| Abstract | 1. We have used mice with a disrupted mdr 1a P-glycoprotein gene (mdr 1a (-/-) mice) to study the role of P-glycoprotein in the pharmacokinetics of digoxin, a model P-glycoprotein substrate. 2. [3H]-digoxin at a dose of 0.2 mg kg-1 was administered as a single i.v. or oral bolus injection. We focussed on intestinal mucosa and brain endothelial cells, two major pharmacological barriers, as the mdr 1a P-glycoprotein is the only P-glycoprotein normally present in these tissues. 3. Predominant faecal excretion of [3H]-digoxin in wild-type mice shifted towards predominantly urinary excretion in mdr 1a (-/-) mice. 4. After interruption of the biliary excretion into the intestine, we found a substantial excretion of [3H]-digoxin via the gut mucosa in wild-type mice (16% of administered dose over 90 min). This was only 2% in mdr 1a (-/-) mice. Biliary excretion of [3H]-digoxin was not dramatically decreased (24% in wild-type mice versus 16% in mdr 1a (-/-) mice). 5. After a single bolus injection, brain levels of [3H]-digoxin in wild-type mice remained very low, whereas in mdr 1a (-/-) mice these levels continuously increased over a period of 3 days, resulting in a approximately 200 fold higher concentration than in wild-type mice. 6. These data demonstrate the in vivo contribution of intestinal P-glycoprotein to direct elimination of [3H]-digoxin from the systemic circulation and to the pattern of [3H]-digoxin disposition, and they underline the importance of P-glycoprotein for the blood-brain barrier. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
