Absorptive and secretory transport of selected artemisinin derivatives across Caco-2 cell monolayers
(Bentham Science, 2018)Background: Malaria continues to be a major health concern and affects more than 200 million people a year. Drugs currently used for treatment of malaria are increasingly rendered ineffectual by the ongoing emergence of ... -
Herb-drug pharmacokinetic interactions: transport and metabolism of indinavir in the presence of selected herbal products
(MDPI, 2015)Patients receiving anti-retroviral drug treatment are sometimes simultaneously taking herbal remedies, which may result in pharmacokinetic herb-drug interactions. This study aimed to determine if pharmacokinetic interactions ... -
In vitro drug permeation enhancement potential of aloe gel materials
(Bentham Science, 2012)Aloe vera gel previously showed the ability to increase the bioavailability of vitamins and to enhance the in vitro transport of a macromolecular drug across intestinal epithelial cell monolayers. The purpose of this study ... -
Intestinal drug absorption enhancement by Aloe vera gel and whole leaf extract: in vitro investigations into the mechanisms of action
(MDPI, 2019)The co-administration of absorption enhancing agents with macromolecular drugs (e.g., protein and peptide drugs) has been identified as a means to improve the oral bioavailability of these drugs. Absorption-enhancing agents ... -
Permeation of PLGA nanoparticles across different in vitro models
(Bentham Science, 2012)Many drug delivery systems have indicated improvement in delivery of various drug molecules and among these biodegradable and biocompatible polymers such as poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) have been shown to enhance ...
