The three-dimensional structure, digestibility, and immunological properties of bovine beta-lactoglobulin (beta-lg) are modified by heat treatments used in processing of liquid milk products. Because it is not known if such treatments also modify the intestinal transport properties of beta-lg, the transport of native and heat-denatured bovine beta-lg was investigated in experimental cell models using Caco-2 cells and M cells. Transport of beta-lg labeled with a fluorescent marker was followed with fluorometric measurements, electrophoretic analyses, and fluorescence microscopy. The data show that both cell types transported native beta-lg more efficiently than they did heat-denatured beta-lg. In addition, M cells transported native beta-lg more than Caco-2 cells. Transport of native and heat-denatured beta-lg was transcellular. The electrophoretic data also suggest that heat-denatured beta-lg may have degraded more than native beta-lg during the transport.
