Whole body homeostasis can be viewed as the balance between absorption and excretion, which can be regulated independently. Present evidence suggests that for iron, intestinal absorption is the main site for homeostatic regulation, while for copper it is biliary excretion. There are connections between iron and copper in intestinal absorption and transport. The blue copper plasma protein, ceruloplasmin, and its intracellular homologue, hephaestin, play a role in cellular iron release. The studies reviewed here compare effects of Fe(II) and Cu(II) on their uptake and overall transport by monolayers of polarized Caco2 cells, which model intestinal mucosa. In the physiological range of concentrations, depletion of cellular iron or copper (by half) increased uptake of both metal ions. Depletion of iron or copper also enhanced overall transport of iron from the apical to the basal chamber. Copper depletion enhanced overall copper transport, but iron depletion did not. Pretreatment with excess copper also stimulated copper absorption. Plasma ceruloplasmin (added to the basal chamber) failed to enhance basolateral iron release, and Zn(II) failed to compete with Cu(II) for uptake. Neither copper nor iron deficiency altered expression of IREG1 or DMT1 (-IRE form) at the mRNA level. Thus, in the low-normal range of iron and copper availability, intestinal absorption of both metals appears to be positively related to the need for these elements by the whole organism. The two metal ions also influenced each other's transport; but with copper excess, other mechanisms come into play. 相似文献

Cells tightly regulate iron levels through the activity of iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) that bind to RNA motifs called iron responsive elements (IREs). When cells become iron-depleted, IRPs bind to IREs present in the mRNAs of ferritin and the transferrin receptor, resulting in diminished translation of the ferritin mRNA and increased translation of the transferrin receptor mRNA. Similarly, body iron homeostasis is maintained through the control of intestinal iron absorption. Intestinal epithelia cells sense body iron through the basolateral endocytosis of plasma transferrin. Transferrin endocytosis results in enterocytes whose iron content will depend on the iron saturation of plasma transferrin. Cell iron levels, in turn, inversely correlate with intestinal iron absorption. In this study, we examined the relationship between the regulation of intestinal iron absorption and the regulation of intracellular iron levels by Caco-2 cells. We asserted that IRP activity closely correlates with apical iron uptake and transepithelial iron transport. Moreover, overexpression of IRE resulted in a very low labile or reactive iron pool and increased apical to basolateral iron flux. These results show that iron absorption is primarily regulated by the size of the labile iron pool, which in turn is regulated by the IRE/IRP system. 相似文献

Nramp2 expression is associated with pH-dependent iron uptake across the apical membrane of human intestinal Caco-2 cells 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24

The absorption of dietary non-heme iron by intestinal enterocytes is crucial to the maintenance of body iron homeostasis. This process must be tightly regulated since there are no distinct mechanisms for the excretion of excess iron from the body. An insight into the cellular mechanisms has recently been provided by expression cloning of a divalent cation transporter (DCT1) from rat duodenum and positional cloning of its human homologue, Nramp2. Here we demonstrate that Nramp2 is expressed in the apical membrane of the human intestinal epithelial cell line, Caco 2 TC7, and is associated with functional iron transport in these cells with a substrate preference for iron over other divalent cations. Iron transport occurs by a proton-dependent mechanism, exhibiting a concurrent intracellular acidification. Taken together, these data suggest that the expression of the Nramp2 transporter in human enterocytes may play an important role in intestinal iron absorption. 相似文献

Relationship between intestinal iron-transporter expression,hepatic hepcidin levels and the control of iron absorption 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19

Hepcidin is an anti-microbial peptide predicted to be involved in the regulation of intestinal iron absorption. We have examined the relationship between the expression of hepcidin in the liver and the expression of the iron-transport molecules divalent-metal transporter 1, duodenal cytochrome b, hephaestin and Ireg1 in the duodenum of rats switched from an iron-replete to an iron-deficient diet or treated to induce an acute phase response. In each case, elevated hepcidin expression correlated with reduced iron absorption and depressed levels of iron-transport molecules. These data are consistent with hepcidin playing a role as a negative regulator of intestinal iron absorption. 相似文献

Iron homeostasis in the human body is maintained primarily through regulation of iron absorption in the duodenum. The liver peptide hepcidin plays a central role in this regulation. Additionally, expression and functional control of certain components of the cellular iron transport machinery can be influenced directly by the iron status of enterocytes. The significance of this modulation, relative to the effects of hepcidin, and the comparative effects of iron obtained directly from the diet and/or via the bloodstream are not clear. The studies described here were performed using Caco-2 cell monolayers as a model of intestinal epithelium, to compare the effects of iron supplied in physiologically relevant forms to either the apical or basolateral surfaces of the cells. Both sources of iron provoked increased cellular ferritin content, indicating iron uptake from both sides of the cells. Supply of basolateral transferrin-bound iron did not affect subsequent iron transport across the apical surface, but reduced iron transport across the basolateral membrane. In contrast, the apical iron supply led to subsequent reduction in iron transport across the apical cell membrane without altering iron export across the basolateral membrane. The apical and basolateral iron supplies also elicited distinct effects on the expression and subcellular distribution of iron transporters. These data suggest that, in addition to the effects of cellular iron status on the expression of iron transporter genes, different modes and direction of iron supply to enterocytes can elicit distinct functional effects on iron transport.

The balances and content of essential elements (iron, copper, zinc, chromium and manganese) in the body of Wistar, Zucker lean and Zucker obese rats fed a reference or cafeteria diet from day 30 to 60 after birth have been studied. Intestinal iron absorption compensated for low iron content of the cafeteria diet and the extra needs of growth and fat deposition. It can be assumed that the altered energy regulation processes that afflict the genetically obese rat are not directly related to altered iron metabolism. Obese Zucker rats had lower copper tissue concentrations than lean rats, but when fed a cafeteria diet the differences between Zucker rats strains disappear. This cannot be traced to large differences in diet copper concentration. A low diet availability of zinc—such as that of cafeteria-fed fa/fa rats—is easily compensated for by increasing absorption. So, as a consequence, we can conclude that genetic obesity did not impair zinc absorption. There was no deficit of zinc in any of the groups studied; the rats have enough capacity to extract zinc within a wide range of dietary concentrations. The absorption of dietary chromium was inversely proportional to its concentration. The ability to extract chromium from the diet and the very low urinary losses are a consequence of its scarcity in most dietary items. Despite wide variations in the manganese of the diets, the absorption rates were practically unchanged except for obese rats fed the cafeteria diet. It seems that this low absorptive capacity is enough to supply the rat with the manganese it needs, since a sizeable—but subjected to 8-fold-span variations-proportion is lost in the urine. This alone points towards a considerable excess of manganese in both diets studied. Obesity does not have a significant effect on the abilities to absorb and retain minerals, since these processes were more related to dietary availability. Management of essential metals by obese rats depends whether this condition is genetic or induced by diet. Most of the differences observed can be related to differences in diet concentration, to the excess fat content or different metabolic attitude to use substrates of obese animals. The data presented show that the cafeteria diet used adequately serves the mineral needs of the rat, since the rat adapts its absorbing and retaining strategies to match the dietary availability of these minerals. 相似文献

Our knowledge of mammalian iron metabolism has advanced dramatically over recent years. Iron is an essential element for virtually
all living organisms. Its intestinal absorption and accurate cellular regulation is strictly required to ensure the coordinated
synthesis of the numerous iron-containing proteins involved in key metabolic processes, while avoiding the uptake of excess
iron that can lead to organ damage. A range of different proteins exist to ensure this fine control within the various tissues
of the body. Among these proteins, transferrin receptor (TFR2) seems to play a key role in the regulation of iron homeostasis.
Disabling mutations in TFR2 are responsible for type 3 hereditary hemochromatosis (Type 3 HH). This review describes the biological
properties of this membrane receptor, with a particular emphasis paid to the structure, function and cellular localization.
Although much information has been garnered on TFR2, further efforts are needed to elucidate its function in the context of
the iron regulatory network. 相似文献

The amount of iron in the body is controlled at the point of absorption in the proximal small intestine. Dietary iron enters the intestinal epithelium via the brush-border transporter DMT1 and exits through the basolateral membranes. The basolateral transfer of iron requires two components: a copper-containing iron oxidase known as hephaestin and a membrane transport protein IREG1. The amount of iron traversing the enterocytes is directly related to body iron requirements and inversely related to the iron content of the intestinal epithelium. We propose that body signals control iron absorption by first acting on crypt enterocytes to determine the expression of basolateral transport components. This, in turn, modulates the intracellular iron content of mature epithelial cells, which ultimately determines the activity of the brush-border transporter DMT1. 相似文献

Short-term alterations in the amount of iron in the diets of rats caused substantial differences in the distribution of a test dose of radioiron between mucosal transferrin and mucosal ferritin, and also caused a change in the relative amounts of these two proteins in mucosal tissue without resulting in any detectable change in liver iron stores. These differences correlated with changes in the retention of radioiron by the intestinal mucosa and the transport of radioiron to the blood stream. These studies emphasize the importance of local changes in the intestinal mucosa in the regulation of dietary iron absorption. 相似文献

Impact of murine intestinal apolipoprotein A-IV expression on regional lipid absorption, gene expression, and growth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Apolipoprotein A-IV (apoA-IV) is synthesized by intestinal enterocytes during lipid absorption and secreted into lymph on the surface of nascent chylomicrons. A compelling body of evidence supports a central role of apoA-IV in facilitating intestinal lipid absorption and in regulating satiety, yet a longstanding conundrum is that no abnormalities in fat absorption, feeding behavior, or weight gain were observed in chow-fed apoA-IV knockout (A4KO) mice. Herein we reevaluated the impact of apoA-IV expression in C57BL6 and A4KO mice fed a high-fat diet. Fat balance and lymph cannulation studies found no effect of intestinal apoA-IV gene expression on the efficiency of fatty acid absorption, but gut sac transport studies revealed that apoA-IV differentially modulates lipid transport and the number and size of secreted triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in different anatomic regions of the small bowel. ApoA-IV gene deletion increased expression of other genes involved in chylomicron assembly, impaired the ability of A4KO mice to gain weight and increase adipose tissue mass, and increased the distal gut hormone response to a high-fat diet. Together these findings suggest that apoA-IV may play a unique role in integrating feeding behavior, intestinal lipid absorption, and energy storage. 相似文献

1. Male quails submitted 20 and 120 days to a low iron diet (7 ppm) were compared to female laying quails, exposed for 30 days to the same low iron regime, in order to compare the response of the iron metabolic control under a single (erythropoiesis) or a doubled (erythropoiesis and egg formation) iron demand. 2. Iron deposit in storage organs, the classical hematology and the intestinal iron absorption were analyzed in these animals. 3. In males, after 120 days, the iron deposits were reduced 50 and 75%, but hematological values (hematocrit and hemoglobin concentration) were normal, although in laying quails, after 30 days, an anemic condition was evident in both blood parameters and iron deposits, provoking an iron deficient erythropoiesis. 4. The enhancement of the intestinal iron uptake, confirms the anemic character of these birds. 相似文献

Intestinal iron absorption is a critical process for maintaining body iron levels within the optimal physiological range. Iron in the diet is found in a wide variety of forms, but the absorption of non-heme iron is best understood. Most of this iron is moved across the enterocyte brush border membrane by the iron transporter divalent metal-ion transporter 1, a process enhanced by the prior reduction of the iron by duodenal cytochrome B and possibly other reductases. Enterocyte iron is exported to the blood via ferroportin 1 on the basolateral membrane. This transporter acts in partnership with the ferroxidase hephaestin that oxidizes exported ferrous iron to facilitate its binding to plasma transferrin. Iron absorption is controlled by a complex network of systemic and local influences. The liver-derived peptide hepcidin binds to ferroportin, leading to its internalization and a reduction in absorption. Hepcidin expression in turn responds to body iron demands and the BMP-SMAD signaling pathway plays a key role in this process. The levels of iron and oxygen in the enterocyte also exert important influences on iron absorption. Disturbances in the regulation of iron absorption are responsible for both iron loading and iron deficiency disorders in humans. 相似文献

The membrane-bound ceruloplasmin homolog hephaestin plays a critical role in intestinal iron absorption. The aims of this study were to clone the rat hephaestin gene and to examine its expression in the gastrointestinal tract in relation to other genes encoding iron transport proteins. The rat hephaestin gene was isolated from intestinal mRNA and was found to encode a protein 96% identical to mouse hephaestin. Analysis by ribonuclease protection assay and Western blotting showed that hephaestin was expressed at high levels throughout the small intestine and colon. Immunofluorescence localized the hephaestin protein to the mature villus enterocytes with little or no expression in the crypts. Variations in iron status had a small but nonsignificant effect on hephaestin expression in the duodenum. The high sequence conservation between rat and mouse hephaestin is consistent with this protein playing a central role in intestinal iron absorption, although its precise function remains to be determined. 相似文献

Only minimal quantities of ingested and normally secreted solutes and water are excreted in the stool. This near 100% bioavailability means that the diet and kidneys are relatively more important determinants of solute, water and acid-base balance than the intestine. Intestinal bioavailability is based on excess transport capacity under normal conditions and the ability to adapt to altered or abnormal conditions. Indeed, the regulatory system of the intestine is as complex, segmented and multi factorial as in the kidney. Alterations in the rate and intestinal site of absorption reflect this regulation, and the diagnosis and treatment of various clinical abnormalities depend on the integrity of intestinal absorptive processes. However, the basis for this regulation an bioavailability are uncertain. Perhaps they had survival value for mammals, a phylogenic class that faced the twin threats of intestinal pathogens and shortages of solutes and water. 相似文献

Previous studies have implicated copper proteins, including ceruloplasmin, in intestinal iron transport. Polarized Caco2 cells with tight junctions were used to examine the possibilities that (a) ceruloplasmin promotes iron absorption by enhancing release at the basolateral cell surface and (b) copper deficiency reduces intestinal iron transport. Iron uptake and overall transport were followed for 90 min with 1 &mgr;M 59Fe(II) applied to the apical surface of Caco2 cell monolayers. Apotransferrin (38 &mgr;M) was in the basolateral chamber. Induction of iron deficiency with desferrioxamine (100 &mgr;M; 18 h) markedly increased uptake and overall transport of iron. Uptake increased from about 20% to about 65% of dose, and overall 59Fe transport from <1% to 60% of dose. On the basis of actual iron released into the basal chamber (measured with bathophenanthroline), transport increased 8-fold. Desferrioxamine pretreatment reduced cellular Fe by 55%. The addition of freshly isolated, enzymatically active human ceruloplasmin to the basolateral chamber during absorption had no effect on uptake or transport of iron by the cells. Unexpectedly, pretreatment with three different chelators of copper (18 h), which reduced cellular levels about 40%, more than doubled iron uptake and raised overall transport to 20%. This was so, whether or not cells were also made iron deficient with desferrioxamine. Acute addition of 1 &mgr;M Cu(II) to the apical chamber had no significant effect upon iron uptake, retention, or transport in iron deficient or normal cells, in the presence of absence of ascorbate. We conclude that intestinal absorption of Fe(II) is unlikely to depend upon plasma ceruloplasmin, and that cuproproteins involved in this form of iron transport must be binding copper tightly. 相似文献

Induction of calbindin-D 9k mRNA but not calcium transport in rat intestine by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 24-homologs 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The function and precise mechanism of regulation of calbindin-D 9k in intestine is largely unknown. It is suggested that this calcium binding protein is involved in active intestinal calcium transport and that its expression is mainly mediated by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. We examined the effect of two side chain modified analogs of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as compared to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 itself on the regulation of the calbindin-D 9k at the mRNA level and on intestinal calcium transport in the rat. delta 22-24,24-dihomo-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 at a single dose of 500, 1,000, and 2,000 pmol caused greater than 7.0-fold increase in calbindin-D 9k mRNA without stimulating intestinal calcium transport. A 10,000-pmol dose of delta 22-24,24,24-trihomo-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 caused a 7.6-fold increase in calbindin-D 9k mRNA without significantly increasing intestinal absorption of calcium. In contrast, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 caused a parallel increase in calbindin-D 9k mRNA and intestinal absorption of calcium. Thus, calbindin 9k is not by itself responsible for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-mediated increase in intestinal absorption of calcium. 相似文献

It has already been demonstrated that the adaptation of intestinal calcium absorption of rats on a low calcium diet can be eliminated by thyroparathyroidectomy plus parathyroid hormone administration. This treatment elevates intestinal and plasma levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in rats on a high calcium diet while producing no change in rats on a low calcium diet. It therefore appears likely that the modulation of intestinal calcium absorption by dietary calcium is mediated by the parathyroid glands and the renal biogenesis of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Changes in the other unknown vitamin D metabolite levels as a result of dietary calcium are also modified by thyroparathyroidectomy and parathyroid hormone administration, but the effect of these metabolites on intestinal calcium transport is unknown. 相似文献

Regulation of intestinal glucose transport. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The small intestine is capable of adapting nutrient transport in response to numerous stimuli. This review examines several possible mechanisms involved in intestinal adaptation. In some cases, the enhancement of transport is nonspecific, that is, the absorption of many nutrients is affected. Usually, increased transport capacity in these instances can be attributed to an increase in intestinal surface area. Alternatively, some conditions induce specific regulation at the level of the enterocyte that affects the transport of a particular nutrient. Since the absorption of glucose from the intestine is so well characterized, it serves as a useful model for this type of intestinal adaptation. Four potential sites for the specific regulation of glucose transport have been described, and each is implicated in different situations. First, mechanisms at the brush-border membrane of the enterocyte are believed to be involved in the upregulation of glucose transport that occurs in streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus and alterations in dietary carbohydrate levels. Also, factors that increase the sodium gradient across the enterocyte may increase the rate of glucose transport. It has been suggested that an increase in activity of the basolaterally located Na(+)-K+ ATPase could be responsible for this phenomena. The rapid increase in glucose uptake seen in hyperglycemia seems to be mediated by an increase in both the number and activity of glucose carriers located at the basolateral membrane. More recently, it was demonstrated that mechanisms at the basolateral membrane also play a role in the chronic increase in glucose transport observed when dietary carbohydrate levels are increased. Finally, alterations in tight-junction permeability enhance glucose absorption from the small intestine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
