Effects of intestinally absorbed thymidine on tritiated thymidine utilization.
Experimental evidence presented suggests that [3H]TdR can be rapidly and efficiently transported from the intestine to the systemic circulation. This pathway for thymidine transport may be physiologically important since administration of cold thymidine in the drinking water enhances the utilization of a parenterally injected dose of [3H]TdR in several body tissues of the mouse.
