(A) Effects of various intestinal transport inhibitors on the relative apparent permeability of ODSF across a Caco-2 cell monolayer. ***P<0.001 compared to the Papp of ODSF in the absence of all inhibitors (untreated control). (B) Prediction of a role for P-gp in intestinal absorption of ODSF. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001 compared to the Papp (A to B) of ODSF in the absence of all inhibitors (untreated control); #P<0.05, ###P<0.001 compared to the Papp (B to A) of ODSF in the absence of all inhibitors; $$$P<0.001 compared to the Papp (A to B) of ODSF in the absence of all inhibitors except Cys A. (C) Papp values with or without EGTA, in the presence or absence of all inhibitors except Cys A. **P<0.01, compared to the Papp without EGTA, in the absence of all inhibitors except Cys A; ###P<0.001 compared to the Papp after treatment with EGTA, in the absence of all inhibitors except Cys A; $P<0.05 compared to the Papp without EGTA, in the presence of all inhibitors except Cys A.
Notes: Statistics: one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey multiple comparisons test. Each value is mean±standard deviation (n=4 for each group).
