Due to their specificity, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and their fragments are promising candidates for treating renal fibrosis, but their distribution characteristics in fibrotic kidneys, particularly within the renal interstitium, remain unclear. This study investigated the tissue distribution of full-length IgG and Fab fragments in a unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal fibrosis mouse model. Full-length IgG and Fab fragments were intravenously administered in UUO-induced renal fibrosis model mice. The concentrations in each organ and plasma were quantified using enzyme-linked immunoassay. In addition, the localization within the renal interstitium was evaluated by multiple techniques, including intravital and ex vivo confocal imaging under near-living conditions and the observation of the tissue sections via an in vivo cryotechnique. Both full-length IgG and Fab fragments showed higher distribution in fibrotic kidneys than in other organs. Specifically, Fab fragments had excellent selective accumulation in the fibrotic kidneys, whereas full-length IgG had higher absolute distribution due to slower plasma elimination. Imaging assessments revealed that both had widespread localization within the interstitial spaces of the fibrotic kidneys. Due to their superior selectivity for fibrotic kidneys, Fab fragments can be used to target fibrotic lesions. Due to its prolonged distribution, full-length IgG may offer advantages in sustained therapeutic effects. This study provides foundational insights into the distribution of mAbs and their fragments in fibrotic kidneys and underscores the importance of further pharmacokinetic analyses to refine antibody-based therapies.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8865,"journal":{"name":"Biopharmaceutics & Drug Disposition","volume":"46 2","pages":"82-92"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143871730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A pharmacokinetic study was conducted to assess systemic exposure and colon distribution of BDP after oral administration of cMS/BDP to rats. A pharmacodynamic study was carried out to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of cMS/BDP after its oral administration to ulcerative colitis model rats. The particle size of cMS/BDP was calculated to be ca. 20 μm, and most BDP in cMS/BDP might be in an amorphous state. In dissolution tests, cMS/BDP showed pH-dependent release behavior of BDP and marked BDP release at pH 7.4. After oral administration of cMS/BDP (5 mg-BDP/kg) to rats, BDP was rapidly metabolized to beclomethasone 17-monopropionate (17-BMP, a BDP metabolite) in the gastrointestinal tract and liver, and relative oral bioavailability of 17-BMP in the cMS/BDP group was calculated to be ca. 4.8% compared with that in the BDP solution group. The tissue-to-plasma partition coefficient value, an index of colon distribution, for cMS/BDP was found to be 15-fold higher than that for BDP solution. In the cMS/BDP (50 μg/kg) group, colonic myeloperoxidase activity and hyperplasia of the submucosa were negligibly elevated. From these findings, the cMS approach for BDP would be a promising dosage option for strategic colon delivery, leading to an improved therapeutic potential of BDP with a wide safety margin.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8865,"journal":{"name":"Biopharmaceutics & Drug Disposition","volume":"46 2","pages":"58-66"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143810174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method starts with data preprocessing, including normalisation and noise reduction, to enhance the quality of the data.

It is secluded and safeguarded from the external environment as part of the central nervous system (CNS), serving as a sanctuary. By regulating their selective and specific absorption, efflux, and metabolism in the brain, the CNS controls brain homeostasis and the transit of endogenous and foreign substances. The mechanism which protects the brain from environmental chemicals, also prevent the entry of therapeutic chemicals to it. The delivery of molecules to the brain is hindered by several major barriers, such as the blood–brain barrier (BBB), blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB), and blood-tumor barrier. BBB is formed by the combination of cerebral endothelial cells, astrocytes, neurons, pericytes and microglia. It is a tight junction of capillary endothelial cells, preventing the diffusion of solute into the brain. BCSFB is the second barrier, located at the choroid plexus, separating the blood from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is comparatively more permeable than BBB. An uneven distribution of microvasculature across the tumor interstitial compromises drug delivery to neoplastic cells of a solid tumor, resulting in spatially inconsistent drug administration. Nasal drug delivery to the brain is a method of drug delivery that tries to deliver therapeutic substances directly from the nasal cavity to the central nervous system including the brain.
