Evaluation of the effect of procyanidin on drug permeability on different intestinal mucosa of rats with Ussing Chamber in vitro / 国际药学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of procyanidin on permeability of rodamin 123(R123)and fluorescein sodium (FS)via different intestinal mucosa in rat. Methods The cumulative permeability and the apparent permeability cofficient(Papp)of R123 and FS via rat intestinal membranes at the procyanidin concentration of 20 mg/L was evaluated by the method of Ussing Chamber. The concentrations of R123 and FS in the receptor samples were determined by fluorospectrophotometry. Results The absorptive directed permeability of R123 across all membranes was increased by co-administration of procyanidins, whereas that of the secretive direct was decreased. Compared with control group, the secretive directed permeability of R123 was significantly decreased in colon (P<0.01). Conclusion Procyanidin could inhibit the secretion of R123 on different intestinal mucosa which might be related to the inhibition of P-gp function.
