Preferential oxidation of fatty acids by rat small intestine.
In a previous study from this laboratory it was shown that mitochondria can be harvested from rat small intestinal epithelial cells and that these mitochondria show intact oxidative phosphorylation [ 11. Further studies [2] showed that the isolated mitochondria are able to oxidize octanoate and palmitate completely to CO? and HzO, whereas earlier studies [3] showed that 3-hydroxybuty rate is al...
متن کاملUptake and Metabolism of Plasma Glutamine by the Small Intestine*
An isolated, vascularly perfused preparation of rat intestine extracted large amounts of glutamine (75 pmoles per hour), but no other amino acid, from a recirculated blood perfusate. With L-[UJ%]glutamine, the carbon was partly incorporated into tissue acid-insoluble material (14%) and the rest reappeared with little delay in intestinal venous blood in COZ (57%), citrulline (6%), proline (5%), ...
متن کاملEffect of glucocorticoid treatment on glucose and glutamine metabolism by the small intestine of the rat.
1. The effect of dexamethasone (30 micrograms day-1 100 g-1 body wt.) on the metabolism of glucose and glutamine was studied in the small intestine of rats after 9 days of treatment. 2. Dexamethasone treatment resulted in negative nitrogen balance (P less than 0.001), and produced increases in the concentrations of plasma glucose (22%, P less than 0.05), alanine (32%, P less than 0.001) and ins...
متن کاملEnhanced Permeability of Etoposide across Everted Sacs of Rat Small Intestine by Vitamin E-TPGS
Etoposide, a widely used anticancer drug, exhibits low and variable oral bioavailability mainly because of being substrate for the efflux transporter, P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Therefore, the present study was aimed to investigate the effect of D-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) and PEG 400 as P-gp inhibitors on the intestinal absorption of etoposide. Everted sacs of rat smal...
متن کاملHistomorphometric changes of small intestine in pregnant rat
Food intake of rats increases during pregnancy. This requires changes in the structure of the small intestine to absorb additional food. The aim of the present study was to investigate the morphological changes in the layers of small intestine in rats during pregnancy. Duodenum, jejunum and ileum of 18 pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats (day 7, 14 and 21 of pregnancy) were collected. Villous height a...
