Claims
- 1. A biological vehicle for the delivery of one or more biologically active agents, said vehicle comprising at least one compound that enhances the bioavailability of said biological agents, at least one compound that enhances intracellular signaling processes, and at least one compound that enhances cell proliferation and cell survival.
- 2. The biological vehicle of claim 1 wherein said compound that enhances the bioavailability of said active agent acts by increasing the permeability of gastrointestinal epithelial cells to said active biological ingredient.
- 3. The biological vehicle of claim 1 wherein said compound that enhances the bioavailability of said active agent acts as a bioadhesive polymer, wherein said bioadhesive polymer binds to and coordinates said active biological agents; whereby said coordination increases the delivery of said active biological agents to the cell surface.
