    Abstract:
    Cajaninstilbene acid (CSA) exerts wide pharmacological activities, such as anti-inflammation, hypoglycaemic activity, analgesic effect and cognition improvement. However, it underwent severe phase II metabolism mediated by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after oral administration, affecting its oral bioavailability. In the present study, we utilize UGT inhibitory excipient containing self-microemulsion (SME) delivery system to reduce the production of glucuronide metabolites and increase its oral bioavailability. The present results showed that although similar properties in physiochemical, cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, absorption and transport across rat everted gut sacs between SME-1 (inhibitory excipient containing SME) and SME-2 (control SME, without inhibitory excipient), an improved absolute bioavailability of 57.3 % was conferred by SME-1, significantly higher than the value of 35.4 % by SME-2 and 34.0 % by free CSA. Noticeably, the significantly lower AUC value of CSA glucuronide was determined in rats treated with SME-1 than those either treated with SME-2 or free CSA. Thus, the ability of SME-1 to enhance oral bioavailability of CSA is mainly attributed to the inhibition of phase II metabolism in the GI tract.
