The article describes the mechanism and principle of the use of membrane vesicles in the implementation of the main functions of
these organs: secretion of hydrochloric acid by parietal cells, absorption of nutrients in the small intestine and liquid at concentration
bile by epithelial cells of the gallbladder. Evidence is given of the intracellular formation of hydrochloric acid in the tubulovesicles of
parietal cells and the turnover of its secretory membranes during the secretory cycle, which ensures their multiple use and explaining
the extraordinary lifespan of these unique cells. On this basis, a reliable mechanism of inhibition of HCl secretion by H+ -K + -ATPase
blockers are described. The article discusses in detail the endocytic mechanism of absorption of ions and nutrients by enterocytes.
The mechanism of participation of the apical contractile complex of brush borders of epithelial cells in the initiation of endocytosis
and cytoplasmic microtubules in the transport of membrane vesicles through the cytoplasm is analysed in detail.
Based on our own research and numerous works in the world scientific literature, it was concluded that there are two energydependent
modes of transport in the absorptive epithelium of the digestive organs - transmembrane (ionic and nutritional)
homeostasis, carried out by the ATPase system of the basal plasmalemma, and vesicular (endocytic), implemented by the apical
complex edges and microtubules of the cytoplasm. Both modes of transport are interconnected and are under constant cellular
control. It is concluded that this is directly related to the majority of cells, including those that secrete various substances: hydrochloric
acid by parietal cells, enzymes by the main cells of the stomach glands and exocrinocytes of the pancreas, hormones by endocrine
cells of the APUD system and, finally, mediators by nerve cells...
To clarify the problem of cell transport, it is proposed to distinguish between two types of them: homeostatic and functional.
The first is carried out mainly in relation to ions on the basolateral membrane with the help of its ATPase systems and provides
intracellular homeostasis and nutritional co - transport, while the second (functional) determines the performance of the main
specific function with the help of membrane vesicles.
