%X lodextrin dimer complexes of dopamine and levodopa derivatives to assess drug delivery to the central nervous system: ADME and molecular docking studies Original Research (2505) Total Article Views Authors: Shityakov S, Broscheit J, F rster C Published Date June 2012 Volume 2012:7 Pages 3211 - 3219 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.2147/IJN.S31373 Received: 01 March 2012 Accepted: 21 March 2012 Published: 27 June 2012 Sergey Shityakov, Jens Broscheit, Carola F rster Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care, University of W¨ąrzburg, W¨ąrzburg, Germany Abstract: This paper attempts to predict and emphasize molecular interactions of dopamine, levodopa, and their derivatives (Dopimid compounds) containing 2-phenyl-imidazopyridine moiety with the ¦Á-cyclodextrin dimer in order to assess and improve drug delivery to the central nervous system. The molecular docking method is used to determine the energetic profiles, hydrogen bond formation, and hydrophobic effect of 14 host¨Cguest complexes. The results show that the ˇ°chemical branchingˇ± represented by additional ethyl-acetate residue is energetically unfavorable and promotes a conformational shift due to the high root mean square deviation levels. This phenomenon is characterized by a low number of H-bonds and a significant decrease of the host¨Cguest hydrophobic potential surface. Finally, the overall docking procedure presents a powerful rationale for screening and analyzing various sets of promising drug-like chemical compounds in the fields of supramolecular chemistry, molecular sensing, synthetic receptors, and nanobiotechnology.
