Abstrakt: In recent years, significant efforts have been made to understand oral drug absorption mechanisms and to develop new research models. These studies have been conducted using both in vitro and in vivo models and play a crucial role in determining the rate and extent of drug absorption in the intestines. Specifically, the permeability value (Peff value) is a common measure used to assess drug intestinal passage. Today, there is an increasing need for reliable gastrointestinal absorption models that can be used in preclinical studies to develop new drugs and appropriate dosages. However, collaboration and integration across different disciplines are important for further advancements in this field. Strengthening connections between pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, biochemical, and physiological research areas can contribute to a better understanding of drug absorption mechanisms and biopharmaceutical progress. Particularly, the use of animal models that mimic human intestinal drug permeability and the role of human cell culture models in investigating drug absorption in the intestine are highlighted as significant steps in this regard. Such research enables a more detailed examination of intestinal drug diffusion processes, which are crucial for the biopharmaceutical advancement of pharmaceutical compounds. Understanding factors such as the interactions between drug molecules and membrane transport molecules that affect the intestinal Peff value can further advance the assessment and improvement of drug absorption processes.
