A study was conducted to evaluate a net value of exogenous (dietary) protein nutrition in rats fed a [¹⁵N]-labeled soy protein isolate (SPI). Although [¹⁵N]-SPI-derived nitrogen reached a plateau 2 hr after feeding, it accounted for only a half of the total nitrogen in the small intestine. ¹⁵N was confirmed that was normally transported to liver, kidney, spleen, and brain. The present study reveals the large degree of participation of endogenous proteins in dietary SPI during small-intestinal digestion.
