Linoleic acid absorption in the unaesthetized rat: Mechanism of transport and influence of luminal factors on absorption

Abstract: Linoleic acid intestinal absorption was studied in the unanesthetized rat. At low (21-1260 micrometer) intraluminal concentrations, absorption took place by facilitated diffusion; while at high (1.26-2.5 mM) concentrations, simple diffusion was the predominant mechanism of transport. At low concentrations (840 micrometer), the equimolar additions of oleic, linolenic, and arachidonic acids or lecithin inhibited the absorption of linoleic acid. Substitution of potassium for sodium in the buffer solution, substit… Show more

“…1) and the absence of an energy requirement suggest that at low luminal concentrations, linoleic acid is absorbed by a facilitated diffusion mechanism, which could be carrier-mediated and does not require energy. These findings are in agreement with previous reports that suggested that at low luminal concentrations (0.04-1.2 mM) linoleic acid was absorbed by a facilitated diffusion mechanism, and at high concentration (2-5mM) by simple diffusion (9,13). A similar, concentrationdependent dual mechanism of transport has previously been reported for other nutrients (14,15) and is probably shared by other long-chain unsaturated fatty acids (16).…”

“…Our data are not necessarily in conflict with those of Chow and Hollander [62] who proposed simple or facilitated diffusion of FA depending on the FA concentration because the kinetics of the flux of FA into caveolae could appear compatible with either interpretation. Further, the saturation kinetics proposed by Murota and Storch to indicate protein mediated absorption [63] could be the result of only a certain amount of FA able to be absorbed by the caveolae.…”

“…Although conflicting results have been reported, deletion of either CD36 or FATP4 alone in mouse intestine does not appear to dramatically alter fatty acid uptake (Goudriaan et al, 2002; Nauli et al, 2006; Shim et al, 2009). Studies utilizing cultured cell systems have supported a passive diffusion model by showing that the rate of fatty acid uptake is linear, protease-resistant, and temperature-independent (Chow and Hollander, 1979; Ling et al, 1989; Trotter et al, 1996). By contrast, others have pointed to a carrier-mediated model based on observations that fatty acid uptake is saturable and competitive with other fatty acids (Ho and Storch, 2001; Murota and Storch, 2005).…”
