Gastric bypass surgery shortens the length of the intestine, possibly leading to altered drug absorption. Metformin, a first-line treatment for type II diabetes, has permeability-dependent drug absorption, which may be sensitive to intestinal anatomic changes during bypass surgery, including Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Previous computer simulation data indicate increased metformin absorption after RYGB. In this study, we experimentally determined the region-dependent permeability of metformin, using the rat single-pass intestinal perfusion method (SPIP), which we then implemented into GastroPlusTM to assess the contribution of our SPIP data to post-RYGB metformin absorption modeling. Previous simulations allowed a good fit with in vivo literature data on healthy and obese control subjects. However, it was revealed that for post-RYGB drug absorption predictions, simply excluding the duodenum\/jejunum is insufficient, as the software underestimates the observed plasma concentrations post-RYGB. By implementing experimentally determined segmental-dependent permeabilities for metformin in the remaining segments post-surgery, GastroPlusTM proved to fit the observed plasma concentration profile, making it a useful tool for predicting drug absorption after gastric bypass. Reliable evaluation of the parameters dictating drug absorption is required for the accurate prediction of overall absorption after bariatric surgery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pharmaceutics13111873","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,7]],"date-time":"2021-11-07T20:42:54Z","timestamp":1636317774000},"page":"1873","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Optimized In Silico Modeling of Drug Absorption after Gastric Bypass: The Case of Metformin"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3498-3514","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arik","family":"Dahan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Porat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3998-1833","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Milica","family":"Markovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Moran","family":"Zur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olga","family":"Kister","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biopharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, 55099 Mainz, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Langguth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biopharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, 55099 Mainz, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"879","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2020.12567","article-title":"Benefits and Risks of Bariatric Surgery in Adults: A Review","volume":"324","author":"Arterburn","year":"2020","journal-title":"JAMA"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1535","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa2002449","article-title":"Life Expectancy after Bariatric Surgery in the Swedish Obese Subjects Study","volume":"383","author":"Carlsson","year":"2020","journal-title":"N.
