We evaluated the ability of two modified cyclodextrins, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-Cyd) and 2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DMP-Cyd), to influence the percutaneous absorption through isolated human stratum corneum and epidermis (SCE) of celecoxib (CCB). Previous studies demonstrated that DM-beta-Cyd includes the drug, producing a significant increase of water solubility (0.5 mg/ml at 25 degrees C) and dissolution rate of CCB. In this work chemical-physical characterization studies were performed to evaluate the ability of HP-O-Cyd to include CCB. We showed that only an external interaction could exist between CCB and HP-P-Cyd that positively influences the water solubility of the drug (0.12 mg/ml at 25 degrees C for CCB-HP-beta-CyD system and 4.12 x 10(-3) Mg/ml at 25 degrees C for free CCB). In vitro percutaneous experiments were performed using samples in solution and in suspension containing different Cyd concentrations. Both HP-beta-Cyd and DM-beta-Cyd enhanced drug flux through SCE by means of an increase of dissolution rate of the drug as well as a direct action on the stratum corneum (SC). Histological analysis of treated SCE showed a protective effect of the two Cyds towards an invasive action shown by CCB on SC. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract
We evaluated the ability of two modified cyclodextrins, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-Cyd) and 2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DMP-Cyd), to influence the percutaneous absorption through isolated human stratum corneum and epidermis (SCE) of celecoxib (CCB). Previous studies demonstrated that DM-beta-Cyd includes the drug, producing a significant increase of water solubility (0.5 mg/ml at 25 degrees C) and dissolution rate of CCB. In this work chemical-physical characterization studies were performed to evaluate the ability of HP-O-Cyd to include CCB. We showed that only an external interaction could exist between CCB and HP-P-Cyd that positively influences the water solubility of the drug (0.12 mg/ml at 25 degrees C for CCB-HP-beta-CyD system and 4.12 x 10(-3) Mg/ml at 25 degrees C for free CCB). In vitro percutaneous experiments were performed using samples in solution and in suspension containing different Cyd concentrations. Both HP-beta-Cyd and DM-beta-Cyd enhanced drug flux through SCE by means of an increase of dissolution rate of the drug as well as a direct action on the stratum corneum (SC). Histological analysis of treated SCE showed a protective effect of the two Cyds towards an invasive action shown by CCB on SC. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
