Fig. 3. Effect of a physiological acceptor of vitamin E on RRR-α-T apical efflux by differentiated Caco-2 TC-7 cell monolayers.
Cells were enriched with RRR-α-T (see experimental procedures), and the apical side then received either FBS-free medium (○) or FBS-free medium containing tocopherol-free mixed micelles as physiologiocal acceptor (●). The basolateral side received FBS-free medium. Data are means ± SD of 3 assays.
