SUCCUS ENTERICUS:
Small intestinal secretion: 2-3 L isotonic fluid/day • Brunner’s gland. • Crypts of Lieberkuhn. • Mucus from goblet cells. • Shed epithelial cell.
Peyers patches Enterochromaffin cells- Paneth cells Paneth cells- defensins, guanylin
Composition: Watery, Colorless. pH = 8 -9 (Alkaline fluid). Water – 98.5%. Solid - 1.5 %. Organic: Mucus , Enzymes. Inorganic : Na+ , K+, Ca+, Cl-, HCO-, PO4-
Enzymes: 1. Enterokinase TrypsinogenTrypsin 2. Amylase. Starch maltose. 3. Lipase. Fat Fatty acid +Glycerol. 4. Peptidases. Protein Amino acid.
5. Maltase . Maltose Glucose. 6. Lactase: Lactose Galactose + Glucose. 7. Nucleotidases: Nucleotides Nucleosides. 8.Nucleosidases: Nucleosides Purines + Pyramidines
Functions: 1. Complete digestion of: • Carbohydrates. • Proteins . • Fats. 2. Mucus – prevents damage of epithelium 3. immunoglobins- helps in intestinal secretion 4. Alkaline nature of brunner gland secretion- protects mucosa from acid chyme
Functions: 5. Absorption of water(75%) Applied : Malabsorption syndrome
Intestinal bacteria Normal intestinal flora Mainly in ileum E.Coli, Enterobacteraerogenes and Bacteroidsfragilis Functions : -Digestion and absorption of vitamins, minerals and water. • Synthesize vitamin K and B complexes • Helps in formation of short chain fatty acid
- Inhibit inflammatory process, IL-10 • Bile salts are converted to bile acid • Brown colour to stool by forming pigments from bile pigments. • Produces gases- normal flatus • Odour of feces • Interferes in absorption of LDL and cholesterol.
LARGE INTESTINE Mainly absorption of water. Slow passage of chyme. No villi. Crypts secrete isotonic solution. Numerous goblet cells. Composition: mainly mucous, HCO3-, K+
Colonic bacteria: 8L Rectal administration of drugs.
