Analysis, design and use of a Fourier-transform spectrometer for near infrared glucose absorption measurement
Noninvasive blood glucose monitoring is a long pursued goal in clinical therapy as an invaluable tool that would aid in the treatment of diabetes. The importance of such device is marked by the market value of glucose testing devices, which was estimated to be more than $2.5 billion worldwide in …

Effects of Chronic High Sucrose With Dietary or Drinking Inclusion on the Electrogenic Glucose Absorption in the Intestinal Tract of Mice (Mus musculus)
… on the intestinal electrogenic sodium dependent glucose transport, the first portal of entry for glucose, is unknown. Here female C57bl/6 mice fed a normal standard chow diet, and 20% sucrose in the drinking water for 8 months, or 35% sucrose inclusion in the diet for 12 months were assessed. The …

Glucose metabolism in the critically ill.
… tract is pivotal in the regulation of glucose metabolism in health and diabetes, this relationship had not been explored in the critically ill. The focus of this thesis is glucose metabolism in the critically ill, with a particular emphasis on the role of the gastrointestinal tract in …

Mechanisms of methylenedianiline toxicity to rat biliary epithelial cells
… also increases biliary inorganic phosphate and glucose, suggesting that DAPM loosens hepatic tight junctions. Early ultrastructural alterations in BEC mitochondria, however, suggested a possible role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the ability of BEC to maintain glucose transport and tight …

Sodium and glucose transport across the in vitro perfused midgut of the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus Rathbun
… animal, and (2) to elucidate the mechanism of glucose absorption across the midgut of C. sapidus and to assess its role in nutrient absorption. The transport processes across the gut tissues were studied with an in vitro perfusion technique. I demonstrated a net mucosal to serosal sodium …

Gastro-duodenal motility & nutrition in the critically ill.
… has clear therapeutic implications. Nutrient absorption has rarely been measured in the critically ill. GE and glucose absorption (using 3-O-methyl glucose) were measured simultaneously in 19 ICU patients and compared to 19 healthy subjects. Glucose absorption was shown to be markedly reduced …

The Termite Digestome: Understanding the Digestive Physiology Involved in Lignocellulosic Biomass Degradation
… (i.e., foregut and midgut) is the likely site of glucose absorption, 3) the termite and its symbionts contribute specific enzymes to the digestive process, 4) diet impacts biochemical and molecular aspects of termite digestive physiology, 5) the genetic makeup of the termite digestome is highly …

A Study of the Effects of Ovariectomy and Ovarian Hormone Replacement Therapy on Carbohydrate Metabolism in Mice
… hormone replacement therapy on the regulation of glucose homeostasis and certain aspects of lipid metabolism in adult female mice. Long-term (15 weeks) ovariectomy increased body weight, food intake and intestinal glucose absorption. This was accompanied by increased gluconeogenesis and reduced …

Butyrate-induced upregulation of intestinal glucose transport and signaling pathways represent a possible nutrient therapy for individuals with malabsorptive disorders
Individuals with significant intestinal malabsorption face challenges digesting and absorbing sufficient nutrients. A number of intestinal diseases, including celiac disease, short bowel syndrome (SBS), necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), and the inflammatory bowel diseases, Crohn’s disease and …

Anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins from blueberry and blackberry fermented beverages to reduce inflammation and type-2 diabetes: a comprehensive in vitro and in vivo evaluation
… enzymes that could be used to limit glucose absorption (Chapter 5). We then generated ANC- and PAC-enriched fractions and found that blueberry and blackberry ANC and PAC inhibited expression of proteins in the NF-κB-mediated pathway in macrophages, indicating potential to reduce …

Production, characterization and evaluation of anti-diabetes peptides from proteins of improved common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars using bioinformatic tools, enzymatic systems, and in vitro and in vivo models
… potential to bind and blocking intestinal glucose transporters SGLT1 and GLUT2. Besides, using Caco-2 cells monolayer insert we observed that protein fractions reduce glucose absorption by 6.5 and 24.5 after 30 min and 24 h, respectively. It could be due to protein fractions were also able …

Pre-, pro-, and synbiotic modulation of the intestinal microbiota stimulates enteroendocrine mediated intestinal adaptation in piglets with short-bowel syndrome
… which was associated with increased electrogenic glucose absorption as measured ex vivo in modified Ussing chambers (R2 = 0.477, P = 0.0529). The probiotic, LGG, primarily colonized the ileal digesta where it increased total Lactobacillus (all P = 0.04). Specifically, PRO increased D-lactate …

Assessment of chemical markers as surrogates for efficacy and safety of Rooibos extracts
… was used to measure 2-deoxy-[3H]-D-glucose absorption in C2C12 murine skeletal muscle and C3A human liver cells, exposed to 10 μg/mL of the extracts. The effect of the green rooibos extracts (GRE’s) and reference extracts ARC 2 and GRT on glucose uptake and lipid accumulation was …

Effects of psyllium in milk replacers for neonatal dairy calves
… circuit current induced by addition of 10 mM glucose. Glucose transport was greater in rumen, ileum, and colon from CON calves compared with calves fed PSY . These data could potentially indicate that psyllium inclusion slowed the rate of glucose absorption in the rumen, ileum, and colon. …

Mechanisms underlying monosaccharide stimulated incretin hormone secretion from the intestine
… in the pancreas and brain to improve blood glucose and appetite control. Due to the therapeutic benefits of GLP-1 signalling, understanding the factors that regulate its release are of continued interest. Gut hormones are produced by enteroendocrine cells (EECs) of the intestinal epithelium …

IMMUNOMODULATION AND INTESTINAL BARRIER PROTECTION ACTIVITIES OF A NOVEL SYNTHETIC GLUCOSE ANALOGUE IN INFLAMMATORY ANIMAL MODEL OF COLITIS AND ASTHMA.
… air. SGLT-1 is a co-transporter able to absorb D-glucose, against a concentration gradient, together with Na+. The expression of SGLT-1 on the apical membrane of enterocytes, the cells that line the gut and overlook to the intestinal lumen, is fundamental in order to obtain the maximum D-glucose …

Evaluation of sweet taste perception in habitual and non-habitual consumers of low-calorie sweeteners
… findings suggest that LCS may be impacting glucose regulation and could cause decreased insulin sensitivity in some consumers. Though exact mechanisms of these effects are unclear, it is possible that these changes in glucose regulation may be mediated by LCS-related changes in the signaling …

Gravity assisted continuous flow peritoneal dialysis (CFPD) in children with acute kidney injury
Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has long been a mainstay of acute kidney injury (AKI) management in children of all ages, and it remains the most commonly used modality in low-income regions, where continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) is not widely available. Compared to extracorporeal …
