RESUMEN
Genistein (GS) exhibits various biological activities, but its clinical application is limited because of the low bioavailability. In this study, a GS-adenine pharmaceutical complex was prepared through solvent evaporation to improve the bioavailability of GS, and a molecular model of a two-component supramolecular pharmacological transport mechanism was established. The structure of GS-adenine was characterized, in addition, interaction patterns between GS and adenine were investigated using density functional theory. The results showed that the solubility of GS-adenine was five times higher than that of GS, and the cumulative release rate of GS-adenine was 86 %. The results of fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamic simulations showed that GS-adenine bound to the Sudlow's site I of HSA mainly through hydrophobic interactions. This study provides a useful reference for synthesizing pharmaceutical complexes to improve solubility and for exploring the mechanism of multiple pharmaceutical components inâ vivo.

Stellera chamaejasme L. is a traditional Chinese medicine with a long history to treat stubborn skin ulcer, and it also has antiviral and antitumor effects. Neochamaejasmine B (NCB), Neochamaejasmine A (NCA) and Chamaechromone (CMC) are the major components in dried roots of Stellera chamaejasme L.. Our studies suggested that NCB, NCA and CMC are inhibitors of Organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1). OAT1 is encoded by solute carrier family 22 member 6 gene (SLC22A6) in humans and plays a critical role in the organic anion drug uptake and excretion in the kidney. Lamivudine is the typical substrate of OAT1 and is frequently used in combination with other antiviral drugs in clinical antiviral treatments. The aim of this study is to investigate the interaction and its mechanism between these bi-flavone components in Stellera chamaejasme L. and lamivudine via OAT1 both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, the uptake studies in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells overexpressing OAT1 suggested that NCB inhibited the uptake of 6-CFL and lamivudine.Similar results were obtained for NCA and CMC. NCB was a noncompetitive and competitive inhibitor interaction with OAT1. IC50 values of NCB, NCA and CMC for inhibiting OAT1-mediated lamivudine transport were 2.46, 8.35 and 0.61 µmol·L-1, respectively. In vivo, the pharmacokinetic results of lamivudine in rats showed that the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞) and maximal plasma concentration (Cmax) of lamivudine after co-administration is increased 2.94-fold and 1.87-fold, respectively, compared to lamivudine administration alone. The results of interactions between lamivudine and these bi-flavone components in Stellera chamaejasme L. extracts via OAT1 in vivo are consistent with studies in vitro. The inhibition of OAT1-mediated uptake of lamivudine by NCB, NCA and CMC is the possible mechanism for Stellera chamaejasme L. extracts improving the oral bioavailability of lamivudine in rats.

Ginkgolic acids (GAs) in natural product Ginkgobiloba L. are the pharmacological active but also toxic components. Two compounds, GA (C15:1) and GA (C17:1) are the most abundant GAs. In this study, several in vitro and in vivo models were applied to investigate transport mechanism of GAs. A rapid and sensitive LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of GA (C15:1) and GA (C17:1) was applied to analyze the biological specimens. The Papp(APâBL) values of GA (C15:1) and GA (C17:1) were 1.66-2.13×10(-)(6)cm/s and 1.34-1.85×10(-)(6)cm/s determined using MDCK and MDCK-MDR1 cell monolayers, respectively. The Papp(BLâAP) were remarkably greater in the MDCK-MDR1 cell line, which were 6.77-11.2×10(-)(6)cm/s for GA (C15:1) and 4.73-5.15×10(-)(6)cm/s for GA (C17:1). Similar results were obtained in LLC-PK1 and LLC-PK1-BCRP cell monolayers. The net efflux ratio of GA (C15:1) and GA (C17:1) in both cell models was greater than 2 and markedly reduced by the presence of Cyclosporin A (CsA) or GF120918, inhibitors of P-gp and BCRP, suggesting that GAs are P-gp and BCRP substrates. The results from a rat bioavailability study also showed that co-administrating CsA intravenously (20mg/kg) could significantly increase GA (C15:1) and GA (C17:1) AUC0-t by 1.46-fold and 1.53-fold and brain concentration levels of 1.43-fold and 1.51-fold, respectively, due to the inhibition of P-gp and BCRP efflux transporters by CsA.

This study is designed to obtain recombinant human acetylcholinesterase (rhAChE) and apply it in screening acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. The rhAChE was overexpressed in HEK293 cells transfected by plasmid of pCMV-AChE with the cationic liposome and rhAChE was found to be secreted into cell culture medium. AChE activity was assayed according to modified Ellman method to obtain kinetic parameters. IC so50 values for donepezil compounds of rhAChE were calculated to determine their activities of inhibition. The results showed that Km value was 151.9 micromol.L-1 donepezil inhibited rhAChE in a mixed competitive-noncompetitive way (Ki= 16.03 nmol.L-1, Ki = 18.36 nmol.L-1) and that most new compounds tested exhibited high activities of inhibition on rhAChE. The study suggests that rhAChE is available to be applied in screening AChE inhibitors in vitro.
