Today we cover glucose absorption in epithelial cells, a topic that is quite integrative—just like the MCAT! One big takeaway is the difference between primary active transport (uses ATP) and secondary active transport (uses a gradient created by a primary active transport protein).

*Note: these epithelial cells are also referred to as brush-border cells.

If you want more info on the transporter on the basal side of the epithelial cell, check out our video on GLUT transporters.
