Insights Into Gut Barrier Dysfunction and Metabolic Alterations in Mycophenolate‐Induced Enteropathy

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is a widely used immunosuppressant whose use is often limited by gastrointestinal toxicity. Gut bacterial hydrolysis of liver‐derived MPA glucuronides increases local exposure to MPA, potentially impairing epithelial barrier function and cellular metabolism.

Effects of curcumin analogue, 2, 6-bis (2, 5-dimethoxybenzylidene) cyclohexanone (BDMC33) on the activities of drug-metabolizing enzymes in cultured Caco-2 cell model [PDF]

, 2016
Poor systemic delivery of curcumin outside the gut due to its rapid metabolism has severely limited its application to many chronic diseases. Previously, our research group synthesized curcumin analogues 2, 6-bis (2, 5-dimethoxybenzylidene) cyclohexanone
