Disorders Associated with Malabsorption of Iron: A Critical Review

Perspectives – Classroom Discussion You may pose these questions to your students when discussing the perspectives section of this chapter.

•

•

Gastric bypass has become more prevalent as a treatment for obesity. However, there are many nutritional risks with the lasting effects of the procedure. What are some of these long-term effects that should be considered when making the decision to proceed or not?

• Macronutrient and micronutrient deficiencies, as well as reduction/loss of intrinsic factor.

Discuss the pH levels of the gastrointestinal tract and the relevance of the pH being at that level for that organ.

• Most of the gastrointestinal tract is slightly alkaline, a pH around 7.8. This is to protect the organs from acidic conditions, as well as enzyme mechanisms. The stomach is at a pH of around 2.0–3.0 to aid in digestion and enzyme mechanisms but is well protected by mucus.

Chapter Outline I. Introduction 1. The major source of energy fuel in the average human diet is carbohydrate II. Overview of Structural Features 1. Carbohydrates are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones, or substances that produce these compounds when hydrolyzed, consisting of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms in a CH2O ratio 2. Key Terms a. Monosaccharides – the simplest form of carbohydrates, which cannot be reduced in size to smaller carbohydrate units b. Disaccharides – sugars formed by combining two monosaccharides through a glycosidic bond between the hydroxyl group of one monosaccharide and the hydroxyl group of another c. Oligosaccharides – short chains of monosaccharide units joined by covalent bonds d. Polysaccharides – long chains of monosaccharide units that may number from several to hundreds or thousands 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 3.1 – classification of carbohydrates III. Simple Carbohydrates A. Monosaccharides 1. Contain three to seven carbon atoms and cannot be further broken down under mild hydrolytic conditions © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

2. Key Terms a. Chiral carbon – a carbon atom with four different atoms or groups covalently attached to it b. Stereoisomers – a group of compounds that have the same structure but different configurations c. Isomers – one of two or more different chemical compounds that have the same molecular formula d. Anomeric carbon – the carbon that comprises the carbonyl function that is capable of forming a ring structure with the OH group on the highestnumbered chiral carbon of a monosaccharide 3. Ring structures – monosaccharaides do not exist in an open-chain form; instead, they form a cyclic ring structure through a reaction between the carbonyl group and a hydroxyl group 4. Haworth models – a more convenient and accurate way to represent the structures of the cyclized monosaccharides 5. Pentoses – furnish little dietary energy but are readily synthesized in the cell from hexose precursors 6. Amino and acid derivatives – amino sugars occur in oligosaccharides and polysaccharides; the amino group replaces the hydroxide group on the second carbon 7. Reducing sugars – monosaccharides that are cyclized into hemiacetals or hemiketals; capable of reducing other substances 8. Figures and Tables a. Figure 3.2 – structural formulas of the D and L configurations of glyceraldehyde b. Figure 3.3 – structural (open-chain) models of the D and L forms of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose c. Table 3.1 – various structural representations among the hexoses: glucose, galactose, and fructose B. Disaccharides 1. Contain two monosaccharide units attached to one another through acetal bonds. Maltose, lactose, sucrose, and trehalose are common disaccharides 2. Maltose – formed primarily from the partial hydrolysis of starch 3. Lactose – found naturally only in milk and milk products 4. Sucrose – most commonly used natural sweetener 5. Trehalose – found naturally in fungi and other foods of the plant kingdom 6. Figures and Tables a. Figure 3.5 – common disaccharides IV.

Digestion 1. Carbohydrates are hydrolyzed to monosaccharides for absorption 2. Key Terms a. Glycosidases – digestive enzymes that hydrolyze polysaccharides to their constituent monosaccharide units b. Carbohydrases – same as glycosidases B. Digestion of Polysaccharides 1. Digestion starts in the mouth with the key enzyme salivary α-amylase, a glycosidase that specifically hydrolyzes α (1-4) glycosidic linkages 2. The stomach does not digest carbohydrates and starches are further digested by pancreatic α-amylase in the small intestine 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 3.7 – starch digestion C. Digestion of Disaccharides 1. Virtually no digestion of disaccharides or small oligosaccharides occurs in the mouth, stomach, or lumen of the small intestine. Digestion mostly happens within the microvilli in the upper small intestine via disaccharidases activity VI. Absorption, Transport, and Distribution A. Intestinal Absorption of Glucose and Galactose 1. After carbohydrate digestion, glucose and galactose are absorbed into the enterocyte by active transport and facilitated transport 2. Active transport – mechanism for glucose and galactose absorption into enterocytes requires energy as ATP and SGLT1 transporter protein 3. Facilitated transport – absorption of glucose into the enterocyte using SGLT1 without ATP 4. Figures and Tables B. Figure 3.8 – transport of monosaccharides into enterocytes using active transport and facilitated transport 1. Primary mechanism for fructose transport into the enterocyte is via facilitative transporter GLUT5 C. Post-Absorption Facilitated Transport 1. Following the intestinal absorption of glucose, galactose, and fructose, they enter the hepatic portal vein, where they are carried directly to the liver

3. Fatty acid nomenclature – two systems of notation developed a. delta (∆) system of notation denotes the chain length of the fatty acids and the number and position of any double bonds present b. notation locates the position of double bonds on carbon atoms counted from the methyl end of the hydrocarbon chain 4. Essential fatty acids – two unsaturated fatty acids cannot be synthesized in the body and must come from the diet. These are linoleic acid and αlinolenic acid 5. N-6 versus n-3 fatty acids – intake of n-3 fatty acids is quite low compared to the overwhelmed intake of n-6 fatty acids 6. Figures and Tables a. Figure 5.1 – structures of selected fatty acids b.

1. Phospholipids are hydrolyzed by a specific esterase, phospholipase A2, made and secreted by the pancreas C. Cholesterol Ester Digestion 1. Some of the cholesterol present in food is esterified with a fatty acid.

Cholesterol esters cannot be absorbed and therefore must be hydrolyzed to free cholesterol and free fatty acid to be incorporated into micelles for delivery to intestinal cells 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 5.12 – summary of digestion and absorption of dietary lipids V. Absorption A. Fatty Acid, Monoacylglycerol, and Lysophospholipid Absorption 1. Two general mechanisms of absorption of fatty acids, monoacylglycerols, and lysophospholipids have been suggested; one involves a proteinindependent diffusion model and another a protein-dependent model B. Cholesterol Absorption 1. Cholesterol that enters the small intestine comes from two sources: the diet and bile 2. Key Terms a. Chylomicrons – a type of lipoprotein that transports lipids and lipidsoluble vitamins from the intestine into the lymph and then the blood for use by body cells C. Lipid Release into Circulation 1.

4. Endogenous lipid transport – hepatic triacylglycerols are packaged in VLDL and delivered to peripheral tissues in a manner similar to chylomicrons 5. Reverse cholesterol transport – ability of circulating HDL to pick up excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues and deliver it to the liver for excretion from the body via bile, as either free cholesterol or bile acids 6. Figures and Tables a. Figure 5.15 – exogenous lipid transport b. Figure 5.16 – lipid metabolism in the adipose cell following a meal c. Figure 5.17 – metabolism in the liver following a fatty meal d.

Figure 5.20 – reverse cholesterol transport VII. Lipids, Lipoproteins, and Cardiovascular Disease Risk A. Cholesterol 1. Cholesterol is a major component to atherogenic fatty plaque, and many studies have linked CVD risk to chronically elevated serum cholesterol levels B. Saturated and Unsaturated Fatty Acids 1. Findings from older research studies led to the conclusions that saturated fatty acids are hypercholesterolemic, polyunsaturated fatty acids are hypocholesterolemic, and monounsaturated fatty acids are neutral C. Trans Fatty Acids 1. Dietary trans fatty acids may be more unfavorable than saturated fatty acids because they raise LDL-C and lower HDL-C. They also correlate more strongly with cardiovascular disease mortality than saturated fatty acids D. Lipoprotein(a) 1. Composed of a low-density lipoprotein particle containing apoB-100 and a covalently linked glycoprotein called apolipoprotein E. Apolipoprotein E 1. Apolipoprotein E has multiple roles in lipid metabolism, neurobiology, and cellular function VIII. Integrated Metabolism in Tissues A. Catabolism of Triacylglycerols and Fatty Acids 1. Triacylglycerols stored in adipose tissue are mobilized by lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis and released into circulation as free fatty acids when needed 2. Mitochondrial transfer of acyl–CoA-activated fatty acid is joined covalently to carnitine at the cytosolic side of the outer mitochondrial membrane by the transferase enzyme carnitine acyltransferase I, the carnitine: acylcarnitine transferase then moves acyl-carnitine across the inner membrane. Acyl-carnitine is then released to form acyl-CoA and carnitine with the aid of carnitine acyltransferase II 3. β-oxidation of fatty acids – this occurs through a cyclic degradative pathway by which two-carbon units in the form of acetyl-CoA are cleaved, one acetyl-CoA at a time from the carboxyl end 4. Energy yield in fatty acid oxidation – net yield of ATPs is 106 5. Figures and Tables © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Signal-lipidomics – a branch of the emerging field of lipidomics, which studies the pathways and networks of cellular lipids. These studies involves polyunsaturated fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid 3. Essential fatty acids – linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid are essential fatty acids and must be obtained from the diet 4. Eicosanoids: fatty acid derivatives of physiological significance – when eicosanoids are synthesized, the polyunsaturated fatty acid precursors are mobilized from the phospholipids or triacylglycerols by phospholipase A2 5. Opposing effects of n-6 and n-3 fatty acid-derived eicosanoids – most arachidonic acid-derived messengers are pro-inflammatory or show other disease-propagating effects, whereas n-3 derivatives oppose these effects 6. Impact of diet on fatty acid synthesis – following a carbohydrate-rich meal, de novo fatty acid synthesis increases mainly in the liver and in many other tissues 7. Figures and Tables a.

Figure 5.31 – a schematic summary of the synthesis of triacylglycerols and lecithin showing that precursors are shared E. Synthesis, Catabolism, and Whole-Body Balance of Cholesterol 1. Cholesterol is not an energy-containing nutrient and is not required in the diet since it can be synthesized 2. In mammals, no degradative enzymes exist, so cholesterol catabolism depends on its conversion to other molecules and its elimination from the body through biliary excretion 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 5.32 – an overview of the pathway of cholesterol biosynthesis in the hepatocyte indicating the negative regulatory effect of cholesterol on the HMG-CoA reductase reaction IX. Regulation of Lipid Metabolism A. Fatty Acids 1. Linked to carbohydrate status, synthesis increases when adequate carbohydrates are consumed, whereas oxidation increases in carbohydrate deficit B. Cholesterol 1. The liver is the central organ responsible for maintaining cholesterol homeostasis X. Brown Fat Thermogenesis A. Brown adipose tissue is metabolically active, and greater abundance in the neck area of adults is associated with lower adiposity; contributes to increasing energy expenditure and insulin sensitivity B. Key Terms 1. Thermogenesis – production of heat within the body C. Figures and Tables 1.

1. The enzyme catalase is located in peroxisomes, and in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, is capable of oxidizing ethanol to acetaldehyde D. Alcoholism: Biochemical and Metabolic Alterations 1. Caused by an excessive consumption of ethanol with consequences of fatty liver, hepatic disease, lactic academia, and metabolic tolerance 2. Acetaldehyde toxicity – acetaldehyde is a product of ethanol oxidation, which is believed to have direct adverse effects on the metabolic system 3. High NADH:NAD+ ratio – oxidation of ethanol increases the concentration of NADH at the expense of NAD+ 4. Substrate competition – deficiency of vitamin A is usually seen with excessive alcohol metabolism 5. Induced metabolic tolerance – ethanol can induce enzymes of the MEOS, causing an increased rate of metabolism of substrates oxidized by this system 6. Figures and Tables a. Figure 5.35 – reduction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol-3-P, producing NAD+ from NADH b. Figure 5.36 – reversible reaction of glutamate and NAD+ forming αketoglutarate, NADH, and ammonia, catalyzed by glutamate dehydrogenase E. Alcohol in Moderation: The Brighter Side 1.

Perspectives – Classroom Discussion You may pose these questions to your students when discussing the perspectives section of this chapter.

• You are running a 10K next weekend. What fuel sources will be used, when, and what does it depend on?

• After 30 minutes, energy is derived from the plasma glucose, plasma-free fatty acid, muscle triacylglycerol, and muscle glycogen.

3. RQ and substrate oxidation – an RQ equal to 1.0 suggests that carbohydrate is being oxidized because the amount of oxygen required for the combustion of glucose equals the amount of carbon dioxide produced 4. RQ and energy expenditure – once the RQ has been calculated, the calculation of energy expenditure is performed using the caloric value of oxygen at different RQ values 5. Figures and Tables a. Figure 8.1 – a portable device to measure oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production b. Figure 8.2 – a metabolic cart measures oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide exhaled c.

It binds to receptors in the hypothalamus and downregulates mRNA expression b. Pancreatic polypeptide – synthesized in the pancreas, secreted in response to food intake, and the mechanism of action is not certain c. Glucagon – like peptide, it occurs in the intestine in proportion to caloric intake; release is delayed in obese individuals; reduces gastric emptying and intestinal motility d. Peptide YY – produced in the small and large intestines; counters the effects of CCK by inhibiting intestinal motility and secretion of digestive juices 7. Figures and Tables B.

Generally defined as the inability of target tissues to respond to insulin, causing elevated blood glucose C. Weight Loss Methods 1. Methods could be caloric restriction, increased exercise. Overall requirement to losing body fat requires a negative energy balance over an extended period of time VIII.

Summary 1. Individuals should try to maintain a health energy balance, consuming the amount of energy equal to the amount of energy expenditure in the body 2. Total energy expenditure includes basal metabolic rate, physical activity, and the thermic effect of food 3. Consuming more than needed puts a person at positive energy balance, resulting in body fat accumulation that increases the chances of disease and mortality

During pregnancy and lactation, recommendations for vitamin C increase to 100 mg and 120 mg, respectively G. Deficiency: Scurvy 1. Scurvy is typically manifested when the total body vitamin C pool falls below about 300 mg and plasma vitamin C concentrations drop to less than about 0.2 mg/dL 2. Key Terms a. Petechiae – skin discolorations caused by ruptured small blood vessels b. Hypochondriasis – abnormal anxiety about one’s own health H. Toxicity 1. Daily intakes up to 2 g of vitamin C are routinely consumed without adverse effects. Most common side effect is gastrointestinal problems characterized by abdominal pain and osmotic diarrhea 2. Key Terms a. Hemochromatosis – an inherited disorder characterized by excessive iron absorption and iron overload in the body b. Thalassemia – a hereditary form of anemia associated with defective synthesis of hemoglobin c. Sideroblastic anemia – an inherited disorder that affects red blood cell production and function I.

Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.7 – structure of thiamin A. Sources 1. Meats are the major source 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 9.5 – thiamin content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Thiamin exists in a few forms in plant foods. In animal products, about 95% of thiamin is phosphorylated as primary TDP and about 5% exists as thiamin monophosphate and thiamin triphosphate. Absorption of free thiamin occurs via diffusion throughout the small intestine and by © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

transporter found mainly in the duodenum and jejunum. Thiamin is released from intestinal cells into the blood typically within 1–2 hours for distribution to tissues C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Thiamin is involved in essential coenzyme and noncoenzyme roles including: energy production and nutrient metabolism and nervous system functions 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.8 – various vitamin cofactors and their action sites in energy metabolism b. Figure 9.9 – oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex c. Figure 9.10 – first steps in the decarboxylation of pyruvate by thiamin diphosphate D. Metabolism and Excretion 1.

Thiamin recommendations with pregnancy and lactation increase to 1.4 mg/day and 1.5 mg/day, respectively F. Deficiency: Beriberi 1. Deficiency impacts energy production as well as other body processes secondary to reductions in the production of various intermediates normally generated during nutrient metabolism 2. Key Terms a. Ophthalmoplegia – paralysis of the ocular muscles b. Nystagmus – constant, involuntary movement of the eyeball G. Toxicity 1. No Tolerable Upper Intake Level has been established and no side effects have been reported from oral intakes up to about 500 mg daily H. Assessment of the Nutriture 1. Thiamin status can be assessed by measuring thiamin and/or TDP in the blood or urine and by measuring erythrocyte transketolase activity in hemolyzed whole blood IV. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) 1. Discovered in 1917 and the structure determined in 1933 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.11 – structures of riboflavin and its coenzyme forms A. Sources 1.

1. Riboflavin found in foods attached noncovalently to proteins must be released from the protein prior to absorption. This process is accomplished by the actions of hydrochloric acids secreted within the stomach and proteases secreted by the stomach, pancreas, and small intestine. FAD pyrophosphatase converts FAD to FMN. FMN in turn is converted to free riboflavin by FMN phosphatase. Free riboflavin is absorbed across the intestinal brush border membrane by an energy-dependent riboflavin vitamin transport 3. Another riboflavin transporter, RFVT1, carries riboflavin across the basolateral membrane of intestinal cells C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. FMN and FAD function as coenzymes for a variety of oxidative enzymes and remain bound to the enzymes during the oxidation-reduction reactions.

Flavoprotein have roles in nutrient metabolism and energy production and riboflavin has selected pharmacological uses 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.12 – oxidation and reduction of isoalloxazine ring D. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Riboflavin and its metabolites are excreted primarily in the urine. The amount excreted is typically at least 120 µg/day or 80 µg/g creatinine E. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Riboflavin for adult men is 1.3 mg/day and for adult women is 1.1 mg/day.

Pregnancy and lactation increase the recommended daily intake to 1.4 mg/day and 1.6 mg/day, respectively F. Deficiency: Ariboflavinosis 1. Deficiency of riboflavin rarely occurs in isolation and is usually accompanied by other nutrient deficiencies. Some clinical signs after 3–4 months of inadequate intake include painful lesions or vertical fissures on the outside of the lips, inflammation of the tongue, and red or bloody swollen oral cavity G. Toxicity 1. No Tolerable Upper Intake Level has been established and doses of up to 400 mg have been consumed in those with migraines without side effects H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Glutathione reductase activity measurement, FMN-dependent enzyme activity measurement, pyridoxamine phosphate oxidase measurement, and vitamin B6 coenzyme forms may all be used as biomarkers of riboflavin status. Urinary riboflavin excretion is also used to assess status V. Niacin (Vitamin B3) 1. Discovered through the condition pellagra. Isolated in 1937 2. Key Terms a. Pellagra – a condition that results from niacin deficiency 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.13 – structures of nicotinic acid and nicotinamide A. Sources 1. Found in several food groups, with the best being fish and meats © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

2. Figures and Tables a. Table 9.7 – niacin content of selected foods b. Figure 9.14 – structures of NAD and NADP c. Figure 9.15 – NAD+ and NADP+ synthesis from the amino acid tryptophan B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Digestion of NAD and NADP is needed for niacin’s absorption. A pyrophosphatase is required for phosphate hydrolysis from NADP. NADP is then hydrolyzed by glycohydrolase to release free nicotinamide.

Nicotinamide and nicotinic acid are absorbed primarily in the small intestine by sodium-dependent, carrier-mediated diffusion. Within the colon, nicotinic acid absorption occurs by a sodium-independent, highaffinity carrier C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Over 200 enzymes, primarily dehydrogenases, require the coenzymes NAD and NADP 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.16 – oxidation and reduction of the nicotinamide moiety; the role of NAD is dehydrogenation reactions D. Metabolism and Excretion 1. NAD and NADP undergo degradation in cells by glycohydrolase to form ADP-ribose and nicotinamide. The released nicotinamide is then methylated and oxidized in the liver into a variety of products that are excreted in the urine E. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Niacin for adult men is 16 mg of niacin equivalents and for adult women it is 14 mg of niacin equivalents per day. In pregnancy and lactation, it increases to 18 mg and 17 mg of niacin equivalents, respectively F. Deficiency: Pellagra 1. The four main signs are dermatitis, dementia, diarrhea, and death G. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Limit Level for adults for niacin from supplements and from fortified foods has been set at 35 mg/day H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Most methods involve measurement of one or more urinary metabolites of the vitamin VI. Pantothenic Acid 1. Discovered in 1954, although it was isolated in about 1931 with its structure determined in 1939 A. Sources 1. Found widely distributed in foods 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 9.8 – pantothenic acid content of selected foods b. Figure 9.17 – synthesis of coenzyme A from pantothenic acid B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage

1. About 85% of the pantothenic acid in food is bound as a component of coenzyme A. During digestion in the small intestine, CoA is hydrolyzed by pyrophosphatase to 4′-phosphopantetheine, which is then dephosphorylated by phosphatase to pantetheine, which is converted to pantothenic acid by pantotheinase. Absorption occurs principally in the jejunum by passive diffusion. Pantothenic acid from the intestinal cells enter the portal blood for transport to the liver and other tissues 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.18 – structures of coenzyme A C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Pantothenic acid is needed by cells for the synthesis of CoA and the 4′phosphopantetheine moiety; upon donation from CoA, is required for the activity of the acyl carrier protein, a component of the fatty acid synthase complex D. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Pantothenic acid is excreted intact primarily in the urine E. Adequate Intake 1. Pantothenic acid recommended daily intake is 5 mg for adults, and 6 mg/day during pregnancy and 7 mg/day during lactation F. Deficiency: Burning Foot Syndrome 1. Syndrome is characterized by a sensation of burning in the feet and neuritis. Usually in conjunction with multiple nutrient deficiencies G. Toxicity 1. Intakes of about 10 g of pantothenic acid as calcium pantothenate daily for up to 6 weeks have not caused problems; however, higher intakes of 15–20 g have been associated with mild intestinal distress H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Urinary pantothenic acid excretion is considered to be a better indicator compared to blood VII. Biotin 1. Discovered in 1931 and the structure was discovered in 1941 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.19 – structure of biotin A. Sources 1. Biotin is found widely distributed in foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Protein – bound biotin requires digestion by enzymes prior to absorption.

Proteolysis by pepsin and intestinal proteases yields free biotin and/or biocytin. Biotin absorption occurs by both passive diffusion and carriermediated transport. Transport of biotin across the basolateral membrane of the enterocyte for entrance into the blood is carrier mediated 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.20 – structure of biocytin C.

Figure 9.24 – role of biotin in the oxidation of propionyl-CoA d. Figure 9.25 – role of biotin in leucine catabolism D. Metabolism and excretion 1. Catabolism of the biotin holocarboxylases by proteases ultimately yields biocytin 2. Biocytin is then degraded by biotinidase to lysine and free biotin 3. Biotin is mainly excreted in the urine with some having been synthesized by intestinal bacteria 4. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.26 – selected metabolites from biotin degradation E. Adequate Intake 1. Biotin recommendations for adults in 30 µg per day and increases to 3 µg per day during lactation F. Deficiency 1. Deficiency has resulted from excessive consumption of raw egg whites, although rare. Some neurological symptoms associated with biotin deficiency include lethargy, paresthesia in extremities, hypotonia, depression, and hallucinations G. Toxicity 1. Toxicity from oral biotin has not been reported and no Tolerable Upper Intake Level has been established H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Biotin evaluation may be done through the blood and urine VIII. Folate 1. Folate was discovered in 1941 and its chemical synthesis in a lab was reported in 1945 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.27 – structures of folic acid, folate, and tetrahydrofolate and its derivatives A. Sources 1.

1. Folic acid in fortified foods and supplements does not need to undergo digestion. Folate in foods is found in polyglutamate forms and needs to be digested to monoglutamate forms in order to be absorbed. The main carrier for transporting folate into intestinal cells is the proton-coupled folate transporter. Folic acid may be absorbed when present in high concentrations in a more acidic environment by passive diffusion. Uptake of folate into the liver and other tissues is carrier mediated and most folate is stored in the liver C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. THF derivatives are found in the mitochondria, cytosol, and nucleus, and serve as donors of single- or one-carbon groups in a variety of reactions.

These reactions involve metabolism of several nutrients including choline and some amino acids, production of purines and pyrimidines, and DNA synthesis and repair 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.28 – interconversions of coenzyme forms of tetrahydrofolate b. Table 9.11 – forms of folate and their metabolic roles in the body c. Figure 9.29 – role of folate in histidine catabolism d.

Folate recommendation for adults is 400 µg per day of dietary folate equivalents; this increases to 600 µg per day during pregnancy and 500 µg per day during lactation G. Deficiency: Megaloblastic Macrocytic Anemia 1. Folate deficiency causes a release of red blood cells into circulation that are fewer than normal in number as well as large and immature, resulting in megaloblastic macrocytic anemia 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.31 – genesis and maturation of the red blood cells; red blood cells characteristic of microcytic and megaloblastic anemia H. Toxicity 1. A Tolerable Upper Intake Level for adults of 1,000 µg for synthetic folic acid in supplements or from fortified foods. Side effects have been documented with folate intakes of 15 mg I. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Folate is often assessed by measuring folate concentrations in the plasma, serum, or red blood cells IX. Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) 1. Isolated in 1948 2.

a. Figure 9.32 – structure of vitamin B12 A. Sources 1. Vitamin B12 sources are primarily from animal products 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 9.12 – vitamin B12 content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Ingested cobalamins must first be released from the food proteins to which they are bound. Pepsin and hydrochloric acid in the stomach digest proteins. Vitamin B12 ingested through foods, supplements, and fortified foods is not bound to proteins and doesn’t require initial hydrolysis. In the stomach, the now free vitamin B12 binds to an R protein that moves it from the stomach to the duodenum. From the duodenum, the B12-IF complex travels to the distal ileum and interacts with cubam complex receptor on the brush border membrane of ileal cells. B12 is carried across the ileum’s basolateral membrane and binds to transcobalamin II for transport in portal blood. Following absorption, B12 appears in the blood in about 3–4 hours. Unlike other water-soluble vitamins, B12 can be stored in the body for relatively long periods 2. Key Terms a. Chaperones – soluble intracellular proteins that bind to and deliver minerals to specific intracellular locations 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.33 – vitamin B12 absorption C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Two enzymatic reactions require vitamin B12, both facilitating nutrient metabolism and energy production, and indirectly the synthesis of purines and pyrimidines for use in nucleic acids 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.34 – role of vitamin B12 in oxidation of L-methymalonyl-CoA D. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Vitamin B12 undergoes little to no degradation prior to excretion E. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Vitamin B12 recommended for adults is 2.4 µg per day; increase of 0.2 µg per day for pregnancy and 0.4 µg per day for lactation F. Deficiency: Megaloblastic Macrocytic Anemia 1. Similar to folate, vitamin B12 deficiency causes DNA synthesis to become deranged, along with cell differentiation and maturation 2. Key Terms a. Achlorhydria – lack of hydrochloric acid in gastric juices G. Toxicity 1. No clear toxicity has been reported; no Tolerable Upper Intake Level established H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Vitamin B12 status may be assessed using serum levels of cobalamin, methylmalonic acid, or using deoxyuridine suppression test © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

X. Vitamin B6 1. Vitamin B6 was isolated in 1934 and its structure confirmed in 1939 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.35 – vitamin B6 structures A. Sources 1. All B6 vitamers are found in food; main sources are animal products 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 9.13 – vitamin B6 content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Prior to absorption of vitamin B6, the phosphorylated vitamers must be dephosphorylated. Alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzes the phosphate from the phosphorylated vitamers to yield free pyridoxine, pyridoxal, or pyridoxamine. These are absorbed in the jejunum by passive diffusion.

Most can be released directly into portal blood, and the liver is the main organ that takes up and metabolizes newly absorbed vitamin B6 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.36 – vitamin B6 metabolism in the liver C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. The pyridoxal phosphate form of vitamin B6 functions as a coenzyme for over 100 enzymes, majority being involved in nutrient metabolism and also affect the production of neurotransmitters, nucleic acids, heme, sphingolipids, carnitine, and glucose 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 9.37 – covalent bonds of an acid that can be made labile by its binding to PLP-containing enzymes b. Figure 9.38 – role of vitamin B6 in transamination, phase 1 and phase 2 D. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Vitamin B6 is mainly excreted in the urine, with little in the feces E. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Vitamin B6 is recommended in amount of 1.3 mg per day for adult men between the ages of 19 and 50 years; for men older than 51, it is 1.7 mg per day. For adult women between the ages of 19 and 50 years, it is 1.3 mg per day, and over 51 years is 1.5 mg per day. Pregnancy and lactation recommendations are 1.9 mg per day and 2.0 mg per day, respectively F. Deficiency 1. Vitamin B6 deficiency is rare in the United States. Signs and symptoms include rash on the face, neck, shoulders, and buttocks areas, weakness, fatigue, cheilosis, glossitis, angular stomatitis, and neurological problems 2. Key Terms a. Seborrheic dermatitis – an inflammatory skin condition G. Toxicity 1. Intakes in excess of 2 g per day of pyridoxine are usually associated with paresthesia in the feet and hands, and impaired motor control or ataxia.

High intakes may cause degeneration of neurons. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for vitamin B6 is 100 mg per day for adults © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Plasma measurements of pyridoxal phosphate are the best indicators of vitamin B6 levels XI. Summary 1. Water-soluble vitamins are vitamin C and the B complex; many of these vitamins are stored within the liver and cells, while much of the excess is excreted through the urine and feces

Chapter Outline I. Introduction 1. This chapter covers the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as the carotenoids; and the sources, digestion and absorption, transport, metabolism, and storage, functions and mechanisms of actions, interactions with other nutrients, metabolism and excretion, recommended dietary allowance, deficiencies, toxicities, and assessment of each nutriture 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 10.1 – the fat-soluble vitamins: function, food sources, and recommended dietary allowance or adequate intake b. Table 10.2 – some common signs associated with fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies II. Vitamin A and Carotenoids 1. Vitamin A was discovered in 1915, with the term vitamin A generally referring to a group of compounds that possess the biological activity of alltrans retinol 2. Key Terms a. Isoprenoid – refers to the structure of the side chains of five-carbon units, as found in vitamins E and K A. Sources 1. Both preformed vitamin A (retinoids) and carotenoids are found naturally in foods 2. Vitamin is found primarily in selected foods of animal origin; carotenoids are synthesized by a wide variety of plants 3. Figures and Tables © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

a. Table 10.3 – vitamin A and β-carotene contents of selected foods b. Figure 10.1 – vitamin A and carotenoid structures B. Digestion and Absorption 1. Vitamin A requires some digestion before absorption in the small intestine 2. Carotenoids and retinyl esters are initially hydrolyzed from protein by pepsin in the stomach to form fat globules; these are then emptied into the duodenum where bile emulsifies them 3. Any remaining retinyl esters or carotenoids are hydrolyzed in the duodenum by enzymes to form micelles in the small intestine for absorption 4. Stored in the liver 5. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.2 – central cleavage of β-carotene to retinal b. Figure 10.3 – digestion and absorption of carotenoids and vitamin A, and re-esterification of retinol in the small intestine c. Figure 10.4 – retinoid metabolism C. Transport, Metabolism, and Storage 1. Transport to tissue requires newly formed retinyl esters to be incorporated into chylomicrons, which enter first into the lymphatic system and then into general circulation via the thoracic duct 2. Small quantities of unesterified retinol may enter portal blood 3. Retinyl esters are hydrolyzed by retinyl ester hydrolase following their uptake by hepatic parenchymal cells; within the hepatic cell, retinol binds to cellular retinol-binding protein, found throughout the body 4. Retinol that has been esterified may be stored in the liver; small amounts of retinol are stored in parenchymal cells 5. Retinol transport in the blood requires two specific proteins: retinol-binding protein and transthyretin 6. Retinol uptake is mediated by the protein transporter and stimulated by retinoic acid 6 7. Carotenoids reaching the liver undergo metabolism for either storage, cleavage, and/or incorporated into very low-density lipoproteins 8. Key Terms a. Parenchymal cells – functional cells of an organ such as the liver b. Stellate cells – storage cells of the liver 9. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.5 – vitamin A metabolism in the liver D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Vitamin A is essential for vision as well as for cellular differentiation, growth, reproduction, bone development, and immune system functions 2. Key Terms a. Rhodopsin – a vitamin A-containing protein found in the eye b. Transducin – a G-protein found in the eye that responds to changes in opsin and is involved in the visual cycle c. Homodimers – complexes formed between two of the same receptors or molecules © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

d. Heterodimers – complexes formed between two or more different receptors or molecules e. Keratinocytes – cells that produce the protein keratin f. Osteoblasts – bone-forming cells g. Osteoclasts – cells that break down or resorb bone 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.6 – an overview of the role of vitamin A as a part of rhodopsin in vision b. Figure 10.7 – the visual cycle c. Figure 10.8 – photoreceptor cells, their structure, and their surroundings d. Figure 10.9 – hypothesized mode of action for retinoic acid on gene expression E. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Vitamin A and carotenoids interact with vitamins E and K 2. Excess vitamin A interferes with vitamin K and high β-carotene intake may decrease plasma vitamin E concentrations 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.10 – metabolism of vitamin A, showing some excretory products that are secreted into the bile for removal from the body F. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Vitamin A is excreted in both the urine and feces 2. Carotenoids are metabolized and excreted primarily into the bile for fecal elimination G. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Vitamin A recommendation for adult men is 900 µg per day and 700 µg per day for adult women H. Deficiency 1. Vitamin A deficiency is rare in the United States 2. Selected signs and symptoms include anorexia, retarded growth, increased susceptibility to infections, obstruction and enlargement of hair follicles, and keratinization of epithelial cells 3. Key Terms a. Xerophthalmia – dryness of the conjunctiva and keratinization of the epithelium of the eye following inflammation of the conjunctiva associated with vitamin A deficiency b. Bitot’s spots – small, white, foamy-looking accumulations of sloughed cells and secretions in the eye that are associated with a vitamin A deficiency I. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Limit Level for vitamin A is 3,000 µg per day. Ingesting larger amounts may result in acute hypervitaminosis A with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, double or blurred vision, increased intracranial pressure, headache, dizziness, diarrhea, skin desquamation, and muscle incoordination 2.

a. Hyperplasia – abnormal cell proliferation b. Teratogenic – capable of causing birth defects in a fetus J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. To assess for night blindness, electrophysiological measurements directly measure the level of rhodopsin and its rate of regeneration in the eye 2. Conjunctival impression cytology is used to detect other eye problems 3. Plasma retinol concentrations are recommended as a biochemical indicator of vitamin A; relative dose response test is used to measure amounts of vitamin A in the liver III. Vitamin D 1. Vitamin D was discovered in 1922 and is derived from a steroid and considered to be a seco-steroid because one of its four rings is broken A. Sources 1. Vitamin D is provided as D3 by a relatively small number of foods of animal origin 2. The largest quantities are found in fatty fish; a few plant-origin foods provide some vitamin D as D2 3. Figures and Tables a. Table 10.4 – vitamin D content of selected foods b. Figure 10.11 – production of ergocalciferol and vitamin D3 B. Absorption 1. Dietary vitamin D requires no digestion and is absorbed from a micelle by passive diffusion into the intestinal cell C. Transport, Metabolism, and Storage 1. Chylomicrons transport vitamin D that came from the diet to nonhepatic tissues throughout the body, and deliver the vitamin to the liver 2. Vitamin D3 is made in the skin, which slowly diffuses from the skin and is picked up for transport in the blood by a vitamin D-binding protein 3. Vitamin D reaching the liver must be hydroxylated by cytochrome P-450 hydroxylases; after hepatic synthesis, most 25-OH D is secreted from the liver and transported in the blood by DBP and taken up by most tissues 4. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.12 – hydroxylation of vitamin D D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Calcitriol is mostly recognized for its role in serum calcium homeostasis with effects on the kidneys, small intestine, and bone; additional roles include serum phosphorus homeostasis; cell differentiation, proliferation, and growth; and muscle structure and function, as well as genomic mechanisms of action 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.13 – proposed role of calcitriol bound to VDR on DNA in gene expression b.

G. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Vitamin D recommendation is 600 IU for children older than 1 year, adolescents, and adults; this amount increases to 800 IU at the age of 70 and over H. Deficiency: Rickets and Osteomalacia 1. Vitamin D most notably affects bone. In infants and young children, the deficiency causes rickets, characterized by failure of bone to mineralize 2. In adults, vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia 3. Key Terms a. Osteomalacia – a disorder characterized by bone-mineralization defects that may occur in adults because of inadequate vitamin D intake I. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level has been set at 4,000 IU, by the Institute of Medicine, for children 9 years and older, adolescents, and adults 2. The Endocrine Practice Guidelines Committee sets the Upper Tolerable Intake Level at 10,000 IU J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Serum 25-OH D concentrations are most often used to asses vitamin D status; concentrations less than 20 ng/mL indicate deficiency IV. Vitamin E 1. Vitamin E encompasses eight compounds (vitamers), each containing a phenolic functional group on a chromanol ring; discovered in 1922 2. Key Terms a. Phytyl tail – refers to the structure of the side chains of vitamins E and K 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.15 – structures of the various forms of the tocopherols and tocotrienols A. Sources 1. Vitamin E is found primarily in plant foods, especially nuts, foods made from nuts, seeds, and the oils from plants 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 10.5 – vitamin E content of selected foods B. Digestion and Absorption 1. Tocopherols are found free in foods and tocotrienols are found esterified and must be hydrolyzed before absorption 2. Vitamin E is absorbed primarily in the jejunum by passive diffusion C. Transport, Metabolism, and Storage 1. In the enterocyte, the absorbed tocopherols and tocotrienols are incorporated into chylomicrons for transport through the lymph and then into circulation 2. Hepatic uptake of vitamin E occurs following delivery of the tocopherols and tocotrienols via chylomicron remnants 3. Tocopherol uptake into cells occurs in association with lipoproteins and vitamin E binds to specific binding proteins for intracellular transport © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

4. There is no single storage organ for vitamin E D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Vitamin E has a principal function as an antioxidant 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.16 – initiating and chain reactions caused by hydroxyl-free radical attack on unsaturated fatty acid b. Figure 10.17 – regeneration of vitamin E E. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. There is an interrelationship between vitamin E and selenium, vitamin E and vitamin C, vitamin E and β-carotene, and vitamin E and vitamin K F. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Hepatic metabolism of vitamin E begins with ω-hydroxylation reaction to form hydroxychromanol, followed by β-oxidation of fatty acids to create phytyl side chains 2. Vitamin E is excreted via the urine and feces G. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. Vitamin E recommendation is 15 mg for adult men and women H. Deficiency 1. A vitamin E deficiency is rare, but if seen may impact the integrity of cell membranes I. Toxicity 1. Vitamin E appears to be the least toxic fat-soluble compound with a Tolerable Upper Intake Level of 1,000 mg of α-tocopherol for adults J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Blood analysis is used to evaluate vitamin E; concentrations <5 mg/L suggest deficiency and >20 mg/L suggest possible toxicity V. Vitamin K 1. Discovered in 1935. Compounds with vitamin K activity have a 2-methyl 1, 4-naphthoquinone ring with a substitution at position 3 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 10.18 – structures of vitamin K A. Sources 1. Dietary vitamin K is provided mostly as phylloquinone from ingestion of plant foods 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 10.6 – vitamin K content of selected foods B. Absorption 1. Phylloquinone requires no digestion and is absorbed from the small intestine, particularly the jejunum C. Transport, Metabolism, and Storage 1. Within the enterocytes, the phylloquinone is incorporated into chylomicrons that enter the lymphatic system and then the circulatory system for transport to tissues

Figure 10.20 – production of s-carboxylglutamic acid via vitamin Kdependent carboxylation c. Figure 10.21 – the vitamin K cycle E. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Vitamin A and E are known to antagonize vitamin K F. Metabolism and Excretion 1. Phylloquinone is almost completely metabolized to a variety of metabolites before being excreted 2. Most phylloquinone’ s metabolites are conjugated with glucuronic acid for excretion mostly in the feces with some in the urine G. Adequate Intake 1. Vitamin recommendations for adult males is 120 µg/day and 90 µg/day for adult females H. Deficiency 1. Vitamin K deficiency is rare but subclinical deficiencies have been seen with provisions of about 10 g daily of phylloquinone. Severe deficiency is associated with bleeding episodes I. Toxicity 1. No Tolerable Upper Limit Level has been established for vitamin K J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Multiple biomarkers are used to assess vitamin K since no single index or biomarker clearly indicates deficiency and adequacy 2. Plasma and serum levels may be used to reflect phylloquinone levels, prothrombin time measures the time required for a fibrin clot to form, and a measurement of the percentage of undercarboxylated vitamin Kdependent proteins

Chapter Outline Resources Perspectives – Classroom Discussion Assignment – Individual Paper Answer Keys o Case Study o Responding to Research o Labeling It Worksheet 1: Research Study – Calcium and Phosphorus Homeostasis Worksheet 2: Labeling It – PTH and Calcium Regulation

Chapter Outline I. Introduction 1. This chapter covers the major minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and chloride, which constitute about 4% of the total body weight.

2. Minerals are inorganic elements that come from the earth 3. Major minerals are required in the adult in amounts greater than 100 mg/day 4. Key Terms a. Ions – an electrically charged atom or group of atoms; positively charged ions are called cations, and negatively charged ions are called anions 5. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.1 – the periodic table highlighting the body’s major minerals b. Table 11.1 – major minerals: functions, approximate body content, deficiency symptoms, food sources, and recommended dietary allowances II. Calcium 1. Most abundant divalent cation in the body, representing about 40% of the body’s mineral mass A. Sources 1. The best food sources of calcium are dairy products 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 11.2 – calcium content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, and Transport 1. Calcium is available in foods as relatively insoluble salts; it takes 1 hour at an acidic pH for calcium to be solubilized from most calcium salts

2. Calcium absorption occurs in the small intestine via two mechanisms: (1) saturable, carrier-mediated, active, transcellular transport and (2) diffusion 3. Calcium absorption via active transport involves a channel protein called transient receptor potential vanilloid 6 4. Transcaltachia is a process of rapid absorption of calcium through calcium channels in the enterocyte’s brush border membrane 5. Calcium absorption is influenced by stage of life and dietary factors 6. Calcium is transported in the blood in three forms 7. Figures and Tables a. Table 11.3 – interactions between calcium and selected nutrients/substances b. Figure 11.2 – the binding of calcium by oxalic acid C. Regulation and Homeostasis 1. Calcium concentrations are regulated intracellularly and extracellularly 2. Three main hormones are involved in extracellular regulation: PTH, calcitriol, and calcitonin 3. Ionized calcium is removed from the blood with secretion into the digestive tract, excretion in the urine, and uptake by the tissues 4. Calcium gains entry into intracellular sites such as the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria 5. The efflux of organelle-sequestered calcium into the cytosol typically requires a Ca2+-ATPase pump or release channel 6. Calcium-binding proteins function as an important buffer within cells to prevent excessive free calcium 7. Key Terms a. Ryanodine receptor – a calcium channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle that opens to permit the release of calcium 8. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.3 – calcium digestion, absorption, and transport b. Figure 11.4 – an overview of blood calcium regulation by parathyroid hormone and calcitriol in response to low blood calcium concentrations c. Table 11.4 – summary of the effects of parathyroid hormone, calcitriol, and calcitonin on calcium balance D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Calcium plays major roles in bone mineralization, muscle contraction, blood clot formation, signal transduction, and enzyme activation 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.5 – schematic representation of the structural change that occurs in calmodulin following the binding of calcium ions b. Table 11.5 – selected enzymes regulated by calcium and/or calmodulin E. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Large amounts of calcium along with phosphorus-containing foods inhibit phosphorus absorption 2. Calcium from dietary sources as well as supplements can decrease iron absorption; calcium also diminishes the absorption of fatty acids © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

F. Excretion 1. Calcium is excreted through the feces and urine 2. The kidneys filter ionized calcium and calcium that is bound to anions G. Recommended Dietary Allowances 1. Adult men, adult women, and pregnant and lactating women should consume 1,000 mg daily between the ages of 19 and 70 H. Deficiency 1. Inadequate intake of calcium, poor absorption, and excessive losses all contribute to calcium deficiency that also diminishes vitamin D absorption; this may lead to calcium loss from bone, osteopenia, muscle spasms, increased risks of colon cancer, type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and obesity 2. Key Terms a. Hypocalcemia – low concentration of calcium in the blood b. Tetany – a condition resulting from inadequate blood calcium concentrations, characterized by prolonged muscle contractions I. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is 2,500 mg of calcium for adults between 19 and 50 years of age, decreasing to 2,000 mg at age 51 and older 2. Idiopathic hypercalciuria, as well as calcium-alkali syndrome, is a condition that may result from too much calcium consumption 3. Key Terms a. Hypercalciuria – excessive urinary calcium excretion J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. No routine biochemical method is available to directly assess calcium status 2. Serum calcium may be evaluated, or measuring bone mineral density III. Phosphorus 1. Phosphorus is the second most abundant mineral in the body, representing 0.8–1.4% of body weight A. Sources 1. Best food sources for phosphorus include protein-rich foods like meat 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 11.6 – phosphorus content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, and Transport 1. Most phosphorus is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract as free inorganic phosphate ions 2. Phosphorus absorption occurs throughout the small intestine, but primarily in the jejunum 3. Absorption occurs by two processes: (1) saturable, carrier-mediated, active transport and (2) diffusion 4. Active transport involves a sodium-phosphate cotransporter 5. Many factors influence phosphorus absorption, such as phosphorus bioavailability, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, and niacin © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

6. Phosphorus is quickly absorbed from the intestine and appears in the blood within an about an hour after ingestion 7. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.7 – phytic acid b. Figure 11.8 – digestion, absorption, and transport of phosphorus C. Regulation and Homeostasis 1. Parathyroid hormone and fibroblast growth factor 23 influence phosphorus balance, with calcitriol and calcitonin contributing D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Phosphorus is found in all cells of the body and plays roles in bone mineralization, energy transfer and storage, nucleic acid formation, cell membrane structure, and acid-base balance 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.9 – some examples of important phosphorus-containing compounds in the body E. Excretion 1. Phosphorus is excreted via the urine and feces F. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. For adult males and females, it is recommended to obtain 700 mg/day of phosphorus G. Deficiency 1. Phosphorus deficiency is rare, but if present affects bone and severe deficiency could affect oxygen transport and cardiac output, and cause arrhythmias, skeletal muscle and cardiac myopathy, and neurological problems H. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is 4 g of phosphorus for ages 9 to 70 2. Toxicity may impair renal function, and cause atherosclerosis and left ventricular hypertrophy I. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Serum concentration and urinary excretion may be assessed for phosphorus levels IV. Magnesium 1. Magnesium ranks sixth in overall abundance in the body out of the major minerals A. Sources 1. Magnesium is found in a variety of foods, including nuts, seeds, and wholegrain cereals 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 11.7 – magnesium content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, and Transport 1. Dietary magnesium doesn’t require digestion prior to absorption 2. Two processes facilitate magnesium absorption throughout the small intestine; however, the colon also absorbs magnesium © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

3. The two small intestine processes are (1) saturable, carrier-mediated active transport and (2) diffusion 4. The active transporter required for magnesium is a transient receptor protein melastatin divalent cation-permeable channel protein; in the plasma/serum, most magnesium is found free in its ionic form as magnesium cation, 20–30% is bound to protein, and 5–15% is complexed with citrate, phosphate, sulfate, or other negative charged anions 5. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.10 – magnesium absorption and transport b. Table 11.8 – substances/nutrients affecting intestinal magnesium absorption C. Regulation and Homeostasis 1. Magnesium balance depends on gastrointestinal absorption and renal excretion 2. Plasma magnesium concentrations can be maintained at the expense of the bone D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Magnesium aids in bone mineralization, enzymatic reactions, nucleic acids, platelet activity, hormone receptor binding and signaling transmission, cell membrane ion transfer, and calcium regulation 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 11.11 – modes by which Mg2+ provides stability to ATP E. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Magnesium interacts with phosphorus to inhibit phosphorus absorption.

Magnesium also interacts with potassium F. Excretion 1. Magnesium is excreted from the body mainly via the kidneys, with lesser amounts excreted in the urine when plasma magnesium is low G. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. The RDA for magnesium for adult males between 19 and 30 years of age is 400 mg and females needing 310 mg; above 31 years of age, males should have 420 mg and females 320 mg 2. During pregnancy between 19 and 30 years, it is 350 mg and for 31–50 years, it is 360 mg; during lactation for 19–30 years, it is 310 mg and for 31–50 years, it is 320 mg H. Deficiency 1. Magnesium deficiency is traditionally diagnosed based on total plasma/serum magnesium concentrations 2. Hypomagnesemia can include decreased serum concentrations of PTH, calcium, potassium, and calcitriol 3. Symptoms may include neuromuscular hyperexcitability 4. Key Terms a. Hypokalemia – low concentrations of potassium in the blood I. Toxicity

Worksheet 2: Labeling It – PTH and Calcium Regulation 1. Low blood calcium signals the parathyroid gland to release parathyroid hormone into the blood.

2. PTH binds to bone cell receptors and triggers the resorption or breakdown of bone mineral for the release of calcium into the blood.

3. PTH acts on the kidneys to synthesize the active form of vitamin D, calcitriol.

4. PTH and calcitriol promote the reabsorption of calcium from the kidneys and into the blood.

5. Calcitriol leaves the kidneys and travels to the intestine, where it promotes calcium absorption across the brush border membrane, its transport in the cell cytosol, and egress into the blood.

6. Calcium enters the blood; a – after release from bone, b – after release from kidneys, and c – after absorption from intestinal cells.

VI. Water (Fluid) and Sodium Balance A. Osmotic Pressure 1. Pressure that affects water passage across the cell plasma membrane between the intracellular and extracellular compartments; gains and losses of fluid along with the solutes (salts) influence fluid balance and flow 2. Key Terms a. Osmosis – the net movement of the solvent from a solution of lesser concentration to one of greater concentration when the two solutions are separated by a membrane that selectively prevents passage of solute molecules but is permeable to the solvent b. Hyponatremia – low concentrations of sodium in the blood 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.1 – electrolytes in the plasma, interstitial, and intracellular compartments of the body B. Hydrostatic Pressure 1. Pressure that affects water movement within the two main extracellular fluid compartments, between the interstitial fluid and the plasma 2. Water moves from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure, known as hydrostatic pressure 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.2 – Starling’s hypothesis of water distribution between plasma and interstitial fluid compartments C. Colloidal Osmotic Pressure 1. This is the pressure that affects water movement across the capillary walls that separate the plasma and the interstitial fluid 2. Key Terms a. Colloids – substances comprised of very small particles that are suspended uniformly in a medium D. Extracellular Fluid Volume and Osmolarity and Hormonal Controls 1. Shifts in the extracellular fluid volume and osmolarity serve as one of the many triggers for the release of hormones responsible for correcting imbalances; these hormones include vasopressin, renin-angiotensinaldosterone system, and natriuretic peptides 2. Key Terms a. Osmolality – a measure of solute particle numbers expressed as osmoles of solute per kg of solvent b. Osmoles – the number of moles of each particle in solution c. Natriuresis – excretion of large amounts of sodium in the urine 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.3 – a nephron b.

VII. Sodium A. Sources 1. The major source of sodium in the diet of Americans is salt. Naturally occurring sources are milk, meat, eggs, and most vegetables B. Absorption and Transport 1. The majority of sodium is absorbed from the small intestine and proximal portion of the colon 2. Three main mechanisms enable intestinal sodium absorption: (1) Na+/glucose cotransporter, (2) electroneutral Na+ and Cl- cotransport exchange, and (3) electrogenic system; sodium is then transported freely in the blood 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.5 – intestinal sodium absorption C. Functions and Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Sodium plays important roles in maintaining osmotic pressure for fluid balance and aids in nerve transmission/impulse conduction and muscle contraction D. Excretion 1. Kidneys provide the primary means of excreting excess sodium E. Adequate Intake, Deficiency, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Sodium intake is recommended at an Adequate Intake of 1,500 mg and a Tolerable Upper Intake Level of 2,300 mg for adults daily 2. Dietary deficiency of sodium doesn’t normally occur; however, excessive sweating may result in deficiency 3. Deficiency symptoms include muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, shock, and coma 4. Sodium is measured via a 24-hour urinary sodium excretion level VIII. Potassium A. Sources 1. Potassium is widespread in the diet and abundant in fruits and vegetables.

Potassium may also be found in processed foods B. Absorption and Transport 1. Over 85% of ingested potassium is absorbed and absorption occurs throughout the small intestine and lesser in the colon, usually via passive diffusion C. Functions and Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Potassium has roles in water balance, acid-base balance, and cellular metabolism 2. Potassium interacts with calcium and affects urinary excretion of calcium D. Excretion 1. Potassium is excreted from the body mainly via the kidneys with small amounts through the feces and sweat E. Adequate Intake, Deficiency, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Adequate Intake of potassium is 4,700 mg per day for adults © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

2. Deficiency of potassium is seen from situations causing loss of fluids and electrolytes; deficiency symptoms include muscle weakness, lethargy, ascending paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and possibly death 3. Key Terms a. Hyperkalemia – high concentrations of potassium in the blood IX. Chloride A. Sources 1. Most chloride consumed in the diet is associated with sodium chloride, and abundant in many foods, including snack items and processed foods; it is also found in eggs, fresh meats, and seafood B. Absorption and Transport 1. Chloride is almost completely absorbed in the intestines and follows that of sodium for the establishment and maintenance of electrical neutrality and osmotic balance 2. In the electroneutral Na+/Cl- cotransport absorption system, chloride is absorbed in exchange for bicarbonate as sodium is absorbed in exchange for H+; Cl- channels in colonic cells also provide for chloride transport 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.6 – one mechanism for intestinal chloride secretion C. Functions and Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Chloride aids in fluid balance, formation of gastric hydrochloric acid, destruction of foreign substances, and chloride shift D. Excretion 1. Chloride excretion occurs through three routes: (1) the gastrointestinal tract, (2) the skin, and (3) the kidneys E. Adequate Intake, Deficiency, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Adequate Intake recommendation for chloride for adults is 2,300 mg per day with a Tolerable Upper Intake Level of 3.6 g 2. If dietary deficiency occurs, symptoms are diarrhea and vomiting resulting in weakness, lethargy, and metabolic acidosis 3. Chloride status is assessed through evaluation of chloride concentration in the serum X. Acid-Base Balance: Control of Hydrogen Ion Concentration 1. The maintenance of hydrogen ion concentration in body fluids 2. Key Terms a. Hydrogen ion – cation of hydrogen containing a single proton and no electrons A. Chemical Buffer Systems 1. A buffer is a substance that reversibly binds protons to help resist changes in pH despite the addition of acids or bases to the environment 2. The body has a bicarbonate-carbonic acid buffer system, a buffer system of proteins and hemoglobin, a phosphate buffer system, and a potassium buffer system © 2018 Cengage Learning.

3. Key Terms a. Amphoteric – capable of reacting as either an acid or a base 4. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.7 – red blood cell of hemoglobin as a buffer for hydrogen ions and the release of the buffer bicarbonate B. Respiratory Regulation 1. Lungs respond within minutes to unbalanced chemical buffer systems.

They work to regulate the HCO3-/H2CO3 system C. Renal Regulation 1. Kidneys take hours or days to effect change in pH. They act by controlling the secretion of H+, by conserving or producing HCO3-, and by synthesizing and excreting ammonia, which reacts with H+ to form ammonium ions for excretion 2. Filtered phosphate also facilitates H+ excretion 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 12.8 – acid-base balance by the kidneys XI. Summary A. Maintaining body fluids is a requirement for life B. Intracellular fluid provides the environment for metabolic reactions within cells, while the interstitial fluid compartment of the extracellular fluid allows nutrients to migrate from cells to the bloodstream C. Kidneys aid in fluid control mostly through hormones, with macrominerals aiding in fluid balance and waste removal

2. Selenoamino acids are transported across the basolateral membrane using amino acid transporters; however, the mechanisms by which inorganic selenium crosses the enterocyte’s basolateral membrane to enter the portal blood are unknown 3. In the liver, organic and inorganic forms of selenium are metabolized; it is stored in the kidneys, liver, and spleen, with lower amounts stored in the pancreas, heart, brain, and lungs C. Metabolism 1. Selenium is metabolized in the liver 2. Synthesis of selenocysteine-containing proteins begins with selenophosphate and the amino acid serine\ 3. Selenocysteine synthase replaces the hydroxyl group of serine with a HSe from selenophosphate to form SEC-tRNASEC 4. SEC-tRNA delivers selenocysteine to the growing peptide chains of the various SEC-containing proteins like glutathione peroxidase, iodothyronine 5′-deiodinase, and thioredoxin reductase, among others 5. Figures and Tables a. Figure 13.17 – selenium metabolism in the liver D. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1.

of pigmentation of hair and skin, whitening of nail beds, and reduced immune system function I. Toxicity 1. Selenium toxicity, selenosis, has been observed in miners and people who consume excessive amounts 2. Symptoms of toxicity include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, diarrhea, hair brittleness, brittle and thickened nails, muscle cramps, paresthesia, interference in sulfur metabolism, and inhibition of protein synthesis J. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Serum or plasma selenium concentrations are widely used for assessment VI. Chromium A. Sources 1. Good dietary sources of chromium are generally thought to include meats and grains along with some vegetables and fruits B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Chromium may be released from food components in acidic solutions with chromium being absorbed throughout the small intestine, especially the jejunum; it is thought to be absorbed via passive diffusion 2. Chromium binds to transferrin for transport in the blood; if transferrin sites are unavailable, then albumin may transport it 3. The body contains 4–6 mg of chromium between the liver, spleen, bone, kidneys, heart, and pancreas C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Chromium is thought to potentiate the action of insulin 2. Key Terms a. Glucose tolerance factor – chromium-containing compound whose structure has yet to be characterized but may potentiate the action of insulin in the body 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 13.18 – proposed role of chromium as part of chromodulin in potentiating insulin’s reactions D. Excretion 1. Most chromium is excreted from the body via urine E. Adequate Intake 1.

1. The use of chromium picolinate has been associated with chromosomal and organ damage 2. Oral supplementation of 1,000 µg of chromium appears to be safe H. Assessment of Nutriture 1. No specific tests are available to determine chromium status VII. Iodine A. Sources 1. Good sources for iodine include seafood, meats, eggs, and dairy 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 13.10 – iodine content of selected foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Dietary iodine is either bound to amino acids or found free 2. Organic bound iodine is released during digestion and converted to iodide 3. Iodide is absorbed rapidly, mostly from the stomach and some in the duodenum; following absorption, free iodide appears in the blood 4. The thyroid gland traps iodide most aggressively through active transport 5. Iodide uptake also occurs in salivary glands C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. The main function of iodide is in the synthesis of the thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 13.19 – overview of iodine intrathyroidal metabolism and hormonogenesis b. Table 13.11 – selected physiological effects of thyroid hormones D. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Iodine interacts with selenium, iron, vitamin A, and goitrogens 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 13.20 – goitrin E. Excretion 1. The kidneys have no mechanism to conserve iodide and therefore provide the major route for iodide excretion F. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. The RDA for iodine for adults is 150 µg/day, 220 µg/day during pregnancy, and 290 µg/day during lactation G. Deficiency 1. Iodide uptake affects the thyroid-stimulating hormone. Iodine deficiency symptoms include goiter, thyroid dysfunction, growth, and neurological cretinism H. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for iodine has been set at 1,100 µg/day.

Signs of acute iodide toxicity include burning of the mouth, throat, and stomach; nausea; vomiting; diarrhea; and fever I. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Iodine may be measured via urinary excretion © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

VIII. Manganese A. Sources 1. Whole-grain cereals, nuts, and leafy vegetables are considered manganeserich foods B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. It is unclear if manganese bound to food needs to undergo digestion prior to absorption; manganese is absorbed via an active carrier protein such as divalent mineral transport 1 and/or Zrt- and Irt-like protein 14. Diffusion may contribute to absorption at higher manganese intakes 2. Manganese entering into portal circulation from the gastrointestinal tract may either remain free or become bound to α-2-macroglobulin before traversing the liver 3. Upon release from the liver, some manganese may remain free in the blood and some bound to albumin, α-2-macroglobulin, β-globulin, or γ-globulin, or be oxidized and complexed with transferrin 4. Manganese is cleared quickly from the blood; manganese is found in most tissues, highest being in the bones, liver, pancreas, and kidneys C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. Manganese functions both as an enzyme activator and as a constituent of metalloenzymes D. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. Manganese reacts with iron, calcium, zinc, and possibly some trace elements E. Excretion 1. Manganese is excreted primarily via the bile in the feces F. Adequate Intake 1. RDA for manganese for adult men is 2.3 mg/day and 1.8 mg/day for adult female, 2 mg/day during pregnancy, and 2.6 mg/day during lactation G. Deficiency 1. Manganese deficiency is rare and symptoms include nausea; vomiting; dermatitis; decreased serum manganese; decreased fecal manganese excretion; increased serum calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase; decreased growth of hair and nails, changes in hair and beard color; poor bone formation and skeletal defects; decreased clotting proteins; and altered carbohydrate and lipid metabolism H. Toxicity 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for manganese is 11 mg/day. Toxicity symptoms include cough, bronchitis, pneumonitis, reduced lung function, tremors, diminished memory capacity, loss of coordination, insomnia, headache, forgetfulness, anxiety, mood changes, compulsive behaviors, reduced reaction time, rapid hand movements, and gait disturbance I. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Manganese concentrations may be measured in the plasma/serum and whole blood © 2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

IX. Molybdenum A. Sources 1. Widespread among foods with better dietary sources being legumes, meat, fish, and poultry B. Digestion, Absorption, Transport, and Storage 1. Molybdenum doesn’t appear to require digestion prior to absorption from the small intestine, especially the proximal region; absorption is thought to be passive 2. Molybdenum is found in the liver, kidneys, and bone in highest concentrations C. Functions and Mechanisms of Action 1. The biochemical role of molybdenum centers around the redox function of the element and its necessity as a cofactor in the form of molybdopterin for four metalloenzymes, all of which catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 13.21 – molybdopterin structures b. Figure 13.22 – molybdenum’s role in hypoxanthine and xanthine degradation c. Figure 13.23 – reduction of N-hydroxylated compounds such as benzamidoxine by the molybdenum-dependent enzyme amidoxime reductase D. Interactions with Other Nutrients 1. The most notable interaction is molybdenum with copper E. Excretion 1. Most molybdenum is excreted as molybdate in the urine

F. Recommended Dietary Allowance 1. RDA for molybdenum for adults is 45 µg/day, and 50 µg/day during pregnancy and lactation G. Deficiency 1. Molybdenum deficiency is rare and associated with high blood concentrations of methionine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine, as well as low blood concentrations of uric acid 2. Genetic defects in enzymes involved in molybdopterin synthesis disrupt both cofactor production and molybdenum use in molybdenum-dependent enzymes 3. Deficiency is characterized by poor feeding, attenuated brain growth, seizures, severe neurological damage, and death in childhood H. Toxicity 1. Molybdenum appears to be relatively nontoxic with symptoms such as gout.

The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for molybdenum has been set at 2 mg I. Assessment of Nutriture 1. Molybdenum appears to distribute itself fairly equally between the plasma and red blood cells, but no indicator has been established

Chapter Outline I. Introduction 1. Trace elements are minerals that are needed in amounts less than 100 mg/day, while ultratrace elements are those with a required amount less than 1 mg/day 2. There are at least 18 elements classified as ultratrace 3. Figures and Tables a. Figure 14.1 – periodic table highlighting important nonessential trace and ultratrace elements b. Table 14.1 – nonessential trace and ultratrace elements II. Fluoride 1. Typically found in metal, nonmetal, or organic compound. Not considered an essential nutrient A. Sources 1. Community drinking water has been fluoridated since about 1945 in the United States; also found in some grains and cereal products, fish, and tea 2. Figures and Tables a. Table 14.2 – fluoride content of selected food groups B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. In foods, fluoride may be bound to proteins and must be hydrolyzed 2. Fluoride is transported in the blood free as ionic fluoride and hydrofluoric acid, as well as bound to plasma proteins 3. Ionic fluoride is rapidly excreted in the urine C. Functions and Deficiency 1. Fluoride replaces some of the hydroxide ions in hydroxyapatite to form fluorohydroxyapatite, which increases the mineralization of the crystalline © 2018 Cengage Learning.

structure and is less acid-soluble than hydroxyapatite; this increases the resistance of tooth enamel to acid demineralization D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Adequate Intake for adult males is 4 mg/day and for adult females is 3 mg/day 2. Acute toxicity manifests as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, acidosis, and cardiac arrhythmias 3. Death has been reported at an ingestion of 5–10 g of sodium fluoride 4. Chronic fluoride toxicity is characterized by changes in the teeth, skeleton, and nonskeletal tissues III. Arsenic 1. Colorless and odorless, and essentiality is not certain A. Sources 1. Arsenic is present in water, rocks, and soils. Seafood is a rich source of arsenic 2. Figures and Tables a. Figure 14.2 – two forms of arsenic commonly found in seafoods B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. Small amounts of arsenic from the environment may be absorbed through inhalation and via the skin, while 90% or more of arsenate and arsenite is absorbed in the small intestine from water 2. In the liver, organic forms arsenobetaine and arsenocholine undergo little metabolism; inorganic arsenic is extensively metabolized 3. Arsenic may conjugate with glutathione; it is excreted rapidly by the kidneys 4. Figures and Tables a. Figure 14.3 – metabolism of arsenic C. Functions and Deficiency 1. No biological function for arsenic has been demonstrated in humans D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. No recommended intake amount for arsenic has been established. Acute toxicity results in abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle cramping, numbness and tingling, and liver damage 2. Chronic toxicity affects most body systems IV. Boron 1. Boron is a beneficial bioactive element for humans, but not considered essential A. Sources 1. Boron food sources are fruits, vegetables, nuts, and legumes B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. Greater than 85% of ingested boron is absorbed as boric acid by passive diffusion in the gastrointestinal tract; also found in the blood, with uptake occurring in bones, nails, and hair © 2018 Cengage Learning.

C. Functions and Deficiency 1. Boron has beneficial effects on bone, immune, and brain function D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Recommended intakes have not been established for boron. Intakes of 1–3 mg/day have been beneficial for brain and bone health 2. Acute boron toxicity results in nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dermatitis, and lethargy 3. Chronic boron toxicity is associated with nausea, poor appetite, anemia, dermatitis, and seizures V. Nickel 1. Nickel is considered as possibly essential, but no role for nickel has been established A. Sources 1. Nickel is found higher in plant sources B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. Nickel absorption from food is low, less than 10%; absorption of nickel is higher from water and beverages 2. Nickel is absorbed across the enterocyte’s brush border membrane and likely competes with iron for carrier transport 3. In the blood, nickel binds to albumin, peptides, and amino acids 4. Most nickel is excreted in the urine C. Functions and Deficiency 1. No specific role for nickel in humans has been identified D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for nickel for adults is 1.0 mg/day in the form of soluble nickel salts 2. Acute nickel toxicity symptoms include headache, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, and irritability VI. Silicon 1. Silicon has not been found to be essential and no specific biochemical function for silicon has been established A. Sources 1. Plant foods contain silicon B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. Silicon is found in water as monosilicic acid, which is readily absorbed from the proximal small intestine 2. Silicon in plant foods contains phytolithic silica that requires digestion 3. Once absorbed into the blood, it is taken up by the liver, lungs, skin, bones, heart, muscles, spleen, and testes 4. Silicon is excreted via the urine C. Functions and Deficiency 1. Silicon is thought to play both metabolic and structural/binding roles in connective tissues © 2018 Cengage Learning.

D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. No Tolerable Upper Intake Level for silicon; a safe upper level of 700 mg/day has been suggested VII.

Vanadium 1. Occurs in several oxidation states A. Sources 1. The richest sources of vanadium are fish and shellfish B. Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion 1. Metabolism and absorption of vanadium vary with its oxidation states 2. Vanadate may be absorbed directly via the same transport carrier system as used by phosphate and then reduced intracellularly by glutathione 3. The total pool of vanadium is about 100–200 µg 4. Renal excretion is the major route for elimination of absorbed vanadium C. Functions and Deficiency 1. No specific biochemical function has been identified for vanadium, but may have roles with enzymes, phosphates, insulin, and carcinogenic properties D. Recommended Intake, Toxicity, and Assessment of Nutriture 1. Human requirement for vanadium is not established 2. A Tolerable Upper Intake Level is set at 1.8 mg/day, and daily intakes of up to 100 µg are considered safe 3. Mild toxic manifestations include green tongue syndrome, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps 4. Chronic toxicity manifests as hypertension, neurological disorders, respiratory tract irritation, hepatic damage, cardiac damage, and renal damage
