Abstract
Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide. It was estimated that 90 % of cancer-related deaths were attributable to the development of multi-drug resistance (MDR) during chemotherapy, which results in ineffective chemotherapy. Hydrophobic natural products plays a pivotal role in the field of cancer therapy, with the potential to reverse MDR in tumor cells, thereby enhancing the efficacy of tumor therapy. However, their targeted delivery is considered a major hurdle in their application. The advent of numerous approaches for encapsulating bioactive ingredients in the nanodelivery systems has improved the stability and targeted delivery of these biomolecules. The manuscript comprehensively analyses the nanodelivery systems of bioactive compounds with potential cancer therapy applications, including liposomes, emulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles (NPs), and polymeric NPs. Then, the advantages and disadvantages of various nanoagents in the treatment of various cancer types are critically discussed. Further, the application of multiple-compbine delivery methods to overcome the limitations of single-delivery have need critically analyzed, which thus could help in the designing nanodrug delivery systems for bioactive compounds in clinical settings. Therefore, the review is timely and important for development of efficient nanodelivery systems involving hydrophobic natural products to improve pharmacokinetic properties for effective cancer treatment.

Abstract
Au(III) bis(pyrrolide-imine) chelates are emerging as a class of versatile, efficacious metallodrug candidates. Here, we synthesised two enantiopure chiral ligands H2L1 and H2L2 (tetradentate cyclohexane-1,2-diamine-bridged bis(pyrrole-imine) derivatives). Metallation of the ligands with Au(III) afforded the chiral cationic complexes AuL1 and AuL2. The in vitro cytotoxicities of AuL1 and AuL2 determined in the NCI-60 single-dose drug screen were 56.5% and 89.1%, respectively. AuL1 was subsequently selected for a five-dose NCI-60 screen, attaining GI50, IC50, and LC50 values of 4.7, 9.3 and 39.8 μM, respectively. Hierarchical cluster analysis of the NCI-60 data indicated that the profile for AuL1 was similar to that of vinblastine sulfate, a microtubule-targeting vinca alkaloid. Reactions of AuL1 with glutathione (GSH) in vitro confirmed its susceptibility to reduction, Au(III) → Au(I), by intracellular thiols. Because human serum albumin (HSA) is responsible for transporting clinically deployed and investigational drugs, we studied the uptake of AuL1 and AuL2 by HSA to delineate how chirality impacts their protein-binding affinity. Steady-state fluorescence quenching data acquired on the native protein and data from site-specific probes showed that the compounds bind at sites close enough to Trp-214 (subdomain IIA) of HSA to quench the fluorophore. The bimolecular quenching rate constants, Kq, were ca. 102 times higher than the maximum diffusion-controlled collision constant of a biomolecule in water (1010 M-1 s-1), confirming that static fluorescence quenching was the dominant mechanism. The Stern-Volmer constants, KSV, were ∼104 M-1 at 37 °C, while the affinity constants, Ka (37 °C), measured ∼2.1 × 104 M-1 (AuL1) and ∼1.2 × 104 M-1 (AuL2) for enthalpy-driven ligand uptake targeting Sudlow's site I. Although far- and near-UV CD spectroscopy indicated that both complexes minimally perturb the secondary and tertiary structure of HSA, substantial shifts in the CD spectra were recorded for both protein-bound ligands. This study highlights the role of chirality in determining the cytotoxicity profiles and protein binding behaviour of enantiomeric Au(III) chelates.

Abstract
The preparation of nanoparticles (NPs) based on hemoglobin (Hb) with a fully biocompatible methodology is presented. The spontaneous formation of electrostatic complexes of Hb with chondroitin sulfate (CS) at pH 4 in the polysaccharide/protein mass ratio regime where charge neutrality is met leads to spherical nanostructures with monomodal hydrodynamic radii distribution in the range of 50-100 nm. The integrity of the electrostatic complexes is disturbed at pH 7 as the net electric charge of Hb is very low. Treating the NPs at mildly elevated temperature stabilizes them against the pH increase taking advantage of Hb's ability of unfolding and self-associating upon thermal treatment. The NPs surface charge is pH-tunable and changes from positive to strongly negative upon pH increase to 7 proving the presence of negative surface patches of Hb and CS segments in their exterior. The α-helix content of Hb does not change significantly by thermal treatment. The NPs are found to bind the bioactive compounds curcumin and β-carotene and are stable in solutions with high salt content. This investigation introduces a straightforward method to formulate Hb in NPs with possibilities in the nanodelivery of nutrients and drugs.

Abstract
Diacetylcurcumin as a derivative of curcumin is a strong nitric oxide (NO) and O2-.anion scavenger. One strategy to improve stability of curcumin and its derivatives is complexation with metal. In this study, the binding interactions of gallium diacetylcurcumin (Ga(DAC)3), indium diacetylcurcumin (In(DAC)3), and vanadyl diacetylcurcumin (VO(DAC)2) with hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) have been investigated. The results of fluorescence quenching analyses revealed that In(DAC)3 and VO(DAC)2 have higher binding affinities than Ga(DAC)3 towards HEWL. The interactions of these metal complexes were not accompanied by considerable conformational changes in the tertiary structure of HEWL. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of these complexes on the amyloid fibrillation of HEWL were confirmed by the thioflavin T fluorescence assays. The kinetic curves of the fibrillation process illustrated that VO(DAC)2 has the highest inhibitory activity and In(DAC)3 has a significant delaying effect on the formation of amyloid fibrils of HEWL.

Abstract
Three bis(pyrrolide-imine) Pt(II) chelates were synthesised and characterized with different bridging alkyl groups, specifically 2-hydroxypropyl (1), 2,2-dimethylpropyl (2), and 1,2-(S,S)-(+)-cyclohexyl (3). Novel compounds 1 and 2 were analysed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (space group P1̄). The asymmetric unit of 1 comprises three independent molecules linked by hydrogen bonds involving the OH groups, forming a trimeric supramolecular structure. The Pt(II) chelates were reacted with human serum albumin (HSA) to investigate how the ligand bound to the Pt(II) ion influences the compound's affinity for HSA. Fluorescence quenching data obtained for native HSA and HSA bound to site-specific probes (warfarin, subdomain IIA; ibuprofen, subdomain IIIA) indicated that the three Pt(II) chelates bind close enough (within ∼30 Å) to Trp-214 to quench its intrinsic fluorescence. The bimolecular quenching constant (kq) was 103-104 -fold higher than the maximum diffusion-controlled collision constant in water (1010 M s-1) at 310 K, while the affinity constants, Ka, ranged from ∼5 × 103 to ∼5 × 105 at 310 K, and followed the order 1 > 3 > 2. The reactions of 1 and 3 with HSA were enthalpically driven, while that for 2 was entropically driven. Macromolecular docking simulations (Glide XP) and binding site specificity assays employing site-specific probes and UV-vis CD spectroscopy indicated that 1 and 2 target Sudlow's site II in subdomain IIIA, minimally perturbing the tertiary structure of the protein. Well-resolved induced CD signals from 1 and 2 bound to HSA in subdomain IIIA were adequately simulated by hybrid QM:MM TD-DFT methods. We conclude that the structure of the bis(pyrrolide-imine) Pt(II) chelate measurably affects its uptake by HSA without detectable decomposition or demetallation. Such compounds could thus serve as metallodrug candidates capable of utilising an HSA-mediated cellular uptake pathway.

Abstract
This article reports the interaction of rifampicin, one of the important antituberculosis drugs, with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA). Herein, we have monitored the fluorescence properties of tryptophan (Trp) residue in BSA to understand the interactions between protein and rifampicin. Fluorescence intensity of BSA was quenched tremendously upon interacting with the drug. Using steady state and time-resolved spectroscopic tools the static and dynamic nature of quenching have been characterised. Time correlated single photon counting technique confirmed that out of two lifetime components ∼6.2 ns and ∼2.8 ns of BSA, the rifampicin has affected only the shorter lifetime component a lot that was assigned to Trp-213 residue. Hence, it was thought that the drug must have been located near to the amino acid residue. Molecular docking studies have revealed the structural information of drug-protein complex which supported the above conjecture, confirming the nearest tryptophan as Trp-213 to the complexing rifampicin molecule.

Abstract
Quinine (Qi) is a well-known drug used in malaria therapy; it is also a potential anti-arrhythmic drug used in the treatment of calf cramps, rheumatoid arthritis, colds, and photodermatitis. Moreover, it is used in the food industry for the production of tonics. This study aimed to analyze the interaction between quinine and a transporting protein—human serum albumin (HSA)—as well as the influence of Qi on both protein reduction and antioxidant potential. It was found that Qi (via spectrofluorometric measurements and circular dichroism spectroscopy) binds to HSA with a low affinity and slightly affects the secondary structure of albumin. As demonstrated by the use of ABTS and FRAP assays, HSA has a higher antioxidant and reduction potential than Qi, while their mutual interaction results in a synergistic effect in antioxidant activity and reduction potential.

Curr Med Chem 2022; 29:5113-5129.

Abstract
Background:
Carvacrol, a plant phenolic monoterpene, is largely employed as
food additive and phytochemical.
Objective:
We aimed to assess the lipid lowering and protective effects of carvacrol in
vitro using cellular models of hepatic steatosis and endothelial dysfunction. We also investigated if and how the binding of carvacrol to albumin, the physiological transporter
for small compounds in the blood, might be altered by the presence of high levels of fatty
acids (FAs).
Methods:
Hepatic FaO cells treated with exogenous FAs mimic hepatosteatosis; endothelial HECV cells exposed to hydrogen peroxide are a model of endothelial dysfunction. In
these models, we measured spectrophotometrically lipid accumulation and release,
lipoperoxidation, free radical production, and nitric oxide release before and after treatment with carvacrol. The carvacrol binding to albumin in the presence or absence of high
levels of FAs was assessed by absorption and emission spectroscopies.
Results:
Carvacrol counteracted lipid accumulation and oxidative stress in hepatocytes
and protected endothelial cells from oxidative stress and dysfunction. Moreover, high levels of FAs reduced the binding of carvacrol to albumin.
Conclusion:
The results suggest the good potential of carvacrol in ameliorating dysfunction of hepatic and endothelial cells in vitro. High levels of circulating FAs might compete with carvacrol for binding to albumin thus influencing its transport and bio-distribution.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) based on the proteolytic enzyme trypsin (TRY) were prepared by a biocompatible methodology. TRY co-assembled with the anionic polysaccharide chondroitin sulfate (CS) in complexes with well-defined distributions of radii in the range of 100-200 nm by electrostatic complexation at acidic conditions. At pH 7 the complexes were unstable and lost their monomodal size distribution which is potentially related to TRY's weak positive net surface charge and a large negative charge patch that forms at neutral pH. Thermal treatment at conditions which were not expected to interfere with TRY's proteolytic activity was used to stabilize the complexes into NPs that resisted disintegration at pH 7 taking advantage of the ability of the TRY globules to thermally aggregate. The secondary conformation of TRY within the NPs was found fairly unperturbed even after thermal treatment which is crucial for its physiological function. The CS-TRY NPs could bind and encapsulate the bioactive substances curcumin (CUR) and β-carotene (β-C) owing to TRY's hydrophobic domains. The CS-TRY NPs may be considered as a platform for the immobilized active enzyme and multifunctional NPs for hydrophobic bioactive compounds.

Abstract
Curcumin (Cur) is a bioactive phytochemical which is claimed to have several health-promoting benefits, whose applications are challenging due to its poor water-solubility, chemical instability, and low bioavailability. In this research, Cur was encapsulated in the cod protein (CP) using a pH-driven method to enhance its solubility and stability. The physicochemical and structural properties of cod protein-curcumin nanoparticles (CP-Cur) formed were characterized. Fluorescence spectroscopy (FL), ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV), circular dichroism (CD), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) results collectively suggest that the protein originally with a molten-globule state refolded into a more ordered structure after neutralization, during which Cur was incorporated. Fluorescence quenching and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) further showed that the CP/Cur binding was mainly driven by hydrophobic interactions, resulting in static fluorescence quenching and energy release. Up to 99.50% of Cur was loaded in the CP delivery system. Furthermore, the thermal stability and photostability of Cur were greatly improved due to the protection of the protein. The present study proved that cod protein could be a great potential edible carrier for encapsulating curcumin.

Abstract
SCOPE Different mechanistic approaches to improve the low oral bioavailability of curcumin have been developed, but not yet directly compared in humans. METHODS AND RESULTS In a randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial with 12 healthy adults, the 24 h pharmacokinetics of a single dose of 207 mg curcumin is compared from the following formulations: native, liposomes, with turmeric oils, with adjuvants (including piperine), submicron-particles, phytosomes, γ-cyclodextrin complexes, and micelles. No free, but only conjugated curcumin is detected in all subjects. Compared to native curcumin, a significant increase in the area under the plasma concentration-time curve is observed for micellar curcumin (57-fold) and the curcumin-γ-cyclodextrin complex (30-fold) only. In vitro digestive stability, solubility, and micellization efficiency of micellar curcumin (100%, 80%, and 55%) and curcumin-γ-cyclodextrin complex (73%, 33%, and 23%) are higher compared to all other formulations (<72%, <8%, and <4%). The transport efficiencies through Caco-2 cell monolayers of curcumin from the digested mixed-micellar fractions did not differ significantly. CONCLUSION The improved oral bioavailability of micellar curcumin, and to a lesser extent of γ-cyclodextrin curcumin complexes, appears to be facilitated by increased post-digestive stability and solubility, whereas strategies targeting post-absorptive processes, including inhibition of biotransformation, appear ineffective.

Abstract
The interaction between anticancer drugs and HSA may have a significant impact on the pharmacology and efficacy of drugs. Drugs change the binding properties of HSA by regulating the quenching mechanism, binding mode and binding affinity. In this study, the interactions of cisplatin (cDDP), HSA, and daphnoretin were elucidated by multi-spectroscopic analyses and docking simulation. Fluorescence quenching showed that cDDP could not change the static quenching mechanism of HSA-daphnoretin, but could enhance their binding affinity. Site competition experiments revealed that daphnoretin and cDDP both bound to site I, which was consistent with the results of molecular docking. Thermodynamic date indicated that cDDP and daphnoretin formed a more stable complex with HSA via hydrophobic, van der Waals interaction and hydrogen bond. Three-dimensional fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra showed that cDDP changed the conformation and micro-environment of HSA induced by daphnoretin. This work could provide valuable information for the binding properties and interaction among cDDP, daphnoretin and HSA, and put forward the possibility of using HSA as a multidrug carrier.

Abstract
The current study investigates the binding process of Zr(CUR) as a novel six-coordinate complex of zirconium with curcumin ligand and curcumin (CUR); as the main pharmacologically active ingredient of turmeric to human serum albumin (HSA); using fluorescence spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and molecular docking techniques. The fluorimetric results revealed that Zr(CUR) and CUR could effectively quench the endogenous fluorescence of HSA, formed a 1:1 complex, with a static quenching mechanism. The distance between donor (HSA) and acceptor (Zr(CUR) and CUR) were determined to be 3.15 nm for Zr(CUR) and 2.95 nm for CUR on the basis of the Forester's theory of non-radiative energy transfer. Results of the infrared absorption spectrum show that the secondary structure of HSA changes for both types. Molecular docking results indicated that for structure with minimum binding energy Zr(CUR) and CUR are in the position between IIA and IIIA. Also, a docking study showed that Zr(CUR) and CUR have several hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals contact with HSA.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Two novel water-soluble pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives, 5-chloro-7-(4-methyl-piperazin -1-yl)-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (CMPS) and N'-(5-chloro-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-yl)-N,N-dimethyl -propane-1,3-diamine (NCPS), were synthesized and characterized with antibacterial activity. Then, the interactions of these compounds with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular docking. The results indicate that both CMPS and NCPS could effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA via a static quenching process. The energy transfer from BSA to CMPS and NCPS may occur with high probability. Both CMPS and NCPS bind in the site I of BSA. The hydrophobic force and hydrogen bonds play major roles in the complex formation. Binding constants for both systems show that the affinity of CMPS binding to BSA is stronger than that of NCPS. The results of three-dimensional fluorescence and CD spectra reveal that the binding of CMPS and NCPS to BSA can induce conformational changes of BSA, and the influence of CMPS is slightly stronger than that of NCPS.

Abstract
Active targeted drug delivery methods facilitate effective uptake of functionalized nanoparticles through receptor-mediated transcytosis. In recent years, albumin-nanoparticle interaction has been critically examined so that this functionalized nanoparticle can be efficiently loaded with drugs. The present investigation aims at understanding the adsorption of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) on Silver Nanoparticle (SNP) surface, preparation of soft conjugates (SC) and hard conjugates (HC) of BSA-functionalized SNP (SNP-BSA), and their interaction with curcumin (CUR). HC contains tightly bound BSA whereas SC involves tightly and loosely bound BSA. Increase in the hydrodynamic radii of conjugates was observed upon SNP incubation with increased concentration of BSA. Three different SNP-BSA conjugate ratios were selected to study their interaction with CUR. Fluorescence spectroscopy showed a strong association between CUR and SNP:BSA conjugates. However, binding varied with a change in the conjugate ratio. Circular Dichroism (CD)/Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy revealed the alterations in the secondary structure of BSA upon CUR binding to the conjugates. Zeta potential data indicated stable conjugate formation. CUR in SNP:BSA conjugate was found to have a higher half-life as compared to the control. We believe that this is the first biophysical characterization report of conjugates that can be effectively extrapolated for targeted drug delivery. Soft Conjugates (SC) and Hard conjugates (HC) of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) and Silver nanoparticles (SNP) were prepared and interaction with anticancer drug CUR was explored. Binding number and adsorption capacity of drug was identified. Conformational and microenvironment changes in adsorbed BSA upon SNP and CUR interaction were investigated. Best possible conjugates were identified for efficient loading of CUR drug. Drug designed can be further studied for its interaction with glycoprotein receptor present on the diseased (cancerous) cell.

Abstract
Three Pt(II) complexes containing the natural ligands curcumin and caffeine, namely [Pt(curc)(PPh3)2]Cl (1), [PtCl(curc)(DMSO)] (2) (curc = deprotonated curcumin) and trans-[Pt(caffeine)Cl2(DMSO)] (3), were synthesized and fully characterized. The data obtained suggest that, for both 1 and 2, the anion of curcumin is coordinated to the platinum ion via the oxygen atoms of the β-diketonate moiety. Spectroscopic features reveal that in 2 and 3, a DMSO molecule is S-bonded to the metal centre. For 3, all data indicate a square-planar geometry formed by a 9-N bonded caffeine, two trans chloride anions and a DMSO. The three complexes undergo changes in solution upon incubation for 24 h; 1 and 2 release curcumin while 3 isomerizes from trans to cis configuration. The DNA-binding and cytotoxic properties of 1-3 were evaluated in vitro. Despite their structural similarity, curcuminate-containing 1 and 2 exhibit distinct DNA interactions. While 1 appears to intercalate between nucleobase pairs, inducing the oxidative degradation of the biomolecule, 2 behaves as a groove binder, by means of electrostatic forces. Caffeine-containing 3 exhibits a behaviour that is comparable to that of 2. Complexes 1 and 2 showed moderate to high cytotoxicity and selectivity against several cancer cell lines, while 3 is inactive. Compounds 1 and 2 can be further activated by visible-light irradiation.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly occurring cancer in men and the second most commonly occurring cancer in women worldwide. We have recently reported that curcuminoid complexes labelled with gallium-68 have demonstrated preferential uptake in HT29 colorectal cancer and K562 lymphoma cell lines compared to normal human lymphocytes. In the present study, we report a new gallium-68-labelled curcumin derivative (68Ga-DOTA-C21) and its initial validation as marker for early detection of colorectal cancer. The precursor and non-radioactive complexes were synthesized and deeply characterized by analytical methods then the curcuminoid was radiolabelled with gallium-68. The in vitro stability, cell uptake, internalization and efflux properties of the probe were studied in HT29 cells, and the in vivo targeting ability and biodistribution were investigated in mice bearing HT29 subcutaneous tumour model. 68Ga-DOTA-C21 exhibits decent stability (57 ± 3% after 120 min of incubation) in physiological media and a curcumin-mediated cellular accumulation in colorectal cancer cell line (121 ± 4 KBq of radiotracer per mg of protein within 60 min of incubation). In HT29 tumour-bearing mice, the tumour uptake of 68Ga-DOTA-C21 is 3.57 ± 0.3% of the injected dose per gram of tissue after 90 min post injection with a tumour to muscle ratio of 2.2 ± 0.2. High amount of activity (12.73 ± 1.9% ID/g) is recorded in blood and significant uptake of the radiotracer occurs in the intestine (13.56 ± 3.3% ID/g), lungs (8.42 ± 0.8% ID/g), liver (5.81 ± 0.5% ID/g) and heart (4.70 ± 0.4% ID/g). Further studies are needed to understand the mechanism of accumulation and clearance; however, 68Ga-DOTA-C21 provides a productive base-structure to develop further radiotracers for imaging of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin is a natural polyphenolic compound with anti-cancer, antiinflammatory, and anti-oxidation properties. Low water solubility and rapid hydrolytic degradation are two challenges limiting use of curcumin. OBJECTIVE In this study, the roles of the native/modified forms of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) and casein, as food-grade biopolymers and also protein chemical modification, in stabilizing and on biological activity of curcumin were surveyed. METHODS In this article, we used various spectroscopic as well as cell culture-based techniques along with calculation of thermodynamic parameters. RESULTS Investigation of curcumin stability indicated that curcumin binding to the native BSA and modified β -lg were stronger than those of the modified BSA and native β -lg, respectively and hence, the native BSA and modified β-lg could suppress water-mediated and light-mediated curcumin degradation, significantly. Moreover, in the presence of the native proteins (BSA and casein), curcumin revealed elevated in vitro anti-cancer activity against MCF-7 (human breast carcinoma cell line) and SKNMC (human neuroblastoma cell line). As well, curcumin, in the presence of the unmodified "BSA and β-lg", was more potent to decrease ROS generation by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) whereas it led to an inverse outcome in the presence of native casein. Overall, in the presence of the protein-bound curcumin, increased anti-cancer activity and decreased ROS generation by H2O2 in vitro were documented. CONCLUSION It appears that "water exclusion" is major determinant factor for increased stability/ efficacy of the bound curcumin so that some protein-curcumin systems may provide novel tools to increase both food quality and the bioavailability of curcumin as health promoting agent.

Abstract
The codelivery system for multiple antioxidants such as anthocyanins (Ant) and curcumin (Cur) of synergistic action may effectively enhance their stability and cellular absorption. We have reported that amphiphilic peptides obtained from enzymatic partial hydrolysis of α-lactalbumin (α-lac) can self-assemble into 20 nm monodispersed nanomicelles in aqueous solution. Cur and Ant could be coloaded into the micelles sequentially via hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions, which was proved by fluorescence quenching experiments for the Cur-micelle and Ant-micelle interactions. Circular dichroism spectra proved that the Cur and Ant binding did not affect their structure confirmation. Both Cur- and Ant-loaded micelles showed improved stability and also exhibited an intestinal pH responsive release property in simulated gastrointestinal fluid. In addition, the nanomicelles exhibited an advanced cellular uptake and transmembrane permeability based on Caco-2 cell monolayer models. Finally, the coloaded micelles possessed a synergistic efficiency such that cellular antioxidant activity (CAA) for Cur and Ant was markedly improved.

Abstract
The interaction between Gd@C82(OH)22 and serum albumin (HSA and BSA) were investigated by spectroscopic analysis. From the characteristic feature of fluorescence quenching spectra at different temperatures, the inherent binding information including quenching mechanism, association constants, number of binding site, fraction of initial fluorescence and basic thermodynamic parameters were calculated. The binding of Gd@C82(OH)22 to serum albumin caused strong quenching of protein intrinsic fluorescence and the structural changes of serum albumin. At lower concentrations, Gd@C82(OH)22 was likely to rise fluorescence quenching of serum albumin through individual static quenching process by forming a ground-state complex, while dynamic and static coexisting quenching mechanism occurred in high concentration. Bimolecular quenching (Kq) value is twice the diffusion-controlled quenching constant (2.0 × 1010 L mol-1 s-1); binding sites of BSA were slightly more than those of HAS, and all of them reached to 1; the distance r between donor and acceptor was found to be 3.1494 nm and 3.6479 nm for HSA and BSA, respectively, both of which were fewer than 7 nm. It is confirmed that binding interaction for proteins in the presence of drugs was strong, the binding ratio was 1:1, and non-radiative energy transfer from protein to drug was extremely high probability in lower density. Binding process of Gd@C82(OH)22-HSA was driven mainly through van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding formation, however more likely to be electrostatic interaction involved in the Gd@C82(OH)22-BSA binding process; Binding sites of Gd@C82(OH)22 to serum albumin were near tryprophan (HSA) and tyrosine residues (BSA), respectively. Moreover, a theoretical model of predicting the binding rate of drug to serum albumin was estimated, further analyzed that the binding rate was dynamically altered in various dose of protein and drug. Overall, these results provide potentially significant information for elucidating the distribution, transportation, the apparent relationship between pharmacologic activity and total plasma drug concentration as well as anti-carcinogenic activity and mechanisms in vivo.

Abstract
Curcumin isoxazole (CI) and Curcumin pyrazole (CP), the diketo modified derivatives of Curcumin (CU) are metabolically more stable and are being explored for pharmacological properties. One of the requirements in such activities is their interaction with circulatory proteins like human serum albumin (HSA). To understand this, the interactions of CI and CP with HSA have been investigated employing absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and the results are compared with that of CU. The respective binding constants of CP, CI and CU with HSA were estimated to be 9.3×105, 8.4×105 and 2.5×105M-1, which decreased with increasing salt concentration in the medium. The extent of decrease in the binding constant was the highest in CP followed by CI and CU. This revealed that along with hydrophobic interaction other binding modes like electrostatic interactions operate between CP/CI/CU with HSA. Fluorescence quenching studies of HSA with these compounds suggested that both static and dynamic quenching mechanisms operate, where the contribution of static quenching is higher for CP and CI than that for CU. From fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies, the binding site of CU, CI and CP was found to be in domain IIA of HSA. CU was found to bind in closer proximity with Trp214 as compared to CI and CP and the same was responsible for efficient energy transfer and the same was also established by fluorescence anisotropy measurements. Furthermore docking simulation complemented the experimental observation, where both electrostatic as well as hydrophobic interactions were indicated between HSA and CP, CI and CU. This study is useful in designing more stable CU derivatives having suitable binding properties with proteins like HSA.

Abstract
Thymol is the main monoterpene phenol present in the essential oils which is used in the food industry as flavoring and preservative agent. In this study, the interaction of thymol with the concentration range of 1 to 6 μM and bovine serum albumin (BSA) at fixed concentration of 1 μM was investigated by fluorescence, UV-vis, and molecular docking methods under physiological-like condition. Fluorescence experiments were performed at 5 different temperatures, and the results showed that the fluorescence quenching of BSA by thymol was because of a static quenching mechanism. The obtained binding parameters, K, were in the order of 104 M-1 , and the binding number, n, was approximately equal to unity indicating that there is 1 binding site for thymol on BSA. Calculated thermodynamic parameters for enthalpy (ΔH), entropy (ΔS), and Gibb's free energy (ΔG) showed that the reaction was spontaneous and hydrophobic interactions were the main forces in the binding of thymol to BSA. The results of UV-vis spectroscopy and Arrhenius' theory showed the complex formation in the interaction of thymol and BSA. Negligible conformational changes in BSA by thymol were observed in fluorescence experiments, and the same results were also obtained from UV-vis studies. Results of molecular docking indicated that the subdomain IA of BSA was the binding site for thymol.

Abstract
Piperlongumine (PL) is a very promising natural agent with a high potential for cancer treatment. To overcome the poor water solubility of PL, there is a need to develop a novel water-soluble formulation in which PL is non-covalently bound to human serum albumin (HSA). PL binding to HSA was studied by various spectroscopic techniques under simulated physiological conditions. Spectroscopic evidence showed that the interaction of PL with HSA could form a PL-HSA complex. The binding constant (Ka ) values increased with increasing temperature, and a similar dependence was observed for the number of binding sites (n) values. The number of PL molecules bound to HSA reached 8.1 when the temperature was raised to 308 K. Thermodynamic calculation results suggested that the binding reaction occurred spontaneously but was an entropy-driven process, and hydrophobic forces played a major role in stabilizing the complex. Furthermore, PL binding induced conformational and microenvironmental changes in HSA. Displacement studies indicated that PL and warfarin had separate binding regions in site I. Therefore, it would be possible to develop a novel water-soluble formulation involving PL and HSA. This study may provide some valuable information in terms of improving the poor water solubility of PL.

Abstract
In this study, the single and simultaneous interactions of theophylline and flavonoids with human serum albumin (HSA) were studied by multi-spectroscopic and molecular docking approaches. The influences of flavonoids on the binding constant (Kb) and the binding distance (r) of theophylline bind to HSA were determined and the changes of HSA conformation caused by the synergies of theophylline and flavonoids were investigated. Because theophylline, rutin and baicalin are all bond to the same binding site, the competitive bind of theophylline and flavonoids to HSA leads to the reduction of the Ka value of theophylline binding to HSA. The addition of rutin and baicalin can increase the value of r of theophylline binding to HSA, which further confirm the existence of the competitive bind of theophylline and flavonoids to HSA. Additionally, the results of synchronous fluorescence, three-dimensional fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra indicate that the presence of rutin and baicalin can give rise to the further changes of HSA conformation. These results suggest that the intake of flavonoid-rich food and beverages can increase the serum concentrations of theophylline and induce a high incidence of toxic symptom in clinic.

[PMID: 28718803 PMCID: PMC6151986 DOI: 10.3390/molecules22071201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2017] [Revised: 06/30/2017] [Accepted: 07/12/2017] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The albumin molecule, in contrast to many other plasma proteins, is not covered with a carbohydrate moiety and can bind and transport various molecules of endogenous and exogenous origin. The enzymatic activity of albumin, the existence of which many scientists perceive skeptically, is much less studied. In toxicology, understanding the mechanistic interactions of organophosphates with albumin is a special problem, and its solution could help in the development of new types of antidotes. In the present work, the history of the issue is briefly examined, then our in silico data on the interaction of human serum albumin with soman, as well as comparative in silico data of human and bovine serum albumin activities in relation to paraoxon, are presented. Information is given on the substrate specificity of albumin and we consider the possibility of its affiliation to certain classes in the nomenclature of enzymes.
