The optimal utilization of nutrients requires an integrated response of the gastrointestinal tract to ingested food. Broad mechanisms are similar in all mammals and involve sensing food components through olfaction, taste and specialized receptors within the stomach and intestines. The sensing of food components leads to release of gut hormones and activation of nerves, which in turn modify dig...
متن کاملCOMPARATIVE GUT PHYSIOLOGY SYMPOSIUM: Comparative physiology of digestion.
The digestive systems of all species have been shaped by environmental pressures over long evolutionary time spans. Nevertheless, all digestive systems must achieve the same end points, the ingestion of biological material and its conversion to molecules that serve as energy substrates and structural components of tissues. A range of strategies to extract nutrients, including for animals relian...
