Abstract
Cryogels are polymeric materials with a sponge-like microstructure and have attracted significant attention in recent decades. Research has focused on their composition, fabrication techniques, characterization methods as well as potential or existing fields of applications. The use of functional precursors or functionalizing ligands enables the preparation of cryogels with desired properties such as biocompatibility or responsivity. They can also exhibit adsorptive properties or can be used for catalytical purposes. Although a very brief overview about several functional (macro-)monomers and functionalizing ligands has been provided by previous reviewers for certain cryogel applications, so far there has been no particular focus on the evaluation of the functionalization success and the characterization methods used. This review will provide a comprehensive overview of different characterization methods most recently used for the evaluation of cryogel functionalization. Furthermore, new functional (macro-)monomers and subsequent cryogel functionalization strategies are discussed, based on synthetic polymers, biopolymers and a combination of both. This review highlights the importance of the functionalization aspect in cryogel research in order to produce materials with tailored properties for certain applications.

Abstract
The increasing demand for highly pure biopharmaceuticals has put significant pressure on the biotechnological industry to innovate in production and purification processes. Nucleic acid purification, crucial for gene therapy and vaccine production, presents challenges due to the unique physical and chemical properties of these molecules. Meeting regulatory standards necessitates large quantities of biotherapeutic agents of high purity. While conventional chromatography offers versatility and efficiency, it suffers from drawbacks like low flow rates and binding capacity, as well as high mass transfer resistance. Recent advancements in continuous beds, including monoliths and cryogel-based systems, have emerged as promising solutions to overcome these limitations. This review explores and evaluates the latest progress in chromatography utilizing monolithic and cryogenic supports for nucleic acid purification.

Immobilization of controlled Pu:Am ratio on actinide-specific affinity monolith support developed in capillary and coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:191. [PMID: 38467910 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06274-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this work was to develop an actinide-specific monolithic support in capillary designed to immobilize precise Pu:Am ratios and its coupling to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for immobilized metal affinity chromatography applications. This format offers many advantages, such as reducing the sample amount and waste production, which are of prime importance when dealing with highly active radioelements. Four organic phosphorylated-based monoliths were synthesized in situ through UV photo-polymerization in capillary and characterized. The capillary coupling to ICP-MS was set up in conventional laboratory using Th and Sm as chemical analogues of Pu and Am. A dedicated method was developed to quantify online Th and Sm amounts immobilized on the monolithic capillaries, allowing to select the best monolith candidate poly(BMEP-co-EDMA)adp. By precisely adjusting the elemental composition in the loading solutions and applying the developed quantification method, the controlled immobilization of several Th:Sm molar ratios onto the monolith was successful. Finally, the capillary ICP-MS coupling was transposed in a glove box and by applying the strategy developed to design the monolithic support using Th and Sm, the immobilization of a 10.5 ± 0.2 (RSD = 2.3%, n = 3) Pu:Am molar ratio reflecting Pu ageing over 48 years was achieved in a controlled manner on poly(BMEP-co-EDMA)adp. Hence, the new affinity capillary monolithic support was validated, with only hundred nanograms or less of engaged radioelements and can be further exploited to precisely determine differential interactions of Pu and Am with targeted biomolecules in order to better anticipate the effect of Am on Pu biodistribution.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is one of the most concerning elements due to its high exposure risks to organisms and ecosystems. The interaction between arsenicals and proteins plays a pivotal role in inducing their biological effects on living systems, e.g., arsenicosis. In this review article, the recent advances in analytical techniques and methods of As-binding proteomes were well summarized and discussed, including chromatographic separation and purification, biotin-streptavidin pull-down probes, in situ imaging using novel fluorescent probes, and protein identification. These analytical technologies could provide a growing body of knowledge regarding the composition, level, and distribution of As-binding proteomes in both cells and biological samples, even at the organellar level. The perspectives on analysis of As-binding proteomes are also proposed, e.g., isolation and identification of minor proteins, in vivo targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies, and spatial As-binding proteomics. The application and development of sensitive, accurate, and high-throughput methodologies of As-binding proteomics would enable us to address the key molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse health effects of arsenicals.

Abstract
For decades now, the separation of chiral enantiomers of drugs has been gaining the interest and attention of researchers. In 1991, the first guidelines for development of chiral drugs were firstly released by the US-FDA. Since then, the development in chromatographic enantioseparation tools has been fast and variable, aiming at creating a suitable environment where the physically and chemically identical enantiomers can be separated. Among those tools, the immobilization of chiral selectors (CS) on different stationary phases and the chiral mobile phase additives (CMPA) which have been progressed and studied extensively. This review article highlights the major advances in immobilization of CS together with their different recognition mechanisms as well as CMPA as a cheaper and successful alternative for chiral stationary phases. Moreover, the role of molecular modeling tool as a pre-step in the choice of CS for evaluating possible interactions with different ligands has been pointed up. Illustrations of reported methods and updates for immobilized CS and CMPA have been included.

Macroporous Epoxy-Based Monoliths Functionalized with Anti-CD63 Nanobodies for Effective Isolation of Extracellular Vesicles in Urine. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076131. [PMID: 37047104 PMCID: PMC10094263 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have enormous potential for the implementation of liquid biopsy and as effective drug delivery means, but the fulfilment of these expectations requires overcoming at least two bottlenecks relative to their purification, namely the finalization of reliable and affordable protocols for: (i) EV sub-population selective isolation and (ii) the scalability of their production/isolation from complex biological fluids. In this work, we demonstrated that these objectives can be achieved by a conceptually new affinity chromatography platform composed of a macroporous epoxy monolith matrix functionalized with anti-CD63 nanobodies with afflux of samples and buffers regulated through a pump. Such a system successfully captured and released integral EVs from urine samples and showed negligible unspecific binding for circulating proteins. Additionally, size discrimination of eluted EVs was achieved by different elution approaches (competitive versus pH-dependent). The physical characteristics of monolith material and the inexpensive production of recombinant nanobodies make scaling-up the capture unit feasible and affordable. Additionally, the availability of nanobodies for further specific EV biomarkers will allow for the preparation of monolithic affinity filters selective for different EV subclasses.

Abstract
The rapid development of proteomics technology in the past decades has led to further human understanding of tumor research, and in some ways, the technology plays a very important supporting role in the early detection of tumors. Human serum has been shown to contain a variety of proteins closely related to life activities, and the dynamic change in proteins can often reflect the physiological and pathological conditions of the body. Serum has the advantage of easy extraction, so the application of proteomics technology in serum has become a hot spot and frontier area for the study of malignant tumors. However, there are still many difficulties in the standardized use of proteomic technologies, which inevitably limit the clinical application of proteomic technologies due to the heterogeneity of human proteins leading to incomplete whole proteome populations, in addition to most serum protein markers being now not highly specific in aiding the early detection of tumors. Nevertheless, further development of proteomics technologies will greatly increase our understanding of tumor biology and help discover more new tumor biomarkers with specificity that will enable medical technology.

J Chromatogr A 2023; 1687:463670. [PMID: 36463648 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2022.463670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
In affinity chromatography, non-specific interactions between the ligands and the affinity column may affect the results, leading to misinterpretations during the investigation of protein-ligand interactions (detection of false positives in ligand screening, lack of specificity in purification). Such non-specific interactions may arise both from the underlying support or from the target protein itself. If the second ones are protein-dependent (and cannot be studied in a general framework), the first ones occur in the same way regardless of the immobilized target. We propose a methodology to identify the origin of such non-specific interactions with the underlying material of the affinity column. This methodology relies on the systematic investigation of the retention behavior of a set of 41 low-molecular weight compounds covering a wide chemical space (net charge, log D, functionality). We first demonstrate that the main source of non-specific interactions on the most commonly used GMA-co-EDMA monolith comes from hydrophobic effects. To reduce such non-specific interactions, we developed a new hydrophilic glycidyl methacrylate-based monolith by replacing the EDMA crosslinker by the more hydrophilic NN' Methylenebisacrylamide (MBA). Optimization of the synthesis parameters (monomer content, initiation type, temperature) has focused on the reduction of non-specific interaction with the monolithic support while maximizing the amount of protein that can be grafted onto the monolith at the issue of its synthesis. The retention data of the 41 test solutes on the new poly(GMA-co-MBA) monolith shows a drastic reduction of non-specific interactions except for cationic compounds. The particular behavior of cationic compounds is due to their electrostatic interactions with carboxylic groups resulting from the partial acidic hydrolysis of amide groups of MBA during the epoxide ring opening step. So, the ring opening step in acidic media was replaced by a hot water treatment to avoid side reaction on MBA. The new monolith poly(GMA-co-MBA) not only has improved hydrophilic surface properties but also a higher protein density (16 ± 0.8 pmol cm-1 instead of 8 ± 0.3 pmol cm-1). To highlight the benefits of this new hydrophilic monolith for affinity chromatographic studies, frontal affinity chromatography experiments were conducted on these monoliths grafted with con A.

Abstract
In this study, composite monoliths with porous structures were prepared using quaternized chitosan and diatom earth for protein separation. Quaternized chitosan (N-[(2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammonium)propyl] chitosan chloride) dissolved in water was mixed with diatom earth and crosslinked with glutaraldehyde under low-temperature conditions to form a cryogel. Interconnected porous monoliths were obtained after removing ice crystals from the cryogel. The monoliths adsorbed bovine serum albumin selectively from the solution mixture of bovine serum albumin and bovine ɤ-globulin, and bovine ɤ-globulin was recovered in the flow-through fraction. The adsorption selectivity was enhanced by changing the solution pH from 6.8 to 5.5. The adsorption of bovine serum albumin by the monolith was replicated at least five times following its washing with a buffer containing 400 mM NaCl and subsequent regeneration with a 10 mM acetate buffer. The composited monolith is a promising adsorbent for the removal of acidic proteins, such as serum albumin contamination in neutral proteins, for example, ɤ-globulins, in bioproduction processes.

Abstract
The formation of inclusion bodies (IBs) during expression of recombinant therapeutic proteins using E. coli is a significant hurdle in producing high-quality, safe, and efficacious medicines. The improved understanding of the structure-function relationship of the IBs has resulted in the development of novel biotechnologies that have streamlined the isolation, solubilization, refolding, and purification of the active functional proteins from the bacterial IBs. Together, this overall effort promises to radically improve the scope of experimental biology of therapeutic protein production and expand new prospects in IBs usage. Notably, the IBs are increasingly used for applications in more pristine areas such as drug delivery and material sciences. In this review, we intend to provide a comprehensive picture of the bio-processing of bacterial IBs, including assessing critical gaps that still need to be addressed and potential solutions to overcome them. We expect this review to be a useful resource for those working in the area of protein refolding and therapeutic protein production.

Protein Attachment Mechanism for Improved Functionalization of Affinity Monolith Chromatography (AMC). Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27144496.

Abstract
This work aims at understanding the attachment mechanisms and stability of proteins on a chromatography medium to develop more efficient functionalization methodologies, which can be exploited in affinity chromatography. In particular, the study was focused on the understanding of the attachment mechanisms of bovine serum albumin (BSA), used as a ligand model, and protein G on novel amine-modified alumina monoliths as a stationary phase. Protein G was used to develop a column for antibody purification. The results showed that, at lower protein concentrations (i.e., 0.5 to 1.0 mg·mL−1), protein attachment follows a 1st-order kinetics compatible with the presence of covalent binding between the monolith and the protein. At higher protein concentrations (i.e., up to 10 mg·mL−1), the data preferably fit a 2nd-order kinetics. Such a change reflects a different mechanism in the protein attachment which, at higher concentrations, seems to be governed by physical adsorption resulting in a multilayered protein formation, due to the presence of ligand aggregates. The threshold condition for the prevalence of physical adsorption of BSA was found at a concentration higher than 1.0 mg·mL−1. Based on this result, protein concentrations of 0.7 and 1.0 mg·mL−1 were used for the functionalization of monoliths with protein G, allowing a maximum attachment of 1.43 mg of protein G/g of monolith. This column was then used for IgG binding–elution experiments, which resulted in an antibody attachment of 73.5% and, subsequently, elution of 86%, in acidic conditions. This proved the potential of the amine-functionalized monoliths for application in affinity chromatography.

Abstract
Biomedicine is developing rapidly in the 21st century. Among them, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of peptide biomarkers is of considerable importance for the diagnosis and therapy of diseases and the quality evaluation of drugs and food. The identification and quantitative analysis of peptides have been going on for decades. Traditionally, immunoassays or biological assays are generally used to quantify peptides in biological matrices. However, the selectivity and sensitivity of these methods cannot meet the requirements of the application. The separation and analysis technique of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) supplies a reliable alternative. In contrast to immunoassays, LC-MS methods are capable of providing the analytical prowess necessary to satisfy the demands of peptide biomarker research in the life sciences arena. This review article provides a historical account of the in-roads made by LC-MS technology for the detection of peptide biomarkers in the past 10 years, with the focus on the qualification/quantification developments and their applications.

Abstract
An approach for profiling protein-protein interactions by using affinity purification with capillary monolithic immobilized metal affinity chromatography column (cm-IMAC) in combination with label free quantitative proteomics was described in the present work. The cm-IMAC columns were prepared in a single step by copolymerization of the function monomer, namely (S)-2,2'-((1-carboxy-5-(pent‑4-enamido)pentyl)azanediyl)diacetic acid which provide a nitrilotriacetate (NTA) moiety to form chelated complexation with Ni (II) ions, inside the fused silica capillaries. The His6-tagged bait protein can be easily immobilized on the cm-IMAC columns through the formation of chelating complexation with the NTA-Ni (II) functional groups of the matrix. The cm-IMAC columns were used to explore protein-protein interactions (PPIs) on a proteomic scale when combined with label-free proteomics. A known interaction pair of proteins, namely NDP52 (amino acid sequence 10-126) and NAP1 (33-75) as well as Bcl-2 family proteins were used for proof of concept. New interactors of Bcl-XL were identified and validated by co-immunoprecipitation.

Abstract
Antibodies have become an important class of biological products in cancer treatments such as radiotherapy. The growing therapeutic applications have driven a demand for high-purity antibodies. Affinity chromatography with a high affinity and specificity has always been utilized to separate antibodies from complex mixtures. Quality chromatographic components (matrices and affinity ligands) have either been found or generated to increase the purity and yield of antibodies. More importantly, some matrices (mainly particles) and affinity ligands (including design protocols) for antibody purification can act as radiosensitizers or carriers for therapeutic radionuclides (or for radiosensitizers) either directly or indirectly to improve the therapeutic efficiency of radiotherapy. This paper provides a brief overview on the matrices and ligands used in affinity chromatography that are involved in antibody purification and emphasizes their applications in radiotherapy to enrich potential approaches for improving the efficacy of radiotherapy.

Abstract
Frontal affinity chromatography is a powerful, underappreciated technique for the qualitative (screening) and quantitative (Kd determination) evaluation of biological interactions. Its development has been previously hampered by its sample consumption, limited throughput, and lack of dedicated instrumentation especially at a miniaturized scale. This work describes two original experimental devices allowing nano-frontal affinity chromatography titrations (nano-FAC) to be automatically implemented in the time-saving staircase mode. The first nano-FAC system utilizes a capillary electrophoresis device (7100 CE Agilent system) in the pressurization mode with in situ UV detection. The second nano-FAC experimental setup implements a nano-LC device (Ultimate 3000 Thermo) modified with a 10-port valve equipped with two superloops (loop volume, 5 μL) operating alternatively and automatically in a single run. The benefits and drawbacks of each approach are exemplified using two model protein-ligand interactions (concanavalin A-mannose and concanavalin A-glucose). The two methods result in concordant dissociation constants (Kd) and number of active site (Bact) values, obtained in a fully automated manner, with low sample consumption and good throughput.
