Transport Study of Egg-Derived Antihypertensive Peptides (LKP and IQW) Using Caco-2 and HT29 Coculture Monolayers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of the transport of antihypertensive tripeptides LKP (Leu-Lys-Pro) and IQW (Ile-Gln-Trp) derived from egg white using a coculture system of Caco-2 and HT29 cell monolayers. The results revealed that LKP and IQW have no cytotoxicity to the cell viability after 2 h incubation, could be transported intact across coculture monolayers (apparent permeability coefficient: (18.11 ± 1.57) × 10 –8 and (13.21 ± 1.12) × 10 –8 cm/s, respectively), and were resistant to peptidase secreted by enterocytes. In addition, the transports were significantly inhibited by dipeptide Gly-Pro ( P < 0.05), a competitive substance of peptide transporter 1 (PepT1). The transports from apical to basolateral side were significantly higher than that of the reverse direction ( P < 0.05). These results suggest that PepT1 is involved in LKP and IQW transports. The transports were also significantly decreased by theaflavin-3′-O-gallate ( P < 0.05), an enhancer of tight junction (TJ) and increased by cytochalasin D ( P < 0.05), a disruptor of TJ but not influenced by wortamanin, a transcytosis inhibitor, suggesting that passive paracellular route via TJs is also involved in LKP and IQW transports but not transcytosis. In addition, siRNA was also used to knockdown the expression of PepT1 and significantly inhibited the transport ( P < 0.05), confirming that PepT1 is involved in transport process. Therefore, both passive paracellular route via TJ and active route via PepT1 coexist in the transport of antihypertensive LKP and IQW across Caco-2/HT29 coculture monolayers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
