Abstract
Intestinal lymphatic transport has been shown to be an absorptive pathway following oral administration of lipids and an increasing number of lipophilic drugs, which once absorbed, diffuse across the intestinal enterocyte and while in transit associate with secretable enterocyte lipoproteins. The chylomicron-associated drug is then secreted from the enterocyte into the lymphatic circulation, rather than the portal circulation, thus avoiding the metabolically-active liver, but still ultimately returning to the systemic circulation. Because of this parallel and potentially alternative absorptive pathway, first-pass metabolism can be reduced while increasing lymphatic drug exposure, which opens the potential for novel therapeutic modalities and allows the implementation of lipid-based drug delivery systems. This review discusses the physiological features of the lymphatics, enterocyte uptake and metabolism, links between drug transport and lipid digestion/re-acylation, experimental model (in vivo, in vitro, and in silico) of lymphatic transport, and the design of lipid- or prodrug-based drug delivery systems for enhancing lymphatic drug transport.

Abstract
In rodents, bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) and pancreatic lipase-related protein 2 (PLRP2) are the dominant lipases expressed in the exocrine pancreas in early life when milk is the main food. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether BSSL and PLRP2 are also key enzymes in neonatal intestinal fat digestion. Using Caco-2 cells as a model for the small intestinal epithelium, purified human enzymes were incubated in the apical compartment with substrates, bile salt composition and concentrations physiologic to newborn infants. Both BSSL and PLRP2 hydrolyzed triglycerides (TG) to free FA and glycerol. Released FA were absorbed by the cells and reesterfied to TG. Together, BSSL and PLRP2 had a synergistic effect, increasing cellular uptake and reesterification 4-fold compared with the sum of each lipase alone. A synergistic effect was also observed with retinyl ester as a substrate. PLRP2 hydrolyzed cholesteryl ester but not as efficiently as BSSL, and the two had an additive rather than synergistic effect. We conclude the key enzymes in intestinal fat digestion are different in newborns than later in life. Further studies are needed to fully understand this difference and its implication for designing optimal neonatal nutrition.

Abstract
Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy is currently the mainstay of treatment for nutrient malabsorption secondary to pancreatic insufficiency. This treatment is safe and has few side effects. Data demonstrate efficacy in reducing steatorrhea and fat malabsorption. Effective therapy has been limited by the ability to replicate the physiologic process of enzyme delivery to the appropriate site, in general the duodenum, at the appropriate time. The challenges include enzyme destruction in the stomach, lack of adequate mixing with the chyme in the duodenum, and failing to deliver and activate at the appropriate time. Treatment is begun when clinically significant malabsorption occurs resulting in steatorrhea and weight loss. Treatment failure is addressed in a sequential fashion. Current research is aimed at studying new enzymes and delivery systems to improve the efficiency of action in the duodenum along with developing better means to monitor therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Based on the knowledge of human intestinal fluids, compositions of biorelevant media and their impact on solubility, dissolution and permeability studies of poorly soluble drug compounds are discussed. KEY FINDINGS Human intestinal fluids show large variations with regard to composition and pH, which complicate the selection of biorelevant media. The influence of concentration and ratio of bile salts, phospholipids and hydrolysis products, such as monoglycerides and free fatty acids, in well characterised media, on the solubility, dissolution and permeability of a given drug provides valuable information on the behaviour of the drug in the intestine, thus enabling the prediction of the in-vivo absorption. SUMMARY This review discusses the implications of biorelevant media composition on the solubility, dissolution and permeability of poorly soluble drug compounds. Biorelevant media contain bile salts and phospholipids and when simulating the fed state also monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Solubility of some poorly soluble drugs increase independently of the type of surfactants included in the biorelevant media, while others have a higher solubility in monoglyceride- and fatty acid-containing media. This is independent of the log P (the octanol-water partition coefficient) of the drug. The use of biorelevant dissolution media improves the correlation to in-vivo data, compared with compendial media, and although the field of permeability studies is complex the use of biorelevant media in this setting shows promise with respect to a better prediction of absorption.

Abstract
Phytosterols (plant sterols and stanols) can lower intestinal cholesterol absorption, but the complex dynamics of the lipid digestion process in the presence of phytosterol esters (PEs) are not fully understood. We performed a clinical experiment in intubated healthy subjects to study the time course of changes in the distribution of all lipid moieties present in duodenal phases during 4 h of digestion of meals with 3.2 g PE (PE meal) or without (control meal) PE. In vitro experiments under simulated gastrointestinal conditions were also performed. The addition of PE did not alter triglyceride (TG) hydrolysis in the duodenum or subsequent chylomicron TG occurrence in the circulation. In contrast, cholesterol accumulation in the duodenum aqueous phase was markedly reduced in the presence of PE (-32%, P < 0.10). In vitro experiments confirmed that PE reduces cholesterol transfer into the aqueous phase. The addition of PE resulted in a markedly reduced presence of meal-derived hepta-deuterated cholesterol in the circulation, i.e., in chylomicrons (-43%, PE meal vs. control; P < 0.0001) and plasma (-54%, PE meal vs. control; P < 0.0001). The present data show that addition of PE to a meal does not alter TG hydrolysis but displaces cholesterol from the intestinal aqueous phase and lowers chylomicron cholesterol occurrence in humans.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Lithocholic acid (LCA) is an endogenous compound associated with hepatic toxicity during cholestasis. LCA exposure in mice resulted in decreased serum lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and sphingomyelin levels due to elevated lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (LPCAT) and sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase (SMPD) expression. Global metabolome analysis indicated significant decreases in serum palmitoyl-, stearoyl-, oleoyl-, and linoleoyl-LPC levels after LCA exposure. LCA treatment also resulted in decreased serum sphingomyelin levels and increased hepatic ceramide levels, and induction of LPCAT and SMPD messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) induced Lpcat2/4 and Smpd3 gene expression in primary hepatocytes and the induction was diminished by pretreatment with the SMAD3 inhibitor SIS3. Furthermore, alteration of the LPCs and Lpcat1/2/4 and Smpd3 expression was attenuated in LCA-treated farnesoid X receptor-null mice that are resistant to LCA-induced intrahepatic cholestasis. CONCLUSION This study revealed that LCA induced disruption of phospholipid/sphingolipid homeostasis through TGF-β signaling and that serum LPC is a biomarker for biliary injury.

Abstract
With the increasing interest in lipid and surfactant based drug delivery systems (LSBDDS) for oral delivery of poorly soluble drugs, the need for efficient development tools is emerging. In vitro lipolysis models, simulating the digestion in the small intestine, is a promising tool in this regard. Several different in vitro lipolysis models have been used for characterization of LSBDDS, all using porcine pancreatin as lipase source, and primarily differing in the addition scheme of calcium and the kind of bile acids employed. Both calcium and bile influence the lipolysis. Calcium have been used both as fixed addition at the beginning of the experiment and with a continuous addition during lipolysis. Both pure bile acids and crude porcine bile extract have been used. Lipolysis of LSBDDS will generate mixed micelles, as well as lamellar and hexagonal phases. These have been characterized by dynamic light scattering, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and small angle X-ray scattering. The faith of drug during in vitro digestion of a LSBDDS is often studied by ultracentrifugation and quantification of drug in the different phases formed. Further, drug precipitated during in vitro lipolysis has been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and polarized light microscopy.

Abstract
The present investigation aimed to expand the knowledge of bioaccessibility of carotenoids, tocopherols, and tocotrienols from cereal products such as pasta. Because most of the published approaches assessing the bioaccessibility of lipophilic micronutrients dealt with fruits and vegetables, a prevalent in vitro digestion procedure was modified. Additionally, several digestion parameters were evaluated with regard to their impact on the bioaccessibility of carotenoids and vitamin E from pasta. Overall, the estimated values were highly dependent on the amount of bile extract present in the digestive medium and to a lesser extent on the simulated gastric pH and the incubation time with digestive enzymes. The bioaccessibility of carotenoids and vitamin E from durum wheat pasta was quite high (71 ± 5 and 70 ± 4%, respectively), whereas these micronutrients were considerably less accessible from pasta containing 10% eggs (57 ± 1 and 49 ± 5%, respectively).

Abstract
Background We previously showed that blood serum induced cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) monooxygenase expression in vitro. Objective Our purpose was (i) to identify the molecular mechanism involved and (ii) to characterize the inducer compound(s) in serum involved at least in part. Methods Serum was fractionated on hydrophobic columns. PPARα involvement was demonstrated by gene reporter assays, DNA mutagenesis and EMSA. Gene expression was evaluated by qRT-PCR. Serum samples were analyzed using HS-SPME-GC-MS. Results The inductive effect of serum did not depend on the AhR pathway and was enhanced by cotransfection of PPARα cDNA. Mutations in the PPAR response elements of the CYP1A1 gene promoter suppressed this effect. One of the PPRE sites appeared highly specific for human PPARα, an unreported PPRE property. A link was found between CYP1A1 inducibility and serum hydrophobic compounds. Characterization of sera showed that hexanal, a metabolite produced by peroxidation of linoleic acid, was involved in CYP1A1 induction by serum, possibly along with other serum entities. Conclusion We demonstrate that serum induces CYP1A1 via the PPARα pathway and that hexanal is one of the serum inducers. The two PPRE sites within the CYP1A1 promoter are functional and one of them is specific for PPARα.

Abstract
The present study examined the anti-obesity effect and mechanism of action of Korean white ginseng extracts (KGE) using high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice. Mice were fed a low-fat diet (LFD), HFD or HFD containing 0.8 and 1.6% (w/w) KGE diet (HFD + 0.8KGE and HFD + 1.6KGE) for 8 weeks. We also examined the effects of KGE on plasma triglyceride (TG) elevation in mice administrated with oral lipid emulsion. Body weight gain and white adipose tissue (WAT) weight were significantly decreased in the HFD + 1.6KGE group, compared with the HFD group. The plasma TG levels were also significantly reduced in both HFD + 0.8KGE and HFD + 1.6KGE groups, while leptin levels were significantly decreased in only the HFD + 1.6KGE group, compared with the HFD group. The HFD + 1.6KGE group showed significantly lower mRNA levels of lipogenesis-related genes, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ2 (PPARγ2), sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), fatty acid synthase (FAS) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), compared with the HFD group. In addition, a dose of 1000 mg/kg KGE inhibited the elevation of plasma TG levels compared with mice given the lipid emulsion alone. These results suggest that the anti-obesity effects of KGE may be elicited by regulating expression of lipogenesis-related genes in WAT and by delaying intestinal fat absorption.

Abstract
Triglycerides have a limited solubility, around 3%, in phosphatidylcholine lipid bilayers. Using millisecond-scale course grained molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the model lipid bilayer can accommodate a higher concentration of triolein (TO) than earlier anticipated, by sequestering triolein molecules to the bilayer center in the form of a disordered, isotropic, mobile neutral lipid aggregate, at least 17 nm in diameter, which forms spontaneously, and remains stable on at least the microsecond time scale. The results give credence to the hotly debated existence of mobile neutral lipid aggregates of unknown function present in malignant cells, and to the early biogenesis of lipid droplets accommodated between the two leaflets of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. The TO aggregates give the bilayer a blister-like appearance, and will hinder the formation of multi-lamellar phases in model, and possibly living membranes. The blisters will result in anomalous membrane probe partitioning, which should be accounted for in the interpretation of probe-related measurements.

Abstract
In the human digestion process, triglycerides are hydrolyzed by lipases to monoglycerides and the corresponding fatty acids. Here we report the self-assembly of structures in biologically relevant, emulsified oleic acid-monoolein mixtures at various pH values and oleic acid concentrations. Small-angle X-ray scattering, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering were used to investigate the structures formed, and to follow their transitions while these factors were varied. The addition of oleic acid to monoolein-based cubosomes was found to increase the critical packing parameter in the system. Structural transitions from bicontinuous cubosomes through hexosomes and micellar cubosomes (Fd3m symmetry) to emulsified microemulsions occur with increasing oleic acid concentration. At sufficiently high oleic acid concentration, the internal particle structure was also found to strongly depend on the pH of the aqueous phase: transformations from emulsified microemulsion through micellar cubosomes, hexosomes, and bicontinuous cubosomes to vesicles can be observed as a function of increasing pH. The reversible transition from liquid crystals to vesicles occurs at intestinal pH values (between pH 7 and 8). The hydrodynamic radius of the particles decreases from around 120 nm for internally structured particles to around 60 nm for vesicles. All transitions with pH are reversible. Finally, the apparent pK(a) for oleic acid in monoolein could be determined from the change of structure with pH. This value is within the physiological pH range of the intestine and depends somewhat on composition.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Regulation of cholesterol homeostasis is a complex interplay of a multitude of metabolic pathways situated in different organs. The liver plays a central role and has received most attention of the research community. In this review, we discuss recent progress in the understanding of the emerging role of the intestine in cholesterol transport. RECENT FINDINGS In recent years, insight in the transport systems that mediate intestinal cholesterol excretion has deepened considerably. Evidence is emerging that the proximal part of the small intestine is able to secrete cholesterol actively, a pathway called transintestinal cholesterol efflux (TICE). In mice, TICE accounts for up to 70% of fecal neutral sterol excretion. SUMMARY The small intestine plays a significant role in the regulation of body cholesterol homeostasis. Active processes control both absorption and excretion of the sterol and the pathways involved are being elucidated. TICE might provide an attractive target for therapy aiming at reduction of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To highlight our understanding of digestion and absorption of dietary lipids in newborn infants, and specifically how these processes differ from those in children and adults. RECENT FINDINGS The intestinal concentration of pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) and bile salts is lower in newborns compared to later in life. Instead the PTL-related protein 2 and bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) are the key enzymes secreted from pancreas, which in concerted action with gastric lipase operate to achieve efficient fat absorption during infancy. BSSL is also present in human milk which affects fat absorption and growth in breast-fed preterm infants. Under conditions of low luminal bile salt concentrations fat absorption is likely to occur from liquid crystalline product phases, which may result in absorption from an extended part of the small intestinal mucosal surfaces compared to adults. Chylomicron assembly and secretion also seem to adapt to the specific situation of the newborn. SUMMARY Both fat digestion and product absorption are different in newborn infants compared to adults; other lipases are used for digestion and different physical-chemical phases may be used for product absorption. Why these differences occur is still an unsolved question of considerable importance to neonatal nutrition.

Abstract
The most widely used pharmacological therapies for obesity and weight management are based on inhibition of gastrointestinal lipases, resulting in a reduced energy yield of ingested foods by reducing dietary lipid absorption. Colipase-dependent pancreatic lipase is believed to be the major gastrointestinal enzyme involved in catalysis of lipid ester bonds. There is scant literature on the action of pancreatic lipase under the range of physiological conditions that occur within the human small intestine, and the literature that does exist is often contradictory. Due to the importance of pancreatic lipase activity to nutrition and weight management, the present review aims to assess the current body of knowledge with regards to the physiology behind the action of this unique gastrointestinal enzyme system. Existing data would suggest that pancreatic lipase activity is affected by intestinal pH, the presence of colipase and bile salts, but not by the physiological range of Ca ion concentration (as is commonly assumed). The control of secretion of pancreatic lipase and its associated factors appears to be driven by gastrointestinal luminal content, particularly the presence of acid or digested proteins and fats in the duodenal lumen. Secretion of colipase, bile acids and pancreatic lipase is driven by cholecystokinin and secretin release.

Abstract
Experiments carried out with cultured cells and in experimental animals have consistently shown that phospholipids (PLs) can inhibit intestinal cholesterol absorption. Limited evidence from clinical studies suggests that dietary PL supplementation has a similar effect in man. A number of biological mechanisms have been proposed in order to explain how PL in the gut lumen is able to affect cholesterol uptake by the gut mucosa. Further research is however required to establish whether the ability of PLs to inhibit cholesterol absorption is of therapeutic benefit.

Abstract
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and its hydrolysates are considered to stimulate intestinal lipid absorption, however, their exact effects on lipoproteins and apolipoprotein (apo) metabolism remain ambiguous. This study aimed to further differentiate the effects of them using fully differentiated enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells. Lipid micelles (oleic acid 0.6, cholesterol 0.05, monooleylglycerol 0.2, taurocholate 2 in mmol/l) with or without choline, PC, and lysoPC (0.2 mmol/l each) were applied apically to Caco-2 cells. 3H-oleic acid and 14C-cholesterol were added to the micelles when necessary. Secreted lipoproteins were analyzed by a HPLC method. LysoPC had the most potent promoting effect on lipid uptake, and lipoprotein and apolipoprotein B-48 secretion among the molecules tested. LysoPC doubled the output of cholesterol and triglyceride as the lipoprotein component, but PC did not. On the other hand, PC only increased the secretion of apoA-IV in the presence of lipid micelles. These findings confirm that the alteration of PC by PLA2 hydrolysis is intrinsically involved in the intestinal lipid absorption process and suggest that PC and its hydrolysis are coordinately associated with not only lipid absorption efficiency but also lipoprotein output and metabolism.

Abstract
Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and the Mg-free chlorophyll derivatives pheophytin a, pheophytin b, pyropheophytin a, pheophorbide a, and pyropheophorbide a, dissolved in an oily matrix, were subjected to a simulated in vitro digestion procedure coupled with uptake by human intestinal Caco-2 cells. The native chlorophylls showed greater instability to the digestive process than the Mg-free chlorophyll derivatives. In addition to pheophytinization reactions, allomerization and oxidation to uncolored compounds were found to greater extents for the former. After digestion, the pigment dispersion degree in the colloid system (aqueous-"micellar" phase) showed significant differences (p < 0.05) among series a and series b derivatives. However, when a mixture of pheophytin a and pheophytin b was digested, there was a positive effect for pheophytin b. Both the dispersion degree and the accumulation rate by the Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells were significantly higher (p < 0.05) for dephytylated chlorophyll derivatives. Differences in the transport route were also found. Whereas phytylated chlorophyll derivatives showed passive absorption by simple diffusion, the dephytylated ones showed passive absorption by facilitated diffusion in the lower range of concentrations tested. These results showed that the structural modifications of the chlorophyll pigments, mainly the de-esterification of phytol, significantly increased--by an estimated 65-fold--its transfer from the food matrix to the intestinal epithelial cells during digestion, making it more bioaccessible. The possible relationship between the phototoxicity associated with pheophorbide and the high bioaccessibility demonstrated in this work is discussed.

Abstract
Our knowledge of the uptake and transport of dietary fat and fat-soluble vitamins has advanced considerably. Researchers have identified several new mechanisms by which lipids are taken up by enterocytes and packaged as chylomicrons for export into the lymphatic system or clarified the actions of mechanisms previously known to participate in these processes. Fatty acids are taken up by enterocytes involving protein-mediated as well as protein-independent processes. Net cholesterol uptake depends on the competing activities of NPC1L1, ABCG5, and ABCG8 present in the apical membrane. We have considerably more detailed information about the uptake of products of lipid hydrolysis, the active transport systems by which they reach the endoplasmic reticulum, the mechanisms by which they are resynthesized into neutral lipids and utilized within the endoplasmic reticulum to form lipoproteins, and the mechanisms by which lipoproteins are secreted from the basolateral side of the enterocyte. apoB and MTP are known to be central to the efficient assembly and secretion of lipoproteins. In recent studies, investigators found that cholesterol, phospholipids, and vitamin E can also be secreted from enterocytes as components of high-density apoB-free/apoAI-containing lipoproteins. Several of these advances will probably be investigated further for their potential as targets for the development of drugs that can suppress cholesterol absorption, thereby reducing the risk of hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Recent studies have indicated that direct intestinal secretion of plasma cholesterol significantly contributes to fecal neutral sterol loss in mice. The physiological relevance of this novel route, which represents a part of the reverse cholesterol transport pathway, has not been directly established in vivo as yet. We have developed a method to quantify the fractional and absolute contributions of several cholesterol fluxes to total fecal neutral sterol loss in vivo in mice, by assessing the kinetics of orally and intravenously administered stable isotopically labeled cholesterol combined with an isotopic approach to assess the fate of de novo synthesized cholesterol. Our results show that trans-intestinal cholesterol excretion significantly contributes to removal of blood-derived free cholesterol in C57Bl6/J mice (33% of 231 micromol/kg/day) and that pharmacological activation of LXR with T0901317 strongly stimulates this pathway (63% of 706 micromol/kg/day). Trans-intestinal cholesterol excretion is impaired in mice lacking Abcg5 (-4%), suggesting that the cholesterol transporting Abcg5/Abcg8 heterodimer is involved in this pathway. Our data demonstrate that intestinal excretion represents a quantitatively important route for fecal removal of neutral sterols independent of biliary secretion in mice. This pathway is sensitive to pharmacological activation of the LXR system. These data support the concept that the intestine substantially contributes to reverse cholesterol transport.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the changes in duodenal composition in three nutritional states: fasted, fed, and fat-enriched fed state. Two isocaloric meals were administered to healthy subjects on nonconsecutive days. Subsequently, duodenal samples were collected every 30 min after which they were characterized with respect to pH, lipolytic products, bile salts, phospholipids, osmolality, and surface tension. The resulting time profiles displayed fluctuating patterns, which reflect high inter- and intrasubject variability. Duodenal composition was not altered by the higher fat percentage of the fat-enriched liquid meal. Monoglycerides, amounting from 5% to 88% of total lipids, were the dominant lipolytic species, followed by free fatty acids. Within 30 min after meal administration, individual intraduodenal concentrations of lipid products were 0.0-5.5, 1.0-14.9, and 3.1-22.4 mg/mL in fasted, fed, and fat-enriched fed state, respectively. The corresponding values for bile salts were 2.0-9.0, 6.9-9.3, and 4.4-30.3 mM and for phospholipids 0.06-2.4, 2.6-5.7, and 1.4-9.3 mM, respectively. Specific trends though, were not detected. This study illustrates the variable intraluminal conditions that can result after food intake. As intraduodenal events (e.g., intraduodenal dissolution) affect absorption of poorly water soluble and/or highly lipophilic drugs, this variability may possibly contribute to the highly variable drug plasma-time profiles often observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chinese medicine has been proposed as a novel strategy for the prevention of metabolic disorders such as obesity. The present study tested 17 Chinese medicinal herbs were tested for their potential anti-obesity effects. METHODS The herbs were evaluated in terms of their abilities to stimulate the transcription of Apolipoprotein A-IV (ApoA-IV) in cultured Caco-2/TC7 enterocytes. The herbs that showed stimulating effects on ApoA-IV transcription were further evaluated in terms of their abilities to reduce the formation of triglyceride in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. RESULTS ApoA-IV transcription was stimulated by Rhizoma Alismatis and Radix Angelica Sinensis in a dose- and time-dependent manner in cultured Caco-2/TC7 cells. Moreover, these two herbs reduced the amount of triglyceride in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. CONCLUSION The results suggest that Rhizoma Alistmatis and Radix Angelica Sinensis may have potential anti-obesity effects as they stimulate ApoA-IV transcription and reduce triglyceride formation.

Abstract
Background The intestine is responsible for absorbing dietary lipids and delivering them to the organism as triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL). It is important to determine how this process is regulated in enterocytes, the absorptive cells of the intestine, as prolonged postprandial hypertriglyceridemia is a known risk factor for atherosclerosis. During the postprandial period, dietary lipids, mostly triglycerides (TG) hydrolyzed by pancreatic enzymes, are combined with bile products and reach the apical membrane of enterocytes as postprandial micelles (PPM). Our aim was to determine whether these micelles induce, in enterocytes, specific early cell signaling events that could control the processes leading to TRL secretion. Methodology/Principal Findings The effects of supplying PPM to the apex of Caco-2/TC7 enterocytes were analyzed. Micelles devoid of TG hydrolysis products, like those present in the intestinal lumen in the interprandial period, were used as controls. The apical delivery of PPM specifically induced a number of cellular events that are not induced by interprandial micelles. These early events included the trafficking of apolipoprotein B, a structural component of TRL, from apical towards secretory domains, and the rapid, dose-dependent activation of ERK and p38MAPK. PPM supply induced the scavenger receptor SR-BI/CLA-1 to cluster at the apical brush border membrane and to move from non-raft to raft domains. Competition, inhibition or knockdown of SR-BI/CLA-1 impaired the PPM-dependent apoB trafficking and ERK activation. Conclusions/Significance These results are the first evidence that enterocytes specifically sense postprandial dietary lipid-containing micelles. SR-BI/CLA-1 is involved in this process and could be a target for further study with a view to modifying intestinal TRL secretion early in the control pathway.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the solubilization capacity of sodium cholate/lecithin-mixed micelles and to evaluate the potential of mixed micelles as a carrier of cyclosporine A for intravenous infusion. The mixed micelles were prepared by coprecipitation technique. The formulation components and preparation procedures, which may affect the solubilization of cyclosporine A, were studied. The dilution stability of cyclosporine A-containing mixed micelles was investigated. Pharmacokinetic behaviors of mixed micelles in rabbits after intravenous infusion were compared with Sandimmun. Results showed the strategies to increase the solubility of cyclosporine A include lowering the molar ratio of sodium cholate to lecithin, increasing the concentration of lecithin, and reducing the ionic strength of the dispersion medium and temperature. The largest solubility was found to be 5.42 +/- 0.16 mg/ml. The leakage of mixed micelles in 5% glucose (5.84%) was much less than that in saline solution (36.7%). The relative bioavailability of mixed micelles versus Sandimmun was 112 +/- 20%, and statistical analysis demonstrated both preparations were bioequivalent. Sodium cholate/lecithin-mixed micelles are promising carriers in the intravenous delivery of cyclosporine A, considering their capability of large-scale production and low-toxic property.

Abstract
Metabolites of lutein are highly concentrated in the human macula and are known to provide protection against age-related macular degeneration. The aim of this investigation was to characterize the in vitro oxidation products of lutein obtained through photo-oxidation and to compare them with biologically transformed dietary lutein in intestine, plasma, liver, and eyes of rats. In vivo studies involved feeding rats a diet devoid of lutein for 2 weeks to induce deficiency. Rats were divided into two equal groups (n=6/group) and received either micellar lutein by gavage for 10 days or diet supplemented with fenugreek leaves as a lutein source for 4 weeks. Lutein metabolites/oxidation products obtained from in vivo and in vitro studies were characterized by HPLC and LC-MS (APCI) techniques to elucidate their structure. The characteristic fragmented ions resulting from photo-oxidation of lutein were identified as 523 (M(+)+H(+)-3CH(3)), 476 (M(+)+H(+)-6CH(3)), and 551 (M(+)+H(+)-H(2)O). In the eyes, the fragmented molecules resulting from lutein were 13-Z lutein, 13'-Z lutein, 13-Z zeaxanthin, all-E zeaxanthin, 9-Z lutein, 9'-Z lutein, and 3'-oxolutein. Epoxycarotenoids were identified in liver and plasma, whereas anhydrolutein was identified in intestine. This study emphasizes the essentiality of dietary lutein to maintain its status in the retina.
