Systemic bile acid homeostasis plays an important role in human health. In this study, a physiologically based kinetic (PBK) model that includes microbial bile acid deconjugation and intestinal bile acid reuptake via the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) was applied to predict the systemic plasma bile acid concentrations in human upon oral treatment with the antibiotic tobramycin. Tobramycin was previously shown to inhibit intestinal deconjugation and reuptake of bile acids and to affect bile acid homeostasis upon oral exposure of rats.

Despite the remarkable biological effects of berberine (BBR), particularly on fertility, its bioavailability is low. This study aims to test the effectiveness of novel nanostructured biloalbuminosomes (BILS) of BBR and its metabolite berberrubine (M1) in treatment of testicular and prostatic lesions. M1 was semi-synthesized from BBR using microwave-assisted reaction.

The formation of a biomolecular corona on nanoparticles in blood is a well-known phenomenon influencing in vivo performance. Analogous phenomena in other biological fluids, such as the formation of a gastrointestinal (GI) corona, remain under-investigated. The ingestion of medicines leads to the generation of drug particles in the GI fluids.

The aim of this study was to prepare sodium glycocholate liposomes (SGC-Lip) encapsulating semaglutide (Sml) to improve oral bioavailability and better exert hypoglycemic effect. In this paper, SGC-Lip was prepared by reverse-phase evaporation method with particle size around 140 nm, potential around -27 mV, rounded morphology and better stability. The hypoglycemic and intestinal uptake effects of SGC-Lip and cholesterol-containing liposomes (CH-Lip) were comparatively investigated in rats, and the oral safety of SGC-Lip was examined by cytotoxicity assay.
