucosa of guinea pig and hamster following incubation in vitro and perfusion in vivo with unconjugated bile salts.

Incubation in vitro of the intestine of the hamster and guinea pig with 5 mM sodium cholate and with 2 mM sodium deoxycholate and sodium chenodeoxycholate resulted in significant morphological changes compared with control incubations. Generally, no major differences were observed between proximal and distal small intestine or between the species used. Only when guinea pig intestine was incubat...

The effects of different bile salts on the absorption of fluid, electrolytes, and monosaccharides in the small intestine of the rat in vivo.

The effects of different bile salts on the absorption of fluid, electrolytes, and monosaccharides have been investigated in the rat small intestine in vivo. In the jejunum, deoxycholate (1 mM) impaired absorption of water and potassium, but not of sodium or glucose; at higher concentrations (2.5 and 5 mM) secretion of fluid and electrolytes occurred, and glucose and fructose absorption was impa...

Increase of active transport of conjugated bile salts in streptozotocin-diabetic rat small intestine.

Active transport of conjugated bile salts, Na-tauro- and Na-glycocholate and D-galactose, was examined in the small intestine of streptozotocin-diabetic rats by an in-vitro technique. Tissue uptake and mucosal to serosal transport of conjugated bile salts and D-galactose was enhanced in diabetic rat ileum. The minimal transport capacity for conjugated bile salts in the jejunum did not differ be...

The role of phosphorylation in glucose absorption from the intestine of the golden hamster.

The exact biochemical mechanism by which glucose is absorbed by the intestine against a concentration gradient is yet to be established. In 1933, Wilbrandt and Laszt (1) proposed the phosphorylation-dephosphorylation hypothesis for sugar absorption by the small intestine. In the same year Lundsgaard (2) suggested the same hypothesis for glucose reabsorption by the kidney tubules. Much of the ev...

Intestinal capacity to digest and absorb carbohydrates is maintained in a rat model of cholestasis.

Cholestasis is associated with systemic accumulation of bile salts and with deficiency of bile in the intestinal lumen. During the past years bile salts have been identified as signaling molecules that regulate lipid, glucose, and energy metabolism. Bile salts have also been shown to activate signaling routes leading to proliferation, apoptosis, or differentiation. It is unclear, however, wheth...
