Study on effect mechanism of bioadhesive polymers on panax notoginseng sapo-nins′s absorption by microarray technology / 药学实践杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the mechanism of bioadhesive materials(Chitosan,Carbomer and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose(HPMC))on promoting panax notoginseng saponins(PNS)′s oral absorption by microarray.Methods The study was divided into four groups.PNS,PNS-chitosan,PNS-carbomer and PNS-HPMC,microarray were used to investigate the change of genes expression level affiliated to the solute carrier transporter(SLC)and the ATP-binding cassette(ABC)after transpor-ting across Caco-2 cell monolayer,to explore the mechanism of bioadhesive materials′effect on PNS′s absorption.Results Comparing with PNS group ，chitosan and carbomer could significantly increase gene expression level affiliated to SLC transporter ，chitosan could decrease multi-resistant genes and P-gp efflux genes expression level affiliated to ABC transporter . HPMC had no obvious effect on SLC and ABC transporter .Conclusion Chitosan and carbomer increase PNS′s oral due to genes change affiliated to SLC and ABC transporter that could promote absorption and inhibit efflux .The promotion mechanism of HPMC absorption was that it could prolong retention time on absorption site .
