The present study deals with the inclusion complexation of aceclofenac with beta-cyclodextrin by grinding, microwave and spray-drying techniques. A derivative of beta-cyclodextrin, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin, was also subjected to the complexation process with aceclofenac by spray-drying technique. The samples were subjected to in-vitro dissolution studies, fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction studies. The in-vitro dissolution of aceclofenac-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin complex was faster as compared to the aceclofenac- beta-cyclodextrin complex and aceclofenac alone. Spray-dried aceclofenac-beta-cyclodextrin complex were subjected to anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity and showed significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity.

Complexing medications with cyclodextrins can enhance their solubility and stability. In this study, we investigated the host-guest complexation between Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) and Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP-D3/TPZ level of theory in two possible orientations. To determine the reactive sites in both complexes for electrophilic and nucleophilic attacks, we calculated and interpreted the binding energy, HOMO and LUMO orbitals, global chemical reactivity descriptors, natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, and Fukui indices.

The formation of inclusion complexes between Ginsenoside Rg3 and cyclodextrins represents a promising strategy to enhance the solubility of G-Rg3. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interaction between G-Rg3 and cyclodextrins have yet to be fully elucidated. In this study, we employed a combination of molecular simulation and experimental methodologies to identify the most effective solubilizing carriers among G-Rg3, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), and 2,6-dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (DM-β-CD).

Background: Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is widely recognized for its powerful antioxidant properties, sparking considerable interest in its application within skincare treatments. However, its inherently poor water solubility has posed a major challenge in formulating effective skincare products.
Methods: This research aimed to develop and evaluate a water-soluble CoQ10 serum by forming a complex with hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD).

Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) affects a significant percentage of postmenopausal women and manifests as vaginal dryness, irritation, and urinary discomfort, typically treated with vaginal estrogens. Hydrogels are preferred over creams due to their superior comfort and mucoadhesive properties. This study introduces a novel vaginal gel formulation containing hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) and estriol-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin complex (E3-HPBCD) for the treatment of GSM.

Niemann Pick Disease Type C (NP-C), a rare neurogenetic disease with no known cure, is caused by mutations in the cholesterol trafficking protein NPC1. Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC) are thought to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases; however, little is known about how these cells are altered in NP-C. In this study, we investigated how NPC1 inhibition perturbs BMEC metabolism in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived BMEC (hiBMEC).
