Everted intestinal sac models were used to investigate the intestinal absorption of the 4 alkaloids(berberine, palmatine, coptisine, and epiberberine) in Fuzheng Xiaozheng Fang(FZ) at different intestine segments. The absorption parameters of each component were calculated; SPSS 20.0 software was used to analyze the data and evaluate the absorption characteristics at different intestinal segments. The results showed that all the four active ingredients conformed to zero-order absorption rate. There was significant difference in absorption rate constant (Ka) between the four ingredients at low dose and medium and high dose groups(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in Ka between medium dose and high dose. The absorption mechanization of four ingredients presented two absorption manners: positive diffusion and passive absorption. The absorptive amount of 4 alkaloids in ileum was slightly greater than that of jejunum, but no significant differences were observed, which indicated that these four alkaloids had no specific absorption windows in intestinal segment.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major threat to human health due to its high lethality. Our previous studies suggested that Fuzheng Xiaozheng prescription (FZXZP), an effective Chinese medicine, demonstrated significant suppressive effects on HCC. However, its underlying mechanism remains largely unclear.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Fuzheng Xiaozheng prescription (FZXZP), a traditional Chinese medicine, which was derived from the famous decoction, Sanjiasan, in the book of "Wenyilun" in Ming dynasty. Due to its function of invigorating the circulation of blood in Chinese medicine, it was usually used for treating the liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), etc. Clinical application found that FZXZP exhibited satisfactory therapeutic effects in HCC treatments.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Fuzheng Xiaozheng prescription (FZXZP) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that was derived from Sanjiasan, a famous decoction documented in the book of Wenyilun in Ming dynasty. Based on our years' clinic application, FZXZP demonstrated satisfactory therapeutic effects in cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatments. However, the underlying mechanisms are still largely unknown.
