Popis: Gossypol (GP) is a kind of poorly water-soluble polyphenolic compounds. In this study, gossypol nanosuspensions (GP-NS) were prepared. The ability of intestinal absorption was evaluated. The result indicated that GP-NS could be absorbed in whole intestinal sections and permeated across the intestine, the process of gossypol nanosuspensions were not affected by P-gp efflux.The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of GP-NS after intravenous administration to mice was studied. GP-NS resulted in a higher plasma concentration and lower clearance.The tissue distribution study indicated that GP-NS showed a high uptake in reticuloendothelial system organs. In conclusion, the nanosuspensions system is a promising approach for gossypol.
