In this study, we investigated the ability of the general anesthetic propofol (PR) to form inclusion complexes with modified beta-cyclodextrins, including sulfobutylether-beta-cyclodextrin (SBE beta CD) and hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP beta CD). The PR/SBE beta CD and PR/HP beta CD complexes were prepared and characterized, and the blood brain barrier (BBB) permeation potential of the formulated PR was examined in vivo for the purpose of controlled drug delivery. The PR/SBE beta CD complex was found to be more stable in solution with a minimal degradation constant of 0.25 h(-1), a t(1/2) of 2.82 h, and a K-c of 5.19 X 10(3) M-1 and revealed higher BBB permeability rates compared with the reference substance (PR-LIPURO) considering the calculated brain-to-blood concentration ratio (logBB) values. Additionally, the diminished PR binding affinity to SBE beta CD was confirmed in molecular dynamics simulations by a maximal Gibbs free energy of binding (Delta G(bind) = -18.44 kcal.mol(-1)), indicating the more rapid PR/SBE beta CD dissociation. Overall, the results demonstrated that SBE beta CD has the potential to be used as a prospective candidate for drug delivery vector development to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of general anesthetic agents at the BBB level.
