腸道是人體吸收葡萄糖的主要地方，亦是消化乳糖酵素(Lactase）的聚居地。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6CykIyWh3
缺乏Lactase的人並不建議進食含有乳糖的產品，否則會釀起肚痾、腹痛、作嘔等症狀，學名為Lactose Intolerance。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTAmEhtIjv

同時，腸道亦是寄生蟲的蝸居，飲用不乾淨水的話有機會讓血吸蟲寄生在腸道之中，引起血吸蟲病（Schistosomiasis)，為全球第二大僅次於瘧疾(Malaria)的寄生蟲病。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhiV2fQiFi

（圖2）近日，有科學家發表文章（Ref1)，他們研發出一款口服藥物，主要利用豬隻作為動物模型，證實豬隻吞下藥物後的12分鐘會腸道形成厚膜。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBlz4yF7Rz

此厚膜不會在其他器官上形成，而在24小時後厚膜亦會自然脫落，排出體外。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbgJa9gVGa

（圖3）根據口服藥物的配方不同，厚膜的特性亦能隨之轉變。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyavPTCw1D

厚膜可配載消化乳糖酵素(Lactase)，對比沒有厚膜，能增強20倍酵素的能力，可消除Lactose Intolerance的問題。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqohosoybA

而增強厚膜密度的話，亦可減少腸道吸收葡萄糖七成能力，這特點尤其受益於糖尿病人，能大幅度阻上血糖飄升。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R2UfPCdY2

另外，厚膜亦可配載殺寄生蟲藥(Praziquantel)，增加藥物滯留在腸道的時間，更有效率殺滅寄生蟲。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsfki6VlSc

（圖4）最為振奮的是，此方法在人類腸道組織亦見效，而且藥物對各種實驗室人體細胞亦無呈現有害效果。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcyxOItJZZ

老鼠服用藥物28日後，體重血壓等一切正常。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalkbgSoSaI
990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnqmTPTWI3
若然此藥物能進一步在人類進行試驗的話，確立藥物運作正常及不會帶來任何副作用或安全問題的話，絕對大有潛質會成為治理糖尿病的新一代藥物。990Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDFFNvijtt
