Trans-ferulic acid-4-β-glucoside (FAG) is a monomer extracted from Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata, which is a potential candidate for the prevention and treatment of the cold injury. To determine the concentration FAG in rats, it is essential to develop an ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method. The chromatographic separation was achieved by ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column(2.1×50mm, 1.7μm). A Xevo triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer was used to quantitative determination of FAG in the negative ion mode. The standard calibration curve was linear over the concentration range of 0.1-100 μg/mL and 0.0626-31.28 μg/g for rat plasma and liver tissue homogenates samples, separately. The inter-and intra-batch precision (RSD%) of the assay was ≤ 8.29% and accuracy (RE%) ranged from -7.41 to 10.99%. The matrix effect was between 92.99 and 102.39%. The oral absolute bioavailability of FAG was obtained as 1.80%. The results of tissue distribution suggested that FAG spread rarely in liver and brown adipose, which was not propitious to exert its ability to treat cold injury. In general, the above studies were significant to provide necessary information for further study.

The orally available novel small molecule drug ZWF is under preclinical development for an anticancer purpose. The present study aimed to assess the viability of developing ZWF as a form of oral formulation for clinical application based on the principles of biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics. The crucial physicochemical properties of ZWF were determined by in vitro assays. The in situ gastrointestinal absorption characteristics and in vivo pharmacokinetic behaviors of ZWF in rats were characterized. The solubility of ZWF showed a highly pH-dependent profile, decreasing from 25,392.89 to 20.48 μg/mL as the solution pH increased from 1.0 to 5.8. In PBS with a pH of 1.0 to 5.8, the LogP value of ZWF ranged from −2.35 to 2.20 and was gradually increased as the pH value increased. ZWF was partially absorbed in the stomach, and the favorable absorption sites were the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Pharmacokinetic studies showed that the AUC(0-t) and Cmax values of ZWF after its oral administration as a suspension prepared with 0.5% CMC-Na were increased by 18.97% and 40% than that with normal saline, providing a model oral formulation of ZWF with ideal bioavailability and system exposure in rats. From the perspective of oral absorption, ZWF possessed appealing qualities as a drug candidate and could be prepared as an oral preparation for clinical application. The present study has established a fundamental foundation for the development and quality evaluation of the ZWF oral formulations.

Supersaturation drug delivery system (SDDS) based on amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is a widely used strategy to improve oral absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs by achieving a supersaturated state where drug concentration is significantly higher than drug solubility. However, dissolved drugs tend to recrystallize in gastrointestinal (GI) tract if without effective stabilizing excipients. In this paper, well-recognized polymer (polyvinylpyrrolidone, PVP) and lipid (phosphatidylcholine, PC) excipients are combined as ASD carrier, aiming at investigating the effects on evolution of in vitro supersaturation and in vivo plasma concentration of a model poorly soluble drug indomethacin (IND). Fundamental aspects including polymer/lipid composition ratio, drug loading (DL) degree and administration dose were investigated. The in vitro dissolution profiles of ASDs were assessed by supersaturation degree, duration, maximum achievable drug concentration and dose-normalized efficiency, and correlated with in vivo pharmacokinetic data. Results showed that both in vitro and in vivo concentration-time profiles of IND were significantly varying with abovementioned factors. Solution viscosity, solid-state properties and morphology of ASDs were related to the results. This study revealed fundamental mechanisms of PVP/PC mixture effect on IND supersaturation and oral bioavailability, demonstrating that polymer/lipid mixture could be used as a promising carrier to alter supersaturation profile and oral bioavailability of SDDS products.
