21
Q

glandular simple columnar epithelial cell whose function is to secrete gel-forming mucins, which are the major components of mucus.

A

Goblet Cells

22
Q

account for large cross-section of small intestins

A

microvilli

23
Q

cell found in the follicle-associated epithelium of the Peyer’s patch. They transport organisms and particles from the gut lumen to immune cells across the epithelial barrier, important in stimulating mucosal immunity.

24
Q

galt

A

gut associated lymphoid tissue

25
GALT = gut-associated lymphoid tissue. GI tract’s immune system.
M cells (GALT and Peyer’s patch)
26
involved in nanoparticle absorptions
m cell (galt and peyer's patch)
27
enterocyte: layer of glycoproteins that is associated (attached with the apical membrane)
glycocalyx
28
enterocyte: contain
microvilli
29
enterocyte: tight junction
thing that hold cell together
30
side where lumen is
apical
31
large intestine components
ileum and cecum
32
Length of large intestine
1.2 m
33
ph of large intesting
ph 6.5-8.0
34
Contains lots of bacterial __-
flora
35
flora can do lots of things
metabolize drugs | deliver drugs only to small intestines
36
transit time of large intestines
15-30 hours
37
tight junctions of cells controlled by
cellular signaling
38
Physical attributs of oral dosage forms that may be associated with dysphagia, odynophagia,
shape, size, density, surface area, adhesion properties, coating, position when taking the pill
39
reduced medication adherence
oval shaped pills have most complications, pill color, gel capsules are more adhesive to esophageal lining than others
40
basolateral side
blood
41
memory tag for compliance
size, color, and shape
42
RLD
reference listed drug
43
The incomplete ingestion of pharmaceutical dosage form contributes to
esophageal adhesion and potential injury
44
Risk factor for esophageal adhesion formulation
gelatin capsules slower et than tablets | shape, size, density, surface area, and adhesion properties of the dosage form
45
least potential to adhere
sugar coated tablets
46
clinical risk factor for esophageal adhesion
posture of the patient and the amount of fluid used to swallow the dosage form if tablets are taken without water ingestion of dosage form at bedtime while lying down sali
47
greatest tendency to adhere
large oval tablets take with little or no water
48
Large intestine drug deliver
higher ph time/gi transit presence of anaerobic bacteria
49
to get drug to large intestine
coat the polymer so it takes longer to dissolve and dissolves at higher PH or possesses azo, glycosidic or dlucuronic linages
50
Factors that affect gastric emptying
disease states (acid reflux), liquid vs. solid states, fasting vs. fed states, (volume density and caloric load) presences of other drugs/effects of previously absorbed drugs
