Abstract
To obtain biologically active species, a series of decavanadates (Hpbg)4[H2V10O28]·6H2O (1) (Htbg)4[H2V10O28]·6H2O; (2) (Hgnd)2(Hgnu)4[V10O28]; (3) (Hgnu)6[V10O28]·2H2O; and (4) (pbg = 1-phenyl biguanide, tbg = 1-(o-tolyl)biguanide, gnd = guanidine, and gnu = guanylurea) were synthesized and characterized by several spectroscopic techniques (IR, UV-Vis, and EPR) as well as by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound (1) crystallizes in space group P-1 while (3) and (4) adopt the same centrosymmetric space group P21/n. The unusual signal identified by EPR spectroscopy was assigned to a charge-transfer π(O)→d(V) process. Both stability in solution and reactivity towards reactive oxygen species (O2- and OH·) were screened through EPR signal modification. All compounds inhibited the development of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis bacterial strains in a planktonic state at a micromolar level, the most active being compound (3). However, the experiments conducted at a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) indicated that the compounds do not disrupt the biofilm produced by these bacterial strains. The cytotoxicity assayed against A375 human melanoma cells and BJ human fibroblasts by testing the viability, lactate dehydrogenase, and nitric oxide levels indicated compound (1) as the most active in tumor cells.

Abstract
The synthesis and theoretical-experimental characterization of a novel diprotanated decavanadate is presented here due to our search for novel anticancer metallodrugs. Tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPMA), which is also known to have anticancer activity in osteosarcoma cell lines, was introduced as a possible cationic species that could act as a counterpart for the decavanadate anion. However, the isolated compound contains the previously reported vanadium (V) dioxido-tpma moieties, and the decavanadate anion appears to be diprotonated. The structural characterization of the compound was performed by infrared spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In addition, DFT calculations were used to analyze the reactive sites involved in the donor-acceptor interactions from the molecular electrostatic potential maps. The level of theory mPW1PW91/6–31G(d)-LANL2DZ and ECP = LANL2DZ for the V atom was used. These insights about the compounds’ main interactions were supported by analyzing the noncovalent interactions utilizing the AIM and Hirshfeld surfaces approach. Molecular docking studies with small RNA fragments were used to assess the hypothesis that decavanadate’s anticancer activity could be attributed to its interaction with lncRNA molecules. Thus, a combination of three potentially beneficial components could be evaluated in various cancer cell lines.

Abstract
The interest in decavanadate anions has increased in recent decades, since these clusters show interesting applications as varied as sensors, batteries, catalysts, or new drugs in medicine. Due to the capacity of the interaction of decavanadate with a variety of biological molecules because of its high negative charge and oxygen-rich surface, this cluster is being widely studied both in vitro and in vivo as a treatment for several global health problems such as diabetes mellitus, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease. Here, we report a new decavanadate compound with organic molecules synthesized in an aqueous solution and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The decavanadate anion was combined with 2-aminopyrimidine to form the compound [2-ampymH]6[V10O28]·5H2O (1). In the crystal lattice, organic molecules are stacked by π–π interactions, with a centroid-to-centroid distance similar to that shown in DNA or RNA molecules. Furthermore, computational DFT calculations of Compound 1 corroborate the hydrogen bond interaction between pyrimidine molecules and decavanadate anions, as well as the π–π stacking interactions between the central pyrimidine molecules. Finally, docking studies with test RNA molecules indicate that they could serve as other potential targets for the anticancer activity of decavanadate anion.

Abstract
Due to the inherent geometrical interdependencies of nucleic acid structures, the ability to engineer biosensors that rely on the specific interactions of these compounds is of considerable importance. Additionally, sensing or screening in a label-free fashion is a capability of these structures that can be readily achieved by exploiting the fluorescent component. In this work, the [AdH]6[V10O28].4(H2O) (1) supramolecular structure is introduced using adenine and decavanadate moieties that allow probing of selectivity to specific nucleic acid binding events by optical changes. The structure of (1) is an alternating organic–inorganic hybrid architecture of cationic adeninium (AdH+) ribbons and anionic decavanadate (DV)–water sheets. The luminescent screening and anticancer activity of compound (1) on the two human mammary carcinoma cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 were investigated using fluorescent microscopy and MTT assays, respectively. It was found that compound (1) is cell permeable with no toxicity below 12.5 µM concentration and moderate cytotoxicity at concentrations as high as 200 µM in human breast cancer cell lines, making it a useful tool to study the cell nucleus in real time.

Abstract
51V NMR spectroscopy is used to document, using speciation analysis, that one oxometalate is a more potent growth inhibitor of two Mycobacterial strains than other oxovanadates, thus demonstrating selectivity in its interaction with cells. Historically, oxometalates have had many applications in biological and medical studies, including study of the phase-problem in X-ray crystallography of the ribosome. The effect of different vanadate salts on the growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis (M. smeg) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) was investigated, and speciation was found to be critical for the observed growth inhibition. Specifically, the large orange-colored sodium decavanadate (V10O 28 6 - ) anion was found to be a stronger inhibitor of growth of two mycobacterial species than the colorless oxovanadate prepared from sodium metavanadate. The vanadium(V) speciation in the growth media and conversion among species under growth conditions was monitored using 51V NMR spectroscopy and speciation calculations. The findings presented in this work is particularly important in considering the many applications of polyoxometalates in biological and medical studies, such as the investigation of the phase-problem in X-ray crystallography for the ribosome. The findings presented in this work investigate the interactions of oxometalates with other biological systems.

Decavanadate Salts of Cytosine and Metformin: A Combined Experimental-Theoretical Study of Potential Metallodrugs Against Diabetes and Cancer. Front Chem 2018; 6:402.

Abstract
Cytosine, a DNA and RNA building-block, and Metformin, the most widely prescribed drug for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes mellitus were made to react separately with ammonium or sodium metavanadates in acidic aqueous solutions to obtain two polyoxovanadate salts with a 6:1 ratio of cation-anion. Thus, compounds [HCyt]6[V10O28]·4H2O, 1 and [HMetf]6[V10O28]·6H2O, 2 (where HCyt = Cytosinium cation, [C4H6N3O]+ and HMetf = Metforminium cation, [C4H12N5]+) were obtained and characterized by elemental analysis, single crystal X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy (IR and Raman), solution 51V-NMR, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA-DTGA), as well as, theoretical methods. Both compounds crystallized in P1 ¯ space group with Z' = 1/2, where the anionic charge of the centrosymmetric ion [V10O28]6- is balanced by six Cytosinium and six Metforminium counterions, respectively. Compound 1 is stabilized by π-π stacking interactions coming from the aromatic rings of HCyt cations, as denoted by close contacts of 3.63 Å. On the other hand, guanidinium moieties from the non-planar HMetf in Compound 2 interact with decavanadate μ2-O atoms via N-H···O hydrogen bonds. The vibrational spectroscopic data of both IR and Raman spectra show that the dominant bands in the 1000-450 cm-1 range are due to the symmetric and asymmetric ν(V-O) vibrational modes. In solution, 51V-NMR experiments of both compounds show that polyoxovanadate species are progressively transformed into the monomeric, dimeric and tetrameric oxovanadates. The thermal stability behavior suggests a similar molecular mechanism regarding the loss of water molecules and the decomposition of the organic counterions. Yet, no changes were observed in the TGA range of 540-580°C due to the stability of the [V10O28]6- fragment. Dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT-D) calculations were carried out to model the compounds in aqueous phase using a polarized continuum model calculation. Optimized structures were obtained and the main non-covalent interactions were characterized. Biological activities of these compounds are also under investigation. The combination of two therapeutic agents opens up a window toward the generation of potential metalopharmaceuticals with new and exciting pharmacological properties.

Abstract
This review covers recent advances in the understanding of decavanadate toxicology and pharmacological applications. Toxicological in vivo studies point out that V10 induces several changes in several oxidative stress parameters, different from the ones observed for vanadate (V1). In in vitro studies with mitochondria, a particularly potent V10 effect, in comparison with V1, was observed in the mitochondrial depolarization (IC50 = 40 nM) and oxygen consumption (99 nM). It is suggested that mitochondrial membrane depolarization is a key event in decavanadate induction of necrotic cardiomyocytes death. Furthermore, only decavanadate species and not V1 potently inhibited myosin ATPase activity stimulated by actin (IC50 = 0.75 μM) whereas exhibiting lower inhibition activities for Ca(2+)-ATPase activity (15 μM) and actin polymerization (17 μM). Because both calcium pump and actin decavanadate interactions lead to its stabilization, it is likely that V10 interacts at specific locations with these proteins that protect against hydrolysis but, on the other hand, it may induce V10 reduction to oxidovanadium(IV). Putting it all together, it is suggested that the pharmacological applications of V10 species and compounds whose mechanism of action is still to be clarified might involve besides V10 and V1 also vanadium(IV) species.

Abstract
The reaction of sodium orthovanadate with carnitine hydrochloride molecule results in the precipitation of decavanadate compound of carnitine whereas the reaction of metallic molybdenum with hydrogen peroxide and carnitine results in the peroxo-molybdenum complex of carnitine. The decavanadate compound as well as the molybdenum complex of carnitine have been characterized by means of elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectra, (1)H NMR, 2D-COSY-NMR (=correlation spectroscopy) and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA). In addition decavanadate compound of carnitine was fully characterized by X-ray crystallography. The analytical data were in good agreement with the empirical formulae of both, decavanadate compound and molybdenum complex. The two compounds were also evaluated for cell toxicity and their anticancer activity by the MTT(3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide)-based assay method, using primary cells and tumor cell lines of both human and murine origins and the results show that compound 1 shows an increased biological activity in comparison with compound 2. Moreover using confocal microscopy and antibodies against cleaved caspase 3 we further analyzed the cell toxicity and we conclude that the apoptotic pathway is triggered efficiently with tumor specificity by compound 1 and not by compound 2.
