METHODS: The complex of HA-PL (named Haplex) was prepared by film dispersion and sonication method, its physico-chemical properties were identified by infrared spectra and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The oral absorption of Haplex was studied. Thirty-two healthy rats were divided into 4 groups randomly: (1) a normal saline (NS) control group; (2) an HA group; (3) a mixture group and (4) a Haplex group. After intragastric administration, the concentration of HA in serum was determined. RESULTS: The physico-chemical properties of Haplex were different from HA or PL or their mixture. After Haplex was administered to rats orally, the serum concentration of HA was increased when compared with the mixture or HA control groups from 4 h to 10 h (P 〈 0.05). The AAUCo-12, of Haplex was also greater than that of the other three groups (P 〈 0.05). CONCLUSION: The method of film dispersion and sonication can prepare HA and PL complex, and PL can enhance the oral absorption of exogenous HA.展开更多

Methods: Adult SD rats of either sex were used; 0.5 μl motilin (0. 74 retool/L) was injected into the guide cannula which was stereotaxically implanted into the hippocampus previously. Then the MMC was recorded by a RM6240B multilead physiological recording system. Resuits: (1)MMC characteristics of normal rats' duodenum: the frequency of phase Ⅲ was (18. 1±0. 4) bursts/min; the amplitude of phase Ⅲ was (260.5±42.3)μV; the duration of phase Ⅲ was (354.1±21.6) s; MMC cycle duration was (690.2±58.7)s. (2) After motilin was injected into the hippocampus, the duodenal MMC cycle duration was decreased significantly. However, the amplitude of phase Ⅲ and the frequency of phase Ⅲ were increased. But there were no effects on the duration of phase Ⅲ . Frequency of phase Ⅲ percentage change was much more than amplitude of phase Ⅲ percentage change (57.2±2.8 vs 39.3±5. 2). (3) Effects of motilin in the hippocampus on MMC were completely abolished by subdiaphragmal vagotomy. (4) Effects of motilin in the hippocampus on MMC were unaffected by intravenously injected atropine, phentolamine or propranolol. (5) The anti-motilin serum partly abolished the effects of motilin in the hippocampus on MMC. Conclusion: Motilin in the hippocampus has effects on the duodenal MMC cycle duration, the amplitude of phase Ⅲ and the frequency of phase Ⅲ. Motilin in the hippocampus plays an important role in duodenal MMC.展开更多
