  • Role of Citicoline in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury
    pharmaceuticals Review Role of Citicoline in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury Julio J. Secades Medical Department, Ferrer, 08029 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Abstract: Head injury is among the most devastating types of injury, specifically called Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). There is a need to diminish the morbidity related with TBI and to improve the outcome of patients suffering TBI. Among the improvements in the treatment of TBI, neuroprotection is one of the upcoming improvements. Citicoline has been used in the management of brain ischemia related disorders, such as TBI. Citicoline has biochemical, pharmacological, and pharmacokinetic characteristics that make it a potentially useful neuroprotective drug for the management of TBI. A short review of these characteristics is included in this paper. Moreover, a narrative review of almost all the published or communicated studies performed with this drug in the management of patients with head injury is included. Based on the results obtained in these clinical studies, it is possible to conclude that citicoline is able to accelerate the recovery of consciousness and to improve the outcome of this kind of patient, with an excellent safety profile. Thus, citicoline could have a potential role in the management of TBI.

Chemical interactions can lead to Venkateswara Rao Sultan-Ul-Uloom College of Pharmacy, degradation of the active ingredient, thereby reducing the amount available for therapeutic effect. Physical interactions can affect rate of dissolution, uniformity of dose or ease of administration. Banjara Hills, Hyderabad - 500034, A.P., India. Key words: Excipient, Drug, Interaction, Physical, Chemical. INTRODUCTION Pharmaceutical dosage form is a combination of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and excipients. Excipients are included in dosage forms to aid manufacture, administration or absorption (Crowley and Martini).The ideal excipients must be able to fulfill the important functions i.e. dose, stability and release of API from the formulation. Although considered pharmacologically inert, excipients can initiate, propagate or participate in chemical or physical interactions with drug compounds, which may compromise the effectiveness of a medication.

The synthesis of uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG), cytidine diphosphate choline (CDP- choline), glucose-l-phosphate (G1P) and glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) has been accomplished under simulated prebiotic conditions using urea and cyanamide, two condensing agents considered to have been present on the primitive Earth. The synthesis of UDPG was carried out by reacting G1P and UTP at 70 °C for 24 hours in the presence of the condensing agents in an aqueous medium. CDP-choline was obtained under the same conditions by reacting choline phosphate and CTP. G1P and G6P were synthesized from glucose and inorganic phosphate at 70°C for 16 hours.

Recent studies have provided evidence that suggests a strong association between epigenetic mechanisms throughout an organism’s lifespan and age-related disease progression. Epigenetics is considered an evolving field and regulates the genetic code at several levels. Among these are DNA changes, which include modifications to DNA methylation state, histone changes, which include modifications of methylation, acetylation, ubiquitination and phosphorylation of histones, and non-coding RNA changes. As a result, these epigenetic modifications are vital targets for potential therapeutic interventions against age-related deterioration and disease progression.

Hodgson Received: 15 November 2020; Accepted: 4 December 2020; Published: 6 December 2020 Abstract: Nucleotide sugars have essential roles in every living creature. They are the building blocks of the biosynthesis of carbohydrates and their conjugates. They are involved in processes that are targets for drug development, and their analogs are potential inhibitors of these processes. Drug development requires efficient methods for the synthesis of oligosaccharides and nucleotide sugar building blocks as well as of modified structures as potential inhibitors. It requires also understanding the details of biological and chemical processes as well as the reactivity and reactions under different conditions. This article addresses all these issues by giving a broad overview on nucleotide sugars in biological and chemical reactions. As the background for the topic, glycosylation reactions in mammalian and bacterial cells are briefly discussed. In the following sections, structures and biosynthetic routes for nucleotide sugars, as well as the mechanisms of action of nucleotide sugar-utilizing enzymes, are discussed. Chemical topics include the reactivity and chemical synthesis methods. Finally, the enzymatic in vitro synthesis of nucleotide sugars and the utilization of enzyme cascades in the synthesis of nucleotide sugars and oligosaccharides are briefly discussed. Keywords: nucleotide sugar; glycosylation; glycoconjugate; mechanism; reactivity; synthesis; chemoenzymatic synthesis 1. Introduction Nucleotide sugars consist of a monosaccharide and a nucleoside mono- or diphosphate moiety. The term often refers specifically to structures where the nucleotide is attached to the anomeric carbon of the sugar component.
