Mechanism of Na-K-ATPase Inhibition by PGE2 in Intestinal Epithelial Cells

The primary means of intestinal absorption of nutrients by villus cells is via Na-dependent nutrient co-transporters located in the brush border membrane (BBM). These secondary active co-transport processes require a favorable transcellular Na gradient that is provided by Na-K-ATPase. In chronic ent...
