Because the two pathways dont compete for the same receptors, researchers have noted this as a mechanistically distinct pairing worth studying one acting directly on adipocytes, the other acting systemically through growth hormone signaling
This complex process means that conditions affecting the stomach or intestines can significantly impair B12 absorption, including pernicious anaemia, atrophic gastritis, previous gastric surgery, coeliac disease, Crohn's disease, and long-term use of certain medications (such as metformin, proton pump inhibitors, and H2 antagonists)
