Chromatographic retention behavior and separation of various phenol derivatives on a Partisil 10 ODS 3 column-with mobile phase containing $\alpha$-cyclodextrin-were systematically studied. The decrease in k' values caused by the addition of cyclodextrins in the mobile phase was based on the formation of an inclusion complex, resulting in weakening of the hydrophobic interaction between solutes and the stationary phase. The content of the organic solvent in the mobile phase also influenced k' values of the solutes, and k' values increased with a decrease of the content of organic solvent in the mobile phase. A simple equation has been derived that reveals the hyperbolic dependence of the capacity factor on the total concentration of cyclodextrin. A plot of the reciprocal of the capacity factor against (CD)$_T$ gives a straight line and the dissociation constant, K$_D$, of the inclusion complex can be calculated from the slope. The capacity factor decreased with increasing temperature. The enthalpy was calculated from the slope of van't Hoff plots. Under optimum conditions, some mixtures of phenol derivatives were able to separated successfully.

Addition of cyclodextrin in the biotransformation of digitoxin into digoxin by Digitalis lanata cell suspension cultures enhanced the conversion yield. Presence of cyclodextrin also supported good stability of the intermediate product, digoxin, for long time. Among several kinds of cyclodextrins, ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin provided the best results. It was found that the optimum form of cyclodextrin utilization was the external addition of iclusion complexes between digitoxin and ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin at 1: 2 molar ratio from the beginning of biotransformation. With the optimized conditions, addition of ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin enhanced the production of digoxin up to 1.55 fold. In this case, not only digitoxin consumption was increased, but also the production of by-product was reduced.

To produce and utilize microbial cyclomaltodextrinase being industrially useful, we isolated an alkalophilic Bacillus strain from soil which was capable of degrading cyclodextrins. The newly isolated strain was aerobic, gram-positive, spore-forming, motile, rod shape(0.2~0.4$\times$1.4~4.4 $\mu\textrm{m}$), and 35.8 mol% of DNA base composition. Based on its morphological, phisiological, and biochemical properties, it was identified as alkalophilic Bacillus sp. KJ-133 and cultivated well in the ranges of $30~40^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0~9.0 . The cyclomaltodextrinase of the strain showed maximal production after 48h of cultivation at $37^{\circ}C$, and the activity was inhibited by Ag2+, Hg2+, Cu2+, and p-chloromercuribenzoate.

Kinetic studies of the deacylation reactions of p-and m-nitrophenyl esters of (R or S)-${\alpha}$ -methoxyphenylacetic acid were performed in ${\beta}$ -CD, mono-6-deoxy-6-[N-(2-aminoethyl)]amino-${\beta}$-CD (${\beta}$-CDen) and mono-6-deoxy-6-[N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl] amino-${\beta}$-CD (${\beta}$-CDdien) media. The binding constants (K) of the substrates to the hosts and the rate constants ($k_{\varphi}^{CD}$) for the complexed substrates were determined. $k_{\varphi}^{CD}$ values are highly dependent on the hosts and the substrates, whereas differences in K values among them are modest. The p-nitrophenyl esters show larger acceleration by -${\beta}$-CDen and -${\beta}$-CDdien than the corresponding m-isomers, while the m-isomers are more reactive than the p-isomers in -${\beta}$-CD media. This is taken as an indication that the amino groups attached to the primary side of -${\beta}$-CD participate in the deacylation reaction.

일반적으로 cyclodextrin (CD)은 liposome의 구조를 불안정하게 만드는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 양친매성 고분자전해질을 리포좀에 도입하여 CD에 대한 리포좀의 안정도를 증진시키는 연구를 수행하였다. Transmission electron microscopy와 photocorrelation spectroscopy 결과들로부터 ${\beta}-CD$ (${\beta}CD$)와 hydroxypropyl-${\beta}CD$ ($HP{\beta}CD$)를 함유하는 리포좀에 고분자가 도입되었을 때 CD를 함유하는 phosphatidylcholine (PC)-cholesterol (Chol) 리포좀보다 우수한 구조적 안정성을 나타내었다. 또한, rhaponticin (Rh)을 $HP{\beta}CD$에 포접시키고 이를 함유하는 PC-Chol 리포좀과 고분자가 도입된 리포좀의 안정도를 비교해 보았을 경우도 마찬가지로 고분자가 도입된 리포좀이 월등히 향상된 구조적인 안정성을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 더불어 guinea pig의 피부조직을 사용하고 franz-cell을 통한 in vitro 피부흡수실험을 수행한 결과, $HP{\beta}CD$에 의해 가용화된 Rh의 피부흡수가 고분자가 도입된 리포좀에 의해 증진됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 상기 결과들은 양친매성 고분자 전해질의 도입에 따라 CD에 의해 가용화된 특정한 활성성분을 함유하는 리포좀의 구조적인 안정성을 효과적으로 증진시킬 수 있음을 확인시켜 주었으며, 이렇게 향상된 리포좀의 구조적인 안정성을 통해 약물전달시스템 측면에서 많은 응용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

To inhibit the enzymatic degradation of leucine enkephalin (Leu-Enk) and its synthetic analog. $[D-ala^2]$-leucine enkephalinamide (YAGFL), in the nasal, rectal and vaginal mucosal and serosal extracts of rabbits, effects of enzyme inhibitors such as amastatin (AM), puromycin (PM), thiorphan (TP), thimerosal (TM), EDTA, N-carboxymethyl-Phe-Leu (CPL), phenylethyl alcohol (PEA), phenylmercuric acetate (PMA), benzalkonium chloride (BC) and modified cyclodextrins, alone or in combination, were observed by assaying the pentapeptides staying intact during incubation. Mucosa extracts were prepared by exposing freshly-excised mucosal specimens mounted on Valia-Chien cells to isotonic phosphate buffer while stirring. The degradation of Leu-Enk and YAGFL followed the apparent first-order kinetics. The half-lives (mean) in the nasal, rectal and vaginal mucosal extracts were found to be 1.07, 0.33 and 1.14 hr for Leu-Enk, and 16.9, 6.2 and 6.8 hr for YAGFL, respectively. AM or PM, which is an aminopeptidase inhibitor, did not show a sufficient inhibition of Leu-Enk $(50\;{\mu}g/ml)$ degradation in all kinds of extracts. $Dimethyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin\;(DM-{\beta}-CyD)$ decreased the degradation rate constants of Leu-Enk about 2 or 3 times, comparing with no additive. However, the use of mixed inhibitors of AM $(50\;{\mu}M)$/TM (0.25 mM)/EDTA (5 mM) resulted in a full stabilization of Leu-Enk by decreasing the degradation rate constants 67.3, 161.3 and 113.8 times far the nasal, rectal and vaginal mucosal extracts, respectively, comparing with no inhibitor. With mixed inhibitors, Leu-Enk remained intact more than 90% after 6 hr-incubation. In the stabilization of YAGFL, hM, TP or CPL alone showed little efffct, and some additives demonstrated a considerable inhibition of YAGFL degradation in the rank order of TM > BC > EDTA. However, the addition of mixed inhibitors such as TM (0.5 mM) and EDTA (5 mM) into the extracts protected YAGFL from the degradation by more than 85% even after 24 hr-incubation, suggesting almost complete inhibition of YAGFL degradation in the extract. On the other hand, $DM-{\beta}-CyD\;or\;hydroxypropyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ (10%) were also found to retard enzymatic degradation rates of YAGFL markedly, and resulted in staying intact more than 80% of YAGFL in the nasal and vaginal mucosal extracts, and more than 60% in the rectal mucosal extract after 16 hr-incubation.

To study the feasibility of transmucosal delivery of $[D-ala^2]-methionine$ enkephalinamide (YAGFM), its enzymatic degradation and stabilization in various rabbit mucosal extracts were investigated by HPLC method. The degradation of YAGFM was observed to follow the first-order kinetics and the half-lives of YAGFM in the nasal, rectal and vaginal mucosal extracts were found to be 25.7, 3.0 and 7.8 hr, respectively. However, there was no significant difference in degradation rates of YAGFM between the mucosal and serosal extracts obtained from the same mucosal membrane. This finding suggests that even a synthetic enkephalin analog, which is designed to be resistent to aminopeptidases, needs to be fully protected from the enzymatic degradation in mucosal sites for the delivery of the analog through mucosal routes. To inhibit the degradation of YAGFM in various mucosal extracts, effects of enzyme inhibitors such as bestatin (BS), amastatin (AM), thiorphan (TP), thimerosal (TM) and EDTA, alone or in combination, and modified cyclodextrins were observed by assaying YAGFM staying intact during 24 hr-incubation at $37^{\circ}C$. It was found from the results that mixed inhibitors such as TM (0.5 mM)/EDTA (5 mM) or AM $(50{\mu}M)/TM$ (0.5 mM)/EDTA (5 mM) provided very useful means for the stabilization in various mucosal extracts. The latter was found to protect YAGFM from the degradation in the nasal, rectal, and vaginal mucosal extracts by 90.9, 90.4 and 91.3%, respectively, after 24 hr-incubation, suggesting almost complete inhibition of YAGFM-degrading enzymes present in the incubation mixture. However, BS $(50{\mu}M)$, AM 50 $(50{\mu}M)$ or TP$(50{\mu}M)$ alone did not reveal sufficient inhibition except TM (0.5 mM) or EDTA (5 mM). The adddition of $2-hydroxylpropyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$(10%) to the nasal mucosal extract, and $dimethyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$(10%) to the rectal and vaginal mucosal extracts reduced the first-order rate constants for the degradation of YAGFM by 5.8, 17.3 and 8.9 times, respectively, compared to those with no additive.

Triamino ${\alpha}$-cyclodextrin (CD) was synthesized and the inclusion complex with Minoxidil (MXD) was prepared. ${\alpha}$-CD was azidated by modifying the 6-hydroxylmethyl CD rim with sodium azide. Then, mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-azidocyclodextrins were separated by a flash column chromatography and reduced to the corresponding amines by hydrogenation with Pd/C. The substantivities of MXD included in either 2-hydroxypropyl ${\alpha}$-CD (HP ${\alpha}$-CD) or triamino ${\alpha}$-CD were evaluated in vitro using hairless mice skins. After applying the preparations onto the skin and rinsing it, the amount of the drug left on the skin was determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It was the highest when the drug was included in triamino ${\alpha}$-CD. The electrostatic interaction between the protonated amino CD and the negatively charged skin would be responsible for the relatively high substantivity. The in vivo hair growth promotion effect of each preparation was investigated, where the sample application onto the clipped backs of female mice (C57BL6) and the subsequent rinsing of the backs were done once a day for 30 days. Only MXD in triamino ${\alpha}$-CD had hair growth promotion effect, possibly due to the significant substantivity.

Enzymatic synthesis of glucosyl-sugar alcohols using various transglycosylating enzymes, such as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase), ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, and pullulanase was investigated using various sugar alcohols, such as sorbitol, xylitol, inositol, maltitol, and lactitol as glucosyl acceptors. CGTase showed the highest transglycosylating activity to sugar alcohols compared to other transglycosylating enzymes, and inositol and maltitol were the most suitable glucosyl acceptors. Soluble starch, extruded starch, cyclodextrins, and maltooligosaccharides were also identified to be adequate glucosyl donors for transglycosylation reaction of CGTase to sugar alcohols. The synthesis of glucosyl-maltitol in the reaction system using extruded starch as the glucosyl donor and maltitol as the glucosyl acceptor showed the best results showing the highest transglycosylation yield. The transglycosylation products were purified by activated carbon column chromatography with ethanol gradient elution. Chemical structures of above transglucosylated products were analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and two products were identified to be maltotritol and maltotetraitol, in which one or two glucose molecules attached to the parent maltitol molecule by a ${\alpha}$-l,4-glucosidic bond, respectively.
