Effect of 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin on Crystallization and Polymorphic Transition of Nifedipine in Solid State

The glassy state of nifedipine (NP) was prepared in the absence and presence of 2-hydroxypropyl--cyclodextrin (HP--CyD), and its crystallization and polymorphic transition behavior was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and powder X-ray diffractometry. In DSC thermograms, the glassy NP exhibited an en-dothermic peak at 48°C representing the glass transition of NP, an exothermic peak at 105°C for the crystallization to a metastable form of NP (Form B), an exothermic peak at 125°C for the polymorphic transition of Form B to a stable form of NP (Form A), and an endothermic peak at 171°C for the melting of Form A. The powder X-ray diffractogram of Form B was apparently different from that of Form A. In the presence of HP--CyD, the exothermic peak at 125°C for the Form B to A transition disappeared and a new en-dothermic peak appeared at 163°C. This new peak was ascribed to the melting of Form B, and the conversion of Form B to Form A was significantly suppressed in HP--CyD matrix. Upon storage at 60°C, the glassy NP was converted to Form A with an activation energy of 18 kcal/mol. The apparent dissolution rate of the NP/HP--CyD (molar ratio 1:1) increased in the order of glassy NP < Form A < Form B, because the glassy NP was readily converted to Form A upon contact with water, resulting in a lower dissolution rate. The present data suggest that HP--CyD is useful for the preparation of a fast dissolving form of metastable NP through glassy NP.     

Solubilization and Stabilization of a Benzylpenicillin Chemical Delivery System by 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin

A dihydropyridine pyridinium salt redox carrier-based chemical delivery system for benzylpenicillin (1) was complexed with 2-hydroxypropyl--cyclodextrin (HPCD). The solubility of the lipophilic 1, which is incompatible with aqueous formulations, was dramatically increased and showed a linear dependency on the HPCD concentration. The degree of incorporation was 20 mg of 1 per g of complex. The stability study of 1 in various pH buffers indicated the base-catalyzed hydrolysis of the acyloxyalkyl linkage and the hydration of the 5,6 double bond of the dihydropyridine as the main degradation processes. The overall loss of 1, which follows first-order kinetics, was not influenced by changes in ionic strength and elimination of oxygen from the reaction medium. The HPCD complex of 1, which has a stability constant of 720–940 M ^–1, stabilized the chemical delivery system. The influence of the temperature on the stability of 1 is also discussed.     

pD2-, pA2- and pD2'-values of a series of compounds in a histaminic and a cholinergic system.

(1) Affinity and intrinsic activity values of 75 compounds for a histaminergic and a cholinergic system are presented. The quantitative correlations between the affinity values of 35 compounds and some physicochemical constants (Van der Waals volume, lipophilicity, number of hydrogen atoms on the protonated amine) are discussed. (2) Absence of systematic differences between pD2 and pA2 of partial agonists supports the assumption that these values are equivalent expressions of the same affinity. (3) The "mimetic moiety" in a number of the antihistaminic test compounds hardly contributes to their affinity. The affinity mainly depends on an interaction tendency with additional receptor areas. (4) The correlation between pA2 and pD2' of the whole series of compounds in the histaminergic system is artificial. The method only allows determination of both values if their ratio lies between certain limits. (5) The correlation between pA2 and pD2' for 16 closely related compounds in the guinea pig ileum and for nearly all compounds in the rat intestine has to be explained by an influence of the structural differences on drug transference and/or the less specific binding forces. (6) The metactoid receptors in the two systems are different structures. (7) Possible molecular modifications to maximize the separation of antihistaminic form cholinergic affinity are suggested.

目的探讨PCNP和β-catenin在涎腺腺样囊性癌(SACC)组织中的表达及其与临床病理特征的关系。方法收集2013年1月至2020年12月兰州大学第一医院30例接受手术切除的SACC患者的癌组织及10例癌旁组织标本。采用免疫组织化学SP法检测PCNP、β-catenin在SACC及癌旁组织中的表达情况,分析PCNP、β-catenin的表达与SACC临床病理特征的关系以及两者表达的相关性。结果 PCNP在SACC组织细胞核中大量表达,β-catenin在SACC肿瘤细胞中主要表达于细胞质及部分胞核。PCNP、β-catenin在SACC组织中的阳性表达率分别为83.3%(25/30)、66.7%(20/30),均显著高于癌旁组织(0/10),差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。SACC组织中PCNP、β-catenin的表达与神经侵袭有关(P<0.05);SACC组织中PCNP与β-catenin的表达呈显著正相关(r=0.713,P<0.001)。结论 PCNP和β-catenin在SACC组织中的阳性表达率升高,推测其可能与SACC的发生发展相关。     

Cardiovascular changes in response to selective monoamine oxidase inhibition in the rat

Chronic (21 days) treatment with the selective monoamine oxidase (MAO)-A inhibitor clorgyline, but not with the MAO-B inhibitor deprenyl in pithed rats leads to increased blood pressure responses to sympathetic stimulation and intravenous tyramine, and to elevated unstimulated heart rates. No significant changes are observed in plasma catecholamine responses to sympathetic stimulation, nor in β-adrenoreceptor numbers in heart ventricles. These findings suggest that the hypotensive effects of MAO inhibitors result from central nervous system rather than peripheral nervous system alterations.
