Digestion of Carbohydrates
The major source of carbohydrate is found in plants.
•
Dietary carbohydrates mostly comes from starch -Amylose and amylopectin
•
Dietary carbohydrate principally consist of…
•
1) Polysaccharides :- Starch, glycogen & cellulose.
•
2) Disaccharides :- Sucrose and Maltose.
•
3) Monosaccharides :- glucose and fructose.
•
4) oligosaccharides; short polymer so 3-10 monosaccharides
•
Monosaccharides does not need digestion.
•
Have two important bonds in the Polysaccharides (a-1,6 and a-1,4 glycosidic bond)
•
Amylopectin; a-1,6 and a-1,4 glycosidic bond
•
Amylose; a-1,4 glycosidic bond
•
Digestion in Oral cavity
Digestion Starts in the oral cavity and continues in the GI tract all the way to the stomach
•
So oral cavity- pharynx - esophagus- stomach
•
Salivary amylase is inactiveted by gastric acid
•
Salivary a-amylase is ptyalin
•
Mainly secreted by extrinsic glands
•
Only targets the a-1,4 glycosidic bonds and breaks
•
down amylopectin and amylose
•
amylose is broken down into (maltose-disaccharides and maltotriose- oligosaccharides)
•
Amylopectin is broken down into (maltose- disaccharides, maltotriose- oligosaccharides and a-limit dextrins-
•
oligosaccharides)
Salivary amylase Is responsible for 15% of the chemical break down of carbohydrates
•
Digestion In pancreas
Acinar cells- pancreatic amylase- hydrolyses a-1,4 glycosidic bonds
•
Maltose , Matlotriose, a-limit dextrins
•
Cholecystokinin;
•
Stimulate acinar cells to produce pancreatic amylase
•
Relaxes the sphincter of oddi- ejection of the pancreatic amylase to the duodenum
•
Digestion in small Intestine
Further digestion of carbohydrate occurs in small intestine by pancreatic enzymes.
•
Enterocytes- epithelial cell found in the small intestine
•
Most of the absorption occurs in the small intestine
•
Water and electrolytes can be absorbed from the large intestine
•
Structural modifications that increase surface area in the small intestine-increase digestion and increase
•
absorption. ( circular folds, villi, microvilli)
Enterocyte; little cytoplasmic extensions, increase the surface area for chemical digestion and absorption
•
High concentration of brush border enzymes
•
Brush border enzymes (lactase, maltase, sucrase, isomaltase,)
•
The enzymes & their reactions are as follows…
•
Maltose—Maltase— Glucose + Glucose
•
Isomaltose—Isomaltase— Glucose + Glucose
•
Sucrose — Sucrase — Glucose + Fructose
•
Lactase —Lactase— Glucose + Galactose
•
Limit dextrin—Dextrinase— Glucose+ Maltose + Maltotriose
•
Digestion in Stomach
Digestion of carbohydrate temporarily stops in the stomach.
•
The action of salivary amylase stops in stomah because of high acidity of stomach.
•
No carbohydrate splitting enzymes available in gastric juice.
•
ABSORPTION OF CARBOHYDRATES
The end product of carbohydrate digestion are Glucose, Fructose galactose
•
These are readily absorbed through the intestinal mucosal cells into the blood stream.
•
Two mechanism are responsible for the absorption of these sugars…
•
1) Facilitated transport, with conc gradient
•
2) Active transport, against conc. gradient.
•
1) Facilitated transport.
This is depends on the conc. of sugar across the intestinal lumen and mucosal cells.
•
All the monosaccharide are absorbed o some extent by facilitated diffusion.
•
2) Active Transport.
The transport of glucose and Galactose across the brush boarder of mucosal cells occur by active transport.
•
It is an energy requiring process that requires transport protein and presence of sodium ions.
•
A sodium dependent glucose transporter (SGLT-1) binds both glucose and sodium at separate sites and
•
transports them into the cell.
The sodium transport down conc. gradient & glucose transported against conc. gradient.
•
This process is called cotransport or symport.
•
The energy for this reaction is provided by ATP linked to sodium pump.

Digestion and Absorption of Carbohydrates.pdf

  • 1. By; Ömer ASLANKAN Digestion of Carbohydrates The major source of carbohydrate is found in plants. • Dietary carbohydrates mostly comes from starch -Amylose and amylopectin • Dietary carbohydrate principally consist of… • 1) Polysaccharides :- Starch, glycogen & cellulose. • 2) Disaccharides :- Sucrose and Maltose. • 3) Monosaccharides :- glucose and fructose. • 4) oligosaccharides; short polymer so 3-10 monosaccharides • Monosaccharides does not need digestion. • Have two important bonds in the Polysaccharides (a-1,6 and a-1,4 glycosidic bond) • Amylopectin; a-1,6 and a-1,4 glycosidic bond • Amylose; a-1,4 glycosidic bond • Digestion in Oral cavity Digestion Starts in the oral cavity and continues in the GI tract all the way to the stomach • So oral cavity- pharynx - esophagus- stomach • Salivary amylase is inactiveted by gastric acid • Salivary a-amylase is ptyalin • Mainly secreted by extrinsic glands • Only targets the a-1,4 glycosidic bonds and breaks • down amylopectin and amylose • amylose is broken down into (maltose-disaccharides and maltotriose- oligosaccharides) • Amylopectin is broken down into (maltose- disaccharides, maltotriose- oligosaccharides and a-limit dextrins- • oligosaccharides) Salivary amylase Is responsible for 15% of the chemical break down of carbohydrates • Digestion In pancreas Acinar cells- pancreatic amylase- hydrolyses a-1,4 glycosidic bonds • Maltose , Matlotriose, a-limit dextrins • Cholecystokinin; • Stimulate acinar cells to produce pancreatic amylase • Relaxes the sphincter of oddi- ejection of the pancreatic amylase to the duodenum • Digestion in small Intestine Further digestion of carbohydrate occurs in small intestine by pancreatic enzymes. • Enterocytes- epithelial cell found in the small intestine • Most of the absorption occurs in the small intestine • Water and electrolytes can be absorbed from the large intestine • Structural modifications that increase surface area in the small intestine-increase digestion and increase • absorption. ( circular folds, villi, microvilli) Enterocyte; little cytoplasmic extensions, increase the surface area for chemical digestion and absorption • High concentration of brush border enzymes • Brush border enzymes (lactase, maltase, sucrase, isomaltase,) • The enzymes & their reactions are as follows… • Maltose—Maltase— Glucose + Glucose • Isomaltose—Isomaltase— Glucose + Glucose • Sucrose — Sucrase — Glucose + Fructose • Lactase —Lactase— Glucose + Galactose • Limit dextrin—Dextrinase— Glucose+ Maltose + Maltotriose •
  • 2. Digestion in Stomach Digestion of carbohydrate temporarily stops in the stomach. • The action of salivary amylase stops in stomah because of high acidity of stomach. • No carbohydrate splitting enzymes available in gastric juice. • ABSORPTION OF CARBOHYDRATES The end product of carbohydrate digestion are Glucose, Fructose galactose • These are readily absorbed through the intestinal mucosal cells into the blood stream. • Two mechanism are responsible for the absorption of these sugars… • 1) Facilitated transport, with conc gradient • 2) Active transport, against conc. gradient. • 1) Facilitated transport. This is depends on the conc. of sugar across the intestinal lumen and mucosal cells. • All the monosaccharide are absorbed o some extent by facilitated diffusion. • 2) Active Transport. The transport of glucose and Galactose across the brush boarder of mucosal cells occur by active transport. • It is an energy requiring process that requires transport protein and presence of sodium ions. • A sodium dependent glucose transporter (SGLT-1) binds both glucose and sodium at separate sites and • transports them into the cell. The sodium transport down conc. gradient & glucose transported against conc. gradient. • This process is called cotransport or symport. • The energy for this reaction is provided by ATP linked to sodium pump. •
