[4-14C]-cholesterol-uptake by Caco-2 cells during a 2 h-incubation with ezetimibe, albumin, conglutin γ or phytate. Cells were cultured for 20–23 days before the uptake experiments. MEM + 2% bovine serum albumin without supplements served as control medium. Concentrations of test substances: 0.04 mg/ml ezetimibe, 5 mg/ml albumin, 0.06 mg/ml conglutin γ and 0.18 mg/ml phytate. Values are means (n = 3–5), with standard deviations. *Significantly different from control (P < 0.05, Student’s t-test).
