Abstract
4-Octylphenol is an endocrine disruptor, belonging to environmental estrogens. It can be enriched in the human body through the food chain and may harm human health. Herein, we used a variety of spectroscopic techniques, molecular docking, and gel electrophoresis to study the interaction of 4-octylphenol and ctDNA. It was found that the mechanism of ctDNA quenching the endogenous fluorescence of 4-octylphenol was static quenching, and formed a complex. The negative enthalpy change (ΔH°), entropy change (ΔS°) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) have shown that 4-octylphenol and ctDNA spontaneously bind together under the action of hydrogen bonds and van der Waal's force. Viscosity, melting temperature and iodide quenching experiments showed that 4-octylphenol acted on the groove of ctDNA. Insignificant change in circular dichromism spectra further confirmed this binding mode. The binding sites and groups for 4-octylphenol and ctDNA interaction were identified by molecular docking. Gel electrophoresis found that 4-octylphenol at high concentrations caused DNA cleavage. Above findings may lay a theoretical foundation for understanding the toxicity mechanism of 4-octylphenol.

Abstract
Donepezil (DNP) is one of approved drugs to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the potential effect of DNP on DNA is still unclear. Therefore, the interaction of DNP with calf thymus DNA (DNA) was studied in vitro using spectroscopic and molecular docking methods. Steady-state and transient fluorescence experiments showed that there was a clear binding interaction between DNP and DNA, resulting from DNP fluorescence being quenched using DNA. DNP and DNA have one binding site between them, and the binding constant (Kb ) was 0.78 × 104 L·mol-1 at 298 K. In this binding process, hydrophobic force was the main interaction force, because enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) of DNP-DNA were 67.92 kJ·mol-1 and 302.96 J·mol-1 ·K-1 , respectively. DNP bound to DNA in a groove-binding mode, which was verified using a competition displacement study and other typical spectroscopic methods. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum results showed that DNP interacted with guanine (G) and cytosine (C) bases of DNA. The molecular docking results further supported the results of spectroscopic experiments, and suggested that both Pi-Sigma force and Pi-Alkyl force were the major hydrophobic force functioning between DNP and DNA.

Abstract
Five new complexes with general formula [Ru(Ln)(PP)(bipy)]PF6, where Ln = N,N'-dimethyl-N-Acyl thiourea, and P-P: 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe) or 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (dppb)) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, cyclic voltammetry, IR, NMR (1H, 13C{1H} and 31P{1H}), and single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The cytotoxicity of compounds against lung and breast tumor cell lines was significant, where two complexes, [Ru(L3)(bipy)(dppe)]PF6 (3) and [Ru(L3)(bipy)(dppb)]PF6 (6), were selected to evaluate changes in morphology, inhibition of migration and cell death in the MDA-MB-231 lineage. The complexes caused alterations in the cell morphology and were able to inhibit cell migration at the concentrations evaluated, induce the cell cycle arrested in the Sub-G1 phase, and induced cell death by apoptosis. All the complexes presented interaction with HSA, and the interaction studies with DNA suggested weak interactions, probably by the minor groove.

Abstract
Artemisinin (ART) and its biogenetic precursors artemisinic acid (AA) and dihydroartemisinic acid (DHAA) are important traditional medicinal herb compounds with tumor growth inhibition properties. Herein, we have studied the cytotoxicity of ART, AA, and DHAA on different cancer cell lines (H1299, A431, and HCT 116) and investigated in detail their binding mechanisms with ctDNA by using spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and computational methods. The UV absorbance, cyclic voltammetry, DNA helix melting, competition binding, and circular dichroism studies suggested that the complex formation of ART-ctDNA and AA-ctDNA occurs through groove binding. However, in the case of DHAA-ctDNA interaction, electrostatic interaction plays a major role. The thermodynamic parameters, viz., ΔG 0, ΔH 0, and ΔS 0 were calculated, which showed the involvement of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions for drug-ctDNA interaction. FTIR and molecular docking results suggested that ART, AA, and DHAA were bound to the A-T rich region in the minor groove of ctDNA.

Abstract
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by co-precipitation method and characterized using XRD, SEM and EDS analyses. Then doxorubicin (DOX, a known anticancer drug) was loaded onto nanoparticles. In vitro DNA interaction of free DOX and loaded DOX onto Fe3O4 nanoparticles (DOX-Fe3O4) was investigated by DNA-viscosity measurements, UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopies. The obtained values for binding constant of DOX and DOX-Fe3O4 compounds from UV-visible spectroscopies were 0.04 × 105 and 0.68 × 105 L mol-1, respectively, which confirms DOX-Fe3O4 compound have a stronger interaction with CT-DNA compared to DOX. Considerable changes on viscosity of the compounds recommended that their binding mode with CT-DNA is intercalative binding. Fluorescence intensity of DOX and DOX-Fe3O4 was quenched via static process by regular addition of CT-DNA. Thermodynamic parameters suggest that Van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding for DOX and electrostatic forces for DOX-Fe3O4 are predominantly responsible for interaction with CT-DNA. Competition fluorescence studies were done by Hoechst 33258 as a well-known groove binder and ethidium bromide (EtBr) as a known intercalator probe. Percentage of displacement for EtBr-DNA complex with DOX and DOX-Fe3O4 was 39% and 61%, and for Hoechst-DNA complex was 9% and 5%, respectively. These results confirmed that both compounds are intercalator binders, although DOX-Fe3O4 with a further 22% displacement is a stronger intercalator binder than DOX. The stronger interaction of DOX-Fe3O4 compared to DOX suggests that the current system can be used as a new and effective way to targeted therapy of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The study of molecule-DNA interaction is very important for designing an improved therapeutic agent. In previous studies, we synthesized some B-norcholesteryl benzimidazole compounds, and the tests on cancer cells showed that these compounds had good in vitro anti-cancer activities. In order to further investigate mechanism of their actions, three different B-norcholesteryl benzimidazole compounds were selected and interaction of these compounds with the calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) was monitored by using various methods including UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques, viscosity measurement, and circular dichroism (CD). The results proved a hypochromic effect accompanied with a slight red-shift due to the interaction of the molecules with ct-DNA. According to the UV-Vis and fluorescence spectra, the mentioned compounds were bound to DNA, preferentially through partial intercalation into the DNA helix. Moreover, the ethidium bromide (EB) and Hoechst 33258 competitive binding experiments were also used to confirm the interaction mode of the compounds with ct-DNA. In the Hoechst 33258 displacement experiment, no significant change in the fluorescence intensity was observed. Additional assays such as iodide quenching, viscosity, and CD spectroscopy further confirmed that intercalation should be the major binding mode of the selected compounds with DNA. The cytotoxicity of these three compounds was also evaluated by MTT method, and the results confirmed that binding ability of these compounds to DNA was consistent with their cytotoxicity behavior. The experimental results indicated a higher binding affinity for compound 3 compared to the other compounds. This research provided a better understanding on the molecular mechanism of the interaction between B-norcholesteryl benzimidazole compounds and tumor cells, and offered a beneficial perspective to the designation of novel B-norsteroidal anticancer compounds.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a series of naphthalimide and phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole conjugate is described. These compounds are evaluated in vitro for their cytotoxicity towards 60 human cancer cell lines. Derivative 16 shows excellent cytotoxic activity against these cancer cell lines with the range of growth inhibition from -55.78 to 94.53. The most potent derivative (ethylpiperazine, 16) is further studied to evaluate the interaction with ct-DNA using absorption and emission spectroscopy as well as DNA viscosity measurement. The DNA binding studies indicate that compound 16 is significantly interacted with DNA through groove binding having binding constant value of 7.81 × 104 M-1 alongwith partial intercalation between the base pairs of DNA strands. Further, topoisomerase inhibition study suggests that compound 16 is induced apoptosis and inhibits human topoisomerase (Topo-IIα) as a possible intracellular target. Molecular docking study of compound 16 with ct-DNA shows good docking score.

Abstract
The investigation of the binding behavior between drug and DNA provides basic information for understanding pharmacological and toxicologic mechanisms of many drugs. Herein, a facile chemiluminescent (CL) method for investigating the binding behavior between salbutamol and calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) was established by utilizing flow microdialysis sampling technique. In a reaction equilibrium solution of salbutamol and ct-DNA, free salbutamol was extracted by a microdialysis probe, and then injected into a flow-injection CL detection system to quantitate its concentration. The binding constants of salbutamol acquired by Klotz analysis and Scatchard analysis were 2.97 × 104 M-1and 2.99 × 104 M-1, respectively. Salbutamol showed one sort of binding site on ct-DNA. Meanwhile, the three-dimensional spatial structure of the binding mode was investigated by molecular docking. The results indicate that the binding mode of salbutamol to ct-DNA was groove binding. The hydrogen bonds were primary driving force for the direct recognition of salbutamol by ct-DNA. This proof-of-principle method paves a pathway to investigate the binding behavior between small-molecular drug and DNA, and provides a theoretical guidance for designing DNA-targeting drugs.

Abstract
Nalidixic acid is a bacterial DNA gyrase inhibitor and the first member of the synthetic quinolone antibiotics. It is used in the treatment of various infectious diseases like urinary tract infections, respiratory infections, sexually transmitted diseases, acute bronchitis, and sinusitis. Interactions studies are of great significance as it will be beneficial for designing new therapeutic molecules with preferable plasma solubility and its efficacy. In this paper, we have aim to ascertain the binding mode of nalidixic acid with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) through various biophysical and in silico method. UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic experiments confirmed the formation of a complex between nalidixic acid with ct-DNA. The binding constant is in the range of 103 M-1, indicating the groove binding mode between ct-DNA and nalidixic acid. Groove binding mode was also validated by competitive displacement assay, potassium iodide quenching experiment, circular dichroism, DNA melting studies. In the case of BSA, UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic experiments confirmed the formation of a complex between nalidixic acid with BSA. The value of a binding constant in the case of BSA was found to be 1.517 × 105 M-1. The site marker displacement experiment revealed the binding location of nalidixic acid to a site I in BSA. Secondary structural and microenvironmental changes also studied through circular dichroism and three-dimensional fluorescence. Furthermore, the synchronous fluorescence spectra of BSA with nalidixic acid showed that there were changes in the microenvironment around tryptophan residues. In silico molecular docking further confirmed the binding of nalidixic acid to site I in BSA and the minor groove of DNA.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
In the present work we modified the procedure for isolation of naphthoquinones α-methylbutyrylshikon (1), acetylshikonin (2) and β-hydroxyisovalerylshikonin (3) from Onosma visianii Clem. We also investigated possible mechanisms of 1, 2 and 3 as antitumor agents. Accordingly, we estimated concentrations of superoxide anion radical (O2.-), nitrite (NO2 -) and glutathione in HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Compounds 1 and 3 expressed significant prooxidative activity, while all tested compounds exhibited significant increase in nitrite levels. Also, all examined compounds significantly increased the concentration of oxidized glutathione (GSSG), suggesting significant prooxidative disbalance. The levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) were also elevated as a part of antioxidative cell response. The data indicate that induced oxidative imbalance could be one of the triggers for previously recorded decreased viability of HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cells exposed to tested naphthoquinone derivatives. Moreover, we examined interactions mode of compounds 1, 2 and 3 with CT-DNA as one of the crucial targets of many molecules that express cytotoxic activity. The results obtained by UV-visible, fluorescence and molecular docking study revealed that 1, 2 and 3 bound to CT-DNA through minor groove binding. Furthermore, the interactions between HSA and 1, 2 and 3 were examined employing the same methods as for the CT-DNA interaction study. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that naphthoquinones 1, 2 and 3 could be effectively transported by human serum albumin. As a conclusion, this study provides further insight of antitumor activity of selected naphthoquinones.

Abstract
The present study describes the investigation of the binding modes of potential anti-cancerous nitrophenyl derivatives of 2-(x-nitrophenyl)-5-nitrobenzimidazole with calf thymus DNA. The -2-(x-nitrophenyl)-5-nitrobenzimidazoles under investigation differ only in position x of nitro group in nitrophenyl substituent relative to benzimidazole moiety leading to 1-NPNB (x = 2), 2-NPNB (x = 3) and 3-NPNB (x = 4). The DFT calculations predicted that derivatives were electrochemically reducible which was then confirmed by cyclic voltammetry. In cyclic voltammetry, the second reversible peak was dependent on first irreversible reduction. This revealed that electrochemical irreversible process was governed by some other process which was then followed by reversible second electron transfer. Thus, ECE (electron transfer leading to coupled chemical reaction followed by another electron transfer process) mechanism was attributed for electrochemical reduction. Experimental results based on UV-Vis spectroscopy vaguely showed intercalation of 1-NPNB, 2-NPNB and 3-NPNB into DNA which was assisted by cyclic voltammetry. However, thermal melting and florescence spectroscopy unambiguously established intercalation for all three compounds. Molecular docking analysis ascertained in pocket stacking of 5-nitrobenzimidazole moiety in 1-NPNB and 2-NPNB while nitro phenyl substitution in 3-NPNB stacks between DNA base pair during intercalation which was in agreement with DFT computed molecular geometry. Therefore, the relative positions of nitro group and 5-nitrobenzimidazole moieties in 2-(x-nitrophenyl)- 5-nitrobenzimidazole influenced the DNA binding pattern of compounds during intercalation. The cytotoxicity of these compounds was comparable to standard drug doxorubicin against both cancerous (MCF-7) and normal (MCF-10A) breast cells which depicts their anti-cancerous potential.

Abstract
The Schiff base compound MTA ((E)-5-methyl-N'-((5-methylthiophen-2-yl)methylene)-1H-pyrazole-3-carbohydrazide) derived from 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde and 5-methylpyrazole-3-carbohydrazide has been designed to develop new sulphur containing DNA targeted molecule. The MTA has been characterized by elemental analyses, 1H-NMR, single crystal X-ray diffraction studies as well as by geometry optimization of using DFT/B3LYP. The interaction of MTA with Calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was studied by spectroscopic and calorimetric techniques. The synthesized compound was found to bind with CT-DNA through groove binding mode, and the binding constant was estimated to be (4.15 ± 0.08) × 104 M-1. The negative ΔG0 and positive ΔS0 values obtained from the calorimetric technique confirmed the spontaneity of the binding of MTA with DNA.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Considering the need for the development of new antitumor drugs, associated with the great antitumor potential of thiophene and thiosemicarbazonic derivatives, in this work we promote molecular hybridization approach to synthesize new compounds with increased anticancer activity. OBJECTIVE Investigate the antitumor activity and their likely mechanisms of action of a series of N-substituted 2-(5-nitro-thiophene)-thiosemicarbazone derivatives. METHODS Methods were performed in vitro (cytotoxicity, cell cycle progression, morphological analysis, mitochondrial membrane potential evaluation and topoisomerase assay), spectroscopic (DNA interaction studies), and in silico studies (docking and molecular modelling). RESULTS Most of the compounds presented significant inhibitory activity; the NCIH-292 cell line was the most resistant, and the HL-60 cell line was the most sensitive. The most promising compound was LNN-05 with IC50 values ranging from 0.5 to 1.9 µg.mL-1. The in vitro studies revealed that LNN-05 was able to depolarize (dose-dependently) the mitochondrial membrane, induceG1 phase cell cycle arrest noticeably, promote morphological cell changes associated with apoptosis in chronic human myelocytic leukaemia (K-562) cells, and presented no topoisomerase II inhibition. Spectroscopic UV-vis and molecular fluorescence studies showed that LNN compounds interact with ctDNA forming supramolecular complexes. Intercalation between nitrogenous bases was revealed through KI quenching and competitive ethidium bromide assays. Docking and Molecular Dynamics suggested that 5-nitro-thiophene-thiosemicarbazone compounds interact against the larger DNA groove, and corroborating the spectroscopic results, may assume an intercalating interaction mode. CONCLUSION Our findings highlight 5-nitro-thiophene-thiosemicarbazone derivatives, especially LNN-05, as a promising new class of compounds for further studies to provide new anticancer therapies.

Abstract
Thirteen novel palladium(II) complexes of the general formula [Pd(bipy)(O,O'-dkt)](PF6), (where bipy is 2,2'-bipyridine and O,O'-dkt is β-diketonate ligand hispolon or its derivative) have been prepared through a metal-ligand coordination method that involves spontaneous formation of the corresponding diketonate scaffold. The obtained palladium(II) complexes have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy, ESI-mass spectrometry as well as elemental analysis. The cytotoxicity analysis indicates that most of the obtained palladium(II) complexes show promising growth inhibition in three human cancer cell lines. Flow cytometry analysis shows complex 3e could promote intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and lead cancer cell death. And the suppression of ROS accumulation and the rescue of cell viability in HeLa cells by N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) suggest the possible link between the increase in ROS generation and cytotoxicity of complex 3e. Flow cytometry analysis also reveal that complex 3e cause cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase and collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential, promote the generation of ROS and lead to tumor cell apoptosis. The interactions of complex 3e with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) have been evaluated by UV-Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence quenching experiments and viscosity measurements, which reveal that the complex interact with CT-DNA through minor groove binding and/or electrostatic interactions. Further, the results of fluorescence titration and site marker competitive experiment on bovine serum albumin (BSA) suggest that complex 3e can quench the fluorescence of BSA via a static quenching process and bind to BSA in Sudlow's site II.

Abstract
A novel series of 6-substituted-8-(1-cyclohexyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-6-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine and 6-substituted-8-(1-benzyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-6-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine is first time synthesized and screen in vitro biological activity for 60 human cancer cell lines representing nine different cancer types. Derivatives 10 and 36 show antitumor activity for all tested cell lines, display comparable full panel mean-graph midpoint growth inhibition (MG_MID GI50) values of 2.10 and 2.23 μM, respectively. Furthermore, these derivatives show strong binding interactions with DNA and bovine serum albumin (BSA), studied through absorption, emission, and circular dichroism techniques. These spectroscopic studies reveal that imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine-benzimidazoles 10 and 36, intercalate with ct-DNA as a leading interaction for fundamental biologically significant effects, with monobenzimidazole show better activity than bisbenzimidazole. These experiments have confirmed that the imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine and benzimidazole moieties are efficient pharmacophores to trigger binding to DNA. These compounds have also interacted with bovine serum albumin protein that demonstrating high values of binding constant.

Bioorg Chem 2019; 89:103014. [PMID: 31170642 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2019.103014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2019] [Revised: 05/23/2019] [Accepted: 05/24/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
Seventy-one 7-oxycoumarins, 66 synthesized and 5 commercially sourced, were tested for their ability to inhibit growth in murine PAM212 keratinocytes. Forty-nine compounds from the library demonstrated light-induced lethality. None was toxic in the absence of UVA light. Structure-activity correlations indicate that the ability of the compounds to inhibit cell growth was dependent not only on their physiochemical characteristics, but also on their ability to absorb UVA light. Relative lipophilicity was an important factor as was electron density in the pyrone ring. Coumarins with electron withdrawing moieties - cyano and fluoro at C3 - were considerably less active while those with bromines or iodine at that location displayed enhanced activity. Coumarins that were found to inhibit keratinocyte growth were also tested for photo-induced DNA plasmid nicking. A concentration-dependent alteration in migration on neutral gels caused by nicking was observed.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most outrageous subtype of breast cancer. Emphasizing the urge of new approach in cancer therapy, combinational drug therapy may be proven as an effective strategy. In our previous study, we reported that coralyne (COR) with paclitaxel (PTX) efficiently decreases the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 compared with MCF-7 cell line. Thus, we studied the effect of COR and PTX in combination on apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cell line. In silico results demonstrated that COR intercalates DNA at a minor groove. In vitro approaches revealed that in combination (COR and PTX) increases the efficacy of apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cell line by a significant increase in G1/S phase arrest, DNA fragmentation, and change in mitochondria membrane potential. The expression of ATM and ATR a serine/threonine-protein kinase, ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein were depleted with an increase in time from 24 to 48 hours in concurrent with increased levels of γH2AX indicating that DNA damage routes cells to enter apoptosis. This was confirmed by high levels of caspase-3 and cytochrome c. Also, the decrease in the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 confirmed the antimetastatic efficacy of COR + PTX. The present study indicates that the synergistic effect of COR and PTX can enhance apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cell line and may be proven as a potential anticancer therapy against TNBC.

Abstract
Carbon black (CB), a carbonaceous nanoparticle, has been widely applied in our daily lives and used as a typical model to study environmental safety and health impacts of airborne particles. Although the potential negative effects of CB to organisms have been reported a lot, very limited work is focused on the genotoxicity of CB on molecular and cellular level simultaneously. Herein, we investigated the interaction mechanism between CB and DNA molecule in depth by multiple spectra measurement, UV-vis absorption and ionic strength measurement. The fluorescence spectroscopy, ironic strength measurement and UV absorption indicated that CB changed the structure of DNA and interacted with DNA in an electrostatic binding mode. CD (circular dichroism) spectra proved no significant effects were caused by CB on the base stacking and helicity bands of DNA, which further verified that electrostatic binding is the main binding mode between CB and DNA. On the cellular level, the comet assay shows that CB exposure could cause a remarkable DNA strand break to the mouse hepatocytes after 24 co-incubation. This combined investigation suggests that CB could cause a serious genotoxicity both on molecular and cellular level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-HMF), a by-product of the Maillard reaction, usually present in fried and baked food, may cause potential harm to the human body. Here, the interaction between 5-HMF and calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) under physiological buffer (pH 7.4) was studied using multi-spectroscopic methods combined with multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) chemometrics and molecular simulation techniques. RESULTS The concentration profiles and pure spectra of the three components (5-HMF, ctDNA and 5-HMF-ctDNA complex) were extracted from highly overlapping spectra using MCR-ALS analysis, which verified the formation of 5-HMF-ctDNA complex. The binding constant being of the order of 103 L mol-1 at four temperatures (292, 298, 304 and 310 K) indicated a weak affinity in the binding of 5-HMF to ctDNA. The binding interaction was mainly driven by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. Viscosity analysis, melting assay, ionic strength effect and competitive fluorescence studies ascertained that 5-HMF bound to ctDNA through groove binding, and it tended to bind to guanine-cytosine rich region of ctDNA which was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectra and molecular docking. Circular dichroism spectral analysis and DNA cleavage assays indicated that the ctDNA conformation was altered from B to A form and 5-HMF caused DNA damage at higher concentration. CONCLUSIONS The results suggested that 5-HMF bound to ctDNA through groove binding and caused DNA damage. This research may contribute to understand the binding mechanism of 5-HMF to ctDNA and to the assessment of the toxicological effect of 5-HMF in biological processes. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Stilbene derivatives have been found to possess promising anticancer activities against human cancer cell lines in vitro. In the present study, we have investigated cytotoxic, apoptosis induction and DNA binding activity of new stilbene derivative, (E)-1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-2-[4-(4-methoxystryl)phenyl]-1H-imidazol (STIM) on K562 chronic myeloid leukemia cell line. Via MTT assay STIM demonstrated cytotoxic activity against K562 cell line with IC50 value of 150 µM. Apoptosis, as the mechanism of cell death, was evaluated by morphological study and flow cytometric analysis. In vitro DNA binding property of STIM has been studied by vital spectroscopic techniques, which indicated that STIM interact with ctDNA through groove binding mode and binding constant (Kb) was estimated to be 6.9 × 104 M-1. Docking studies revealed that hydrophobic is the most important interaction in STIM-DNA complex, and that the ligand (STIM) interacts with DNA via groove binding mode and the bindiyspng energy was calculated as -13.37 kcal/mol. Taken together, the present study suggests that STIM exhibits anticancer effect on K562 cell line through the induction of apoptosis as well as cell cycle arrest at Sub-G1 phase and also can bind to double helix DNA in vitro.

Abstract
The combination effects of nanodiamonds (NDs) and Paclitaxel (PTX) on the DNA structure were examined. The UV-Visible, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, CD, viscosity and zeta potential results showed that PTX + NDs could form a complex via groove binding mechanism. The values of binding constants, ΔG° and ΔH° and ΔS° values showed that PTX + NDs interact strongly with DNA and the hydrophobic force plays main role in this interaction. The ΔG25ο and Tm study indicated the instability of DNA in presence of PTX + NDs. This study demonstrated that NDs could enhance the effect of PTX on DNA structure as well as its affinity and binding to DNA.

Abstract
A novel and sensitive fluorescent sensor was synthesized for the rapid and specific recognition of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) by our combining molecular imprinting techniques with quantum dot technology. Molecularly imprinted polymers coated CdTe quantum dots (MIP@CdTe QDs) were prepared through the Stöber method with 5,7-dimethoxycoumarin as a dummy template. 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane was selected as the functional monomer, and tetraethyl orthosilicate was used as the cross-linking agent. The best molar ratio of 5,7-dimethoxycoumarin to functional monomer to cross-linker was 4:20:15. The MIP@CdTe QD composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Under the optimum conditions, the relative fluorescence intensity of the MIP@CdTe QDs showed adequate linearity with AFB1 concentration over the range from 80 to 400 ng/g. The detection limit is 4 ng/g, according to 3s/K. Finally, the method was successfully applied to the quantitative determination of AFB1 in real samples. The spike recoveries at different spiking levels ranged from 99.20% to 101.78%, which were consistent with those measured by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The method developed for AFB1 detection lays the foundation for rapid detection of trace amounts of other exogenous harmful substances in a complicated matrix.

Abstract
The interaction of SnMe2Cl2(bu2bpy)complex with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) has been explored following, using spectroscopic methods, viscosity measurements, Atomic force microscopy, Thermal denaturation and Molecular docking. It was found that Sn(IV) complex could bind with DNA via intercalation mode as evidenced by hyperchromism and bathochromic in UV-Vis spectrum; these spectral characteristics suggest that the Sn(IV) complex interacts with DNA most likely through a mode that involves a stacking interaction between the aromatic chromophore and the base pairs of DNA. In addition, the fluorescence emission spectra of intercalated methylene blue (MB) with increasing concentrations of SnMe2Cl2(bu2bpy) represented a significant increase of MB intensity as to release MB from MB-DNA system. Positive values of ΔH and ΔS imply that the complex is bound to ct-DNA mainly via the hydrophobic attraction. Large complexes contain the DNA chains with an average size of 859 nm were observed by using AFM for Sn(IV) Complex-DNA. The Fourier transform infrared study showed a major interaction of Sn(IV) complex with G-C and A-T base pairs and a minor perturbation of the backbone PO2 group. Addition of the Sn(IV)complex results in a noticeable rise in the Tm of DNA. In addition, the results of viscosity measurements suggest that SnMe2Cl2(bu2bpy) complex may bind with the classical intercalative mode. From spectroscopic and hydrodynamic studies, it has been found that Sn(IV)complex interacts with DNA by intercalation mode. Optimized docked model of DNA-complex mixture confirmed the experimental results.

Abstract
Camptothecin (CMT) is an anti-tumour alkaloid drug exhibiting selective topoisomerase-I inhibitory activity by eventually hindering dynamic functions of DNA duplex via initiating apoptosis. Unravelling the binding mechanism of CMT with bio macromolecular systems can offer fundamental information regarding the mechanism of actions which can lead to the design of rational proactive drugs. This study endeavoured the binding interactions of CMT with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) along with the structural alterations attained by the DNA duplex owing to CMT interactions through multi-spectroscopic, calorimetric and molecular docking studies. The UV-visible absorbance and fluorescence quenching studies revealed the binding strength of CMT with ct-DNA, evident from the binding constants K1 = 3.79 × 103 M-1 and Kq = 2 × 103 M-1. The time-resolved lifetime measurements inferred that the quenching was static due to the non-fluorescent ground state complex formation. The dye displacement study, temperature melting and viscosity measurements established a typical non-intercalative binding mode of CMT with ct-DNA. The binding isotherm deduced from ITC was found to be spontaneous and exothermic exerting a promising ΔG value of -6.2 kcal mol-1. The thermal kinetic parameters implied that the forces primarily involved in the CMT-ct-DNA complexation are hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions. Moreover, the structural alterations of DNA duplex reflected in the CD and FTIR spectra could undeniably confirm the groove binding manner of CMT. The in silico extra precision docking study explored more accurate molecular illustrations of sequence specific minor groove binding mechanism evolved between CMT and DNA corroborating well with the experimental results. These innovative findings may shorten the path towards the development of novel and more effective CMT drug derivatives.

Abstract
Interaction of a ligand with DNA is often the basis of drug action of many molecules. Flavones are important in this regard as their structural features confer them the ability to bind to DNA. 2-(4-Nitrophenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (4NCO) is an important biologically active synthetic flavone derivative. We are therefore interested in studying its interaction with DNA. Absorption spectroscopy studies included standard and reverse titration, effect of ionic strength on titration, determination of stoichiometry of binding and thermal denaturation. Spectrofluorimetry techniques included fluorimetric titration, quenching studies and fluorescence displacement assay. Assessment of relative viscosity and estimation of thermodynamic parameters from CD spectral studies were also undertaken. Furthermore, molecular docking analyses were also done with different short DNA sequences. The fluorescent flavone 4NCO reversibly interacted with DNA through partial intercalation as well as minor-groove binding. The binding constant and the number of binding sites were of the order 104 M-1 and 1 respectively. The binding stoichiometry with DNA was found to be 1:1. The nature of the interaction of 4NCO with DNA was hydrophobic in nature and the process of binding was spontaneous, endothermic and entropy-driven. The flavone also showed a preference for binding to GC rich sequences. The study presents a profile for structural and thermodynamic parameters, for the binding of 4NCO with DNA. DNA is an important target for ligands that are effective against cell proliferative disorders. In this regard, the molecule 4NCO is important since it can exert its biological activity through its DNA binding ability and can be a potential drug candidate.
