Administration of hight doses of retinyl acetate into rats caused an increase in content of retinol in liver tissue and kidney and retinyl palmitate in liver tissue, kidney and blood. The simultaneous administration of thyroxine decreased the accumulation of retinol and retinyl palmitate in liver tissue. At the same time, in kidney content of retinol was increased but content of retinol and retinyl palmitate in blood and retinyl palmitate in kidney did not differ from the values estimated in the control group. The simultaneous administration of retinyl acetate and hydrocortisone decreased the accumulation of retinol and retinyl palmitate in liver tissue, increased the content of vitamin A in blood and did not influence its content in kidney.

High heterogeneity in the size distribution of the micellar fraction from in vitro digestions: sample preparation and reporting recommendations.

Background: Understanding the size and surface charge (ζ-potential) of particles in the mixed micellar fraction produced by in vitro digestion is crucial to understand their cellular absorption and transport. The inconsistent presentation of micellar size data, often limited to average particle diameter, makes comparison of studies difficult. The present study aimed to assess different size data representations (mean particle diameter, relative intensity- or volume-weighted size distribution) to better understand physiological mixed micelle characteristics and to provide recommendations for size reporting and sample handling.

Food fortification is an effective strategy to combat vitamin A deficiency. Gari, a cassava-based West African food product, is an interesting product to fortify with vitamin A, but the low stability of vitamin A poses a challenge. We showed that toasted wheat bran can stabilise vitamin A as retinyl palmitate (RP) during storage of RP-fortified gari to a limited extent.

Intravaginal drug administration offers several advantages over other routes, primarily bypassing the initial stages of metabolism. Additionally, this route has demonstrated both local and systemic effects. Mucoadhesive polymeric systems can be utilized to prevent dose loss due to the mucous barriers and the formation of wet cavities.

Retinol and retinyl palmitate, with excellent whitening and antioxidant activities, are widely used as essential functional ingredients in transdermal preparations and skincare products. Herein, for the first time, the influence and underlying mechanisms of retinol and retinyl palmitate on the skin penetration of caffeine are investigated. It is found that the penetration of caffeine is very significantly enhanced by retinol and retinyl palmitate with 2.
