ジャーナル フリーWe have developed “protein- and cell-based screen methods” for the isolation of new natural products. By using VDR (vitamin D receptor) immobilized magnetic beads, two new natural products were isolated rapidly. To find inhibitors of Hes1 protein, which is one of the important transcriptional factors in neural stem cells, a Hes1 dimer plate assay was developed, and then first Hes1 dimer inhibitors were found from our natural products library. As a “cell-based screen method,” a reporter gene assay for screening Hh (hedgehog) signaling inhibitors was constructed. New Hh signaling inhibitors were isolated from our natural extracts library. We evaluated their Hh inhibitory activity in Hh related protein synthesis and cytotoxicity against cancers, in which Hh signaling is aberrantly activated. In addition to the naturally made compounds library (extracts library), “small molecules based on natural products” were synthesized. The total synthesis of Melleumin A, B, which were isolated by our group, was achieved. From their synthetic derivatives, inhibitors of the Wnt signal, which has been reported to cause colon cancers, were discovered. Moreover, flavanone and chromone were selected as natural product scaffolds. Many flavonoids and chromones with diverse heterocyclic units were constructed using our efficient synthetic method.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (1916K)

ジャーナル フリーSolid dispersion particles of carvedilol (CAR) were prepared with porous silica (Sylysia 350) by the solvent evaporation method in a vacuum evaporator to ensure an effective pore-filling procedure. Two sets were prepared, each with various amounts of CAR in solid dispersions, and with the pore-filling process differing each time. Set A was prepared by a one-step filling method and set B by a multiple-step pore-filling method of CAR into porous silica. The solid dispersions were then characterized using thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, and nitrogen adsorption experiments. The results showed that the drug release can be significantly improved compared with the dissolution of the drug in its pure crystalline or amorphous state. Drug release from solid dispersion was faster when the drug content in the solid dispersion was low, which enabled the drug to be finely dispersed along the hydrophilic carrier's surface. The results also showed that a multiple-step pore-filling procedure is more effective for drug loading as indicated by the absence of a crystalline drug state, greatly reduced porosity, and improved wettability and physical stability of the amorphous CAR.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (2519K) -

ジャーナル フリーThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of three swallowing aids on the adsorbent properties and palatability of a mixture of the oral charcoal adsorbent, Kremezin®. None of the swallowing aids had any effect on the adsorption of indole by Kremezin®, either in vitro and in vivo. In gustatory sensation tests of the palatability of the swallowing aids with Kremezin®, 14 items were evaluated according to the semantic differential (SD) method. Factor analysis of the results identified two main factors ‘Remaining after removing from mouth’ and ‘Sense of holding in mouth’ as predominantly determining the palatability. The swallowing aid with the highest viscosity allowed the best dispersion of Kremezin®, and also improved the palatability of Kremezin® the most.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (1209K) -

ジャーナル フリーThe objective of present work was to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of poorly aqueous soluble drug Irbesartan (IBS). The solid dispersions were prepared by spray drying method using low viscosity grade HPMC E5LV. Prepared solid dispersions were characterized by dissolution study, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction studies (XRD). Results of the SEM, DSC and XRD study showed the conversion of crystalline form of IBS to amorphous form. The dissolution rate was remarkably increased in case of solid dispersion compared to pure IBS. Solubility and stability of solid dispersion was increased due to surfactant and wetting property, slowing devitrification and having anti-plasticization effect of HPMC E5LV. In vivo studies were performed in healthy rabbits (New Zealand grey) and compared with plain IBS. Solid dispersions showed increase in relative bioavailability than the plain IBS suspension. In conclusion, the prepared solid dispersions showed remarkable increase in solubility, dissolution rate and hence bioavailabilty of poorly water soluble drug Irbesartan.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (1368K) -

ジャーナル フリーTheophylline has an anhydrous form and a monohydrated form, and the dissolution rate of the anhydrous form is higher than that of the monohydrated form. Terahertz (THz) spectra of theophylline tablet containing the theophylline anhydrous form, monohydrated form, microcrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate exhibited a specific absorption peak at 0.96 THz, where the theophylline anhydrous form demonstrated an absorption peak. Additionally, the intensity of the peak at 0.96 THz gradually decreased as the proportion of the anhydrous form decreased. The multivariate data analysis was performed to correlate the THz spectra of theophylline tablets with the ratio of the theophylline anhydrous form. The calibration model used to predict the mixing ratio of the theophylline anhydrous form from the THz spectra achieved root-mean-squared errors of cross-validation (RMSECV) of 2.89%, a slope of 0.9934 and an R2 of 0.9927. In addition, there were intentions to develop a prediction model for the dissolution rate of theophylline from the drug product. The dissolution rate of theophylline tablet was gradually delayed as the proportion of the anhydrous form was decreased. The multivariate data analysis was performed to correlate the THz spectra of theophylline tablets with the dissolution rate. The calibration model used to predict the percentage of theophylline dissolved in 45 min from the THz spectra achieved an RMSECV of 3.29%, a slope of 0.9260 and an R2 of 0.9423. Furthermore, there were no significant differences between the predicted and measured percentages of theophylline dissolved in 45 min in the theophylline tablets that were stored at 84% relative humidity (RH) and 25 °C for 12 h or 3 d.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (685K) -

ジャーナル フリーIn this study, we demonstrated the potential use of polypseudorotaxanes (PPRXs) of polyethylene glycol (PEG, molecular weight: 2000)-grafted polyamidoamine dendrimer (PEG-dendrimer) with cyclodextrins (CyDs) as novel sustained release systems for plasmid DNA (pDNA). PEG-dendrimer/pDNA complex formed PPRXs with α-CyD and γ-CyD solutions, but not with β-CyD solution. In the PEG-dendrimer/CyDs PPRXs systems, 17.9 mol of α-CyD and 8.8 mol of γ-CyD were involved in the PPRXs formation with one PEG chain by α-CyD and γ-CyD, respectively. In addition, the CyDs PPRX formation provided the sustained release of pDNA from PEG-dendrimer complex with pDNA at least 72 h in vitro. In addition, the release of pDNA from CyDs PPRX retarded as the dissolution medium volume decreased. These results suggest that the PEG-dendrimer/CyD PPRX systems can work as a sustained DNA release system, and the PPRX formation with CyDs may be useful as a sustained drug delivery technique for other pegylated polymers.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (1066K) -

ジャーナル フリーThe ether extract of the New Zealand liverwort Marsupidium epiphytum gave four new prenyl bibenzyl derivatives, along with a known prenyl bibenzyl derivative which has been isolated from the Ecuadorian liverwort Lethocolea glossophylla; their structures were determined by 2D-NMR spectrum. The chemical constituents of Marsupidium epiphytum are highly characteristic since they elaborate dihydrooxepin type compounds and prenyl type bibenzyls. These structures are closely related to those found in Radula spp. (Radulaceae), although bibenzyls with two prenyl groups have not been isolated from the Radula spp. Although Marsupidium spp. are different from Radula spp. morphologically, the constituents are closely related. This is the first example of isolation of prenyl bibenzyl derivatives from M. epiphytum, a species which has not previously been investigated phytochemically.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (510K) -

ジャーナル フリーCaffeoylquinic acid (CQA) is one of the phenylpropanoids which have various bioactivities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, antihistamic, and other biological effects. We previously reported that 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid inhibited amyloid β1—42-induced cellular toxicity on human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells and increased the mRNA expression level of glycolytic enzymes and the intracellular ATP level. To investigate structure–activity relationship on the accelerating activity on ATP production, we synthesized 1,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 4,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 3,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid, and other derivatives. Additionally, we evaluated intracellular ATP level in SH-SY5Y treated with each CQA derivative. As a result, 3,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid showed the highest accelerating activity on ATP production among tested compounds. It was suggested that caffeoyl groups bound to quinic acid are important for activity and the more caffeoyl groups are bound to quinic acid, the higher accelerating activity on ATP production exhibits.抄録全体を表示PDF形式でダウンロード (826K) -
