This document provides information about the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates and their clinical significance. It discusses how carbohydrates are digested by amylases in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine. Disaccharides are further broken down by disaccharidases in the small intestine. The monosaccharides glucose, fructose, and galactose are then absorbed into the bloodstream, primarily through sodium-dependent and sodium-independent glucose transporters. Clinical conditions like lactose intolerance result from deficiencies in disaccharidases like lactase. Overall, the document outlines the multi-step process of carbohydrate digestion and absorption and its implications for health.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

in small
intestine
7. Digestion in the Mouth
Digestion of Carbohydrate starts in the
mouth, upon contact with saliva during mastication.
Saliva contains a carbohydrate splitting enzyme called
salivary amylase , also known as ptylin.
8. Action of ptylin (salivary
amylase)
• Location: mouth
• It is α-amylase and requires Cl− ion for
activation with an optimum pH of 6.7 (Range
6.6 to 6.8).
• The enzyme hydrolyses α-1→ 4 glycosidic
linkages deep inside polysaccharide
molecules.
• However, ptylin action stops in the stomach
when the pH falls to 3.0.
9. Starch, Glycogen and dextrins
(Large polysaccharide molecules)
α- Amylase
Glucose,Maltose and Maltotriose.
(Smaller molecules)
10. Drawback
• Shorter duration of food in mouth.
• Thus it is incomplete digestion of starch or
glycogen in the mouth
11. Digestion in the Stomach
• There is no enzyme to break the glycosidic
bonds in gastric juice.
• However, HCl present in the stomach causes
hydrolysis of sucrose to fructose and glucose.
HCl
Sucrose Fructose + Glucose
12. Digestion in Duodenum
• Food bolus reaches the duodenum from the
stomach where it meets the pancreatic juice.
• Pancreatic juice contains a carbohydrate
splitting enzyme,
pancreatic amylase
(amylopsin) similar
to salivary amylase.
13. Action of pancreatic amylase
• It is an α- Amylase
• Optimum pH=7.1
• Like ptylin, it requires Cl− ion for its activity.
• It hydrolyses α-1→ 4 glycosidic linkages
situated well inside polysaccharide molecules.
• Note: Pancreatic amylase, an isoenzyme of salivary
amylase, differs only in the optimum pH of action. Both
the enzymes require Chloride ions for their actions (Ion
activated enzymes).
14. Reaction catalyzed by pancreatic amylase

Dextrins and
oligosaccharides
15. Digestion in Small Intestine
Note:
• Main digestion takes place in the small
intestine by pancreatic amylase
• Digestion is completed by pancreatic amylase
because food stays for a longer time in the
intestine.
16. What are Disaccharidases?
• They are present in the brush border epithelium of
intestinal mucosal cells where the resultant
monosaccharides and others arising from the diet
are absorbed.
• The different disaccharidases are :
1) Maltase,
2) Sucrase-Isomaltase (a bifunctional enzyme
catalyzing hydrolysis of sucrose and isomaltose)
3) Lactase
18. Clinical significance of Digestion
• Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest
lactose due to the deficiency of Lactase
enzyme.
• Causes
Congenital Acquired during lifetime
Primary Secondary
19. Congenital Lactose intolerance
• It is a congenital disorder
• There is complete absence or deficiency of
lactase enzyme.
• The child develops intolerance to lactose
immediately after birth.
• It is diagnosed in early infancy.
• Milk feed precipitates symptoms.
21. Primary Lactase deficiency
• Primary lactase deficiency develops over time
• There is no congenital absence of lactase but
the deficiency is precipitated during adulthood.
• The gene for lactose is normally expressed upto
RNA level but it is not translated to form
enzyme.
• It is very common in Asian population.
• There is intolerance to milk + dairy products.
23. Secondary lactase deficiency
• It may develop in a person with a healthy small intestine during
episodes of acute illness.
• This occurs because of mucosal damage or from medications
resulting from certain gastrointestinal diseases, including
exposure to intestinal parasites such as Giardia lamblia.
• In such cases the production of lactase may be permanently
disrupted.
• A very common cause of temporary lactose intolerance is
gastroenteritis, particularly when the gastroenteritis is caused
by rotavirus.
• Another form of temporary lactose intolerance is lactose
overload in infants. Secondary lactase deficiency also results
from injury to the small intestine that occurs with celiac
disease, Crohn’s disease, or chemotherapy.
• This type of lactase deficiency can occur at any age but is more
common in infancy.
25. Clinical manifestations
• In the form of abdominal
cramps, distensions, diarrhea, constipation, flatulenc
e upon ingestion of milk or dairy products
Biochemical basis
• Undigested lactose in
intestinal lumen is
acted upon by bacteria
and is converted to
CO2 , H2 , 2 carbon
compounds and 3 carbon
compounds or it may
remain undigested.
26. • CO2 and H2 causes Distensions and flatulence
• Lactose + 2C + 3C are osmotically active.
• They withdraw H2O from intestinal mucosal
cell and cause osmotic diarrhea or
constipation because of undigested bulk.
Abdominal distension Flatulence
27. Diagnosis
• Two tests are commonly
used: -
• Hydrogen Breath Test
• The person drinks a lactose-
loaded beverage and then
the breath is analyzed at
regular intervals to measure
the amount of hydrogen.
Normally, very little
hydrogen is detectable in
the breath, but undigested
lactose produces high levels
of hydrogen. The test takes
about 2 to 3 hours.
28. • Stool Acidity Test
• The stool acidity test is used for
infants and young children to
measure the amount of acid in
the stool. Undigested lactose
creates lactic acid and other
short chain fatty acids that can be
detected in a stool sample.
Glucose may also be present in
the stool as a result of undigested
lactose.
• Besides these tests, urine shows-
positive test with Benedict’s
test, since lactose is a reducing
sugar and a small amount of
lactose is absorbed in the
intestinal cell by pinocytosis and
is rapidly eliminated through
kidneys in to urine.(Lactosuria)
• Mucosal biopsy confirms the
diagnosis.
29. Management of lactose intolerance
• Avoidance of dairy products.
• Although the body’s ability to produce lactase
cannot be changed, the symptoms of lactose
intolerance can be managed with dietary changes.
• Most people with lactose intolerance can tolerate
some amount of lactose in their diet. Gradually
introducing small amounts of milk or milk products
may help some people adapt to them with fewer
symptoms.
• Partly digested dairy products can also be given.
30. • Lactose-free, lactose-reduced milk,
Soy milk and other products may be
recommended.
• Lactase enzyme drops or tablets(Yeast tablets)
can also be consumed.
• Getting enough calcium is important for people
with lactose intolerance when the intake of milk
and milk products is limited.
• A balanced diet that provides an adequate
amount of nutrients—including calcium
and vitamin D—and minimizes discomfort is to
be planned for the patients of lactose
intolerance.
31. Sucrase-Isomaltase deficiency
• These 2 enzymes are synthesized on a single polypeptide
chain,hence , their deficiencies coexist.
• Signs and symptoms
• Same as that of lactose intolerance.
• Urine does not give +ve test with Benedict’s test because of
sucrose(Non reducing sugar).
• History confirms the diagnosis.
• Most confirmatory test is mucosal
biopsy.

Glucose transporters
Na+
2 types Na+ independent

Also called Also called
SGLT GLUT
35. Na+ dependent transporter
• Type of co-transport
• 2 binding sites on the transporter, one for Na+ and other
for glucose.
• Na + binding is important because after Na +
binding, conformational changes occurs so that glucose
can bind.
• Na + is transported across cell membrane, down the
concentration gradient and glucose goes against a
concentration gradient.
• ATP is spent at the level of Na-K ATPase pump to expel
Na out.
• Both glucose and galactose are absorbed by a sodium-
dependent process.
• They are carried by the same transport protein (SGLT
36. Figure- Showing the co transport of Glucose, mediated by SGLT-
1/2. SGLT-1 are present on the intestinal cells while SGLT-2
are present on the proximal renal tubular cells.
37. 3 reasons for expulsion of sodium
1) Na + is osmotically active, causes osmotic
flow to cells, leading to osmolysis.
2) Na + concentration has to be kept minimal to
maintain the downward gradient.
3) Na + is inhibitory to many enzyme actions.

39. Clinical significance
• In deficiency of SGLT- 1, glucose is left
unabsorbed and is excreted in feces.
Galactose is also malabsorbed.
• In deficiency of SGLT- 2, the filtered glucose is
not reabsorbed back, it is lost in urine, causing
glycosuria.
40. • Solvent drag is not the main mechanism of
glucose absorption but is important after a
carbohydrate rich diet.
• Absorption of galactose is faster than glucose.
• In kidney, reabsorption of filtered glucose
takes place by a similar mechanism, i.e, it is
also a co-transport with Na. The transporter is
SGLT- 2.
• In intestine, it is SGLT- 1.
41. Na+ independent transporters
• Used for facilitated transport.
• These transporters are numbered from 1 to
14 GLUT.
• In the intestine, GLUT 2 are present towards
the serosal surface of intestinal epithelial
cells and GLUT 5 are present towards the
luminal surface.

diffusion which is a very slow process.
45. Factors affecting rate of absorption of
Monosaccharides
• The absorption is faster through intact mucosa.
The absorption is decreased if there is some
inflammation or injury to the mucosa.
• Thyroid hormones ↑ the rate of absorption of
glucose.
• Mineralocorticoid,i.e Aldosterone ↑ the rate of
absorption.
46. • Vitamin B6,B12, pantothenic acid, folic acid are
required for absorption of glucose.
• With advancing age, rate of absorption declines.
• Note: Insulin has no role in the absorption of
monosaccharide like glucose.
47. Uptake of glucose in peripheral cells
• Mechanism: facilitated diffusion.
• There are 7 important glucose transporter for
uptake of glucose into special cells.
• They have been numbered from 1 to 7 (GLUT
1 to GLUT 7).
• They are biologically important.
48. Tissue specific Tissue distribution Functions Clinical significance
