Interaction of cyclodextrins with fluorescent probes and its application to kinetic studies of amylase.
It was found that 6-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-2-sulfonate (TNS) showed pronounced fluorescence enhancement when it was added to alpha-, beta-, and gamma-cyclodextrin solutions. 2. The following results were obtained by quantitative study of the interactions of three kinds of cyclodextrins with TNS by following TNS fluorescence at pH5.3. and 25 degrees. i) alpha-Cyclodextrin forms a l : l complex with TNS. ii) beta- and gamma-Cyclodextrins form 1 : 1 and also 2 : 1 complexes; in the latter two cyclodextrin molecules bind to one TNS molecule. iii) The dissociation constants of cyclodextrin-TNS complexes were determined to be 54.9 mM for alpha-cyclodextrin, 0.65 mM for beta-cyclodextrin and 0.66 mM for gamma-cyclodextrin in the 1 : 1 complex, and the secondary dissociation constants in the 2 : 1 complex were 71.4 mM for beta-cyclodextrin in the 1 : 1 complex, and the secondary dissociation constants in the 2 : 1 complex were 71.4 mM for beta-cyclodextrin and 32.6 mM for gamma-cyclodextrin. iv)...

Stereochemical studies of chiral H-1 antagonists of histamine: the resolution, chiral analysis, and biological evaluation of four antipodal pairs.
The resolution of the H-1 antihistamines chloropheniramine, dimethindene, carbinoxamine, and mebrophenhydramine is described. The optical purity of antipodal products is investigated by chiral HPLC (use of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein and beta-cyclodextrin columns) and NMR (spectra of beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes). Configurational relationships among the group are reviewed and assignments are confirmed and extended by circular dichroism evidence. Affinity constants of antipodal pairs for guinea pig ileum and cerebellum sites, determined by gut bath and binding experiments respectively, are reported together with some in vivo tests in man for central effects. Results are discussed in terms of configurational requirements for activity and variations in antipodal potency ratios within the group.

Controlled drug permeation I: controlled release of butamben through silicone membrane by complexation.
The effects of caffeine, beta-cyclodextrin, and povidone on the permeation behavior of butamben from saturated solutions in these complexing agents through a dimethyl polysiloxane membrane were investigated at 30 degrees. In all systems, these agents increased the rate of release over the plain saturated drug solution. The effect was more pronounced with caffeine and beta-cyclodextrin than with povidone. Interpretation of these results with the aid of solubility data for the corresponding systems led to the following generalization. For a fixed total (free and complexed) amount of drug available for release, sustained release is associated with systems containing more stable complexes. The practical value of this approach to the controlled release of drug is discussed.

Utilization of cyclodextrin complexation for separation of E, A, and B prostaglandins by ion-exchange liquid chromatography.
Application of cyclodextrin complexation to the separation of E-, A-, and B-type prostaglandins by ion-exchange liquid chromatography is demonstrated. The addition of alpha-or beta-cyclodextrin into the mobile phase on an anion-exchange support decreased the retention times of the prostaglandins significantly because of soluble complex formation. Chromatographic separation behavior is discussed on the basis of the stability of the inclusion complex. A rapid and sensitive method for the separation and quantification of the prostaglandins, using beta-cyclodextrin in the mobile phase, is described.

Fluorescence enhancement of two terpenes commonly present in essential oils.
The fluorescence spectra of anethole and eugenol dissolved in methanol-aqueous binary systems with the addition of alpha- and beta-cyclodextrin were studied. Observed enhancement of the fluorescence intensity is possibly due to the higher quantum yield of the cyclodextrin-hydrocarbon inclusion complexes. The measured fluorescence intensities for eugenol and anethole in the presence of alpha- and beta-cyclodextrin were processed using principal component analysis. The results obtained suggest 1:1 and 2:1 complexation, as confirmed by a double reciprocal plot for terpenes complexed to cyclodextrins. In both cases (anethole and eugenol) detection limits were improved after addition of cyclodextrins. This phenomenon can be applied for improvement of direct fluorescence and HPLC-fluorescence assays.

A new cyclodextrin-agar medium for surface cultivation of microbes on lipophilic substrates.
Inclusion of cyclodextrins into an agar gel enabled a homogeneous incorporation of water-immiscible lipophilic organic liquids and solids as substrates for surface microbial growth or conversion. Surface cultivation of Candida lipolytica and C. tropicalis was demonstrated in alpha- and beta-cyclodextrin/hexadecane-agar media.

Purification and some properties of a novel maltohexaose-producing exo-amylase from Aerobacter aerogenes.
Maltohexaose producing amylase (EC 3.2.1.-) is the fourth known exo-amylase, the three previously known being glucoamylase, beta-amylase and Pseudomonas stutzeri maltotetraose producing amylase. The enzyme after release from Aerobacter aerogenes cells by 0.1% sodium lauryl sulfate extraction was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration to 80-fold of the original sodium lauryl sulfate extract activity, It gave a single band on disc electrophoresis, and the molecular weight by gel filtration was 54 000. This amylase showed maximal activity at 50 degrees C and pH 6.80. The pH stability range was relatively wide, the enzyme retaining more than 90% of its initial activity in the range of 6.50-9.0. 80% of the activity was retained after 15 min at 50 degrees C. This enzyme produced maltohexaose from starch, amylose and amylopectin by exo-attack, but did not act on alpha- or beta-cyclodextrin, pullulan or maltohexaitol. Also the enzyme acted on beta-limit dextrins of amylopectin and glycogen to form branched oligosaccharides. The unusual reaction of this enzyme on beta-limit dextrin is discussed from the standpoint of the stereochemistry of 1,4-alpha- and 1,6-alpha-glucosidic bonds. This is the anomalous amylase for which it is recognized that 1,6-alpha-glucosidic linkages in the substrates can mimic the effect of 1,4-alpha-bonds, as previously observed in pseudo-priming reactions of E. coli phosphorylase.

The determination of the geometric isomers and related impurities of dothiepin in a pharmaceutical preparation by capillary electrophoresis.
The application of capillary zone electrophoresis in the assay of the tricyclic antidepressant drug, dothiepin, in tablets is discussed. The method developed for dothiepin which exists as the cis- and trans-isomers and contains two major related impurities, an 11-oxo compound and a propanamine, utilizes inclusion complexation with beta-cyclodextrin. For optimization of the method the structured procedure of factorial design was used; the electrolyte solution was 50 mM disodium hydrogen phosphate with 10 mM beta-cyclodextrin-propan-1-ol(90:10, v/v). Good precision (RSD = 1.06%, n = 6), linearity (y = 26.84x + 2.25), and correlation (r = 0.999, n = 7) was obtained for trans-dothiepin. The reproducibility of tablet extraction was also acceptable (RSD = 0.77%, n = 6); the recovery of the trans-isomer was 98% (w/w) and the level of cis-isomer in tablets of dothiepin (75 mg) was 5.58% (w/w).

Evaluation of six chiral stationary phases in LC for their selectivity towards drug enantiomers.
Six chiral stationary phases (CSP) were evaluated for their enantioselectivity towards a series of 45 drugs with different acidic, basic or neutral properties. These CSPs were: a polyacrylamide phase, Chiraspher; two polysaccharide-based phases, cellulose tris-3,5-dimethyl phenylcarbamate (Chiralcel OD) and the S-naphthylethylcarbamate derivative of beta-cyclodextrin (SN-beta-CD; Cyclobond I SN); and three protein-based CSPs--alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (Chiral-AGP), ovomucoid (OVM) and cellulase. A total of 28 different mobile phases were involved. Chiral-AGP, OVM and Chiralcel OD appeared to be the most promising CSPs for the enantio separation of the series of structurally different compounds evaluated. Cellulase and Chiralcel OD show particularly high enantioselectivity towards the group of beta-blocker drugs. The different protein-based CSPs were used in their usual reversed-phase mode. The other phases were used in combination with apolar mobile phases, except for SN-beta-CD, which was evaluated in both modes. Formal optimization strategies were not adopted, although the effect of organic modifier and eluent pH on enantioselectivity was briefly examined for the protein-based phases.

Comb-like derivatives of amylose having (1-6)-linked malto-oligosaccharide side-chains.
The preparation of acetylated glycosyl bromide derivatives of the higher malto-oligosaccharides was studied by using beta-cyclodextrin or linear malto-oligosaccharides of d.p. 6 and 7. The products were treated with 2,3-di-O-phenylcarbamoyl-6O-tritylamylose in the presence of silver perchlorate (reaction A), and with 2,3-di-O-phenylcarbamoylamylose in the presence of mercuric cyanide and mercuric bromide (reaction B). After removal of the substituents, the branched molecules were characterized by their iodine-binding properties, beta-amylolytic degradation, and their priming activity in phosphorolytic synthesis. The distance between the branch points of the backbone chain was 25-55 and 100-150 units in the products from reactions A and B, respectively. Thus, the frequency of branching was considerably lower than in the comb-like molecules having D-glucose side-chains previously described.

Evidence for intermediate formation in the mechanism of potato starch -hosphorylase from exchange of the ester and phosphoryl oxygens of alpha-D-glucopyranose 1-phosphate.
We have examined under a variety of conditions the ability of potato starch phosphorylase to cause exchange of the ester and phosphoryl oxygens of alpha-D-glucopyranose 1-phosphate (Glc-1-P). In the presence of phosphorylase and strach, under conditions where 40-50% of the glc-1-P is consumed in starch elongation, little if any exchange occurs that cannot be accounted for by accompanying starch phosphorolysis. Nor are the oxygens scrambled in the same or longer times by enzyme only when no release of inorganic phosphate occurs. But when D-maltotriose is used as a primer, or during primerless synthesis, and in the presence of phosphorylase and alpha- or beta-cyclodextrin, a large degree of scrambling does occur. We conclude that under these latter conditions a glucosyl cation or covalent glycosyl-enzyme intermediate in formed. If this same intermediate is formed in the absence of starch or its analogue, then the phosphate counterion is not free to rotate; if the intermediate is formed with starch, then again one must assume that the rotation of phosphate ion is hindered, or that formation of the intermediate is rate determining.

Reversible inhibition of the fatty acid synthetase complex from Mycobacterium smegmatis by palmitoyl-coenzyme A.
Palmitoyl-CoA dissociates the fatty acid synthetase complex from Mycobacterium smegmatis into inactive subunits of molecular weight 250,000 as determined by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Palmitoyl-CoA binds to the subunits but the binding can be prevented and reversed by the mycobacterial 3-O-methylmannose-containing polysaccharide. When the palmitoyl-CoA containing inactive subunits were isolated by gel filtration on Sepharose 6B, and then concentrated and dialyzed against 0.5 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, containing 3 mM of the complexing agent heptakis-(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin, activity was regenerated to the level of 40 percent of a control sample. The reversibility of the dissociation and inactivation of the synthetase by palmitoyl-CoA suggests that this end product might play a regulatory role by acting as a feedback inhibitor.

Cyclodextrin nephrosis in the rat.
The renal toxicity of the Schardinger dextrins, alpha and beta-cyclodextrin, is manifested as a series of alterations in the vacuolar organelles of the proximal convoluted tubule. These changes begin as an increase of apical vacuoles and the appearance of giant lysosomes. The giant lysosomes characteristic of cyclodextrin nephrosis are notable because of the prominent acicular microcrystals embedded in the lysosomal matrix. Giant vacuoles devoid of acid phosphatase reaction product are found in advanced lesions. The vacuolar apparatus shows advanced changes prior to manifestation of lesions in mitochondria and other organelles. These observations indicate a role of the vacuologenic apparatus in the nephrotic process. Intracellular concentration of toxin via the lysosomal pathway represents a perversion of the physiologic function of the proximal tubule which ultimately leads to cell death.

Studies on the fatty acid inactivation of phosphofructokinase.
Investigation of phosphofructokinase in normal and regenerating livers led to the discovery of an inactivating factor in the extracts of these livers. The inactivating factor was found to be a mixture of free fatty acids. The fatty acid compositions of the normal and regenerating livers are the same, but the concentrations of most of the fatty acids are at least 3 to 4 times higher in the latter. Inactivation of phosphofructokinase by palmitate and oleate was investigated using purified rabbit muscle enzyme. Incubation of the enzyme with palmitate (250 muM) or oleate (50 muM) resulted in rapid inactivation of the enzyme with biphasic curves. The concentrations of oleate and palmitate required to produce 50% inactivation of the enzyme were 35 muM and 75 muM, respectively. Fructose-6-P (0.5 mM), MgATP, (1 mM), fructose-1,6-P2 (1 mM), AMP (1 mM), and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (20 muM) protected the enzyme against inactivation when these metabolites were incubated with the enzyme before the addition of fatty acid. Bovine serum albumin (100 muM) and beta-cyclodextrin (0.25 mM) also protected the enzyme against the inactivation. However, if the enzyme was inactivated by fatty acid, subsequent addition of the above metabolites or bovine serum albumin did not reactivate the enzyme. Binding studies with [3H]oleate revealed at least three types of binding sites. The first site binds 2 to 4 mol of oleate/mol of enzyme. Oleate binding to this site did not seem to affect the enzyme activity. The second binding site binds 5 to 15 mol of oleate/mol of enzyme resulting in complete loss of the activity. This is followed by an increase in oleate binding to the third site of the enzyme. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation of oleate-inactivated enzyme indicated that the enzyme dissociated to the dimeric form. Similarly, centrifugation of [3H]oleate-treated enzyme revealed that all polymeric forms of phosphofructokinase bound approximately 6 to 8 mol of oleate/mol of enzyme. In the presence of fructose-6-P, oleate is bound to the polymers to a lesser degree and therefore protects against the fatty acid inactivation. Various polymers which are cross-linked with dimethylsuberimidate are also inhibited by oleate.

N.m.r. study on the formation and geometry of inclusion complexes of 6-O-(alpha-maltosyl)cyclomalto-hexaose and -heptaose with p-nitrophenol in aqueous solution.
The formation and molecular geometry of inclusion complexes of some branched cyclomaltaoses with p-nitrophenol in aqueous solution have been investigated by using high-resolution 1H-n.m.r. spectroscopy. 6-O-(alpha-Maltosyl)cyclomalto-hexaose and -heptaose were found to form 1:1 inclusion complexes with p-nitrophenol, and the dissociation constants for their complexes are quite similar to those for corresponding unbranched cyclomaltaose-p-nitrophenol complexes, indicating that formation of these inclusion complexes is not hampered by the maltosyl branch. From measurement of nuclear Overhauser enhancements, it was concluded that the maltosyl branch is not situated over the entrance of the cavity.

Inhibitory effect of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin on crystal-growth of nifedipine during storage: superior dissolution and oral bioavailability compared with polyvinylpyrrolidone K-30.
To prevent the crystal-growth of nifedipine during storage, 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CyD) was employed as a hydrophilic drug carrier and compared with polyvinylpyrrolidone K-30 (PVP). Amorphous nifedipine powders were prepared by spray-drying with HP-beta-CyD or PVP, and their crystal-growing behaviour at accelerated storage conditions were examined by X-ray diffraction analysis and microscopy. Although PVP initially retarded the crystallization of nifedipine, it failed to control the increase of crystal size after prolonged storage at 60 degrees C, 75% r.h., resulting in a remarkable decrease in dissolution rate in water. In sharp contrast, a relatively fine and uniform size of nifedipine crystals was maintained in the HP-beta-CyD system even after accelerated storage conditions. The enhanced dissolution observed for all the HP-beta-CyD systems in a dissolution medium containing 0.1% non-ionic surfactant HCO-60 were clearly reflected in the in-vivo absorption of nifedipine following oral administration to dogs. These results suggest that HP-beta-CyD is particularly useful in solving problems encountered on storage of amorphous nifedipine in solid dosage forms.

Improved transdermal delivery of prostaglandin E1 through hairless mouse skin: combined use of carboxymethyl-ethyl-beta-cyclodextrin and penetration enhancers.
The optimal prescription of transdermal preparations of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) for treatment of peripheral vascular diseases has been investigated. The chemical stability of PGE1 in fatty alcohol/propylene glycol (FAPG) ointment was markedly improved by carboxymethyl-ethyl-beta-cyclodextrin (CME-beta-CyD). Application of a PGE1 ointment containing the penetration enhancer, 1-dodecylazacycloheptane-2-one (Azone) or 1-[2-(decylthio)ethyl]azacyclopentane-2-one (HPE-101), onto the skin of hairless mice showed the increase of blood flow in the skin due to the vasodilating action of PGE1. In particular, the ointment containing a PGE1-CME-beta-CyD complex supplemented with HPE-101 showed the most prominent increase of the blood flow. Compared with other ointments, this ointment was found to show significantly greater transfer of HPE-101 into in-vitro preparations of the skin of hairless mice. Transfer of PGE1 into the skin was thought to be facilitated by this increased transfer of HPE-101. These results suggest that a combination of CME-beta-CyD and HPE-101 is useful for designing PGE1 ointments for topical application with good chemical stability and percutaneous permeability.
