Tongmai formula (TMF) is a drug combination of three components including Puerariae Lobatae Radix [roots of Pueraria lobata], Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix (roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza) and Chuanxiong Rhizoma (rhizomes of Ligusticum chuanxiong) in a weight ratio of 1:1:1. The absorption and transport of isoflavonoid compounds from Tongmai formula across human intestinal epithelial (Caco-2) cells in vitro were studied in this paper. METHODS AND RESULTS: The assay isoflavonoid compounds include daidzein, formononetin, 5-hydroxylononin, ononin, daidzin, 3'-methoxypuerarin, genistin, puerarin, formononetin-8-C-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, formononetin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, lanceolarin, kakkanin, daidzein-7,4'-di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, mirificin, 3'-hydroxypuerarin, 3'-methoxydaidzin, formononetin-8-C-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, genistein-8-C-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, genistein-7-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (ambocin), 3'-Hydroxymirificin, 6'-O-β-D-xylosylpuerarin, biochanin A-8-C-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, 3'-methoxydaidzein-7,4'-di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, daidzein-7-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, and daidzein-7-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. By using human Caco-2 monolayer as an intestinal epithelial cell model in vitro, the permeability of above-mentioned 25 isoflavonoids in TMF were studied from the apical (AP) side to basolateral (BL) side or from the BL side to AP side. The assay compounds were determined by reversed phased high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with UV detector. Transport parameters and apparent permeability coefficients (Papp) were then calculated and and compared with those of propranolol and atenolol, which are the transcellular transport marker and as a control substance for high and poor permeability, respectively.
