Diurnal rhythm of H+-peptide cotransporter in rat small intestine

In mammals, most physiological, biochemical, and behavioral processes show a circadian rhythm. Pan et al examined the diurnal rhythm of the H+-peptide cotransporter (PEPT1), which transports small peptides and peptide-like drugs in the small intestine and kidney, using rats maintained in a 12-h phot...

Description
Summary:In mammals, most physiological, biochemical, and behavioral processes show a circadian rhythm. Pan et al examined the diurnal rhythm of the H+-peptide cotransporter (PEPT1), which transports small peptides and peptide-like drugs in the small intestine and kidney, using rats maintained in a 12-h photoperiod with free access to chow.
