Intestinal absorption of glucose occurs with the help of:
Cells of the intestine and kidneys use SGLT for glucose entry into the cell (from lumen) SGLT: secondary active transpo. MOA: active transpo of Na+ from basolateral membrane depletes intracellular Na. | Na+ & glucose combine with SGLT on the luminal surface of intestinal epithelial cells | Glucose enters intestinal cells | Glucose transpoed out from basolateral membrane GLUT into blood
