Abstract
A cyclosporine derivative, dihydrocyclosporine D, was used for the eva luation of milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) as an emulsifier of lipoph ilic cyclopeptides. As compared with olive oil formulation, MFGM emuls ion significantly enhanced the blood and lymphatic fluid concentration s of the cyclosporine derivative after intraduodenal dosing in rats. T hus, it was suggested that MFGM can be used as an intestinal absorptio n enhancer of cyclosporines.
