Enantioselective separation methods and the enantioselective determination of the anti-allergic drug azelastine and of three of its main phase I metabolites in a biological matrix underwent chromatographic and electrophoretic investigations. An enantioselective assay of a coupling of HPLC using a beta-cyclodextrin chiral stationary phase to ionspray tandem mass spectrometry is presented. Additionally, this assay is compared to another enantioselective assay using electrokinetic capillary chromatography with beta-cyclodextrin and carboxymethyl-beta-cyclodextrin in polyacrylamide-coated capillaries. For capillary electrophoresis (CE) the importance of polyacrylamide coating for the validation of this separation method is highlighted. Extracted rat plasma samples of enantioselective metabolism studies were measured by both validated assays. Differences in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were evaluated for the main substance azelastine and its main metabolite demethylazelastine. So, a first hint about the enantioselectivity of biotransformation of azelastine in rats was seen after oral application of either enantiomer or the racemate to rats. 相似文献

Many pathogens utilize the formation of transmembrane pores in target cells in the process of infection. A great number of pore-forming proteins, both bacterial and viral, are considered to be important virulence factors, which makes them attractive targets for the discovery of new therapeutic agents. Our research is based on the idea that compounds designed to block the pores can inhibit the action of virulence factors, and that the chances to find high affinity blocking agents increase if they have the same symmetry as the target pore. Recently, we demonstrated that derivatives of beta-cyclodextrin inhibited anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx) action by blocking the transmembrane pore formed by the protective antigen (PA) subunit of the toxin. To test the broader applicability of this approach, we sought beta-cyclodextrin derivatives capable of inhibiting the activity of Staphylococcus aureus alpha-hemolysin (alpha-HL), which is regarded as a major virulence factor playing an important role in staphylococcal infection. We identified several amino acid derivatives of beta-cyclodextrin that inhibited the activity of alpha-HL and LeTx in cell-based assays at low micromolar concentrations. One of the compounds was tested for the ability to block ion conductance through the pores formed by alpha-HL and PA in artificial lipid membranes. We anticipate that this approach can serve as the basis for a structure-directed drug discovery program to find new and effective therapeutics against various pathogens that utilize pore-forming proteins as virulence factors. 相似文献

A capillary electrophoresis (CE) method for the enantioseparation of phenylglycidates has been developed. Successful enantioseparation was achieved using sulfated beta-cyclodextrin as chiral selector in a phosphate buffer. The effects of varying pH, sulfated beta-cyclodextrin concentration and electrophoresis voltage were systematically investigated and the optimized separation conditions were thus obtained. When the migration time was set at the threshold value, it was found that the best enantioseparation was obtained at 10 kV with 3% (w/v) sulfated beta-cyclodextrin at pH 6.5. A range of substituted phenylglycidates were successfully separated using the method and the results shown to be superior to those obtained using gas chromatography (GC). 相似文献

Complexation of alkyl derivatives of 5-ethyl-5-phenyl-2-thiobarbituric acid (2-thiophenobarbital) enantiomers by beta-cyclodextrin was investigated by the AM1 method. The inclusion complexes of beta-cyclodextrin with neutral and anionic forms of these enantiomers have been modeled and energetically optimized. The chiral discrimination of enantiomers was analyzed in terms of differences in the interaction energies. The calculated interaction energies between each enantiomer of the investigated 2-thiobarbiturates and beta-cyclodextrin confirm the ability of beta-cyclodextrin to act as a mobile phase additive in reversed-phase HPLC to separate enantiomers by liquid chromatography and rationalize their order of elution. 相似文献

Differential complexation of fenoprofen enantiomers by cyclomaltoheptaose (beta-cyclodextrin) was investigated by Monte Carlo docking simulations. The chiral discrimination of (R)- and (S)-fenoprofen by beta-cyclodextrin was discussed in terms of the difference in the interaction energies and the patterns of molecular interactions. The interaction energies between each enantiomer of fenoprofen and beta-cyclodextrin were consistent with the reported experimental results that showed that the S isomer interacted preferentially with beta-cyclodextrin and was retained longer in a separation process than the R isomer. The thermodynamic preference of inclusion complex formation of (S)-fenoprofen could be explained by the orientation of the phenyl group attached to the chiral carbon, which provided closer contact and thus more favorable intermolecular interactions between the host and guest molecule. The results presented here would be very useful for the prediction of chiral recognition ability of beta-cyclodextrin. 相似文献

The inclusion of phloridzin into beta-cyclodextrin was studied as a model of molecular recognition in membranes. Effects on 1H NMR spectra and NOE correlational peaks between phloridzin and beta-cyclodextrin were observed in the complex. Strong NOEs were observed between hydrogens of a phenol group in phloridzin and beta-cyclodextrin. The three-dimensional structure of the inclusion complex between phloridzin and beta-cyclodextrin was simulated with distance constraints estimated by the intensity of NOE peaks using the DADAS90 programs. Two inclusion possibilities were suggested-the large rim of beta-cyclodextrin as an entrance of the inclusion and the small rim of beta-cyclodextrin as the entrance. In both cases, the phenol group of phloridzin was included in the hydrophobic space of beta-cyclodextrin. 相似文献

A spectroscopic displacement method is used to determine association constants of beta-cyclodextrin with compounds that are spectroscopically transparent. These compounds are adamantanecarboxylate and structurally related compounds. Association constants obtained are compared to values obtained by other methods. It is shown that for all types of displacement techniques a distinction must be made between free and total concentrations of ligand in cases of strong binding. 相似文献

Tapping-mode atomic force microscopy imaging under different cantilever vibration amplitudes has been used to differentiate the host beta-cyclodextrin nanotubes from retinal/beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complex nanotubes. It was observed that both compounds were deformed differently by the applied probe force because of their different local rigidity. This change in the elasticity properties can be explained as a consequence of the inclusion process. This method shows that tapping-mode atomic force microscopy is an useful tool to map soft sample elasticity properties and to distinguish inclusion complexes from their host molecules on the basis of their different mechanical response. 相似文献

We have used UV difference spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy to study the perturbation by beta-cyclodextrin of tyrosyl or tryptophyl residues located at each of the 10 variable consensus contact positions in the third domain of turkey ovomucoid. The goal was to monitor the accessibility of the side chain rings of these residues when located at these positions. The results indicated that the tyrosyl or tryptophyl rings are most highly exposed when located in the P1 position followed by the P4 position. It was possible to determine the association constants for beta-cyclodextrin binding at these positions. When located at the P2, P5, P6 and P3' positions, the rings of the tyrosyl or tryptophyl residues were exposed but less so than at the P1 or P4 positions. By contrast, when located at the P1', P2', P14' and P18' positions, the tyrosyl or tryptophyl residues were insufficiently exposed to be perturbed by beta-cyclodextrin, although they reacted positively to dimethyl sulfoxide solvent perturbation. These findings indicate that beta-cyclodextrin perturbation provides a convenient way to detect highly exposed tyrosyls or tryptophyls in proteins. Furthermore, we evaluated the ability of beta-cyclodextrin to inhibit the interaction of turkey ovomucoid third domain variants with different P1 residues. The results showed that the presence of beta-cyclodextrin had little effect on the association constant when the P1 residue was a glycyl residue, but greatly decreased the association constant when the P1 residue was a tyrosyl or tryptophyl residue. Thus, beta-cyclodextrin may be used to selectively modulate the interaction between proteinase inhibitors and their cognate enzymes. 相似文献

The rate and extent of microbial transformation of higher concentrations of benzaldehyde substrate to L-phenylacetyl carbinol (L-PAC) by immobilized cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 834 was markedly stimulated by addition of different concentrations of beta-cyclodextrin (BCD) to the fermentation medium. With 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% BCD in the fermentation medium and cumulative doses of benzaldehyde of 12 and 14 g/L, significantly higher yields of L-PAC were obtained, about one- to twofold that of the yields of the control experiments. The favorable effects of BCD were evident in spite of its presence in stoichiometric concentrations significantly lower than those of benzaldehyde. The presence of BCD also appeared to stimulate microbial growth slightly. Enhanced cellular activity was reflected by faster D-glucose consumption and faster benzaldehyde utilization in the presence of BCD. 相似文献

This study explored the potential of beta-cyclodextrin to improve the aqueous solubility and dissolution of danazol, investigated a simple and less expensive method for preparation of a danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system, and explored the potential application of a danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system as a single-dose emergency contraceptive. Phase solubility analysis indicated formation of a first-order soluble complex with stability constant 972.03 M(-1), while Job's plot affirmed 1:1 stoichiometry. The hyperchromic shift in the UV-Vis spectrum of danazol in the presence of beta-cyclodextrin indicated solubilization capability of beta-cyclodextrin for danazol. The extrinsic Cotton effect with a negative peak at 280.7 nm confirmed the inclusion of danazol in the asymmetric locus of beta-cyclodextrin. (1)H-nuclear magnetic resonance analysis suggested that the protons of the steroidal skeleton of danazol display favorable interactions with the beta-cyclodextrin cavity. The danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system was prepared by kneading, solution, freeze-drying, and milling methods. The extent of the enhancement of dissolution rate was found to be dependent on the preparation method. Dissolution studies showed a similar relative dissolution rate (2.85) of the danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system prepared by the freeze-drying and milling (in the presence of 13% moisture) methods. In a mouse model, the danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system at 51.2 mg/kg (equivalent to a 400-mg human dose) showed 100% inhibition of implantation when given postcoitally. Moreover, the danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system is safe up to 2000 mg/kg in the mouse (15.52 g/70 kg human) as a single oral dose. Thus, the danazol-beta-cyclodextrin binary system could serve as a new therapeutic application: an oral emergency contraceptive at a physiologically acceptable single dose. 相似文献

Interaction of cyclodextrins with fluorescent probes and its application to kinetic studies of amylase. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
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)... 相似文献

beta-Cyclodextrin tetradecasulfate was found to have a very strong affinity for fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and could substitute for heparin in FGF purification. Basic FGF was purified about 200,000-fold from a rat chondrosarcoma using a method of biaffinity chromatography in which the beta-cyclodextrin tetradecasulfate polymer was mixed with copper-Sepharose. This method takes advantage of the strong affinity of FGF for both beta-cyclodextrin tetradecasulfate and copper. 相似文献

Recently, we demonstrated that simultaneous blocking of bacterial growth by antibiotics and inhibition of anthrax toxin action with antibodies against protective antigen were beneficial for the treatment of anthrax. The present study examined the hypothesis that blocking the pore formed by protective antigen can inhibit the action of anthrax toxin. The potential inhibitors were chosen by a structure-based design using beta-cyclodextrin as the starting molecule. Several beta-cyclodextrin derivatives were evaluated for their ability to protect RAW 264.7 cells from the action of anthrax lethal toxin. Per-substituted aminoalkyl derivatives displayed inhibitory activity and were protective against anthrax lethal toxin action at low micromolar concentrations. These results provide the basis for a structure-based drug discovery program, with the goal of identifying new drug candidates for anthrax treatment. 相似文献

Previous studies from this laboratory have demonstrated that low concentrations of cyclodextrins (<1.0 mm), when added to serum, act catalytically as cholesterol shuttles to accelerate the exchange of free cholesterol between cells and serum lipoproteins. As cholesterol shuttles, cyclodextrins have the potential to serve as pharmacological agents for modifying cholesterol metabolism. In the present study, we have quantitated the cholesterol-shuttling capacity of a series of newly synthesized beta-cyclodextrin derivatives (betaCDs), with varying structure, and two double-decker cyclophanes. The general protocol is as follows. [(3)H]cholesterol-labeled CHOK1 cells are incubated for 2 h with the test compounds alone or together with 5% human serum, and efflux of the cellular [(3)H]cholesterol is measured. As methyl beta-cyclodextrin (MbetaCD) served as the basis for comparison, initial experiments were conducted that demonstrated there was a dose-dependent stimulation of cell cholesterol efflux as the concentration of MbetaCD increased, with an EC(50) that was calculated to be 0.05 mm. To determine the cholesterol-shuttling capacity of the newly synthesized compounds, cell cholesterol efflux is measured when the compounds are present alone, at a concentration of 0.05 mm, or together with 5% human serum. Our results demonstrate that the double-decker cyclophanes are the most efficient cholesterol shuttles. Under our experimental conditions, methyl beta-cyclodextrin (MbetaCD) approximately doubles the efflux of cell cholesterol to serum, whereas one of the double-decker cyclophanes produces a 4-fold stimulation in efflux. Four of the beta-cyclodextrin derivatives (betaCDs) display shuttling ability similar to that of MbetaCD. Furthermore, there does not appear to be a structural pattern among the other betaCDs which could explain their shuttling capacity. 相似文献

An unexpected activity of beta-cyclodextrin, an excipient used in pharmaceutical technology, was observed against Cryptosporidium parvum. The viability and infectivity of purified oocysts, exposed for 24 hr to beta-cyclodextrin (2.5% suspension), were evaluated by inclusion/exclusion of 2 fluorogenic vital dyes and a suckling murine model, respectively. Results of the viability assay showed a high proportion of nonviable oocysts (81.5%). The intensity of experimental infection, determined 7 days postinoculation by examination of intestinal homogenates, was significantly lower (P < 0.05) than in the control litters. The preventive and curative efficacies of beta-cyclodextrin suspension were also evaluated in experimentally infected neonatal mice. Infection was prevented when the suspension was administered 2 hr before inoculated oocysts and on days 1 and 2 postinoculation. 相似文献

The synthesis of decanoate beta-cyclodextrin esters (beta-CDd) and hexanoate beta-cyclodextrin esters (beta-CDh) was biocatalyzed by thermolysin from native beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and vinyl hexanoate or vinyl decanoate used as acyl donors. The products were chemically characterized by infrared, NMR, and mass spectrometry. Both beta-CDd and beta-CDh esters were identified as a mixture of beta-CD preferentially substituted on the C2 position by the corresponding acyl chain. The degree of substitution varied from 2 to 7 for beta-CDd and from 4 to 8 for beta-CDh. The ability of beta-CD esters to self-organize into nanoparticles was tested using a nanoprecipitation technique in various solvents. The mean size diameter and polydispersity measured by quasi-elastic light scattering were dramatically affected by the nature of solvent (acetone, ethanol, or tetrahydrofuran) used in the nanoprecipitation technique. When directly observed using cryo-transmission electron microscopy, beta-CDh appeared as uniformly dense nanospheres, whereas beta-CDd exhibited a multilamellar onion-like organization. A structural model was rationalized for the beta-CDd nanoparticles. 相似文献

The interactions of Alzheimer's amyloid beta-peptide with cyclodextrins were studied by (1)H NMR: the translational diffusion coefficient of the peptide and chemical shift changes were studied by the presence of variable concentrations of cyclodextrins. For the full-length peptide, Abeta(1-40), the combined results of translational diffusion and chemical shift changes are consistent with a model where aromatic side chains interact with beta-cyclodextrin with dissociation constants in the millimolar range. The diffusion data were consistent with two beta-cyclodextrin molecules bound per peptide. The binding occurs at two sites, at F(19) and/or F(20) and at Y(10), with dissociation constants K(d)(F) = 4.7 mM and K(d)(Y) = 6.6 mM, respectively, in 10 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.4 and 298 K. Shorter Alzheimer peptide fragments were studied to measure specific affinities for different binding sites. The N-terminal fragment Abeta(1-9) with a putative binding site at F(4) does not show measurable affinity for beta-cyclodextrin. The fragment Abeta(12-28) has similar apparent affinity (K(d) = 3.8 mM) to beta-cyclodextrin as the full-length peptide Abeta(1-40). Here, the diffusion data suggests a one-to-one stoichiometry, and the binding site is F(19) and/or F(20). Both diffusion results and chemical shift changes give the same affinity. A variant Abeta(12-28)G(19)G(20) without phenylalanines does not bind to beta-cyclodextrin. Other potential ligands, alpha-cyclodextrin, gamma-cyclodextrin, nicotine, and nornicotine do not bind to the Abeta(12-28) fragment. This study shows that combined (1)H NMR diffusion and chemical shift changes may be used to quantitatively determine affinities and stoichiometries of weak interactions, using unlabeled ligands and hosts of comparable sizes. 相似文献

A method has been developed to determine the distribution of substituents in the glucose units of sulfonylbutylethers of cyclomaltoheptaose (beta-cyclodextrin). This method involves hydrolysis of the glucosidic linkages, permethylation, formation of sulfonylchlorides and subsequent transformation to the permethylated sulfonylfluoride derivatives. The latter were thermostable and could be analyzed by GLC and identified by EI and CIMS. For confirmation, the 2-, 3-, and 6-O-substituted standard compounds were independently synthesized and characterized by NMR and GLC-MS. 相似文献

The "artificial chaperone method" for protein refolding developed by Rozema et al. (Rozema, D.; Gellman, S. H. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117 (8), 2373-2374) involves the sequential dilution of denatured protein into a buffer containing detergent (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB) and then into a refolding buffer containing cyclodextrin (CD). In this paper a simplified one-step artificial chaperone method is reported, whereby CTAB is added directly to the denatured solution, which is then diluted directly into a refolding buffer containing beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD). This new method can be applied at high protein concentrations, resulting in smaller processing volumes and a more concentrated protein solution following refolding. The increase in achievable protein concentration results from the enhanced solubility of CTAB at elevated temperatures in concentrated denaturant. The refolding yields obtained for the new method were significantly higher than for control experiments lacking additives and were comparable to the yields obtained with the classical two-step approach. A study of the effect of beta-CD and CTAB concentrations on refolding yield suggested two operational regimes: slow stripping (beta-CD/CTAB approximately 1), most suited for higher protein concentrations, and fast stripping (beta-CD/CTAB approximately 2.7), best suited for lower protein concentrations. An increased chaotrope concentration resulted in higher refolding yields and an enlarged operational regime. 相似文献
