How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. Vulgaxanthin-i showed low apparent permeability across Caco-2 monolayers; the reported three-pigment range was 4.2-8.9 x 10^-7 cm/s.

    experimental_model
    Human Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cell model
    limitations
    Low apparent permeability in cultured cells is not a measured human oral bioavailability fraction; findings depend on pigment and assay. The range spans the three compounds; it is not an assigned compound-specific coefficient.
