PY - 2014 T2 - Gastrointestinal Physiology, 2e AB - Understand the barriers to assimilation of water-soluble macromolecules into the bodyDescribe dietary sources of carbohydrates, and the pathways involved in the digestion and absorption of carbohydrate polymers, dietary disaccharides, and monosaccharidesDefine the relative roles of luminal and brush border digestion for each type of carbohydrateIdentify the membrane transporters involved in the uptake of monosaccharidesDescribe how carbohydrate assimilation is regulated during development and by specific dietary componentsCompare and contrast protein assimilation with that of carbohydratesIdentify essential amino acids, and understand why they must be provided in the dietDescribe pathways involved in the digestion and absorption of proteins, peptides, and amino acidsDefine the relative roles of luminal, brush border, and cytosolic digestion for each substrateExplain how the epithelium can transport a diverse set of peptides into the bodyUnderstand how protein assimilation is regulatedDefine how key water-soluble vitamins are taken up into the bodyDescribe conditions where the absorption of water-soluble components of the diet is abnormalAppreciate the basis of lactose intolerance, and why it is common in adults SN - PB - The McGraw-Hill Companies CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/03/28 UR - accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57851128 ER -
