(-)-Isopulegol

Research use only, not for human use.

Isopulegol has antioxidant, and neuroactive properties. It also has gastroprotective effects induced by isopulegol appear to be mediated, at least in part, by endogenous prostaglandins, K+ATP channel opening and antioxidant proprieties related to GSH increased.

Isopulegol has antioxidant, and neuroactive properties. It also has gastroprotective effects induced by isopulegol appear to be mediated, at least in part, by endogenous prostaglandins, K+ATP channel opening and antioxidant proprieties related to GSH increased.Saturated long-chain esters of Isopulegol were synthesized and their activities as permeation enhancers for transdermal delivery of amlodipine and flurbiprofen were investigated, in contrast to the saturated fatty acids and Isopulegol, as well as their physical mixtures. METHODS AND RESULTS: In vitro permeation experiments, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy were introduced to investigate the regulation of enhancers in the skin permeability and biophysical properties. With in vitro cytotoxicity test and in vivo erythema model, the skin irritation of enhancers was evaluated. The esters significantly increased the permeation of amlodipine and flurbiprofen, whereas saturated fatty acids and Isopulegol had no such effect and even decreased the drug permeation when they were used alone or in combination. These results were supported by CLSM and ATR-FTIR studies, which revealed that only the esters could decrease the order of the alkyl chains in the skin lipids. Additionally, almost no skin irritation and cytotoxicity were observed for these esters. CONCLUSIONS:Saturated long-chain esters of Isopulegol are shown to be suitable permeation enhancers for transdermal drug delivery. Covalent attachment of Isopulegol and saturated fatty acids might represent a promising strategy to design novel and potent permeation enhancers.
