Abstract
S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)- L-cysteine sulfoxide (DCVCS), a Michael acceptor produced by an FMO3-mediated oxidation of the trichloroethylene metabolite S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)- L-cysteine (DCVC), is a more potent nephrotoxicant than DCVC. Because DCVCS incubations with N-acetyl- L-cysteine at pH 7.4, 37 degrees C resulted in the formation of three diastereomeric monoadducts and one diadduct, globin monoadducts and cross-links formed after in vitro incubations of rat erythrocytes with DCVCS (0.9-450 microM) for 2 h and those present at 30 min after in vivo treatment of rats with DCVCS (23 and 230 micromol/kg) were characterized. ESI/MS of intact globin chains revealed adduction of 1 DCVCS moiety on the beta2 chain at the three lowest DCVCS concentrations and on the beta1 chain after the in vivo treatment with 230 micromol/kg DCVCS. Interestingly, intact globin dimers and trimers were detectable by ESI/MS with all DCVCS concentrations in vitro (also by SDS-PAGE) and in vivo. LC/MS and MALDI/FTICR of trypsin digested peptides from globin samples obtained after in vitro (450 microM DCVCS) or in vivo exposure to DCVCS (230 micromol/kg) suggested the formation of DCVCS monoadducts not only with Cys93 and Cys125 of the beta chains but also with Cys13 of the alpha chains, whereas no monoadducted peptides were detected at lower DCVCS concentrations in vitro or in vivo. However, LC/MS and MALDI-TOF/TOF suggested the presence of several DCVCS-derived peptide cross-links both in vivo and in vitro at all DCVCS exposure levels. Collectively, the results indicate at least 4 out of the 5 cysteine moieties of the rat hemoglobin heterodimer may be alkylated by DCVCS, in reactions that could also lead to the formation of multiple cross-links. DCVCS- and N-acetyl-DCVCS (NA-DCVCS)-derived globin cross-links containing GSH and Cys were also detected by mass spectrometry, providing strong evidence for the reactivity and/or cross-linking ability of DCVCS, NA-DCVCS, and their GSH or Cys conjugates in both the in vitro and the in vivo. Thus, hemoglobin adducts and cross-links may be useful biomarkers to investigate the possible presence of DCVCS in circulation after DCVC or trichloroethylene exposure.

Abstract
Transmucosal drug administration across nasal, buccal, and ocular mucosae is noninvasive, eliminates hepatic first-pass metabolism and harsh environmental conditions, allows rapid onset, and further, mucosal surfaces are readily accessible. Generally, however, hydrophilic drugs, such as peptides and proteins, are poorly permeable across the epithelium, which results in insufficient bioavailability. Therefore, reversible modifications of epithelial barrier structure by permeation enhancers are required. Low molecular weight enhancers generally have physicochemical characteristics favoring their own absorption, whereas polymeric enhancers are not absorbed, and this minimizes the risk of systemic toxicity. The above considerations have warranted the present survey of the studies on polymeric transmucosal penetration-enhancers that have appeared in the literature during the last decade. Studies on intestinal permeation enhancers are also reviewed as they give information on the mechanism of action and safety of polymers. The synthesis and characterization of polymers, their effectiveness in enhancing the absorption of different drugs across different epithelium types, their mechanism of action and structure-efficacy relationship, and the relevant safety issues are reviewed. The active polymers are classified into: polycations (chitosan and its quaternary ammonium derivatives, poly-L-arginine (poly-L-Arg), aminated gelatin), polyanions (N-carboxymethyl chitosan, poly(acrylic acid)), and thiolated polymers (carboxymethyl cellulose-cysteine, polycarbophil (PCP)-cysteine, chitosan-thiobutylamidine, chitosan-thioglycolic acid, chitosan-glutathione conjugates).

Abstract
In the present study, several nasal absorption enhancers, used in metoclopramide hydrochloride (MCP HCl) nasal solutions, have been screened for their possible damaging effect in the in vitro human erythrocytes lysis experiment. Moreover, the in vivo leaching of biological markers from the rat nasal epithelium was used as a quantitative assessment for possible nasal mucosal irritation whereby the extent of release of total protein and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the nasal lavage fluid was determined. Results showed that insignificant hemolysis from normal saline (P<0.05) occurred with the enhancer protamine sulphate while poly-l-arginine and sodium cholate demonstrated very low (<15%) hemolysis and caused insignificant protein and LDH release from the rat nasal mucosa. Conversely, sodium deoxycholate and chitosan polymers (either of low or high molecular weight) showed high (>60%) hemolysis in vitro and the release of the biological markers in vivo was significantly higher (P<0.05) than the control solution (no enhancer). A significant correlation (P<0.05) existed between the enhancement effect of MCP HCl nasal absorption and the amounts of protein (r=0.85) and LDH (r=0.88). Furthermore, the pharmacokinetics of MCP HCl was determined after intravenous (IV), per-oral and intranasal administration of 10mg drug dose in rabbits. The application of a nasal spray (NS) solution containing 0.5% sodium cholate resulted in a significant improvement (P<0.05) in both the rate and extent of absorption of MCP HCl where the T(max) achieved was 23.3min as compared to 50min in case of the oral solution while the area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC(0-infinity)) were 506.1, 434.9 and 278.7microg/mlmin for IV, NS and oral solutions, respectively. These values corresponded to absolute bioavailabilities of 87.21 and 55.61% for the NS and oral solutions, respectively. It could thus be concluded that NS of MCP HCl represents a viable approach to achieving rapid and high systemic drug absorption during the emergency treatment of severe emesis.

Abstract
Bioadhesive and biodegradable microspheres were obtained by chemical cross-linking with epichlorohydrin of an alkaline solution of a mixture of starch and alpha-, beta-, or gamma-cyclodextrin (CyD). Microspheres were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, swelling degree, and water retention. The percentage of the effective CyD in microspheres was estimated by measuring the amount of iodine and typical organic compounds (TOCs) retained in the hydrophobic cavity of CyD. Gabexate Mesylate (trade name Foy); GM), an antiallergic drug, was included in microspheres by soaking in an aqueous solution containing the drug, followed by solvent evaporation or lyophilization. UV, IR, and DSC data indicated that despite the fact that GM is a hydrophilic drug, its hydrophobic moiety close to the benzene ring is able to penetrate the CyD cavity and to form stable inclusion complexes. Values of the association equilibrium constant for GM binding to CyD, obtained by UV differential spectroscopy, indicated that the affinity of the drug for alpha- and gamma-CyD is higher than that for beta-CyD. In vitro, GM was gradually released during 1h. Even if the release rate of the drug is relatively fast, the microspheres might actually provide the best platform since the material adheres to the nasal mucosa which was proved by adhesion tests. The GM integrity was checked by comparing its anti-trypsin activity before and after release.

Abstract
The effect of poly-L-arginine (poly-L-Arg) on the in vivo nasal absorption of FITC-dextrans with a mean molecular weight ranging from 4.3 to 167 kDa and recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) in rats were studied. When FITC-dextrans were co-administered intranasally with 1.0 w/v% poly-L-Args of different molecular weight (MW, ca. 45.5 and 92 kDa, poly-L-Arg (50) and poly-L-Arg (100)), the bioavailability (F(infinity)) increased markedly compared with that after administration of FITC-dextran alone. However, the F(infinity) decreased exponentially with the increasing molecular weight of FITC-dextrans. There was no significant difference between the enhanced nasal absorption of FITC-dextrans achieved by the co-administration of poly-L-Arg (50) and poly-L-Arg (100). Moreover, the relationship between the F(infinity) and the molecular weight of FITC-dextrans indicated that the molecular weight of protein drugs, which exhibited efficient absorption with poly-L-Arg, was about 20 kDa, when the lower limit of bioavailability for developing a potent transnasal delivery system was assumed to be about 10%. Indeed, the nasal absorption of rhG-CSF, which has a molecular weight of 18.8 kDa, was also increased after co-administration of 1.0 w/v% poly-L-Arg (50) and the F(infinity) was about 11%. It seems likely that poly-L-Arg can be used to provide adequate nasal absorption of various protein drugs which have a molecular weight of about 20 kDa, thereby allowing the successful development of a variety of transnasal drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The effects of the concentration and molecular weight of poly-L-arginine (poly-L-Arg) on the in vivo nasal absorption of fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (MW, 4 kDa, FD-4) in rats were studied. When poly-L-Arg with a range of different molecular weights (MW, 8.9, 45.5 and 92.0 kDa) was applied intranasally at various concentrations, the bioavailability (F(0-9 h)) of FD-4 increased with the increasing concentration of poly-L-Arg. The enhanced absorption was also dependent on the molar concentration, in that the poly-L-Arg with a higher molecular weight increased F(0-9 h) at a lower molar concentration. In addition, for each applied concentration, the poly-L-Arg exhibited a molecular weight-dependence as far as the enhancement of FD-4 absorption was concerned. On the other hand, the maximum absorption rate (MAR) of FD-4, calculated by means of a deconvolution method, tended to reach a maximum plateau level at a lower applied concentration for the poly-L-Arg with the highest molecular weight, but this plateau level was almost the same for poly-L-Arg with molecular weights of 45.5 and 92.0 kDa. Moreover, the simulated absorption profiles of FD-4 indicate that the degree of enhancement (the level of MAR and the subsequent reduction in the absorption rate) was dependent on the molecular weight of poly-L-Arg, while the effect of poly-L-Arg was maintained for a longer period, depending on the applied concentration, although the MAR was relatively similar. These results indicate that the molecular weight of poly-L-Arg appears to affect both the enhancing efficiency (absorption rate) and the time-frame of this enhancing effect, whereas the concentrations of each poly-L-Arg system applied only have an effect on the time-frame. These effects may also be associated with the charge density of a poly-L-Arg molecule.

Abstract
Several cationic compounds were screened as potential nasal absorption enhancers to increase intranasal absorption of a model drug, fluorescein isothiocyanate labeled dextran (MW 4.4 kDa, FD-4), without nasal membrane damage in rats. Their effects were compared with those of classical enhancers. Various cationic compounds (poly-L-arginines with different molecular weights (MW 8.9, 45.5 and 92.0 kDa, poly-L-Arg (10), (50) and (100), respectively), L-arginine (L-Arg), L-lysine (L-Lys), and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPCL) were evaluated. Of the cationic compounds, poly-L-Arg and CPCL greatly enhanced the intranasal absorption of FD-4, as did chitosan, a cationic polysaccharide which has been reported to show a great effect on the transnasal delivery of peptide and protein drugs. The enhancing intensity by poly-L-Arg was dependent on its molecular weight. Rank order of the enhancing ratio, calculated from the AUC ratio for the enhancer treatment against the untreatment, was 0.5% poly-L-Arg (100) congruent with0.5% sodium dodecylsulfate congruent with0.5% CPCL?0.5% poly-L-Arg (50)?0.5% sodium deoxycholate congruent with0.5% sodium taurodihydrofusidate?0.5% polyoxyethylene-9-lauryl ether congruent with0.5% lysophosphatidylcholine?0.5% chitosan congruent with0.5% poly-L-Arg (10)>/=10% L-Arg congruent with10% L-Lys?0.5% sodium glycocholate congruent with0.5% sodium taurocholate congruent with0.5% EDTA. Only the poly-L-Args represented almost the same degree of hemolysis of cationic compounds compared with pH 7.0 phosphate buffered saline in the rat erythrocyte lysis experiment. The enhancing ratio by classical enhancers correlated with leaching of protein, phospholipids and LDH from isolated rabbit nasal mucosa. CPCL also fell on the regression lines between the enhancing ratio and their degree of leaching from classical enhancers. In contrast, the enhancing intensities by poly-L-Arg (10), (50) and (100) were greatly shifted from the regression line: the amount of leaching was markedly low in spite of a great enhancement of FD-4 absorption. These findings suggest that of the assessed enhancers only the poly-L-Args enhance the transnasal delivery of high molecular substances without severe damage to the nasal mucosal membrane. Poly-L-Arg is therefore a promising candidate having a good balance between enhancing activity and safety for nasal peptide and protein delivery.

Abstract
Intranasal insulin delivery has been widely investigated as an alternative to subcutaneous injection for the treatment of diabetes. The pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal insulin is similar to that obtained by intravenous injection and, in contrast to subcutaneous insulin delivery, bears close resemblance to the 'pulsatile' pattern of endogenous insulin secretion during meal-times. The literature suggests that intranasal insulin therapy has considerable potential for controlling post-prandial hyperglycaemia in the treatment of both IDDM and NIDDM. However, effective insulin absorption via the nasal route is unlikely without employing the help of absorption enhancers or promoters which are able to modulate nasal epithelial permeability to insulin and/or prolong the residence time of the drug formulation in the nasal cavity. This article discusses the structure and function of the nasal cavity, the barriers which prevent nasal insulin absorption and through the use of absorption enhancers or promoters methods by which these barriers may be overcome.

Abstract
Interactions between endogenous cholesterol and cyclodextrins have been investigated by several researchers, and they found altered skin penetration of some drugs, membrane disruption, and extraction of cholesterol from the large lipoprotein particles or animal fat. In the present study, an inclusion complex composed of cholesterol and hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) prepared by lyophilization was investigated and characterized in order to confirm these interactions. Five grams of cholesterol were dispersed in 50 ml of 73.2 mM HPbetaCD aqueous solution, mixed for 2 days, and the filtrate lyophilized. A phase solubility study was performed by mixing an excess amount of cholesterol with an aqueous solution containing increasing amounts of HPbetaCD. The amount of cholesterol in solution after mixing for 2 days at 25 degrees C was determined by HPLC. The inclusion complex was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). An Ap-type Higuchi phase solubility diagram, DSC, FTIR, and X-ray diffraction demonstrated the formation of an inclusion complex. DSC thermograms indicated that the endothermic peaks of cholesterol and physical mixture of cholesterol with HPbetaCD due to the fusion of drug crystals, were absent in DSC thermograms obtained on the freeze dried inclusion complex. FTIR spectra indicated that some of the absorption peaks in the lyophilized inclusion complex were different from that of the physical mixture of cholesterol and HPbetaCD. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the pure cholesterol and a physical mixture of cholesterol and HPbetaCD exhibited crystalline characteristics whereas the lyophilized inclusion complex and HPbetaCD displayed amorphous characteristics. The results indicated that the formation of a cholesterol/HPbetaCD inclusion complex is more water soluble than cholesterol alone.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins improve the water-solubility of drugs and can mask their haemolytic effect in parenteral use. Because the mechanism by which bile acids induce haemolysis is poorly understood, it has been investigated in the presence of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CyD). The haemolytic effect of 1.8 mM solutions of cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), deoxycholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in isotonic buffer at pH 7.4 was investigated at 37 degrees C in the presence of HP-beta-CyD at concentrations from 0.18 to 32 mM. No haemolytic effect was evident for cholic acid and UDCA. The haemolytic effect of the other bile acids was reduced by addition of HP-beta-CyD and was prevented at a molar ratio of 1:1 owing to complex formation. An HP-beta-CyD:bile acid molar ratio greater than 5:1 had a different effect on the erythrocyte membrane, irrespective of the identity of the bile acid; the effect was in accordance with the complexion affinities. In the absence of HP-beta-CyD, the haemolytic effect of CDCA and deoxycholic acid appeared related to their capacity to form a surface monolayer and to solubilize the components of the erythrocyte membrane. The haemolytic effect observed after complexation of the bile acids appeared to be solely the effect of HP-beta-CyD, which was able to form a reversible inclusion complex with lipophilic components of the erythrocyte membranes at concentrations higher than 12 mM.
