Dipeptide absorption in man

Hellier, M. D., Holdsworth, C. D., McColl, I., Perrett, D.

A quantitative perfusion method has been used to study intestinal absorption of two dipeptides—glycyl-glycine and glycyl-l-alanine—in normal subjects. In each case, the constituent amino acids...

The effect of amino acids and dipeptides on sodium and water absorption in man

Hellier, M. D., Thirumalai, C., Holdsworth, C. D.

A perfusion technique has been used to quantitate the effect of the amino acids glycine and alanine and the dipeptides glycyl-glycine and glycyl-L-alanine on sodium and water absorption from the...
