Substrate Delivery Mechanisms

Meaning

Substrate Delivery Mechanisms refer to the complex physiological systems and pathways responsible for the efficient transport of essential precursor molecules, such as amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, from the digestive tract or storage sites to the specific cells and organelles where they are required for metabolic processes. Optimized delivery is fundamental for hormonal health, as the synthesis of all hormones, neurotransmitters, and cellular structures depends entirely on the timely availability of these raw materials.
