A novel cyclodextrin (CD)-based controlled release system was developed in the small intestine to control the rate of drug release, on the premise of enteric-coated tablets. The system was designed based on the enzymes exogenous β-cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (β-CGTase) and endogenous maltase-glucoamylase (MG), wherein MG is secreted in the small intestine and substituted by a congenerous amyloglucosidase (AG). The vanillin-/curcumin-β-CD complexes were prepared and detected by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and host CD degradation was measured based on the glucose yield. The combination of β-CGTase and AG was also functional in the CD complex system. The variations in the concentrations of added β-CGTase, with AG constantly in excess, could effectively alter the rate of host CD degradation and guest release by monitoring glucose production and color disappearance, thus, demonstrating that guest release in the CD complex system could be precisely controlled by changing the amount of β-CGTase used. Thus, the in vitro simulation of the system indicated that a novel controlled release system, based on endogenous MG, could be established in the small intestine. The CD-based controlled release system can be potentially applied in drug delivery and absorption in the small intestine.
