Regional absorption of fexofenadine in rat intestine
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeExpression of Pgp along the GI-tract of rats increases towards distal segments. We assessed the in vivo relevance by determining the absorption of fexofenadine from proximal and distal parts of rat intestine. Since it has been reported that fexofenadine is also actively taken up by OATP/oatps, we quantified rat oatp1a5 and oatp2b1 mRNA in gut mucosa to elucidate a possible contribution of an oatp-mediated active uptake of fexofenadine.MethodsAbsorption was determined after drug administration into ligated segments of rat duodenum/upper jejunum and terminal ileum, respectively, in the absence and the presence of the Pgp blocker PSC-833s. Portal vein blood was sampled. Expression of Pgp in the mucosa of proximal and distal intestinal segments was analyzed by Western Blot. Oatp1a5 and oatp2b1 mRNA in intestinal mucosa was quantified by real-time qRT-PCR.ResultsPortal vein AUC0–90 min of fexofenadine was significantly higher after absorption from proximal segments compared to distal segments. Accordingly, Pgp expression was significantly lower in proximal compared to distal segments. Inhibition of Pgp by PSC-833 affected fexofenadine absorption only in distal segments resulting in AUC values comparable to the proximal data. Both oatp1a5 and oatp2b1 mRNA expression increased along the small intestine.ConclusionThe study demonstrates that Pgp is responsible for a limitation of fexofenadine absorption from distal small intestine. These findings are supported by the found pattern of expression for oatp1a5 and oatp2b1, showing that an active oatp-mediated uptake plays no role for fexofenadine absorption in rats.
