“…Because the oral absorption of acitretin is variable,9 it is envisaged that complexation of the drug with CD could improve this situation, as demonstrated in a similar study with ATRA 27. Furthermore, HPBCD could work as a suitable parenteral carrier for retinoids as previously published 27,28. The present study confirms that both HPBCD and RMBCD form stable complexes with acitretin.…”

“…The study design and the animal handling protocol of this pharmacokinetic study were modified from several previous studies (21)(22)(23) and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the National University of Singapore. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) were supplied by the Laboratory Animal Center of the National University of Singapore.…”
Aqueous solubility barrier might affect the speed but not the extent of resveratrol absorption. Further, dose manipulation (up to 50 mg kg(-1)) did not have a significant impact on the oral bioavailability of resveratrol.
“…In the Harland strain of mice, subcutaneously administered RAG was only slowly metabolized to RA and there were no adverse signs of toxicity after chronic daily dosing with RAG for about three months [12]. Another study found that intravenously administered RAG was not extensively hydrolyzed to RA in SD rats [13]. Two recent studies, one carried out by administering RAG by IP injection in pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats, and the other carried out by topical application on swine skin showed that RAG was much less toxic than RA [14,15].…”

“…The pharmacology and metabolism of parenterally administered RAG is somewhat known [11][12][13]17]. However, if RAG is to be administered orally, there is very little information about its absorption and metabolism in vitamin A sufficient humans and animals.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
