OBJECTIVEDehydroandrographolide (DP) from Andrographis paniculata (Burm. F.) Nees is a potential anticancer agent. This study aimed to investigate the oral bioavailability and intestinal disposition of DP to provide useful information for the development of DP as a new candidate anticancer drug.

METHODSThe pharmacokinetics of DP was evaluated in rats, and its intestinal disposition was determined using cultured Caco-2 cells and a single-pass rat intestinal perfusion model.

RESULTSThe oral bioavailability of DP was 11.92% in rats. The apparent permeability coefficient (P(app)) of DP from the basolateral side (B) to the apical side (A) (5.37×10(-5) cm/s) of the Caco-2 model was roughly equal to that from A to B (4.56×10(-5) cm/s), suggesting no involvement of the efflux transporter(s). In the perfusion model, no significant difference was found in the effective permeability (P*(eff)) of DP between the 4 segments of the intestine. No significant metabolism of DP was detected in the intestinal perfusates. The amount of DP found in the bile was only about 0.1% of the absorbed amount. The P*(eff) and bile amounts of DP were not significantly increased by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor or breast cancer resistant protein (BCRP) inhibitor (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe bioavailability of DP was 11.92% in rats. DP has good absorption and metabolism stability in the intestine. The efflux transporters such as P-gp and BCRP do not participate in DP transport.

Objective:To compare the safety apnea time during endotracheal intubation in the patients from different altitudes using oxygen reserve index (ORI).Methods:Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰor Ⅱ patients, aged 18-70 yr, undergoing elective surgery requiring tracheal intubation under general anesthesia and requiring catheterization via arterial puncture, were included.Among the patients, 30 cases who had long lived at an altitude of 1 500-3 000 m in Qinghai Province People′s Hospital (Xining, 2 200 m above sea level) served as middle-altitude group, and 30 Tibetan patients who had long lived at an altitude >3 000-meter area in Yushu People′s Hospital (Yushu, 3 600 m above sea level) served as high-altitude group.The patients were preoxygenated for 5 min before induction of anesthesia, and then endotracheal intubation was performed with a video laryngoscope.Before induction (T 0), at 3 min of pre-oxygenation (T 1), and at 5 min of pre-oxygenation (T 2), arterial blood was collected for blood gas analysis, and PaO 2 was recorded, ORI and SpO 2 were simultaneously recorded.The time from the beginning of intubation to the time when ORI was decreased to 0 and the time from the beginning of intubation to the time when SpO 2 was decreased to 98% were recorded. Results:Compared with middle-altitude group, the time from the beginning of intubation to the time when ORI was decreased to 0 and the time from the beginning of intubation to the time when SpO 2 was decreased to 98% were significantly prolonged ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in SpO 2, ORI and PaO 2 at each time point in high-altitude group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The safety apnea time during endotracheal intubation is longer in the patients at high altitudes (altitude > 3000 m) than those at the moderate altitudes (altitude 1500-3000 m).
