Self-nanoemulsifying system improves oral absorption and enhances anti-acute myeloid leukemia activity of berberine

Abstract Background Recently, we found that berberine (BBR) exerts anti-acute myeloid leukemia activity, particularly toward high-risk and relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia MV4-11 cells in vitro. However, the poor water solubility and low bioavailability observed with oral BBR administratio...
