| Research Abstract |
Concentrations of zinc in the tissue of the rat are significantly correlated with the expression levels of metallothionein-1 in the tissue, suggesting that zinc is bound with metallothioneins in the tissue. As the results of studies using the rat or the cultured cell, it is suggested that zinc is absorbed in part by a carrier-mediated transport. The significant relation was not observed between the activity of a specific transporter and the intestinal transport of zinc, indicating that some transporters are cooperatively involved in the intestinal absorption of zinc.
