  • Title: Cholecystokinin decreases intestinal hexose absorption by a parallel reduction in SGLT1 abundance in the brush-border membrane.
    Author: Hirsh AJ, Cheeseman CI.
    Journal: J Biol Chem; 1998 Jun 05; 273(23):14545-9. PubMed ID: 9603969.
    Abstract:
    The dual lumenaly and vascularly perfused small intestine was used to determine the mechanism by which cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) decreases the rate of glucose absorption. With CCK-8 in the vascular perfusate the rate of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose absorption decreased, whereas the rate of D-fructose absorption was unaffected. The substrate pool size within the tissue during steady-state transport, in the presence and absence of CCK-8, was estimated by compartmental analysis of the 3-O-methyl-D-glucose washout into the vascular bed. When CCK-8 was included in the vascular perfusate, the absorptive cell pool size decreased when compared with untreated tissue. Both the steady-state hexose absorption data and the washout studies indicated that the locus of action of CCK-8 was the SGLT1 transporter located in the brush-border membrane. The SGLT1 protein abundance in isolated brush-border membranes, as quantified by Western blotting, showed a decrease that paralleled the decrease in the steady-state transport rate induced by CCK-8. These results indicate that CCK-8 diminishes the rate of intestinal hexose absorption by decreasing SGLT1 protein abundance in the brush-border membrane of the rat jejunum and therefore provides evidence for acute enteric hormonal regulation of the rate of glucose absorption across the small intestine.
