Receptor-Mediated Transcytosis of Leptin through Human Intestinal Cells In Vitro

Receptor-Mediated Transcytosis of Leptin through Human Intestinal Cells In Vitro

Gastric Leptin is absorbed by duodenal enterocytes and released on the basolateral side towards the bloodstream. We investigated in vitro some of the mechanisms of this transport. Caco-2/15 cells internalize leptin from the apical medium and release it through transcytosis in the basal medium in a t...
