The purpose of this study was to determine the relative importance of peptide transporter 1 (PEPT1) in the uptake of peptides/mimetics from mouse small intestine, using glycylsarcosine (GlySar). After isolating jejunal tissue from wild-type and Pept1 null mice, 2 cm intestinal segments were everted
We describe the synthesis of a fluorescent dipeptide derivative, β€-Ala-Lys-N -AMCA, which could be used as an excellent reporter molecule for studying the oligopeptide transport system in brain cell cultures. Fluorescence microscopic and immunocytochemical studies revealed that the reporter peptide
The origin and function of the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) that are located at the level of the deep muscular plexus (DMP) have not been completely identified. It has been recently reported that these cells express neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptors to which substance P (SP) shows the highest affin
