Abstract
A solvent diffusion method was used to prepare pegylated asiatic acid (AA) loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (p-AA-NLC), and the ligated intestinal circulation model was established to observe the absorption and distribution in small intestine. The concentration of AA in bile after oral administration of p-AA-NLC was detected by HPLC in healthy SD rats to indirectly evaluate the oral absorption promoting effect of PEG-modified namoparticles. The results showed that the penetration of p-AA-NLC was enhanced significantly and the transport capacity was increased greatly in small intestinal after PEG modification. As compared with the normal nanoparticles (AA-NLC), the Cmax of the drug excretion was increased by 76%, the time to reach the peak (tmax ) was decreased and the elimination half-life t1/2 was doubled in the rats after oral administration of p-AA-NLC, and the AUC0→t was 1.5 times of the AA-NLC group, indicating that the oral bioavailability of AA-NLC was significantly improved by hydrophilic modification of PEG.
