RESUMEN
The aim of this study was to develop a sustained release converse thermosensitive hydrogel for intra-articular injection using chitosan-glycerol-borax as matrix, its physical properties and biocompatibility were investigated. Taking gelation time and gelation condition as index, the influence of concentration of chitosan, ratio of chitosan to glycerol, pH on physical properties of hydrogel were investigated. And then the in vitro drug release, rheological properties and biocompatibility were studied. The thermosensitive hydrogel flows easily at room temperature and turns to gelation at body temperature, which can certainly prolong the release of drug and has good biocompatibility.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the activities of anti-inflammatory and analgesic of the total flavonoids extraction from Oxytropis falcate Bunge (FEO) after transdermal administration. The pharmacokinetics and absolute bioavailability of FEO in rat, furthermore, was studied. Firstly, the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of the FEO were studied by xylene-induced ear edema, adjuvant-induced joint inflammation law in rats, acetic acid-induced writhing and hot-plate tests in mice. Secondly, we developed a sensitive and specific HPLC method to analyze 2', 4'-dihydroxychalcone (TFC, the mainly ingredient of FEO) in rat plasma to study the pharmacokinetic of TEC. The results showed FEO has anti-inflammatory and analgesic property in a dose-dependent manner, and that the high dose group (90.6 mg/kg) of FEO appeared more significantly effective than the positive drug. From the pharmacokinetic studies of TFC in rats, we got the main pharmacokinetic parameters of TFC, providing a basis for the future studies in clinic.

The aim of this study was to improve the oral bioavailability of Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) through preparing G. biloba extract phospholipid complexes (GBP) and G. biloba extract solid dispersions (GBS). Firstly we prepared the GBP and GBS and studied their physicochemical properties by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dissolution. Then we studied the pharmacokinetic characteristics and bioavailability in rats. The results showed that the bioavailability of quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin in rats was increased remarkably after oral administration of GBP and GBS comparing with GBE. The bioavailabilities of GBP increased more than that of GBS.

To explore the mechanism of the absorption enhancement of borneol, the effect of borneol on the intestinal absorption and the pharmacokinetics of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate after oral administration were investigated. In situ intestinal recirculation was performed to study the effect of various concentrations of borneol on the absorption of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate at duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon. After oral administration of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate, the mixture of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate and borneol and the mixture of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate and verapamil in rats, the concentrations of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate in plasma were determined by RP-HPLC at predesigned time. The pharmacokinetic parameters were compared based on the results of the three animal experiments, and analyzed with software program 3p97. The result showed that tetramethylpyrazine phosphate could be absorbed at all of the four intestinal segments with increasing absorption amount per unit as follows: colon > duodenum > jejunum > ileum, but without saturation, which demonstrated that tetramethylpyrazine phosphate was absorbed via simple diffusion. Borneol could enhance the intestinal absorption of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate, however, not in proportion. There was no obvious difference between the test group and the control group when 10 microg x mL(-1) borneol was added (P > 0.05), while when the concentration comes to 25 microg x mL(-1) and 50 microg x mL(-1), significant differences were observed (P < 0.05). Borneol and verapamil did enhance the bioavailability of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate after oral administration in rats. The enhancing effect of borneol showed only when the concentration came to a certain level but with no specific sites existed in the intestine. One of the mechanisms of borneol on the enhancing effect on absorption of tetramethylpyrazine phosphate might be the inhibition of the metabolism of CYP 3A and exocytosis of P-gp.
