The absorption of insulin (from porcine pancreas) in rabbits after the nasal administration of aqueous preparations containing insulin and five kinds of cyclodextrins (CyDs) in phosphate buffer solution at pH 7.0 was investigated.Without CyD, the insulin and glucose levels in plasma were unchanged, whereas a marked increase in the plasma levels of insulin and a decrease in glucose concentrations were observed following the simultaneous administration of insulin and CyD such as α- and heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-CyD (DM-β-CyD). The largest enhancing effect on the nasal absorption of insulin was obtained by DM-β-CyD. To evaluate the duration of the absorption-enhancing effect of CyDs, preadministration (administration of CyD 0.5,6,12 and 24 h before insulin administration) was performed. The area under plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and C_<max> of insulin significantly decreased with the preadministration of DM-β-CyD 6,12 and 24 h before nasal administration. The absorption-enhancing effect disappeared 24 h after the preadministration. These findings demonstrate that CyDs enhance the nasal absorption of insulin, and the recovery of the membrane transport barrier function in nasal mucosa is achieved, at the latest, 24 h after the administration of CyDs.
