Abstract
Background Functional dyspepsia is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder in which a variety of pathophysiological mechanisms such as increased intestinal permeability and low-grade inflammation are involved. The factor causing these alterations, however, has not been identified. Objective We aimed to evaluate the luminal bile salt content and receptor expression in patients with functional dyspepsia and healthy volunteers. Methods Gastroduodenoscopy was performed to obtain duodenal biopsies from 25 healthy volunteers and 25 patients with functional dyspepsia (Rome III) to measure duodenal bile salt receptor expression with Western blot. Duodenal fluid aspirates were collected at fixed time points during fasted and fed state conditions and bile salt composition analysis was performed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. Results Patients (N = 17) displayed decreased fasted bile salt concentrations compared to healthy volunteers (N = 20) over time (1.8 ± 0.3 mM vs 3.6 ± 0.5 mM; p = 0.03). In addition, an increased expression of duodenal bile salt sensor vitamin D receptor was found in patients (3.7 ± 1.0-fold; p < 0.0005; N = 24 for both groups). Conclusion Patients with functional dyspepsia are characterized by a decreased duodenal bile salt concentration in fasted state and an increased duodenal vitamin D receptor expression.

Abstract
Flavonoids are a large class of dietary molecules, among which quercetin is the most ubiquitous, which undergo an extensive intestinal phase-II metabolism. We compared the in vivo metabolism of quercetin in healthy volunteers with two in vitro models, HT29 cells and 3 D human intestinal tissues. Supernatants of the in vitro experiments and the human intestinal fluids (HIF) were analyzed by LC-IMS-MS and LC-HRMS in a qualitative way. Quercetin glucuronides, sulfates and their methyl conjugates were detected in all three systems. The metabolic profiles were found to be different, both in terms of the metabolites produced and their relative proportions. In particular, quercetin sulfates were almost absent in supernatants from HT29 cells incubations while they were a major metabolite in HIF and also found in 3 D intestinal tissues incubations. IMS provided structural information as well as a third dimension of characterization, while HRMS brought increased sensitivity and MS/MS confirmation. HT29 cells are a useful tool to generate phase-II metabolites but do not represent the in vivo situation. 3 D intestinal tissues appear as a more relevant tool to study the intestinal phase-II metabolism of flavonoids.

Abstract
The small intestine is generally considered the major site of absorption after oral drug administration. Absorption from the stomach is often disregarded, though passive diffusion across the gastric mucosal barrier is theoretically possible. In this study, an in situ gastric bolus administration model was used to study the gastric absorption of pharmaceutical compounds in fasted and fed state rats. Three drugs [paracetamol (neutral), diclofenac (acidic) and posaconazole (basic)] were administered directly into the stomach as solution (paracetamol and diclofenac) or suspension (posaconazole). Transfer to the intestine was blocked by ligating the pylorus; as a reference, non-ligated conditions were used. Blood samples were collected and gastric absorption was assessed by the appearance of compounds in the systemic circulation. Paracetamol and diclofenac were readily absorbed from the fasted and fed state rat stomach. For paracetamol, the relative contribution of gastric absorption was higher in the fed state compared to the fasted state. Posaconazole absorption was negligible. Since the ability of the stomach to absorb pharmaceutical compounds was clearly confirmed, the present study warrants further research to quantify the contribution of gastric absorption to total gastrointestinal drug absorption.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Quercetin is one of the main dietary flavonoids and undergoes a substantial intestinal phase-II metabolism. Quercetin conjugates have been detected in plasma and in urine, but their presence in the small intestine has not been assessed. This study aimed to investigate the intestinal metabolism and metabolite excretion of quercetin by the human small intestinal wall after oral dosing. METHODS Six healthy volunteers were given a capsule of 500 mg of quercetin with 240 ml of water. Duodenal fluids were collected using the intraluminal sampling technique for 4 h and analysed by LC-MS/MS. KEY FINDINGS Phase-II metabolites of quercetin were detected and quantified in aspirated intestinal fluids. Metabolites appeared almost immediately after administration, indicating an intestinal metabolism and apical excretion into the lumen. Quercetin-3'-O-glucuronide was found to be the main intestinal metabolite. Our results could not conclude on the enterohepatic recycling of quercetin or its metabolites, although several individual profiles showed distinctive peaks. CONCLUSIONS This study highlights the intestinal metabolism and excretion of quercetin and its conjugates in humans and gives insights into the relevant concentrations which should be used to investigate potential food-drug interactions in vitro.

Abstract
Cell-free permeation systems are gaining interest in drug discovery and development as tools to obtain a reliable prediction of passive intestinal absorption without the disadvantages associated with cell- or tissue-based permeability profiling. Depending on the composition of the barrier, cell-free permeation systems are classified into two classes including (i) biomimetic barriers which are constructed from (phospho)lipids and (ii) non-biomimetic barriers containing dialysis membranes. This review provides an overview of the currently available cell-free permeation systems including Parallel Artificial Membrane Permeability Assay (PAMPA), Phospholipid Vesicle-based Permeation Assay (PVPA), Permeapad®, and artificial membrane based systems (e.g. the artificial membrane insert system (AMI-system)) in terms of their barrier composition as well as their predictive capacity in relation to well-characterized intestinal permeation systems. Given the potential loss of integrity of cell-based permeation barriers in the presence of food components or pharmaceutical excipients, the superior robustness of cell-free barriers makes them suitable for the combined dissolution/permeation evaluation of formulations. While cell-free permeation systems are mostly applied for exploring intestinal absorption, they can also be used to evaluate non-oral drug delivery by adjusting the composition of the membrane.

Abstract
Freshly-isolated rat hepatocytes are commonly used as tools for hepatic drug disposition. From an ethical point of view, it is important to maximize the use of isolated hepatocytes by cryopreservation. The present study compared overall hepatocyte functionality as well as activity of the organic anion transporting polypeptide (Oatp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2), and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1 (Ugt1), in in vitro models established with cryopreserved and freshly-isolated hepatocytes. A similar culture time-dependent decline in cellular functionality, as assessed by urea production, was observed in sandwich-cultured hepatocytes (SCH) obtained from freshly-isolated and cryopreserved cells. Concentration-dependent uptake kinetics of the Oatp substrate sodium fluorescein in suspended hepatocytes (SH) or SCH were not significantly affected by cryopreservation. Mrp2-mediated biliary excretion of 5 (and 6)-carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein by SCH was assessed with semi-quantitative fluorescence imaging: biliary excretion index values increased between day 3 and day 4, but did not differ significantly between cryopreserved and freshly-isolated hepatocytes. Finally, telmisartan disposition was evaluated in SCH to simultaneously explore Oatp, Ugt1, and Mrp2 activity. In order to distinguish between the susceptibilities of the individual disposition pathways to cryopreservation, a mechanistic cellular disposition model was developed. Basolateral and canalicular efflux as well as glucuronidation of telmisartan were affected by cryopreservation. In contrast, the disposition parameters of telmisartan-glucuronide were not impacted by cryopreservation. Overall, the relative contribution of the rate-determining processes (uptake, metabolism, efflux) remained unaltered between cryopreserved and freshly-isolated hepatocytes, indicating that cryopreserved hepatocytes are a suitable alternative for freshly-isolated hepatocytes when studying these cellular disposition pathways.

Abstract
In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness of a new 3D printed magnet holder that enables capture of magnetic microparticles in commercially available capillary electrophoresis equipment with a liquid or air based coolant system. The design as well as the method to capture magnetic microparticles inside the capillary are discussed. This setup was tested at temperature and pH values suitable for performing enzymatic reactions. To demonstrate its applicability in CE- immobilized microenzyme reactors (IMER) development, human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 and bovine serum albumin were immobilized on amino functionalized magnetic microparticles using glutaraldehyde. These microparticles were subsequently used to perform in-line capillary electrophoresis with clozapine as a model substrate. This setup could be used further to establish CE-IMERs of other drug metabolic enzymes in a commercially available liquid based capillary coolant system. The CE-IMER setup was successful, although a subsequent decrease in enzyme activity was observed on repeated runs.

Abstract
In addition to its important role in preventing the interaction of toxic agents with the intestinal lining, the intestinal mucus layer can impede the permeation of drugs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the presence of HP-β-CD in the intraluminal environment could influence the permeation of drugs through a layer of mucus. To this end, a new artificial membrane insert system incorporating a fixed mucus layer was developed to monitor the permeation of methylparaben (log P=1.96) and heptylparaben (log P=4.83). While the transport of methylparaben remained unaffected by the mucus layer, the transport of heptylparaben was significantly impeded by the mucus layer. In presence of relatively low concentrations of HP-β-CD, however, this negative effect of mucus on the permeation of heptylparaben disappeared. Importantly, the impact of the mucus layer was found to depend on the composition of the solvent system used. The colloidal structures present in simulated intestinal media were able to neutralize the impeding effect of mucus on heptylparaben permeation observed when using simple phosphate buffers. These findings advocate the use of biorelevant media when studying the impact of the mucus layer on drug permeation.

Abstract
Lack of knowledge on the expected concentration range or insufficient linear dynamic range of the analytical method applied are common challenges for the analytical scientist. Samples that are above the upper limit of quantification are typically diluted and reanalyzed. The analysis of undiluted highly concentrated samples can cause contamination of the system, while the dilution step is time consuming and as the case for any sample preparation step, also potentially leads to precipitation, adsorption or degradation of the analytes.

Abstract
Dissolution testing with biorelevant media has become widespread in the pharmaceutical industry as a means of better understanding how drugs and formulations behave in the gastrointestinal tract. Until now, however, there have been few attempts to gauge the reproducibility of results obtained with these methods. The aim of this study was to determine the interlaboratory reproducibility of biorelevant dissolution testing, using the paddle apparatus (USP 2). Thirteen industrial and three academic laboratories participated in this study. All laboratories were provided with standard protocols for running the tests: dissolution in FaSSGF to simulate release in the stomach, dissolution in a single intestinal medium, FaSSIF, to simulate release in the small intestine, and a "transfer" (two-stage) protocol to simulate the concentration profile when conditions are changed from the gastric to the intestinal environment. The test products chosen were commercially available ibuprofen tablets and zafirlukast tablets. The biorelevant dissolution tests showed a high degree of reproducibility among the participating laboratories, even though several different batches of the commercially available medium preparation powder were used. Likewise, results were almost identicalbetween the commercial biorelevant media and those produced in-house. Comparing results to previous ring studies, including those performed with USP calibrator tablets or commercially available pharmaceutical products in a single medium, the results for the biorelevant studies were highly reproducible on an interlaboratory basis. Interlaboratory reproducibility with the two-stage test was also acceptable, although the variability was somewhat greater than with the single medium tests. Biorelevant dissolution testing is highly reproducible among laboratories and can be relied upon for cross-laboratory comparisons.

Abstract
Despite reasonable predictive power of current cell-based and cell-free absorption models for the assessment of intestinal drug permeability, high costs and lengthy preparation steps hamper their use. The use of a simple artificial membrane (without any lipids present) as intestinal barrier substitute would overcome these hurdles. In the present study, a set of 14 poorly water-soluble drugs, dissolved in 2 different media (fasted state simulated/human intestinal fluids [FaSSIF/FaHIF]), were applied to the donor compartment of an artificial membrane insert system (AMI-system) containing a regenerated cellulose membrane. Furthermore, to investigate the predictive capacity of the AMI-system as substitute for the well-established Caco-2 system to assess intestinal permeability, the same set of 14 drugs dissolved in FaHIF were applied to the donor compartment of a Caco-2 system. For 14 drugs, covering a broad range of physicochemical parameters, a reasonable correlation between both absorption systems was observed, characterized by a Pearson correlation coefficient r of 0.95 (FaHIF). Using the AMI-system, an excellent predictive capacity of FaSSIF as surrogate medium for FaHIF was demonstrated (r = 0.96). Based on the acquired data, the AMI-system appears to be a time- and cost-effective tool for the early-stage estimation of passive intestinal permeability for poorly water-soluble drugs.
