- Subcutaneous injection
- 250–500mcg once daily
- Systemic circulation and peripheral tissues
- 20–30 minutes plasma; 2–4 hours tissue-bound
- Chronic systemic inflammation, metabolic endotoxemia, autoimmune modulation
- Best for systemic anti-inflammatory research; predictable pharmacokinetics; requires daily administration for sustained effect
- Oral administration
- 500mcg–1mg once or twice daily
- Gastrointestinal mucosa
- 10–15 minutes (first-pass degradation reduces bioavailability by 60–80%)
- Inflammatory bowel disease models, gut dysbiosis, colonic pathogen studies
- Highest local GI concentration; significant first-pass loss; ideal for targeting intestinal inflammation directly
- Topical application
- 0.1–0.5% formulation (1–5mg/g) applied twice daily
- Dermal and epidermal layers
- Local tissue retention 4–6 hours; minimal systemic absorption
- Skin inflammation, atopic dermatitis, dermal pathogen colonisation
- Localises effect to skin; avoids systemic exposure; requires specialised formulation for stability and penetration
