Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Previous studies have demonstrated the absorption of porcine trypsin in isolated jejunal loops from male Wistar rats by open-loop perfusion. The possible routes of absorption were examined in the study reported here. Trypsin (0.5 mg/ml) was dissolved in tyrode solution and perfused at a rate of 0.5 ml/min, at 37 degrees C, for 40 min. Using immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence techniques, strong reactivity towards anti-TLCK-trypsin antibody was demonstrated through out the enterocyte cytosol. The present data indicate that trypsin was absorbed by enterocytes, probably through a transcellular route.
