Ergothioneine benefits

Due to its highly hydrophilic amphipathic ionic structure, it isdifficult for EGT itself to cross the phospholipid bilayer of thecell membrane.EGT can be transported via a specializedprotein, OCTN-1.✓ OCTN-1 is a powerful sodium-driven plasma membraneuptake transporter. In all vertebrates, the ability to uptake,distribute and retain EGT is entirely dependent on theexpression of this highly specific
