Site-dependent contributions of P-glycoprotein and CYP3A to cyclosporin A absorption, and effect of dexamethasone in small intestine of mice.

چکیده
We examined whether the oral bioavailability of cyclosporin A is controlled primarily by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or CYP3A in the small intestine. In situ loop method was used to evaluate the uptake of cyclosporin A (40nmol) at the upper and lower intestine of wild-type and mdr1a/1b knockout mice treated or not treated with dexamethasone (75mg/kg/day, 7 days, i.p.). Expression of CYP3A mRNA in the control group was higher in the upper than the lower intestine, while that of the multidrug resistance-1a (mdr1a) mRNA was in the opposite order. Dexamethasone administration potently induced CYP3A and mdr1a mRNAs in the lower and upper intestine, respectively. At 45min after cyclosporin A administration into an upper intestinal loop of the control group of wild-type mice, the ratio of residual cyclosporin A to dose did not differ significantly from that of mdr1a/1b knockout mice, whereas in dexamethasone-treated wild-type mice, the residual ratio was increased significantly. The ratio of the cyclosporin A metabolite M17 to cyclosporin A in portal venous blood at an upper intestinal loop of mdr1a/1b knockout mice was much higher than that a lower intestinal loop. The M17/cyclosporin A ratio of portal venous blood at a lower intestinal loop in mdr1a/1b knockout mice was increased significantly by dexamethasone treatment. These results suggest that, under physiological conditions, the oral bioavailability of cyclosporin A is mainly controlled by CYP3A in the upper intestine, rather than liver, but when P-gp is induced by steroid, the intestinal absorption of cyclosporin A may be inhibited.

Etoposide, a widely used anticancer drug, exhibits low and variable oral bioavailability mainly because of being substrate for the efflux transporter, P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Therefore, the present study was aimed to investigate the effect of D-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) and PEG 400 as P-gp inhibitors on the intestinal absorption of etoposide.

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is a major determinant of the metabolism of many drugs, including important anticancer drugs, with sometimes profound impact on therapeutic efficacy and toxic side effects. To study in vivo CYP3A(4) functions, we have generated and characterized transgenic mice with functional expression of human CYP3A4 cDNA in the liver. Two transgenic lines displayed substantial, ...

Background: The intestinal absorption of fatty acids may take place through simple diffusion as well as through protein carrier mediated transport, although the relative importance of each pathway is dependent on the ambient condition of entrocytes. Cad-mium ion influences the absorption of fatty acids in entrocytes. However, the effect of cadmium ion on the absorption of fatty acids in differe...
