Abstract: Objective: To study the tissue distribution of ostholon rats and to provide bases for clinical applications. Methods:  After osthol was administered to rats (30, 120 mg·kg-1 ;ip), the concentration of osthol in rat tissues after different time was determined by RP-HPLC. Results: Osthol distributed rapidly in the tissues after ip: eight tissues can detect osthol after 5 min. Heart, liver, lung and kidney all reached Cmax in 10 min. When the dose is increased 4 folds, Tpeaks of osthol in tissues had no significant changes, except the concentration and elimination time increased slightly corresponding to the same time-point. Conclusion: Osthol was distributed rapidly and extensively in the rat’s body and may pass through blood-brain-barrier and blood-testis-barrier.
