Purpose. Simultaneous skin transport and metabolism of ethyl nicotinate (EN), a model drug, were measured and theoretically analyzed. Methods. Several studies of EN or its metabolite nicotinic acid (NA) were done on full-thickness skin or stripped skin with and without an esterase inhibitor. Permeation parameters such as partion coefficient of EN from the donor solution to the stratum corneum and diffusion coefficients of EN and NA in the stratum corneum and the viable epidermis and dermis were determined by these studies. Enzymatic parameters (Michaelis constant K(m) and maximum metabolism rate V(max)) were obtained from the production rate of NA from different concentrations of EN in the skin homogenate. Obtained permeation data were then analyzed by numerical method based on differential equations showing Fick's second law of diffusion in the stratum corneum and the law with Michaelis-Menten metabolism in the viable epidermis and dermis. Results. Fairly good steady-state fluxes of EN and NA through the skin were obtained after a short lag time for all the concentrations of EN applied. These steady-state fluxes were not proportional to the initital donor concentration of EN: EN and NA curves were concave and convex, respectively, which suggests that metabolic saturation from EN to NA takes place in the viable skin at higher EN application. The steady-state fluxes of EN and NA calculated by the differential equations with resulting permeation and enzymatic parameters were very close to the obtained data. Conclusions. The present method is a useful tool to analyze simultaneous transport and metabolism of many drugs and prodrugs, especially those showing Michaelis-Menten type-metabolic saturation in skin.
