The present study was undertaken to elucidate the kidney- and site-selective delivery of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) utilizing the absorption on the kidney surface in rats. An experimental system utilizing a cylindrical diffusion cell attached to the right kidney surface was established. After intravenous administration of 5-FU, the concentration of 5-FU in the right and left kidneys was almost the same and was rapidly eliminated. After right kidney surface application of 5-FU, however, the concentration of 5-FU in the right kidney was significantly higher than in the left kidney and other tissues. The 5-FU concentration in four sites of the right kidney after intravenous administration was almost the same. In contrast, 5-FU was site selectively delivered in the kidney after kidney surface application. The blood concentration of 5-FU was low (<1.7 microg/ml) until 120 min after kidney surface application. The maximum blood concentration of 5-FU after kidney surface application was much lower than after intravenous administration.
