Bile acid and sterol solubilization in 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin.
The use of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin has made it possible to prepare stable aqueous solutions of cholesterol, 26-hydroxycholesterol, 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol, and monohydroxy bile acids such as lithocholic and 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acids ...

Hearing Loss and Otopathology Following Systemic and Intracerebroventricular Delivery of 2-Hydroxypropyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin. [PDF]
Cyclodextrins are simple yet powerful molecules widely used in medicinal formulations and industry for their ability to stabilize and solubilize guest compounds. However, recent evidence shows that 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) causes severe hearing loss in mice, selectively killing outer hair cells (OHC) within 1 week of subcutaneous drug ...

Enhancement of zona binding using 2-hydroxypropyl- beta-cyclodextrin [PDF]
Since membrane cholesterol depletion is known to play an important role in sperm capacitation, we have investigated the effect of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin, a cyclic oligosaccharide that mediates cholesterol efflux, on sperm functions. Sperm treatment with cyclodextrin did not affect the motility patterns but induced an increase in sperm ...

Inhibition of MAPK-Erk pathway in vivo attenuates aortic valve disease processes in Emilin1-deficient mouse model [PDF]
Aortic valve disease (AVD) is a common condition with a progressive natural history, and presently, there are no pharmacologic treatment strategies. Elastic fiber fragmentation (EFF) is a hallmark of AVD, and increasing evidence implicates developmental ...

Possible utility of hydroxyalkylated beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CyD) derivatives as parenteral drug carriers was investigated, using nimodipine, a dihydropyridine derivative with calcium antagonistic action, as a model drug. The aqueous solubility of nimodipine increased linearly with increase in the concentration of hydroxyalkylated beta-CyDs, showing an
