Calcium channel blockers modify jejunal uptake of d-galactose in rabbits

Abstract: Calcium channel blockers modify the intestinal uptake of lipids. This study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that two different types of calcium channel blockers influence the uptake of D-galactose, a sugar absorbed by the sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT1) in the intestinal brush border membrane. Nisoldipine (1 mg/kg/day) or verapamil (4 mg/kg/day) were given by mouth to New Zealand white rabbits for three weeks, and then the rates of uptake of varying concentrations (2-64 mM) of galactose were… Show more

“…The antiarrhythmic drug verapamil reduced the apparent Km for the (presumed) SGLT1–mediated uptake of D‐galactose by rabbit jejunum in vitro. Conversely, exposure of rabbit jejunal tissue to verapamil did not reduce D‐glucose uptake . However, verapamil was shown to improve glucose tolerance and reduce serum glucose levels in T2DM patients .…”

“…This is similar to the finding that D-galactose uptake in rabbit jejunum is modified when calcium channels are blocked. 48 However, TMB-8, an inhibitor of intracellular Ca 2+ release, does not modify the endotoxin effect. This could be because intracellular calcium liberated via inositolphosphates is not implicated or is not essential for LPS action.…”

“…In addition, all these intracellular second messengers are well-known regulators and/or modulators of intestinal ion transporters, 32,34,35 and sugars and amino acids. [36][37][38][39]48 Consequently, PKC and Ca 2+ /calmodulin could be involved in the intracellular mechanisms that mediate LPS induced L-leucine uptake reduction across the rabbit jejunum.…”

“…It has been known that intestinal absorption of glucose is influenced by intracellular Ca 2+ concentration; however, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood for the Ca 2+ regulation of glucose absorption. In the past study, Hyson and colleague observed that the kinetics of glucose uptake by SGLT1 were increased in the animals given two different types of calcium channel blockers, nisoldipine and verapamil [ 68 ]. Recently, a new model for Ca 2+ regulation of intestinal glucose absorption has been proposed.…”
