skin metabolism - Opis:
- Purpose. Besides being widely used in cosmetics, retinoids are potent therapeutic agents used topically and systemically as anti-acne agents. The aim of this study was to predict with the use of MetaSite the skin metabolism of selected retinoids employed in treatment of skin disorders and found in cosmeceuticals. The following compounds were studied: retinol, retinaldehyde, retinoic acid, retinyl acetate, retinyl palmitate, acitretin, etretinate, adapalene and bexarotene. Methods. MetaSite, Molecular Discovery Ltd. is a computational model that enables prediction of cytochrome P450-dependant metabolism. This software indicates atoms in the molecule structure that are mostly vulnerable to metabolic changes and predicts the metabolite structures. Results. MetaSite indicated that retinol and retinal metabolites were obtained through hydroxylation of the methyl group located in the position 3 of the aliphatic chain, whereas retinoic acid biotransformation would occur principally in the carbon atom situated in the position 4 in the cyclohexene ring. In acitretin molecule, carbon atom of the methoxy group attached to the benzene ring displayed the highest probability of biotransformation. In etretinate, metabolic reactions would occur principally on the carbon atom of the final ethyl group of the molecule. Conclusions. MetaSite metabolism predictions for retinoic acid, acitretin, etretinate, adapalene and bexarotene were in agreement with experimental findings. In case of compounds being converted by catalysts other than cytochrome P450 enzymes, the primary metabolites predicted by MetaSite differ from those reported previously. In conclusion, MetaSite is a useful tool that can aid identification of the major metabolites of compounds being administered topically.
