Mucosal permeability of water‐soluble drugs in the equine jejunum: a preliminary investigation

Abstract: Ussing chambers have been used to study the mucosal permeability of drugs in humans, rats and other species. This data can then be used to develop in vitro/in vivo correlations (IVIVC) for drugs based on the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS). Due to the poor oral bioavailability of many drugs in the horse, this method may be useful for screening drugs before development to determine if they warrant further study. Cephalexin (CPX), marbofloxacin (MAR), metronidazole (MTZ) and fluconazole (FCZ) were c… Show more

“…Due to the high lipophilicity of DIM-P and likely passive transcellular mechanism of absorption, we attempted to derive a potential In Vitro–In Vivo Correlation (IVIVC) between the in vitro permeability, and the oral absorption pharmacokinetics (Davis et al, 2006). We employed deconvolution of i.v.…”

“…No studies about metronidazole permeability in Caco-2 cells were identified. A mucosal permeability study of several drugs, including metronidazole, was performed in the equine jejunum 32 and metronidazole exhibited unusual high permeability when compared with the other drugs (cephalexin, marbofloxacin, and fluconazole), with effective permeability (P eff ) around 9 × 10 −5 cm/s. According to the authors, the high permeability of metronidazole may be due to a direct cytotoxic effect on the mucosal epithelial cells, and also to absorption by paracellular transport, in addition to transcellular transport.…”

“…The only metronidazole intestinal permeability study found, performed in equine jejunum, showed the drug to be highly permeable. 32 No permeability studies of metronidazole in Caco-2 cells were identified, but the demonstration of complete absorption in humans is preferred for BCSbased biowaiver applications. 4 In addition, metronidazole undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism, [68][69][70] indicating also high GI permeability.…”

“…We have justified this approach because a comparison of drug absorption across human colonic epithelium cell layers (Caco-2 cell line) to absorption across canine colon tissue did not show a relationship (19). The Ussing chamber technique, which has been evaluated for other veterinary species (20), has not been applicable for canine studies (21) because of the fragility of the tissue. Membrane damage that occurs prevents permeability measurements using this technique in dogs (21).…”
