Role of third serum vitamin B 12 binding protein in vitamin B 12 transport

Role of third serum vitamin B 12 binding protein in vitamin B 12 transport

I Chanarin et al. Br Med J. .

Abstract

A third vitamin B(12) binding protein present in normal serum has been shown to participate in transport of labelled vitamin B(12) absorbed from the gut. All three vitamin B(12) binding proteins in serum were labelled at the same time after oral administration of vitamin B(12), implying that "free" vitamin B(12) reached the portal blood from the gut mucosa.
