چکیده
We recently reported that Wuzhi tablet (WZ; Schisandra sphenanthera extract) can inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp)–mediated efflux and CYP3Amediated metabolism of tacrolimus (FK506) and thus increase the blood concentrations of FK506. Major active lignans of WZ include schisandrin A, schisandrin B, schisandrin C, schisandrol A, schisandrol B, and schisantherin A. Whether and how these six lignans affect the pharmacokinetics of FK506 remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of these lignans on the first-pass absorption and metabolism of FK506 and the involved mechanisms in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that whole-blood concentrations of FK506 were increased to different degrees following coadministration of the six lignans, respectively. Schisandrol B showed the strongest effect on the increase of the area under the concentration-time curve, the oral bioavailability, the gut processes affecting availability, and the hepatic availability of FK506. The reduction of intestinal first-pass effect contributed most to the increase in oral bioavailability of FK506 when coadministered with schisandrol B. In vitro transport experiment showed that schisandrin A, schisandrin B, and schisandrol B inhibited P-gp–mediated efflux of FK506. In vitro metabolism study showed that the inhibitory effect of these six lignans on FK506 metabolism was dose-dependent. In conclusion, the exposure of FK506 in rats was increased when coadministered with these lignans, and schisandrol B showed the strongest effect. Lignans of WZ inhibited P-gp–mediated efflux and CYP3A-mediated metabolism of FK506, and the reduction of intestinal first-pass affected by the lignans was the major cause of the increased FK506 oral bioavailability.

We present the implementation results of a shape segmentation technique and an associated shape matching method whose input is a point sample from the shape. The sample is allowed to be noisy in the sense that they may scatter around the boundary of the shape instead of lying exactly on it. The algorithm is simple and mostly combinatorial in that it builds a single data structure, the Delaunay ...
