Caco-2细胞模型——药物吸收研究的有效“工具”

吸收过程是决定口服药物生物利用度的重要因素 ,然而很多药物的吸收机制还不明确。Caco 2细胞模型是目前最好的体外吸收模型 ,在药物的吸收过程及吸收机制的研究方面有广泛的应用 ,尤其在中药吸收研究方面 ,Caco 2细胞模型的应用成为目前的热点。另外 ,Caco 2细胞模型在药物代谢方面也有应用。因此 ,Caco 2细胞模型将成为药物吸收研究的重要手段 ,有助于加快新药筛选和开发的速度。

Caco-2 cell model--an effective tool for the research of drug absorption

The absorption process is an important factor in determining the bioavailability of orally administered drugs. however, the absorption mechanism of many drugs is not clear. Caco-2 cell model is the best in vitro absorption model nowadays. It is widely used in the research on drug absorption process and absorption mechanism, especially in the aspect of traditional Chinese medicine absorption, the use of Caco-2 cell model has become the hot spot recently. Mo- reover, Caco-2 cell model is also applied in the research on drug metabolism. Therefore, Caco-2 cell model will become an important method in the research of drug absorption, and will be helpful to accelerate the process of new drug screening and development.
