6. Human Test Systems for Drug Permeability
Biopta is able to conduct experiments on human healthy and diseased tissues
including gastrointestinal tract

large intestine

7. Why Use Fresh Human Tissue to Predict In
Vivo Drug Absorption and Metabolism?
•
Represents the closest possible model to patients
•
Biopta uses the actual site of absorption that is relevant in vivo
e.g. fresh small intestine for oral drugs or skin for topically-applied drugs.
•
Avoids species differences
animal tissues and cell-based models do not fully reflect human biology, with
differences in transporters, metabolic enzymes and diet

•
Rat intestinal permeability similar to human intestine,
but human bioavailability is not predicted by rat
bioavailability
•
Passive absorption and expression of transporters is
similar in rats and humans but no correlation
between rat and human metabolizing enzymes in GI
tract

9. The Prediction of Human Bioavailability
• Oral drugs require an estimation of the fraction reaching the
systemic circulation (F).
• This is estimated by F = Fa x Fg x Fh
Fa = fraction absorbed into the portal circulation
Fg = fraction escaping gut clearance
Fh = fraction escaping hepatic clearance.
• No other model reflects both human native tissue Fa and Fg in the
same system (e.g. differences in transporter expression in Caco-2
cells)
• Conduct comparative studies between species

11. How is the rate of absorption measured in vitro?
Permeability Co-efficient (Papp)
The following formula is used to calculate the permeability co-efficient of a
compound:
Papp = VR/(A.C0).dC/dt (cm/s)
Where:
VR
= Volume of receiver chamber
A
= Area of tissue exposed to compound
C0
= Initial concentration of compound
dC/dt
= Slope of concentration versus time
This is a standard measure of the rate of absorption, which can be used to compare
to human in vivo fraction absorbed

15. Human Intestinal Metabolism Modelled in the
Ussing Chamber
• Ussing chambers offer the opportunity to model human absorption
taking into account intestinal metabolism.
F = Fa x Fg x Fh
• Human duodenal mucosa mounted in the Ussing chamber shows
time-dependent Phase 1 and Phase 2 metabolism of model enzyme
substrates.
• Ussing chambers also allow the opportunity to highlight differences
in intestinal absorption and metabolism between preclinical species
