Flavonoids, as a common component of daily nutrition, are a possible source of interference with absorption processes, due to modulation of transporting proteins. In this study, the influence of selected flavonoids (quercetin, isoquercitrin, spiraeoside, rutin, kaempferol, naringenin, naringin, and kaempferol) on the transport of the P-gp substrate [3H]talinolol across Caco-2 cell monolayers was investigated.

In this study, the influence of selected flavonoids (quercetin, isoquercitrin, spiraeoside, rutin, kaempferol, naringenin, naringin, and kaempferol) on the transport of the P-gp substrate [3H]talinolol across Caco-2 cell monolayers was investigated. To elucidate the mechanism behind the interaction observed in this system the potency of the flavonoids to replace [3H]talinolol from its P-gp binding site as well as their activity to inhibit OCT2-mediated [14C]TEA uptake into LLC-PK(1) cells were measured, as P-gp and OCT have been shown to be present in Caco-2 cells. Six of the investigated flavonoids reduced the secretory flux of talinolol across Caco-2 cells (IC50-values: hesperetin» weiterlesen» einklappen
