1. The effect of colchicine on calcium absorption across rat duodenum has been investigated using the single-pass continuous perfusion technique and the two-compartment system model. 2. Perfusing the rat duodenum with 0.1 and 0.5 mM colchicine produced a dose-dependent inhibiting pattern of calcium transport with no effect noted for water transport. 3. Colchicine at 0.5 mM caused a significant decrease in the rate of calcium uptake and in the accumulation capacity of the duodenal cells. 4. Accumulation of calcium in the duodenal strips displayed saturation kinetics with increasing concentration of calcium in the incubation medium. Colchicine at 0.5 mM showed a lower saturation level and decreased the average maximal flux around 46%. |
