The purpose of the present study was to dig into recent studies designed to characterize the impacts of 2'-deoxy-2'-β-fluoro-4'-azidocytidine (FNC) on P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Specifically,
the modulation effects of FNC on P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP protein expressions were assessed by western blot methods. 5 (and 6)-Carboxy-2',7'-dichloroflourescein (CDF) and BODIPY-prazosin were used to provide indications of alterations of MRP2 and BCRP activities. The effects of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP
on FNC were evaluated in the in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion model. The results showed that FNC at higher concentrations and with longer incubation times can upregulate the protein expression of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP in Caco-2 cells. The upregulated proteins were also functionally
active, as revealed by a lower degree of CDF and BODIPY-prazosin uptake by the cell monolayers. The intestinal absorptive coefficient (Peff) was observed to significantly increase with the inhibitors of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP. These results suggested that FNC could modulate the expressions and
functions of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP, while P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP were involved in the efflux transport of FNC. The inductive effects of FNC on P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP suggested the possibility of FNC to contribute to the inter- and intra-individual variability of itself, as well as to alter the absorption
of other drugs that may be administered concomitantly.

2′-Deoxy-2′-β-fluoro-4′-azidocytidine (FNC), a cytidine analog, has attracted great interest because of its potent activity against wild-type and multidrug-resistant HIV. The purpose of current study was to investigate the absorption mechanisms of FNC in the small intestine, as well as the interactions between FNC and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). The experiments were performed using Caco-2 cells and the rat small intestine. The uptake experiment indicated that FNC concentration, extracellular pH and the incubated temperature could influence the uptake of FNC in Caco-2 cells. NaN 3 , verapamil , probenecid , MK571 and GF120918 could significantly increase the FNC uptake in Caco-2 cells. The transport experiment showed that both the absorption and secretion of FNC were concentration dependent. The secretion of FNC was approximately 2-fold greater than the absorption. In the presence of verapamil, probenecid, MK571 or GF120918, the efflux ratio decreased by > 50%. In everted rat intestine, the absorption of FNC also depended on its concentration and was not significantly different in the different segments of the small intestine. Real-time RT-PCR results indicated that the gene expressions of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP were up-regulated after exposure to FNC. The reduction in accumulation of rhodamine 123 after treatment with FNC revealed its ability to up-regulate P-gp activity. In conclusion, FNC was completely absorbed by passive diffusion and active transport mechanisms. P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP could influence the absorption of FNC in the small intestine. FNC could modulate the gene expressions of P-gp, MRP2 and BCRP, and increase the activity of P-gp.

Dysregulated inflammation is considered as an essential pathological process in inflammation-associated diseases, which would be aggravated by high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation inducing oxidative stress. Currently, extensive attention has been paid to polyphenolic compounds owing to their broad spectrum biological activities, such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, while their therapeutic potential has been compromised by the poor stability, short plasma half-life, and low bioavailability. Given that polyphenols have a wide range of structural characteristics and various physicochemical properties, there remains a real challenge toward green, mass production of universal nanocarriers for effective entrapment of these active pharmaceutical ingredients. In this study, we adopted a flash nanocomplexation (FNC) platform to prepare nanocomplexes comprising polyphenols and d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) enabled by hydrogen bonding. We confirmed that the molecular structure of polyphenols has a great influence on their complexation with TPGS, and stable nanocomplexes were formed when the number of phenolic hydroxyl groups of polyphenols was above the value of 8. These hydrogen-bonded nanocomplexes produced by an FNC apparatus exhibited well-controlled quality with uniform size, good colloidal stability, and high batch-to-batch repeatability, thus improving the druggability as potent nanotherapeutics for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory applications. In vivo experiments indicated that the optimal nanocomplex (EGCG-NC) can be applied to ameliorate acute lung injury in a mice model after nasal administration. These results proved that polyphenols formulated with TPGS for nanocomplex formation through hydrogen-bonding complexation could augment their therapeutic potential for modulating hyperactive inflammation in the treatment of acute lung inflammation.
