Effects of Some Non-ionic Surfactants on Transepithelial Permeability in Caco-2 Cells

Abstract: The effects of the non-ionic surfactants polysorbate 20, polysorbate 60, polysorbate 85, cholesteryl poly (24) oxyethylene ether (Solulan C24) and the lanolin-based poly (16) oxyethylene ether (Solulan 16) on the epithelial integrity of monolayers of human intestinal epithelial (Caco-2) cells has been studied using metformin as a model drug. The aim was to identify the surfactants and their optimal concentrations capable of enhancing drug transport while causing no, or only minor, cellular damage. Effects on c… Show more

“…The P-80 diet induced NAFLD and intestinal inflammation and was correlated with a significant reduction in acetate, propionate and butyrate concentration in fecal samples. P-80 also altered bile acid levels, which influences microbiota composition [27]. The serum metabolites of P-80 fed mice and control mice were analyzed by LC-MS. Interestingly the level of DCA a secondary bile acid carried out by gut bacteria such as Clostridium Cluster XI and XIV was substantially increased.…”

“…Imbalance in the composition of the intestinal microbiota (known as dysbiosis) can be caused by immune deficits and dietary influences [27]. We investigated the possibility that intestinal bacteria play a key role in NAFLD development.…”

“…In addition, Tween 20 has been reported to increase tight junction permeability, leading to enhanced drug absorption by the paracellular pathway. 31 The pharmacokinetic data in male rats imply that PLHloaded SMEDDS developed in this study could improve the dissolution and absorption of PLH.…”

“…In this sense it was also observed that the increase of the cytotoxic effect was dependent on surfactant concentration but not on the exposition time. This finding was due to the fact that the cytotoxic action of unpurified NSVs was determined by the presence of the free molecules of surfactants, which were able to exert immediately their cytotoxic action during the incubation period by noticeably perturbing the cellular membranes (Dimitrijevic et al, 2000;Lin et al, 2007) and hence causing the cellular death. This hypothesis was strongly supported by the evidence that HLF cells treated with the free surfactants showed a greater (P<0.001) cytotoxic insult than those treated with unpurified non-ionic surfactant vesicles.…”
