The colonic epithelium has both absorptive and secretory functions. The transport is
characterized by a net absorption of NaCl, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), and water …

The ten-member SLC26 gene family encodes anion exchangers capable of transporting a
wide variety of monovalent and divalent anions. The physiological role (s) of individual …

The cytoplasmic carboxyl-terminal domain of AE1, the plasma membrane
chloride/bicarbonate exchanger of erythrocytes, contains a binding site for carbonic …

The microbial community of the yak (Bos grunniens) rumen plays an important role in
surviving the harsh Tibetan environment where seasonal dynamic changes in pasture cause …

HCO 3− secretion is the most important defense mechanism against acid injury in the
duodenum. However, the identity of the transporter (s) mediating apical HCO 3− secretion in …

Incomplete synthesis and neo-synthesis are two major concepts for cancer-associated
alterations of cell surface carbohydrate determinants, formulated by Hakomori and …

The SLC16A family of monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) is composed of 14 members.
MCT1 through MCT4 (MCTs 1–4) are H+-coupled monocarboxylate transporters, MCT8 and …

In this review, we focus on the role of gastrointestinal transport of oxalate primarily from a
contemporary physiological standpoint with an emphasis on those aspects that we believe …

▪ Abstract The intestines play an important role in the absorption and secretion of nutrients.
The colon is the final area for recapturing electrolytes and water prior to excretion, and in …

The colon is believed to absorb NaCl via the coupled operation of apical Na/H exchanger-3
(NHE3) and Cl/HCO3 exchanger SLC26A3 (DRA). Efficient coupling requires that NHE3 …
