Bicarbonate Secretion

Abstract: Understanding of the mechanism of colonic electrolyte transport has markedly increased over the past three decades. This article provides a brief summary of the critical features of Na, Cl, and K transport in the large intestine and how these processes may be altered in diarrhea. Less understood is the mechanism of colonic HCO3 secretion. Recent progress in the regulation of HCO3 secretion in the distal colon is summarized with emphasis on the interrelationship between Cl-dependent, short-chain fatty acid (SCF… Show more

“…These results are probably due to the dominant uptake of butyrate by SCFA/bicarbonate exchanger activity (34) and nonionic diffusion (35). Both uptake mechanisms are well described in colon although it is not clear to which proportion they contribute to colon butyrate uptake (36), because both pathways cannot be inhibited specifically.…”

“…27 Intraluminal pH has been also found to be abnormally low in a number of studies in the colon of patients with UC, 28 but the importance of this has so far been discussed predominantly in the context of antiinflammatory drug release. 28 In the pancreas, however, ductal injury reduced HCO3 secretion and enhances the risk for acute pancreatitis.…”

“…These channels co-operate with the basolaterally located transporter, NKCC1, and play major roles in the secretion of Cl - [1,3]. In addition, Cl - /HCO 3 - transporters, such as DRA, are expressed at the apical membrane of human IECs [2,3,6], where their function is critically required for the electroneutral absorption of NaCl [1,4] and the secretion of HCO 3 - [3,5,7]. Thus, the concerted function of these channels and transporters is indispensable to maintain intestinal fluid homeostasis.…”
