Application


Useful for the solubilization of nonpolar macromolecules such as fatty acids, lipids, and cholesterol for use in cell culture applications. ?-Cyclodextrin has been used to solubilize odanacatib, a cathepsin K inhibitor.


Biochem/physiol Actions


?-Cyclodextrin is found to form a firm complex with dietary fats. This way it decreases the bioavailability and absorption of fats. It is known to regulate triglyceride and leptin levels in serum. In rat models, ?-Cyclodextrin is shown to induce insulin sensitivity and fecal fat excretion. Thus, ?-cyclodextrin is considered to be effective for treating obesity and metabolic syndromes.


General description


?-Cyclodextrin (?-CD) is a cyclic oligosaccharide that consists of six glucopyranose units linked by ?-(1,4) bonds. ?-CD acts as a soluble dietary fiber and hence it is preferred to be widely used in food industry.
