[Preparation of self-assemble nobiletin proliposomes and its pharmacokinetics in rats].

To prepare self-assemble nobiletin proliposomes and study its pharmacokinetic behavior in rats after ig administration, and nobiletin suspension was used as control, self-assemble nobiletin proliposomes were prepared by a new proliposome preparation method, their physicochemical properties including encapsulation efficiency, particle size and stability of formed liposome were determined. Plasma concentration of nobiletin was determined by HPLC taking nimodipine as internal standard. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by Kinetica 4.4 software. The encapsulation efficiency of nobiletin liposomes was more than 80%, with an average particle size of 212.1 nm and very good stability. Compared to nobiletin suspension, nobiletin liposomes possessed higher absorptive rate and longer MRT, and the relative bioavailability was 264.3% in rats. It could be concluded that self-assemble nobiletin proliposome was a simple and feasible preparation, and showed greater absorption compared with nobiletin suspension.
