    Author: Mizuma T, Awazu S.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1998 Jan 08; 1379(1):1-6. PubMed ID: 9468325.
    Abstract:
    Intestinal absorption of beta-disaccharide (cellobiose, maltose and lactose) conjugates of p-nitrophenol (p-nitrophenyl beta-disaccharide) were examined in terms of the hydrolysis of disaccharide conjugate to monosaccharide conjugate and the transport of monosaccharide conjugate by Na+/glucose transport carrier (SGLT1). beta-Cellobioside, beta-maltoside and beta-lactoside of p-nitrophenol (p-NP) were hydrolyzed to p-nitrophenyl beta-glucoside (p-NPbeta glc) on the mucosal side, and p-NPbeta glc appeared on the serosal side. Although p-NP beta-disaccharide, p-NP and p-NP glucuronide also appeared on the serosal side, their amounts were much lower than that of p-NPbeta glc. The amount of p-NPbeta glc transported to the serosal side was decreased in the presence of phloridzin (transport inhibitor of SGLT1) and in the absence of Na+ (a cosubstrate of SGLT1), indicating that p-NPbeta glc was formed from p-NP beta-disaccharide on the mucosal side and transported to the serosal side by SGLT1. Furthermore, the absorption clearance of p-NPbeta glc, which was formed from p-NP beta-cellobioside and p-NP beta-lactoside by lactase-phloridzin hydrolase (LPH), was much higher than that of p-NPbeta glc itself, although the absorption clearance of p-NPbeta glc, which was formed from p-NP beta-maltoside by maltase was similar to that of p-NPbeta glc itself. These results indicated that p-NPbeta glc was transported by the vectorial cooperation of SGLT1 with LPH from mucosal p-NP beta-cellobioside or p-NP beta-lactoside.
