Abstract

Peptide transporters that expressed in the intestinal brush border membrane (PEPT1) and peptide transporter that expressed in the basolateral membrane were the two subtypes of peptide transporter (PEPT) . They played an essential role in absorption of oligopeptides and peptidomimetic drugs. PEPT1 was a key target for approach of prodrug. Not well absorbed drugs could be appropriately designed in the form of di-/ tripeptide analogues to be well absorbed across the intestinal brush border membrane via PEPT1 and thus increase the valuable oral bioavailability.
