The aim of this symposium was to provide a framework for fruitful
discussion on intestinal transport, not only for advanced
scientists but also for younger people starting in this field of
research. Invited lectures, communications and poster presentations
were focused on four central themes, all treating the prop erties
of the sole intestinal epithelium, deliberately leaving aside
problems dealing with more integrative functions of the whole
intestine. The importance of motility or blood circulation, for
instance, is certainly capital in the overall intestinal function,
but these aspects by themselves deserve another meeting. This
volume has compiled the manuscripts of the invited lectures which
sub stantially comprised the four sessions of the Symposium. Part 1
is designed to emphasize actual knowledge of the transport of
water, inorganic as well as organic ions and molecules across the
isolated intestinal epithelium. An enormous wave of investigations
has emerged from studies per formed with "Ussing chambers," which
roused interest in studies on absorption mechanisms and
subsequently on secretory processes. This has triggered off a trend
to research on isolated cells as absorption and secretion are the
main func tion of the different cell types constituting the
intestinal epithelium. In this first session not only the
importance of the parallel arrangement of these different cellular
entities is stressed, but also the role played by the paracellular
route."
