“ PA (0.3 μM) transport through the blood‐brain barrier was significantly inhibited by probenecid, nonanoic acid, and biotin (all 0.25 mM), but not by penicillin G, pyruvate, β‐hydroxybutyrate.”
“However, the concentration of pantothenic acid in most foods and biological fluids is approximately 200 times the concentration of biotin ; theoretically, pantothenic acid might substantially reduce biotin transport via competition.”
“ Pantothenic acid at 10 to 1,000 nmol/L reduced biotin (475 pmol/L) uptake by less than 12% (P < 0.05).”
“Several structural analogs of pantothenic acid at 1,000 nmol/L reduced biotin transport by only 7 to 15% (P = 0.13).”
