Dehydroacetic acid (1) was found to induce photoisomerization, converting aldrin (3) and dieldrin (4) into photoaldrin (5) and photodieldrin (6), respectively, not only when irradiated with artificial light at wavelengths longer than 290 nm in air but also when exposed to sunlight in air. By contrast, sodium dehydroacetate (2) induced both photoisomerization, primarily converting 3 to 5 and photoepoxidation, partially forming 6. Thus, because 2 is usually used as a water-soluble antiseptic, photo-erethism might occur due to the isomerization and epoxidation properties of this compound. The difference between the photoreactivity of 1 and that of 2 might be attributed to the spin density of the odd electron on the carbon atom in the respective radicals that were formed after photo-excited 1 and 2 caused H-abstraction.

The use of toxic gas surrogates in organic reactions instead of the gas itself contributes to enhancing the safety, practicality, and efficiency of the reactions involved. Our efforts toward the creation of toxic gas surrogates and the development of a series of catalytic reactions using these surrogates are described. Improvements in substrate scope during the hydroesterification of alkenes using formates facilitated by the Ru–imidazole catalyst system provided the opportunity to discover that phenyl formate is a useful carbon monoxide (CO) surrogate for the generation of CO and phenol under weakly basic conditions. This discovery triggered the development of highly reactive but stable CO surrogates and a variety of Pd-catalyzed carbonylative transformations. N-Formylsaccharin facilitated the use of additional nucleophiles in carbonylation reactions that provided access to a variety of carbonyl compounds. Detailed experimental and theoretical mechanistic studies into the generation of CO from phenyl formate suggest that CO generation proceeds via a concerted E2 α-elimination. Furthermore, a known surrogate of sulfur dioxide was applied for the first time to the selective syntheses of cyclic sulfonamides and sulfinamides, confirming that the surrogate operates as an “S=O” source. Notably, the reactions described herein are scalable and can be performed without the use of external toxic gases and specialized reaction vessels; they are easy and simple to perform and demonstrate enormous potential for industrial application.

Tetrahydrobiphenylene consists of cyclobutene fused with benzene and cyclohexene rings. In this paper, a direct method for synthesizing tetrahydrobiphenylenes based on a palladium (Pd)(0)-catalyzed C(sp2)–H functionalization was investigated. The developed method was applied to the synthesis of several tetrahydrobiphenylenes having an oxygen functionality at the ring juncture. The derivatization of a tetrahydrobiphenylene is also reported.

This note describes the construction of tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters via palladium-catalyzed allylation of sp3 C–H bonds of 2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine derivatives. The presence of 2-pyridyl group of the imines derived from 1-substituted-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine was key to promoting the reaction efficiently, allowing an access to a variety of 1-allylated 2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine derivatives with tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters.

Cochineal extract prepared from the scale insect Dactylopus coccus (American cochineal) has been used as a natural red dye for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. The major pigment in cochineal extract is carminic acid (CA), an anthraquinone glucoside, and several minor pigments have been previously reported. Our investigation aimed at establishing the safety of cochineal dye products using UPLC-PDA-ESI-TOF/MS found an unknown minor pigment, spiroketalcarminic acid (1), in three commercial cochineal extract samples; cochineal extract used in food additives, carmine that is an aluminum salt of cochineal extract used as natural dye, and a research reagent of CA. The purification of 1 from cochineal extract involved sequential chromatographic techniques, including preparative reversed-phase HPLC. 2D NMR and mass analyses established the structure of 1 to be a novel anthraquinone with an unusual 6,5-spiroketal system instead of the C-glucosyl moiety of CA. The absolute stereochemistry of the spiroketal moiety in 1 was determined by NOESY correlations and optical rotation. No data corresponding to 1 had previously been reported for extracts of dried cochineal insects and traditional art products dyed with cochineal extract, indicating that 1 is likely produced during the preparation of commercial cochineal extract.

l-Menthol increases drug partitioning on the surface of skin, diffusion of drugs in the skin, and lipid fluidity in the stratum corneum and alters the rigidly arranged lipid structure of intercellular lipids. However, l-menthol is a solid at room temperature, and it is difficult to determine the effects of l-menthol alone. In this study, we vaporized l-menthol in order to avoid the effects of solvents. The vaporized l-menthol was applied to the stratum corneum or lipid models comprising composed of ceramides (CER) [EOS], the longest lipid acyl chain of the ceramides in the stratum corneum lipids that is associated with the barrier function of the skin; CER [NS], the shorter lipid acyl chain of the ceramides, and the most components in the stratum corneum of the intercellular lipids that is associated with water retention in the intercellular lipid structure of the stratum corneum; cholesterol; and palmitic acid. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses revealed that the lipid models were composed of hexagonal packing and orthorhombic packing structures of different lamellar periods. Taken together, our results revealed that l-menthol strongly affected the lipid model composed of CER [EOS]. Therefore, l-menthol facilitated the permeation of drugs through the skin by liquid crystallization of the longer lamellar structure. Importantly, these simple lipid models are useful for investigating microstructure of the intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate suppression of the bitterness intensity of bitter basic drugs by chlorogenic acid (CGA) using the artificial taste sensor and human gustatory sensation testing and to investigate the mechanism underlying bitterness suppression using 1H-NMR. Diphenhydramine hydrocholoride (DPH) was the bitter basic drug used in the study. Quinic acid (QNA) and caffeic acid (CFA) together form CGA. Although all three acids suppressed the bitterness intensity of DPH in a dose-dependent manner as determined by the taste sensor and in gustatory sensation tests, CFA was less effective than either CGA or QNA. Data from 1H-NMR spectroscopic analysis of mixtures of the three acids with DPH suggest that the carboxyl group, which is present in both QNA and CGA but not CFA, interact with the amine group of DPH. This study showed that the bitterness intensity of DPH was suppressed by QNA and CGA through a direct electrostatic interaction with DPH as confirmed in 1H-NMR spectroscopic analysis. CGA and QNA may therefore be useful bitterness-masking agents for the basic drug DPH.

The reaction of tryptamine with δ-valerolactone in tetralin gave δ-hydroxyamide (3) as the main product and the lactam (4) as the minor product. However, the reaction of 5, 6-dihydro-2-pyrone with tryptamine or aniline afforded a mixture of the corresponding αβ- and βγ-unsaturated lactams, whereas, 2-pyrone did not react with either tryptamine or aniline to give the corresponding pyridone. Cyclization of 3 or 4 by Bischler-Napieralski reaction and followed NaBH<SUB>4</SUB> reduction provided a convement synthesis of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 12b-octahydroindolo [2, 3-α] quinolizine (23).

Oryza sativa L. (rice) is an important staple crop across the world. In the previous study, we identified 36 specialized (secondary) metabolites including 28 flavonoids. In the present study, a metabolome analysis using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was conducted on the leaf, bran, and brown and polished rice grains to better understand the distribution of these metabolites. Principal component analysis using the metabolome data clearly characterized the accumulation patterns of the metabolites. Flavonoids, e.g., tricin, tricin 7-O-rutinoside, and tricin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, were mainly present in the leaf and bran but not in the polished grain. In addition, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activity of the metabolites were assayed in vitro. Tricin 4′-O-(erythro-β-guaiacylglyceryl)ether and isoscoparin 2″-O-(6‴-(E)-feruloyl)-glucopyranoside showed the strongest activity for inhibiting nitric oxide (NO) production and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging, respectively.

Formaldehyde is a well-known air impurity. The possibility was investigated in this study that pharmaceutical excipients commonly used in oral solid dosage forms might also be sources of formaldehyde. The results showed that formaldehyde is generated by the excipients lactose, D-mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, low-substituted hydroxypropylcellulose, magnesium stearate and light anhydrous silicic acid. Since the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products can be significantly affected by the presence of formaldehyde, various amines were then investigated for their ability to decrease levels of formaldehyde using an aqueous solution system. Of the four amines investigated, only meglumine proved capable of reducing formaldehyde levels. The reaction product between formaldehyde and meglumine was obtained by fractionation using the preparative HPLC system and the structure was clarified by 1H-, 13C-NMR, various types of two-dimensional NMR and mass spectroscopy. The reaction product was determined to be a compound with a 1,3-oxazinane skeleton and containing one more carbon than meglumine. It was presumed that formaldehyde reacted with the secondary amino group in meglumine to form the reaction product via an iminium salt intermediate by cyclization. As meglumine is permitted to be used as a pharmaceutical excipient in both oral and parenteral dosage forms by regulations worldwide, the addition of meglumine to pharmaceutical products can be expected to contribute to the stabilization of many drug substances.

A new solvent system benzene-n-hexane-diethylamine (25 : 10 : 1), was found to show a good separation of cannabidiol, tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabinol in hemp resin by thin-layer chromatography, in which Rf-values of three constituents were 0.45, 0.35 and 0.25, respectively. Furthermore, the same solvent system was successfully applied to silica gel column chromatography for isolation of three constituents of hemp resin. Using cocaine hydrochloride as an internal standard of gas chromatography, relative retention times of cannabidiol, tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabinol were calculated to be 1.76, 2.34 and 2.88, respectively. Six kinds of hemps grown in India, U.S.A. and Japan, were quantitatively analyzed using gas chromatography, and against a common opinion, Japanese hemps were found to contain considerable amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol, a physiologically active constituent.

Investigations were carried out to determine whether or not a decreasing action of hepatic glycogen content in rats by ginseng extract is due to its main constituent, saponin. The experimental results suggested that ginseng saponin decreases the glycogen stores, but the degree of its effect is regulated by the nutritional status of rats.

Triplex DNA formation has generated much interest as a genomic targeting tool that directly targets duplex DNA. However, fundamental limitations in the base pairs of target duplex DNA sequences that can form stable triplex DNA have limited the application. Recently, we have reported on the recognition of CG and 5mCG base pairs by artificial nucleic acid derivatives with a 2′-deoxynebularine skeleton. Therefore, we attempted to explore the basic skeleton that is important for the development of new artificial nucleic acids allowing for the recognition of TA base pairs. In this study, we focused on a benzimidazole skeleton and introduced a hydroxyl group to enable one-point hydrogen bonding. We have synthesized artificial nucleoside analogues with hydroxyl group on the benzimidazole and incorporated their amidite derivatives into triplex forming oligonucleotides (TFOs). The gel shift assay was performed to evaluate the triplex DNA formation ability of synthesized TFOs, and TFOs containing hydroxybenzimidazole were successfully recognized TA base pairs for all four different sequences. Moreover, compared to the results for the TFOs containing benzimidazole, which suggested hydrogen bonding formation at the hydroxyl group. Therefore, hydroxybenzimidazole would be an important artificial nucleic acid skeleton for TA base pair recognition.

Pirarubicin (THP) shows more rapid intracellular uptake, more effective antitumor activity, and less cardiac toxicity, compared to doxorubicin. However, THP is distributed to both tumor and normal tissues indiscriminately. This study aimed to develop a nanosuspension to deliver THP to tumor tissues more efficiently. Fatty-acid-modified THPs (FA-THPs; octanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, palmitic acid-THPs) were synthesized to increase the hydrophobicity of THP. Nanosuspensions of these FA-THPs were then prepared using an antisolvent precipitation technique. Among the FA-THPs, the most efficiently drug-loaded nanosuspension was obtained from palmitic acid-THP (pal-THP) using an aqueous antisolvent containing bovine serum albumin as a stabilizer. The pal-THP nanoparticles in the nanosuspension were confirmed to be of optimal size (100–125 nm) for delivery to tumor tissues using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. The pal-THP nanosuspension showed cytotoxicity in colon 26 cells. The nanosuspension was shown to disintegrate in the presence of surfactants such as lecithin, liberating pal-THP, which was converted to free THP in acidic media. It is therefore proposed that pal-THP nanoparticles that reach tumor cells after intravenous administration would exert antitumor effect by liberating pal-THP (i.e., disintegration of nanoparticles by the interaction with cell membrane), followed by the release of free THP in the acidic milieu of tumor cells. These findings indicate that FA-THP nanosuspensions, particularly pal-THP nanosuspension, hold promise as a candidate for cancer treatment. However, further in vivo studies are necessary.

Palmitoyl-glycine-histidine (Pal-GH) is a new low molecular weight gelling agent. It exhibits thixotropic behavior, low viscosity, and high dissolving properties for a wide range of hydrophilic to lipophilic drugs. Orally administered ivermectin (IVM) is used to treat scabies. However, this treatment is associated with well-known side effects, thus a study is awaited to search for alternative routes of administration. Although a topical formulation of IVM could be a candidate, it requires whole body application except the head and face for several hours on a daily basis. Therefore, in this study, we prepared a gel spray formulation containing IVM as an approach for application to large skin areas with a single spray application without further contact with the applied formulation. Pal-GH gel spray formulations were prepared from its aqueous solution by a heating and cooling method. Rheological behavior and physical appearance (spraying, spreading ability, volume of spraying, and homogeneity) of the prepared formulations were evaluated. Pal-GH gel with propylene glycol demonstrated impressive rheological properties (typical thixotropic behavior) with high hysteresis area among all the tested Pal-GH gels and spreading ability. The obtained IVM concentration in the skin after topical application of 0.1% IVM-containing Pal-GH formulation onto hairless rats was much higher than the reported therapeutic concentration obtained from oral administration in humans. These results suggested that topical application of IVM using a Pal-GH gel spray formulation could be an alternative to the conventional oral forms for the scabies treatment.

Virtual screening with high-performance computers is a powerful and cost-effective technique in drug discovery. A chemical database is searched to find candidate compounds firmly bound to a target protein, judging from the binding poses and/or binding scores. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) infectious disease has spread worldwide for the last three years, causing severe slumps in economic and social activities. SARS-Cov-2 has two viral proteases: 3-chymotrypsin-like (3CL) and papain-like (PL) protease. While approved drugs have already been released for the 3CL protease, no approved agent is available for PL protease. In this work, we carried out in silico screening for the PL protease inhibitors, combining docking simulation and molecular mechanics calculation. Docking simulations were applied to 8,820 molecules in a chemical database of approved and investigational compounds. Based on the binding poses generated by the docking simulations, molecular mechanics calculations were performed to optimize the binding structures and to obtain the binding scores. Based on the binding scores, 57 compounds were selected for in vitro assay of the inhibitory activity. Five inhibitory compounds were identified from the in vitro measurement. The predicted binding structures of the identified five compounds were examined, and the significant interaction between the individual compound and the protease catalytic site was clarified. This work demonstrates that computational virtual screening by combining docking simulation with molecular mechanics calculation is effective for searching candidate compounds in drug discovery.

Exosomes are a type of extracellular vesicles that contain diverse molecules and are present in our body fluids. They play a crucial role in transporting materials and transmitting signals between cells. Currently, there have been numerous reports on the use of exosomes in drug delivery systems (DDS). However, most existing methods for utilizing exosomes in DDS require the isolation and purification of exosomes, which raises concerns about yield and potential damage to the exosomes. Recently, we have developed a novel DDS called “ExomiR-Tracker” that harnesses exosomes without the need for isolation and purification. This system aims to deliver nucleic acid drugs effectively. ExomiR-Tracker consists of an anti-exosome antibody equipped with nona-D-arginines (9 mer) and nucleic acid drugs which have complementary sequence of target microRNA (anti-miR). In this study, we modified ExomiR-Tracker by incorporating branched nona-D-arginines (9 + 9 mer) molecules (referred to as Branch ExomiR-Tracker) and evaluated its efficacy in lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549 cells). The improved complex formation ability and enhanced cellular uptake of anti-miR, demonstrated by our findings, highlight the advantages of incorporating branched oligoarginine peptides into the ExomiR-Tracker platform. These results represent significant progress in revealing the effectiveness of Branch ExomiR-Tracker against adhesive cancer cells, which has not been shown to be effective with the conventional Linear ExomiR-Tracker.

Dapagliflozin (DAPA), sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, is used to treat Type 2 diabetes. In this study, a highly sensitive and selective analytical method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) was established and validated for the determination of DAPA in rat plasma. The separation of DAPA and internal standard (DAPA-d5) were performed on a reversed-phase ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column (100×3.0 mm, 1.7 µm). The mobile phase is composed of 0.1% formic acid in water (solvent A) and methanol (solvent B) in gradient elution. Under the negative ion mode, full MS/dd-MS2 was adopted to collect data via Q-Orbitrap. DAPA was effectively separated from matrix backgrounds within 10 min, and DAPA in plasma showed a good linear relationship in the range of 10-10000 µg/L. The determination coefficient (R2) was 0.9987, and the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 10 µg/L. The precision and accuracy were all less than 10%, and the extraction recovery of DAPA was 86.16%-96.06% from plasma. This study offered an efficient separation and quantification method for DAPA. The improved and validated method succeeded in evaluating the pharmacokinetics of DAPA in rat plasma samples after a single oral administration of 1 mg/kg.

Lactose is an excipient used extensively for bulking, diluting, and molding active pharmaceutical ingredients in tablet manufacturing. Particularly, granulated lactose (GL) intended for direct powder compression has distinct properties due to differences in manufacturing methods. It contributes to handling blended powders for tableting and tablet quality. In this study, we aimed to compare the functions of different forms of GL added as excipients during direct powder compression on the tablet properties and the effect of magnesium stearate (Mg-S) used as a lubricant on each type of GL. Different GL types obtained using different manufacturing methods (agitated granulation, GL-AG; spray-dried granulation, GL-SD; fluidized bed granulation, GL-FB) were blended with maize starch, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, and paracetamol in a V-type blender for 10 min. Mg-S was added at varying amounts (0.1, 1.0, and 2.0%) and blending times (5, 10, and 30 min) for the nine types of blended powders for tableting formulation. The powders were tableted, and the tablets were evaluated for weight and drug loading variations, tensile strength, friability, and disintegration time. When tablets with the same blending conditions were compared, the tensile strength and disintegration time were in the order of GL-FB > GL-SD > GL-AG. For each GL, we analyzed the effects of changes in the added amount of Mg-S and blending time using contour plots, evaluated the effects of blending conditions on tablet properties, and determined the target tablet properties. We investigated the optimization of the lubricant blending conditions to obtain suitable tablets.
