Abstract
Cyclometallated Pt(II) complexes possessing hydrophobic 2-phenylpyridine (ppy) ligands and hydrophilic acetonylacetone (acac) ligands have been investigated for their ability to detect amyloid fibrils via luminescence response. Using hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) as a model amyloid protein, Pt(II) complexes featuring benzanilide-substituted ppy ligands and ethylene glycol-functionalized acac ligands demonstrated enhanced luminescence in the presence of HEWL fibrils, whereas Pt(II) complexes lacking complementary hydrophobic/hydrophilic ligand sets displayed little to no emission enhancement. An amphiphilic Pt(II) complex incorporating a bis(ethylene glycol)-derivatized acac ligand was additionally found to trigger restructuring of HEWL fibrils into smaller spherical aggregates. Amphiphilic Pt(II) complexes were generally non-toxic to SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, and several complexes also exhibited enhanced luminescence in the presence of Aβ42 fibrils associated with Alzheimer's disease. This study demonstrates that easily prepared and robust (ppy)PtII(acac) complexes show promising reactivity toward amyloid fibrils and represent attractive molecular scaffolds for design of small-molecule probes targeting amyloid assemblies.

Abstract
The accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates is found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. Thus, numerous efforts have been made to develop chemical reagents capable of targeting Aβ peptides and controlling their aggregation. In particular, tunable coordination and photophysical properties of transition metal complexes, with variable oxidation and spin states on the metal centers, can be utilized to probe Aβ aggregates and alter their aggregation profiles. In this review, we illustrate some rational strategies for designing photoactivatable metal complexes as chemical sensors for Aβ peptides or modulators against their aggregation pathways, with some examples.

Abstract
A sensitive and selective strategy to identify insulin fibrils remains a challenge for researchers in amyloid protein research. Thus, it is critical to detect, in vitro, the species generated during amyloid aggregation, particularly the fibrillar species. Here we demonstrate that the luminescent complex cis-[Ru(phen)2(3,4Apy)2]2+ (RuApy; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; 3,4Apy = 3,4-diaminopyridine) is a rapid, low-cost alternative to in vitro detection of fibrillar insulin, using conventional optical techniques. The RuApy complex displays emission intensity enhancement at 655 nm when associated with insulin, which enables imaging of the conformational changes of the protein's self-aggregation. The complex shows high sensitivity to fibrillar insulin with a limit of detection of 0.85 μM and binding affinity of 12.40 ± 1.84 μM which is comparable to those of Thioflavin T and Congo red, with the advantage of minimizing background fluorescence, absorption of light by biomolecules, and light scattering from physiologic salts in the medium.

Abstract
Re(I) complexes have potential in biomedical sciences as imaging agents, diagnostics and therapeutics. Thus, it is crucial to understand how Re(I) complexes interact with carrier proteins, like serum albumins. Here, two neutral Re(I) complexes were used (fac-[Re(CO)3 (1,10-phenanthroline)L], in which L is either 4-cyanophenyltetrazolate (1) or 4-methoxycarbonylphenyltetrazole ester (2), to study the interactions with bovine serum albumin (BSA). Spectroscopic measurements, calculations of thermodynamic and Förster resonance energy transfer parameters, as well as molecular modelling, were performed to study differential binding between BSA and complex 1 and 2. Induced-fit docking combined with quantum-polarised ligand docking were employed in what is believed to be a first for a Re(I) complex as a ligand for BSA. Our findings provide a basis for other molecular interaction studies and suggest that subtle functional group alterations at the terminal region of the Re(I) complex have a significant impact on the ability of this class of compounds to interact with BSA.

Abstract
A key process in the development of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases is the aggregation of proteins to produce fibrillary aggregates with a cross β-sheet structure, amyloid. The development of reagents that can bind these aggregates with high affinity and selectivity has potential for early disease diagnosis. By linking two benzothiazole aniline (BTA) head groups with different length polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacers, fluorescent probes that bind amyloid fibrils with low nanomolar affinity have been obtained. Dissociation constants measured for interaction with Aβ, α-synuclein and tau fibrils show that the length of the linker determines binding affinity and selectivity. These compounds were successfully used to image α-synuclein aggregates in vitro and in the post-mortem brain tissue of patients with Parkinson's disease. The results demonstrate that multivalent ligands offer a powerful approach to obtain high affinity, selective reagents to bind the fibrillary aggregates that form in neurodegenerative disease. Multivalent ligands offer a powerful approach to obtain high affinity reagents to bind the aggregates that form in neurodegenerative disease. Selectivity for different proteins was achieved by using different linkers to connect the head groups.![]()

Abstract
Amyloid plaques generated from the accumulation of amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) fibrils in the brain is one of the main hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a most common neurodegenerative disorder. Aβ aggregation can produce neurotoxic oligomers and fibrils, which has been widely accepted as the causative factor in AD pathogenesis. Accordingly, both soluble oligomers and insoluble fibrils have been considered as diagnostic biomarkers for AD. Among the existing analytical methods, fluorometry using fluorescent probes has exhibited promising potential in quantitative detection and imaging of both soluble and insoluble Aβ species, providing a valuable approach for the diagnosis and drug development of AD. In this review, the most recent advances in the fluorescent probes for soluble or insoluble Aβ aggregates are discussed in terms of design strategy, probing mechanism, and potential applications. In the end, future research directions of fluorescent probes for Aβ species are also proposed.

Abstract
Neurotoxicity of amyloid beta (Aβ) species generated in early stages of aggregation has been associated with development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Consequently, the field of action of compounds that can identify and inhibit the formation of these species has enlarged considerably. This study investigates the effect and influence of the luminescent, water soluble metal complex cis-[Ru(phen)2(3,4Apy)2]2+ (RuApy, 3,4Apy = 3,4-diaminopyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) on the aggregation process and toxicity of Aβ1-40 and its Aβ1-28, Aβ11-22 and Aβ29-40 fragments since their early stages. The absence of correlation between the conformations generated by Aβ fragments and the full length 1-40 peptide during aggregation and the absence of toxicity of Aβ fragments to PC12 cells in all stages of aggregation indicated that the aggregation pathway and toxicity found to the full-length Aβ1-40 depends on specific interactions between the three fragments. The toxicity of Aβ1-40 was dependent on the aggregation step investigated: species generated at the beginning (15 min) of aggregation were toxic, whereas mature (120 min) fibrils were not. The RuApy complex is not toxic to PC12 cells up to 60 μM, and does not interfere with the aggregation pathway of the Aβ fragments, but interferes with the aggregation of Aβ1-40 and protects the PC12 cells, maintaining 100% of cell viability against the toxicity of Aβ1-40 species generated in early stages of aggregation.

Abstract
Switchable luminescent bioprobes whose emission can be turned on as a function of specific enzymatic activity are emerging as important tools in chemical biology. We report a promising platform for the development of label-free and continuous enzymatic assays in high-throughput mode based on the reversible solvent-induced self-assembly of a neutral dinuclear Pt(II) complex. To demonstrate the utility of this strategy, the switchable luminescence of a dinuclear Pt(II) complex was utilized in developing an experimentally simple, fast (10 min), low cost, and label-free turn-on luminescence assay for the endonuclease enzyme DNAse I. The complex displays a near-IR (NIR) aggregation-induced emission at 785 nm in aqueous solution that is completely quenched upon binding to G-quadruplex DNA from the human c-myc oncogene. Luminescence is restored upon DNA degradation elicited by exposure to DNAse I. Correlation between near-IR luminescence intensity and DNAse I concentration in human serum samples allows for fast and label-free detection of DNAse I down to 0.002 U/mL. The Pt(II) complex/DNA assembly is also effective for identification of DNAse I inhibitors, and assays can be performed in multiwell plates compatible with high-throughput screening. The combination of sensitivity, speed, convenience, and cost render this method superior to all other reported luminescence-based DNAse I assays. The versatile response of the Pt(II) complex to DNA structures promises broad potential applications in developing real-time and label-free assays for other nucleases as well as enzymes that regulate DNA topology.

Thirteen novel benzothiazole derivatives incorporating glycine, methionine, alanine, and phenylalanine were synthesised by facile acylation reactions through benzotriazole or DCC mediated reactions and their structures were identified by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and FT-IR spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. The carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activity of the new compounds was assessed against four human (h) isoforms, hCA I, hCA II, hCA V, and hCA XIII. Some of the synthesised compounds showed good in vitro carbonic anhydrase inhibitory properties, with inhibition constants in the micromolar level. The new amino acid benzothiazole conjugates found to be more effective against hCA V and hCA II inhibition. In vitro antioxidant activities of the novel compounds were determined by DPPH method. Most of the synthesised compounds showed moderate to low antioxidant activities compared to the control antioxidant compounds (BHA and α-tocopherol).

Abstract
Herein, we report the DNA interaction studies of rhenium(I) and -(V) compounds with Schiff base chelates encompassing biologically relevant moieties. More specifically, the DNA interaction capabilities of these rhenium complexes were probed using Gel Electrophoresis and Calf Thymus-DNA titrations monitored by temperature-controlled electronic spectroscopy. The DNA binding modes of the metal compounds were corroborated by molecular docking simulations. In addition, the synthesis and characterization of a novel facial tricarbonyl rhenium(I) compound, fac-[Re(chrs)(CO)3Br], (chrs = {3-{[(2-hydroxyphenyl)imino]methyl}-4H-chromen-4-one) are reported.
