•
Digestion and absorption of protein
Digestion and absorption of carbohydrate
Digestion and absorption of lipid
Bile and bilirubin metabolism
Microvilli of Small Intestine
Digestion and Absorption
• Protein : amino acids, di‐ and tripeptides
• Carbohydrate : Monosaccharides
• Lipid : Free fatty acids, glycerol and monoglycerides
(triglyceride)
2‐monoacylglycerol and 1‐monoacylglycerol
(monoglyceride)
Digestion and Absorption
• Enzymes
• Proenzyme Æ active enzyme
• Optimal conditions
• pH
• Cofactors of enzymes, electrolytes (need transporters eg Na+/K+ ATPase), bile (helps to form micelles)
Digestion and Absorption
• Oral cavity
• Mechanical homogenization of food, and mixing food with secretion from salivary glands
• Saliva – electrolytes and enzymes (amylase and lingual lipase)
• Amylase hydrolyses internal α(1,4) glycosidic linkage of polysaccharides
• Lingual lipase hydrolyses triacylglycerol into free fatty acid and diacylglycerol (not effective) Digestion and Absorption
• Stomach
• Reservoir function
• Churning ability – motor function
• Secrete enzymes (pepsinogen and gastric lipase from chief cells), HCl and intrinsic factor (from parietal cells), gastrin hormone (mainly from G cells of stomach; little by duodenum and pancreas)
Acid Secretion in Stomach
(5) Carbonic anhydrase
Passive diffusion
Acid and Enzyme Secretion in Stomach
• 1) HCl is newly synthesized within parietal cells, no storage within the cells
• 2) Goblet cells secrete protective mucus with HCO3 layer
• 3) Digestive enzymes are in proenzyme
isoforms eg. pepsinogen
Function of Gastric Acid
• Activate pepsinogen to active pepsin and provide optimal pH for pepsin activity (pH 1.8‐3.5)
• Denature protein
• Kill microorganisms • Help to ionize salts eg calcium, iron Gastrin
• Stimulate parietal cells to secrete HCl acid
• Stimulate pepsinogen secretion
• Increase gastric motility
• Peptides, amino acid, high pH – stimulators
• Somatostatin, low pH ‐ inhibitors
Gastrin
ECL = Enterochromaffin‐like cells
SST = Somatostatin
Zollinger‐Ellison syndrome
(gastrinoma)
Vitamin B12 absorption
Intrinsic factor – parietal cells
R‐proteins – Salivary gland
Pernicious anemia
Gastrectomy, gastric bypass,
Ileitis, Crohn’s disease, Achlorhydria
Pancreas and Small Intestine
Major organs for digestion and
absorption
Large reserve capacity; pancreatic secretion needs to drop <10% to have
maldigestion
Final step of carbohydrate and protein
digestion occurs at brush border of small intestine by the attached enzymes
Lipid digestion is completed by pancreatic
lipase at small intestine, not enzymes that
attached to the brush border
Proenzymes
Secretagogues
• A substance that stimulates secretion of other substances
• Could be neurotransmitters, hormones, pharmacological agents or bacterial toxins
Secretagogues
Cholecystokinin (CCK) or Pancreozymin
• CCK is stimulated by protein and fat entering duodenum
• Secreted by small intestine mucosa • Stimulate gall bladder contraction and pancreatic enzyme secretion
• Inhibit gastric acid secretion and delay gastric emptying time
Secretin
• Secreted by duodenal mucosa
• Stimulated by acidic pH of food content entering duodenum
• Stimulate pancreas to release NaHCO3 to neutralize gastric acid
• Coordinate with CCK to stimulate pancreatic enzymes
Gut Hormones
Digestion and Absorption of Protein
Pepsin Activation
First 46 amino acids at NH2‐terminus is automatically cleaved
when pH<5 (autoactivation)
Pepsin can induce autocatalysis
Pepsinogen is secreted
simultaneously with gastric acid
Protein Digestive Enzymes
Digestive Enzymes at Brush Border
Protein Digestive Enzymes
Digestion and Absorption of Protein
Intracellular di‐ and tripeptidase
Amino acids ‐
Di‐ or tripeptides ‐
Amino acids ‐
Luminal Na+ dependent cotransporter
H+ cotransporter
Contraluminal Na+ independent transporter
Digestion and Absorption of Carbohydrate
α‐Amylase
Salivary amylase and pancreatic
amylase
Cleave α(1,4) glycosidic bond
Dextrin, maltotriose, maltose,
glucose
α‐Amylase
Digestion and Absorption of Carbohydrate
Carbohydrate Digestive Enzymes at Brush Border
Digestion and Absorption of Carbohydrate
Na+ monosaccharide cotransporter = SGLT1 Æ luminal transporter for Glu and Gal Glucose transporter 5 = GLUT5 Æ luminal transporter for Fructose
Glucose transporter 2 = GLUT2 Æ contraluminal transporter for Glu, Gal and Fruc
Digestion and Absorption of Lipid
• Lipase
• Lingual lipase Æ FA + DAG
• Gastric lipase Æ FA + DAG
• Pancreatic lipase Æ FA + 2‐MAG Æ 2‐MAG can be changed to 1‐MAG
Æ 1‐MAG can be cleaved further to glycerol at the lumen or inside intestinal cells
• Intestinal lipase Æ cleave 1‐MAG into FA and glycerol
(Glycerol in the lumen is absorbed and sent directly into blood stream, but glycerol generated within enterocytes is used in new lipid synthesis)
Free fatty acids + 2‐monoglyceride
Digestion and Absorption of Lipid
Digestion and Absorption of Lipid
Digestive polar products form emulsion droplets by mechanical mixing of stomach
Pharmacological Agents to Prevent Fat Absorption
Fatty acids with
sucrose
Taste like lipid but can
not be hydrolysed
Non‐hydrolyzable analog
Inhibit pancreatic lipase
Bile acids
• Bile is a biological detergent
• Help digestion and absorption of lipid
• Disperse lipid into micelles
• Increase transport of free fatty acid and monoglyceride
through enterocyte lining
• Synthesized by liver and secreted as taurine and glycine conjugates
• Reabsorbed at ileum and return to liver with blood circulation and re‐secreted again by liver
Bile acids
Bile Micelles
Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) = minimal concentration of bile acids to
form micelles
