Nano-sized warriors: zinc chromium vanadate nanoparticles as a dual solution for eradicating waterborne enterobacteriaceae and fighting cancer. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1213824. [PMID: 37521476 PMCID: PMC10373886 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1213824] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The revolution of biomedical applications has opened new avenues for nanotechnology. Zinc Chromium vanadate nanoparticles (VCrZnO4 NPs) have emerged as an up-and-coming candidate, with their exceptional physical and chemical properties setting them apart. In this study, a one-pot solvothermal method was employed to synthesize VCrZnO4 NPs, followed by a comprehensive structural and morphological analysis using a variety of techniques, including X-Ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, Energy-dispersive X-ray, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. These techniques confirmed the crystallinity of the NPs. The VCrZnO4 NPs were tested for their antibacterial activity against primary contaminants such as Enterobacteriaceae, including Shigella flexneri, Salmonella cholerasis, and Escherichia coli, commonly found in hospital settings, using the broth dilution technique. The results indicated a stronger antibacterial activity of VCrZnO4 NPs against Shigella and Salmonella than E. coli. Electron microscopy showed that the NPs caused severe damage to the bacterial cell wall and membrane, leading to cell death. In addition, the study evaluated the anticancer activities of the metal complexes in vitro using colorectal cancer cells (HCT-116) and cervical cancer cells (HELA), along with non-cancer cells and human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293). A vanadium complex demonstrated efficient anticancer effects with half-inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 38.50+3.50 g/mL for HCT-116 cells and 42.25+4.15 g/mL for HELA cells. This study highlights the potential of Zinc Chromium vanadate nanoparticles as promising candidates for antibacterial and anticancer applications. Various advanced characterization techniques were used to analyze the properties of nanomaterials, which may help develop more effective and safer antibacterial and anticancer agents in the future.

Abstract
The work is focused on anticancer properties of dipicolinate (dipic)-based vanadium(IV) complexes [VO(dipic)(N∩N)] bearing different diimines (2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine, 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole, 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione, 1,10-phenanthroline, and 2,2'-bipyridine), as well as differently 4,7-substituted 1,10-phenanthrolines. The antiproliferative effect of V(IV) systems was analyzed in different tumors (A2780, HCT116, and HCT116-DoxR) and normal (primary human dermal fibroblasts) cell lines, revealing a high cytotoxic effect of [VO(dipic)(N∩N)] with 4,7-dimethoxy-phen (5), 4,7-diphenyl-phen (6), and 1,10-phenanthroline (8) against HCT116-DoxR cells. The cytotoxicity differences between these complexes can be correlated with their different internalization by HCT116-DoxR cells. Worthy of note, these three complexes were found to (i) induce cell death through apoptosis and autophagy pathways, namely, through ROS production; (ii) not to be cytostatic; (iii) to interact with the BSA protein; (iv) do not promote tumor cell migration or a pro-angiogenic capability; (v) show a slight in vivo anti-angiogenic capability, and (vi) do not show in vivo toxicity in a chicken embryo.

Abstract
In the present work, two novel complexes of zinc(II) and copper(II) were synthesized from the ligand 2-((2-hydroxyethyl)amino)quinoline-3-carbaldehyde (H 2 L) in a 1:2 metal-to-ligand ratio in methanol. The complexes were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experimental techniques and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The spectral data revealed that the mono-deprotonated (HL) ligand acted as a bidentate ligand, which bound to both Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions via the nitrogen atom of the amine (N-H) and the hydroxyl (O-H) groups through the deprotonated oxygen atom. Formation constants and thermal analysis indicated that both metal complexes are stable up to 100 °C with thermodynamically favored chemical reactions. The Cu(II) complex showed antibacterial activities with the zones of inhibition of 20.90 ± 2.00 mm against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 19.69 ± 0.71 mm against Staphylococcus aureus, and 18.58 ± 1.04 mm against Streptococcus pyogenes. These results are relatively higher compared with the Zn(II) complex at the same concentration. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results for the complexes also showed similar trends against the three bacteria. On the other hand, radical scavenging activities of both Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes showed half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 4.72 and 8.2 μg/mL, respectively, while ascorbic acid (a positive control) has a value of 4.28 μg/mL. The Cu(II) complex exhibited better communication with the positive control, indicating its potential use for biological activities. The calculated and in silico molecular docking results also strongly support the experimental results.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a complex and heterogeneous disease associated with hyperglycemia, is a leading cause of mortality and reduces life expectancy. Vanadium complexes have been studied for the treatment of diabetes. The effect of complex [VO(bpy)(mal)]·H2O (complex A) was evaluated in a human hepatocarcinoma (HepG2) cell line and in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic male Wistar rats conditioned in seven groups with different treatments (n = 10 animals per group). Electron paramagnetic resonance and 51V NMR analyses of complex A in high-glucose Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) revealed the oxidation and hydrolysis of the oxidovanadium(IV) complex over a period of 24 h at 37 °C to give low-nuclearity vanadates "V1" (H2VO4-), "V2" (H2V2O72-), and "V4" (V4O124-). In HepG2 cells, complex A exhibited low cytotoxic effects at concentrations 2.5 to 7.5 μmol L-1 (IC50 10.53 μmol L-1) and increased glucose uptake (2-NBDG) up to 93%, an effect similar to insulin. In STZ-induced diabetic rats, complex A at 10 and 30 mg kg-1 administered by oral gavage for 12 days did not affect the animals, suggesting low toxicity or metabolic impairment during the experimental period. Compared to insulin treatment alone, complex A (30 mg kg-1) in association with insulin was found to improve glycemia (30.6 ± 6.3 mmol L-1 vs. 21.1 ± 8.6 mmol L-1, respectively; p = 0.002), resulting in approximately 30% additional reduction in glycemia. The insulin-enhancing effect of complex A was associated with low toxicity and was achieved via oral administration, suggesting the potential of complex A as a promising candidate for the adjuvant treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
Herein, we report novel Co(II) and V(IV) complexes synthesized from an (E)-2-(((2-((2-hydroxyethyl)amino)quinolin-3-yl)methylene)amino)ethan-1-ol ligand (L), cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate, and vanadyl(IV) sulfate in methanolic solutions. The ligand and the complexes were characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy,13C NMR spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), mass spectroscopy (MS), thermal analysis, and molar conductance. The FT-IR spectral data showed that the ligand adopted a tridentate fashion when binding with the metal ions via the nitrogen atoms of the imine (C=N) and amine (N-H), and the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group (O-H). The PXRD and SEM results indicated that the complexes are amorphous in nature. The density functional theory (DFT) calculated absorption and IR spectra agree very well with the corresponding experimental results. The antibacterial activities of the free ligand and its complexes were evaluated using a paper disk diffusion method. The complexes have better percent activitiy index than the free ligand. The cobalt complex exhibited a more recognizable antibacterial activity than the vanadium complex, specifically against Pseudomonas aeruginosa with a mean inhibition zone of 18.62 ± 0.19 mm, when compared with the positive control, ciprofloxacin, with a mean inhibition zone of 22.98 ± 0.08 mm at the same concentration. Furthermore, the antioxidant activities of the free ligand and its metal complexes were also determined in vitro using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl. The ligand exhibited less in vitro antioxidant activity than its transition metal complexes, in which the cobalt complex has a better antioxidant activity with half-inhibitory concentrations (IC50 of 16.01 μg/mL) than the ligand and the vanadium complex. Quantum molecular descriptors from the DFT calculations further support the experimental results. Molecular docking analysis also shed more light on the biological activities of the novel cobalt and vanadium complexes.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is chronic and metabolic disorder, which is mainly attributed by hyperglycemia. Vanadium salts and their oxo-complexes have been shown to possess insulin-mimetic and anti-diabetic activities in animal models and diabetic patients. The main goal of this study was to investigate the protective effect of oxovanadium(IV) complex based on thiosemicarbazone (VOL) [L: (N(1)-2,4-dihydroxybenzylidene-N-(4)-2-hydroxybenzylidene-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazidato-oxovanadium(IV)] on glycoprotein components levels and oxidative lung injury of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Male Swiss albino rats were separated into four groups. Group I (n = 5): Control (normal) animals, Group II (n = 5): Control animals administered with VOL, Group III (n = 6): STZ-induced diabetic animals, and Group IV (n = 5): STZ-induced diabetic rats treated with VOL. VOL was given to the experimental animals by gavage at a dose of 0.2 mM/kg body weight every day for 12 days. Diabetes was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (65 mg/kg body weight). On the 12th day, lung tissue samples were taken. Glycoprotein components, advanced oxidation protein products, protein carbonyl, hydroxyproline levels, and prolidase, arginase, xanthine oxidase, catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-S-transferase and adenosine deaminase activities significantly increased whereas aryl esterase, paraoxonase-1, carbonic anhydrase, Na+/K+-ATPase activities remarkably decreased in lung tissue of diabetic rats. Treatment with VOL reversed these effects showing a beneficial effect. The present study shows that VOL has a protective effect against diabetes-induced lung damage as well as on abnormal glycoprotein component levels.

Abstract
Two major health crisis of today's world are antimicrobial drug resistance and type II diabetes. To tackle them, there is an immediate requirement for the development of new and safer drugs and the present work is one such quest for novel and efficient drug candidates. We have developed three trace metal coordination compounds tethered with a reduced salen ligand {H2(hpdbal)2-an} (L), namely, a manganese-salan complex, [MnII(H2O)2{(hpdbal)2-an}] (1), a nickel-salan complex, [NiII{(hpdbal)2-an}] (2) and a copper-salan complex, [CuII{(hpdbal)2-an}] (3). The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, vibrational spectroscopy, electronic spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance and electron-paramagnetic resonance techniques. The compounds were evaluated for antimicrobial activity against seven pathogens (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans) and antidiabetic activity by mimicking diabetic environment on the immortal human liver cancer cells, HepG2. Complexes 1 and 2 were additionally tested for their reactivity and stability in biological media mimic conditions. The nickel(II) salan complex (2) exhibited noteworthy antifungal activity against Candida albicans and the manganese(II) salan complex (1) induced increased glucose uptake by the insulin resistant cells. Both compounds were found to be stable when solution pH conditions were varied from 3 to 9. They exhibited strong affinity of binding towards a carrier protein, bovine serum albumin which was evaluated with the aid of multi-spectroscopic techniques.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to eliminate the era of superbugs through design and development of novel and sustainable drugs. Transition metal complexes can be one of the hopes for tackling drug resistant pathogens. In this view, we have developed a manganese complex appended with an ON donor ligand which has shown excellent activity against one of the prominent fungal species. The Mn (II) complex, [MnII(OH2)2(Hhpdbal-sbdt)2] (1) was synthesized using a Schiff base ligand derived from an azo aldehyde and S-benzyldithiocarbazate. The complex was characterized with the help of analytical techniques such as elemental analysis, FT-IR, EDAX, EPR and TGA. The solution behavior in physiological conditions and in biological media was preliminarily evaluated by studying the behavior of complex in varied pH conditions and in the presence of protein, BSA. The effect of the compound on few drug resistant pathogenic species of bacteria and fungi and on the uptake of glucose by insulin resistant cells was evaluated using whole cell inhibition assay and NBDG assay respectively. The study gave a noteworthy result with respect to the manganese compound's biological activity, with an inhibitory activity of 93% towards a fungi species, Cryptococcus neoformans and with a relatively good glucose uptake inducing capacity. The manganese complex, which maintains its stability over a wide range of pH conditions and interacts with serum protein, BSA in a facile manner can be an excellent drug candidate and eventually be added to the library of compounds being screened for in vivo activity studies.
