“On the other hand, the intestinal absorption of thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), which is transported by a carrier-mediated process, was also enhanced by chemical modification with lauric acid.”
“These findings indicate that chemical modification of TRH with lauric acid might be a useful approach for improving the intestinal absorption of this peptide.”
“These results suggest that chemical modification of TRH with lauric acid may not only increase the lipophilicity of TRH but also reduce the degradation of TRH, resulting in the increased plasma radioactivity of TRH.”
