Effect of probucol on the oral bioavailability of cyclosporine A

We have previously reported the reduction in oral bioavailability of cyclosporine A (CsA) by probucol, a lipid-lowering drug. To evaluate the mechanism, we examined the effect of probucol on the transport of CsA across Caco-2 cell monolayers, on the influence of CsA pharmacokinetics in rats, and on...

Zusammenfassung:We have previously reported the reduction in oral bioavailability of cyclosporine A (CsA) by probucol, a lipid-lowering drug. To evaluate the mechanism, we examined the effect of probucol on the transport of CsA across Caco-2 cell monolayers, on the influence of CsA pharmacokinetics in rats, and on the change of ultraviolet-absorption spectrum of the drug. Pretreatment with probucol (50 μM) inhibited ( P
