Interaction of Dihydrocitrinone with Native and Chemically Modified Cyclodextrins.

ABSTRACT: Citrinin (CIT) is a nephrotoxic mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Monascus genera. It appears as a contaminant in grains, fruits, and spices. After oral exposure to CIT, its major urinary metabolite, dihydrocitrinone (DHC) is formed, which can be detected in human urine and blood samples. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are ring-shaped molecules built up from glucose units. CDs can form host-guest type complexes with several compounds, including mycotoxins. In this study, the complex formation of DHC with native and chemically modified beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins was tested at a wide pH range, employing steady-state fluorescence spectroscopic and modeling studies. The weakly acidic environment favors the formation of DHC-CD complexes. Among the CDs tested, the quaternary-ammonium-?-cyclodextrin (QAGCD) formed the most stable complexes with DHC. However, the quaternary-ammonium-?-cyclodextrin (QABCD) induced the strongest enhancement in the fluorescence signal of DHC. Our results show that some of the chemically modified CDs are able to form stable complexes with DHC (logK = 3.2-3.4) and the complex formation can produce even a 20-fold increase in the fluorescence signal of DHC. Considering the above-listed observations, CD technology may be a promising tool to increase the sensitivity of the fluorescence detection of DHC.

Project description:A detailed comprehensive study on how the formation of soluble and insoluble carbamazepine/cyclodextrins (CBZ/CD) complexes (with consequent changes in the solid-phase composition) depends on the CD structure is not yet available. Moreover, the study of possible influence of this drug on the tendency of CDs and their complexes to self-aggregate is still lacking. Phase-solubility studies demonstrated that CDs and CBZ form a range of soluble (AL-type: αCD, βCD, and hydroxypropylated CDs) and insoluble (BS-type: γCD) complexes depending on CD used. HPβCD proved to be the best CD solubilizer for CBZ forming the most stable complex with highest apparent solubility, whereas γCD was shown to be the best native CD. For the native CDs, CBZ solubilization increases with increasing CD cavity diameter (αCD ≪ βCD < γCD). Solid phases collected from phase-solubility studies were characterized by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction to elucidate their composition and crystalline structure. They provided similar conclusions being overall supportive of phase-solubility, osmolality, and permeation studies results. Solid CBZ was the only detected component for AL-type profiles over the CD concentration range studied, whereas precipitation of poorly soluble CBZ/γCD complexes (BS-type) was observed (i.e., at and beyond plateau region). Osmometry and permeation studies were applied to evaluate the effect of CBZ on the aggregate formation and also to elucidate their influence on CD complex solubility and permeation profile. Permeation method was shown to be the most effective method to detect and evaluate aggregate formation in aqueous γCD and HPβCD solutions containing CBZ. CBZ did not affect the HPβCD tendency to self-aggregate but CBZ did modify the aggregation behavior of γCD decreasing the apparent critical aggregation concentration value from 4.2% (w/v) (in pure aqueous γCD solution) to 2.5% (w/v) (when CBZ was present).
