Background/Aim: Riboflavin transport in enterocytes is mediated by three translocators:
RFVT3 located on the apical membrane, and RFVT1 and RFVT2 on the basolateral …

The retention and cellular internalization of drug delivery systems and theranostics for
cancer therapy can be improved by targeting molecules. Since an increased uptake of …

The first biochemical and spectroscopic characterization of a purified membrane transporter
for riboflavin (vitamin B 2) is presented. The riboflavin transporter RibU from the bacterium …

Riboflavin is an important water soluble vitamin (B2) required for metabolic reactions,
normal cellular growth, differentiation and function. Mammalian brain cells cannot …

Homeostasis of riboflavin should be maintained by transporters. Previous in vitro studies
have elucidated basic information about riboflavin transporter RFVT3 encoded by SLC52A3 …

The role of riboflavin in cell maintenance and growth, and the mechanism by which it is
absorbed into various human tissues and cell lines has been extensively studied over the …

In isolated rat enterocytes, both normoenergized (normal) and de-energized with rotenone,
riboflavin intracellular metabolic processes, operating in association with a membrane …

The present study was aimed at kinetically characterizing the newly found carrier-mediated
riboflavin transport system in the rat colon, comparing it with that in the small intestine, and …

This study addresses the transport mechanism of riboflavin (vitamin B2) across intestinal
epithelium in the presence and absence of pharmacologically active compounds. A …

Riboflavin (RF), a water-soluble vitamin, is essential for normal cellular functions, growth,
and development. Normal RF body homeostasis depends on intestinal absorption and …
