Abstract

1. The somatostatin octapeptide-analogue, octreotide, is absorbed as intact peptide from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. 2. In situ absorption experiments in rats confirmed our recent intubation studies in human volunteers demonstrating that the peptide has preferential absorption sites in the small intestine. Absorption of octreotide was higher in the jejunum than in the duodenum or the ileum. 3. Experiments with bile-duct cannulated rats demonstrated that the absorption of octreotide decreased in the presence of bile, reflecting a negative influence of biliary components on the absorption of the peptide. 4. Uptake experiments using rat jejunal brush border membranes were performed to analyse the absorption mechanisms. The transport of octreotide into jejunal brush border membranes was significantly higher than the uptake into membrane vesicles isolated from rat ileum. When initial uptake (0-15s) rates into the membrane vesicles were calculated as a function of the peptide concentration, a saturable component could be observed, indicative of transport mechanisms different from simple diffusion.
