This study aimed to develop gastroretentive tablets based on mucoadhesive-floating systems with encapsulated gentian (, Gentianaceae) root extract to overcome the low bioavailability and short elimination half-life of gentiopicroside, a dominant bioactive compound with systemic effect. The formulation also aimed to promote the local action of the extract in the stomach. Tablets were obtained by direct compression of sodium bicarbonate (7.

The primary role of pancreatic ductal HCO secretion is to prevent premature activation of digestive enzymes and to provide a vehicle for the delivery of enzymes to the duodenum. In addition, HCOis responsible for the neutralization of gastric juice and protect against the formation of protein plugs and viscous mucus. Due to this multifaceted role of HCO in the pancreas, its altered functioning can greatly contribute to the development of various exocrine diseases.

Background & Aims: Pancreatic ducts form an intricate network of tubules that secrete bicarbonate and drive acinar secretions into the duodenum. This network is formed by centroacinar cells, terminal, intercalated, intracalated ducts, and the main pancreatic duct. Ductal heterogeneity at the single-cell level has been poorly characterized; therefore, our understanding of the role of ductal cells in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis has been hampered by the limited knowledge and unexplained diversity within the ductal network.

Duodenal bicarbonate secretion is critical to epithelial protection, as well as nutrient digestion and absorption, and is impaired in cystic fibrosis (CF). We examined if linaclotide, typically used to treat constipation, may also stimulate duodenal bicarbonate secretion. Bicarbonate secretion was measured in vivo and in vitro using mouse and human duodenum (biopsies and enteroids).

A peptic ulcer is a lesion (sore) on the stomach lining, or duodenum. Peptic ulcers are probably a twentieth-century condition. The ulcer disease continues to be a significant source of worldwide morbidity and mortality.
