Polyphyllin I (PPI), one of the steroidal saponins inParis polyphylla, is a promising natural anticancer candidate. Although the anticancer activity of PPI has been well demonstrated, information regarding the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability is limited. In this study, a series of reliable and rapid liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry methods were developed and successfully applied to determinate PPI in rat plasma, cell incubation media and cell homogenate. Then the pharmacokinetics of PPI in rats was studied and the result revealed that PPI was slowly eliminated with low oral bioavailability (about 0.62%) at a dose of 50 mg/kg, and when co-administrated with verapamil (VPL) and cyclosporine A (CYA), the oral bioavailability of PPI could increase from 0.62% to 3.52% and 3.79% respectively. In addition, in vitro studies showed that with the presence of VPL and CYA in Caco-2 cells, the efflux ratio of PPI decreased from 12.5 to 2.96 and 2.22, and the intracellular concentrations increased 5.8- and 5.0-fold respectively. These results demonstrated that PPI, with poor oral bioavailability, is greatly impeded byP-gp efflux, and inhibition ofP-gp can enhance its bioavailability.
