The transport of 10 amino acid ester prodrugs of levovirin (LVV) was investigated in the human intestinal Caco-2 cell line in order to overcome the poor oral bioavailability of LVV, an investigational drug for the treatment of hepatitis C infection. The prodrugs were designed to improve the permeabi

The transepithelial absorption of food-type proteins has been shown to proceed by endocytosis along two functional pathways: a minor direct pathway allowing transport of intact protein and J major lysosomal degradative pathway. The human colon carcinoma cell line CaCo-2 grown on Millipore filters wa
We previously reported that the enterocytic differentiation of human colonic Caco-2 cells correlated with down-regulation of fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LN), two extracellular matrix components interacting with cell surface integrin receptors. We now investigated whether Caco-2 cell differentiatio
