The Xenobiotic and Nutrient Disposition and Action [XNDA] Study Section reviews applications related to the disposition of xenobiotics and supraphysiologic (SP) levels of nutrients, and the study of their mechanisms of action in normal and pathological conditions of the digestive system, as well as in multi-organ systems.

Specific areas covered by XNDA:

• Gastrointestinal and/or hepatic disposition of xenobiotics and SP nutrients, including processes of absorption. biotransformation, distribution and excretion.
• Structure-function relationships for enzymes/transporters/receptors involved in SP nutrient and/or xenobiotic disposition and effects.
• Role of genetics and genomics in disposition and effects of SP nutrients and xenobiotics. Theoretical, mechanistic, and/or integrated studies of kinetics and/or dynamics of SP nutrients and xenobiotics.
• In vitro and in vivo models that study the molecular basis of gene-environment interactions related to the digestive system or multi-organ systems.
• Mechanisms of action of xenobiotics and SP nutrients, including toxicological and/or pharmacological effects on the digestive system or multi-organ systems.
