Abstract
The exceptional ascending heights of graphene (carbon) and boron nitride nanostructures have invited scientists to explore metal nitride nanomaterials. Herein, Zn3N2 quantum dots (QDs) were prepared via a simple hydrothermal route from the reaction between zinc nitrate hexahydrate and ammonia solution that possess efficient strength towards sensing applications of metal ions (Cu2+ and Mn2+). The as-prepared Zn3N2 QDs show bright fluorescence, displaying an emission peak at 408 nm upon excitation at 320 nm, with a quantum yield (QY) of 29.56%. It was noticed that the fluorescence intensity of Zn3N2 QDs linearly decreases with the independent addition of Cu2+ and Mn2+ ions, displaying good linearity in the ranges 2.5-50 µM and 0.05-5 µM with detection limits of 21.77 nM and of 63.82 nM for Cu2+ and Mn2+ ions, respectively. The probe was successfully tested for quantifying Cu2+ and Mn2+ in real samples including river, canal, and tap water, providing good recoveries with a relative standard deviation < 2%. Furthermore, the masking proposition can successfully eliminate the interference if the two metal ions exist together. It was found that thiourea is efficiently able to mask Cu2+ and selectively quenches Mn2+, and L-cysteine is able to halt the quenching potential of Mn2+ and is selectively able to sense Cu2+. The Zn3N2 QDs provide a simple way for the simultaneous detection of both Cu2+ and Mn2+ ions in environmental samples at low sample preparations requirements.

Abstract
Binding studies of the water-soluble thiadicarbocyanine dye 3,3'-diethylthiadicarbocyanine acetate (DTC) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were examined under physiological conditions using spectroscopic techniques like fluorescence, UV-Visible, circular dichroism (CD), FT-IR and molecular docking methods. Compiled experimental results envisage that DTC quench the fluorescence intensity of BSA. The increasing binding constants (K) were found to be in the order of 103 Mol-1 as a function of temperature, as calculated from the fluorescence quenching data. The quenching mechanism, thermodynamic parameters (ΔH0, ΔS0 and ΔG0) and the number of binding sites have been explored. CD values showed that the secondary structure of the BSA has been altered upon binding to DTC. Displacement experiments were carried out with different site probes to find out the binding site of DTC on BSA and it was found that binding interaction at site II of sub-domain IIIA. The interference of common metal ions on the interaction of DTC with BSA has also been studied. The experimental data exhibit that DTC interacts with BSA by hydrophobic forces. The experimental findings from BSA binding studies were validated by using in silico molecular docking technique. The results of the investigations were accurately supported by studies on molecular docking. The optimal shape of the molecular probe demonstrated the affinity as a free binding energy release of -7.37 Kcal/mol. The present research report endeavors to the approachable nature of water-soluble DTC dye and paves way for targeted biological interactions.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Humans are exposed to excessive nanoplastics (NPs) which have ample affinity for globular proteins. We investigated the interaction of functionalized polystyrene nanoplastics (plain: PS, carboxy: PS-COOH, and amine: PS-NH2) with human hemoglobin (Hb) utilizing multi-spectroscopic and docking approaches to acquire insights into molecular aspects of binding mechanism, which will be helpful in assessing the toxicokinetics or toxicodynamics of nanoplastics NPs. Hypsochromicity and hypochromicity were observed invariably in all the spectra (steady-state fluorescence emission, synchronous and three-dimensional) for all complexes, among which PS-NH2 binds effectively and changes the Hb's conformation by enhancing hydrophobicity around aromatic residues, notably tryptophan. All the NPs bind with the hydrophobic pocket of B-chain in Hb, where PS and PS-NH2 bind via hydrophobic force while PS-COOH binds via hydrogen bonding (predominantly) and van der Waals force, consistent validated with docking results. The minimal shift in absorbance peak also indicates enhanced hydrophobicity by PS-NH2 with larger aggregation as demonstrated in resonance light scattering. The amide band's shift, secondary structural analysis, and presence of characteristic functional group peaks in complexes in Infra-Red spectra confirm the structural changes in the protein. As seen in field emission scanning microscopy images, NPs penetrate the surface of proteins. These findings conclude that polystyrene NPs interact with Hb, causing structural alterations that may affect functional characteristics as well, with the greatest effect being in the order: PS-NH2>PS-COOH>PS.

Abstract
Arsenic sulfide (As4S4) nanoparticles have been intensively researched as a promising drug in a cancer treatment. For the first time, the interaction between As4S4 and bovine serum albumin has been studied in this paper. Initially, the sorption kinetics of albumin on the surface of nanoparticles was investigated. Subsequently, its structural changes influenced by interaction with the As4S4 nanoparticles during wet stirred media milling were studied in deep. Both the dynamic and static quenching were detected after analyzing the fluorescence quenching spectra. From the synchronous fluorescence spectra it was investigated, that the fluorescence intensity for tyrosine residues decreased by about 55%, and for tryptophan it was about 80%. It indicates the fluorescence from tryptophan is more intense and gets more efficiently quenched than those from tyrosine residues in presence of As4S4, implying that the tryptophan can be closer to the binding site. From the circular dichroisms and FTIR spectra it was observed that conformation of the protein remains almost unchanged. The content of appropriate secondary structures was determined by deconvolution of the absorption peak attributed to the amide I band in FTIR spectra. The preliminary anti-tumor cytotoxic effect of prepared albumin-As4S4 system was also tested on multiple myeloma cell lines.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:1072.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was aimed at the investigation of the supramolecular systems based on cationic surfactants bearing cyclic head groups (imidazolium and pyrrolidinium) and polyanions (polyacrylic acid (PAA) and human serum albumin (HSA)), and factors governing their structural behavior to create functional nanosystems with controlled properties. Research hypothesis. Mixed PE-surfactant complexes based on oppositely charged species are characterized by multifactor behavior strongly affected by the nature of both components. It was expected that the transition from a single surfactant solution to an admixture with PE might provide synergetic effects on structural characteristics and functional activity. To test this assumption, the concentration thresholds of aggregation, dimensional and charge characteristics, and solubilization capacity of amphiphiles in the presence of PEs have been determined by tensiometry, fluorescence and UV-visible spectroscopy, and dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering. RESULTS The formation of mixed surfactant-PAA aggregates with a hydrodynamic diameter of 100-180 nm has been shown. Polyanion additives led to a decrease in the critical micelle concentration of surfactants by two orders of magnitude (from 1 mM to 0.01 mM). A gradual increase in the zeta potential of HAS-surfactant systems from negative to positive value indicates that the electrostatic mechanism contributes to the binding of components. Additionally, 3D and conventional fluorescence spectroscopy showed that imidazolium surfactant had little effect on HSA conformation, and component binding occurs due to hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals interactions through the tryptophan amino acid residue of the protein. Surfactant-polyanion nanostructures improve the solubility of lipophilic medicines such as Warfarin, Amphotericin B, and Meloxicam. PERSPECTIVES Surfactant-PE composition demonstrated beneficial solubilization activity and can be recommended for the construction of nanocontainers for hydrophobic drugs, with their efficacy tuned by the variation in surfactant head group and the nature of polyanions.

Abstract
Protein aggregation leads to several human pathologies such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), Parkinson's disease (PD), etc. Due to the overlap in the mechanisms of type 2 diabetes and brain disorders, common effective pharmacological interventions to treat both T2D and AD is under extensive research. Therefore, major aim of research is to repurpose already established treatment of diabetes to cure AD as well. This study evaluates mechanistic insight into anti-amyloidogenic potential of anti-diabetic drug Vildagliptin (VLD) on human serum albumin fibrillation (HSA) by using biophysical, calorimetric, imaging techniques along with hemolytic assay. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Rayleigh light scattering (RLS) results showed presence of few small-sized aggregates in the presence of VLD which are formed by deaccelerating the amyloidogenesis as shown by thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence and Congo red (CR) binding assay. Further, Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), steady state fluorescence quenching, molecular docking results revealed that VLD form complex with amyloid facilitating state of HSA and consequently mask the hydrophobic residues involved in amyloidogenesis as evident from decrease in ANS fluorescence. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results confirm that VLD stabilizes the amyloid facilitating state of HSA. In addition, SEM images demonstrated that VLD alleviates the hemolytic effect induced by fibrils of HSA. This study reports VLD as a potential inhibitor of amyloid fibrillation and provides promising results to repurpose VLD as a drug candidate for the cure of Alzheimer's diseases along with diabetes.

Abstract
Two immunosensors were advanced to target hazelnut Cor a 14 based on electrochemical and optical transduction. Both approaches were developed with two types of custom-made antibodies, namely anti-Cor a 14 IgG (rabbit) and anti-Cor a 14 IgY (hen's egg) targeting the Cor a 14 allergen. Antibody immobilisation was performed via EDC/NHS onto disposable screen-printed electrodes. The detection limit (LOD) of the electrochemical immunoassay for Cor a 14 was 5-times lower than the optical, being down to 0.05 fg mL-1 with a dynamic range of 0.1 fg mL-1 to 0.01 ng mL-1. Antibody selectivity was verified against non-target 2S albumins (potential cross-reactive plant species). Anti-Cor a 14 IgY exhibited the best specificity, presenting minor cross-reactivity with peanut/walnut. Preliminary results of the application of anti-Cor a 14 IgY electrochemical immunosensor to incurred foods established a LOD of 1 mg kg-1 of hazelnut in wheat (0.16 mg kg-1 hazelnut protein).

Abstract
Protein adsorption research has primarily focused upon the effects of surface chemistry, with almost no emphasis on how changes to proteins that occur in various disease states may influence their adsorption. One such situation occurs with chronic kidney disease where, despite hemodialysis treatment, the retention of urea within the blood compartment leads to protein carbamylation. Protein carbamylation has been shown to alter the function and structure of proteins. This work is focused on understanding how different degrees of carbamylation affect the physicochemical properties (structure, charge, water interactions) of single proteins (α-lactalbumin, albumin, and fibrinogen) and their adsorption to self-assembled monolayers. It was found that, unlike its secondary structure, the protein's tertiary structure was significantly altered upon carbamylation. Also, compared to native proteins, an increase in carbamylation lead to an increase in the negative surface charge of the protein and a weaker hydration state of the protein. In order to study the effects of different types of neutral surfaces, of different surface-water properties, on protein adsorption both bare and alkanethiol modified (-CH3 or -OH end-groups) Au surfaces with were used as model surfaces. A significant decrease in adsorbed amounts of carbamylated fibrinogen and carbamylated α-lactalbumin, but not for carbamylated albumin, relative to native proteins was observed for both surfaces; suggesting that the increase in negative surface charge is more influential on adsorption than the change in hydration that occurs throughout the protein upon carbamylation. This data suggests that protein alterations that occur due to disease states have a significant effect on the overall protein structure and these changes affect their adsorption to surfaces.

Abstract
The excellent biocompatible and monodispersed gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized by amino based ionic liquid (IL) have been synthesized for the demonstration of their interaction with human serum albumin (HSA). Amino based IL stabilizes the surface of AuNPs and provides a colorimetric sensor platform. The size of synthesized IL–AuNPs was identified by use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) techniques. Molecular interaction of functionalized AuNPs with HSA have been investigated using multispectroscopic techniques, such as UV-Vis, fluorescence and Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The fluorescence and synchronous fluorescent intensity together indicated that IL–AuNPs exhibits a strong ability to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA via a dynamic quenching mechanism. Moreover, the binding constant (Ka), Stern–Volmer quenching constant (KSV) and different thermodynamic parameters, namely Gibb's free energy (ΔG), enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) have been evaluated at different temperatures. This interactive study focuses on the nature of surface modification of IL–AuNPs via HSA for selective detection of glutamine (Glu) with a lower limit of detection of 0.67 nM in the linear range of 10–100 nM for Glu. The excellent biocompatible and monodispersed gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized by amino based ionic liquid (IL) have been synthesized for the demonstration of their interaction with human serum albumin (HSA).![]()

Abstract
HSA is an important plasma protein responsible for transport of drug molecules. Coumarin derivatives play critical role as anticancer, antidiabetic and antiparkinson agents. In our lab we have synthesized coumarin-based pharmacophore, di(2-picolyl)amine-3(bromoacetyl) coumarin (ligand-L) endowed with anticancer activity. Anticancer agents binding mode of HSA provides valuable pharmacological information and is a structural guidance in synthesizing new drugs with greater efficacy. Thus, binding mechanism of ligand-L with HSA was explored using spectroscopic and molecular docking techniques. UV-Vis spectroscopy demonstrates hyperchromism in the absorbance spectra of HSA on addition of ligand-L suggesting interaction of ligand-L with HSA. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicates quenching in the fluorescence of HSA in the presence of ligand-L confirming the complex formation and this binding follows static mechanism. Steady state fluorescence spectroscopy revealed high binding affinity between ligand-L and HSA with a 1:1 stoichiometry. Thermodynamic parameters obtained by ITC suggest that the interaction between ligand-L and HSA is mainly driven by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds, and the negative value of ΔG is an indication of spontaneous binding process. Competitive binding and molecular docking experiments showed that the binding site of ligand-L mainly resides in sub-domain IIA of HSA. CD experiments revealed no significant conformational changes in the secondary structure of HSA on binding of ligand-L. We also found that esterase-like activity of HSA was not affected by ligand-L. In conclusion, this study demonstrates binding mechanism of ligand-L with HSA, and the binding did not induce conformational changes in HSA. This study is likely to provide better understanding of transport and delivery of ligand-L via HSA. Overall, it will provide insights into pharmacokinetic properties of ligand-L and designing new ligand-L based derivatives with greater efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The suppression of α-glucosidase activity to retard glucose absorption is an important therapy for type-2 diabetes. Corosolic acid (CRA) is a potential antidiabetic component in many plant-based foods and herbs. In this study, the interplay mechanism between α-glucosidase and corosolic acid was investigated by several methods, including three-dimensional fluorescence spectra, circular dichroism spectra, and molecular simulation. RESULTS Corosolic acid significantly inhibited α-glucosidase reversibly in an uncompetitive manner and its IC50 value was 1.35 × 10-5 mol L-1 . A combination of CRA with myricetin exerted a weak synergy against α-glucosidase. The intrinsic fluorescence of α-glucosidase was quenched via a static quenching course and the binding constant was 3.47 × 103 L mol-1 at 298 K. The binding of CRA to α-glucosidase was mainly driven by hydrophobic forces and resulted in a partial extension of the protein polypeptide chain with a loss of α-helix content. The molecular simulation illustrated that CRA bound to the entrance part of the active center of α-glucosidase and interacted with the amino acid residues Ser157, Arg442, Phe303, Arg315, Tyr158, and Gln353, which could hinder the release of substrate and catalytic reaction product, eventually suppressing the catalytic activity of α-glucosidase. CONCLUSIONS These results may suggest new insights into corosolic acid from food sources as a potential α-glucosidase inhibitor that could better control diabetes. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Among the side effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), the performance of the gastrointestinal reactions is faster and more obvious than others. In this work, the effects of 5-FU on the activities and conformational structures of the important digestive enzymes including α-amylase, pepsin and trypsin were studied to analyze the mechanism of the gastrointestinal adverse effects causing by 5-FU binding. The results showed that the enzymatic activity of pepsin was obviously reduced by the presence of 5-FU that bound directly to the enzyme activity cavity site. The molecular modeling and fluorescence quenching data indicated that the hydrophobic, polar and hydrogen bonding forces were involved in the ground state complex formation between proteases and 5-FU. In addition, 5-FU changed the tertiary structures of α-amylase, pepsin, and trypsin.

Abstract
A simple selective luminescent dependent approach was established for quantitation of two selective β2 agonists namely; Fenoterol hydrobromide (FEN) and Salmeterol xinafoate (SAL). This approach utilizes the capability of the cited drugs to undergo a complexation reaction with Europium ion (Eu3+) in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline as a co-ligand. The resultant complex leads to a hypersensitive transition and enhancement of the Eu3+ emission peak at 615nm (279nm excitation). Under the optimized conditions, the rectilinear concentration plots of both drugs were (70-1500ngmL-1) and (100-2000ngmL-1) with limit of quantitation 51.3 and 84.4ngmL-1 for FEN and SAL, respectively. The luminescence properties of the complex and its optimum formation conditions were carefully investigated according to the regulations of ICH and the method was successfully applied in plasma. The good accuracy and selectivity of the suggested method allowed extending the proposed protocol into stability study of the cited drugs.

Abstract
We report the unfolding of the globular protein, Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) induced by anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and subsequently monitored the refolding of this denatured BSA using triblock copolymers F127 and P123 through the formation of mixed micelles. Our study exclusively represents the reversibility of this unfolding-refolding process using pluronic triblock copolymers F127/P123 as refolding agents. We confirm the recovery of its native state from its denatured state estimating the α-helical structure of the denatured protein from the CD data which support our steady state fluorescence spectra monitoring the fluorescence of the intrinsic Trp molecules present in BSA. Time resolved study also corroborates the stepwise recovery of the denatured BSA as well as the reversibility of the processes. Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) data explain the negligible interactions between the triblock copolymers and the native state of BSA. The high binding constant of SDS and triblock copolymers probably play the crucial role in the stepwise recovery of the unfolded BSA followed by reversibility of the refolding processes through the formation of the mixed micelles. The mechanism of mixed-micelle formation has been substantiated by the fact that the Guanidine Hydrochloride denatured BSA does not react with F127/P123 whereby no recovery of the protein was observed.

Abstract
Background:
Natural products are produced via primary and secondary metabolism in
different organisms. The compounds obtained via secondary metabolism are not essential for the
survival of the organism, but they can have a different value for humans.
Objective:
The objective of this study was to examine inhibitory effects of Usnic Acid (UA), a
well-known lichen secondary metabolite, and Carnosic Acid (CA), the primary antioxidant
compound of Rosmarinus officinalis L., on purified Human Paraoxonase, (PON1), Glutathione
Reductase (GR) and Glutathione S-Transferase (GST). These enzymes have antioxidant properties
and a protective effect on the oxidation of free radicals. Hence, deficiencies of such enzymes inside
cells can result in a buildup of toxic substances and cause some metabolic disorders.
Methods:
UA and CA were tested in various concentrations against human GST, PON1, and GR
activity in vitro and they reduced human GST, PON1, and GR activity.
Results:
UA Ki constants were calculated as 0.012±0.0019, 0.107±0.06 and 0.21±0.1 mM for GST,
PON1, and GR enzymes. CA Ki constants were determined as 0.028±0.009, 0.094±0.03 and
0.79±0.33 mM, for GST, PON1, and GR enzymes. UA and CA showed competitive inhibition for
GR and GST enzymes, while they exhibited non-competitive inhibition for PON1.
Conclusion:
These findings indicate that UA and CA could be useful in drug development studies.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes with high quality for highly selective detection of cysteine (Cys) are still urgently in demand because of the indispensable roles Cys plays in the biological systems. Herein, a red-emitting fluorescent probe CP was developed for the highly selective detection of Cys over glutathione (GSH) and homocysteine (Hcy) by incorporating acryloyl group as the recognition unit into the 2-(2-(4-hydroxystyryl)-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene) malononitrile (P-OH) fluorophore which is characterized by red emission, noteworthy Stokes shift, and appreciable photostability. Basically, CP demonstrated appreciable sensing performance toward Cys including short response time of 4 min, high sensitivity with approximately 147-fold emission enhancement, low detection limit of 41.696 nM, and good selectivity both in the solution and living cells, indicating its promising potential of visualizing Cys in biological systems.

Abstract
Fe3+ ions play an important role in both biological and environmental field. In this work, two novel rhodamine-based colorimetric and fluorescent probes (RBA2 and RBA3) were designed and synthesized for the efficient detection of Fe3+. Upon the addition of Fe3+, the fluorescence intensity of RBA2 and RBA3 enhanced 108-fold and 222-fold, respectively. RBA2 and RBA3 exhibited a low detection limit which could achieve 12.8 nM and 11.0 nM. In addition, the binding modes of RBA2 and RBA3 with Fe3+ were proved to be 1:1 stoichiometry in the complexes by Job's plot, ESI-MS and 1H NMR results. The complexing ability of RBA3 with Fe3+ excessed to that of RBA2 that was determined by the binding association constants, and highly consistent with DFT calculations results. Furthermore, RBA2 and RBA3 were further utilized to detect Fe3+ in living cells and real water samples, indicating their promising prospects in biological and environmental field.

Abstract
Synthesis, characterization and investigation of antiproliferative activity of nine triazene salts against human cancer cells lines (MV-4-11, MCF-7, JURKAT, HT-29, Hep-G2, HeLa, Du-145 and DAUDI), and normal human mammary epithelial cell line (MCF7-10A) is presented. The structures of novel compounds were determined using 1H and 13C NMR, and GC-APCI-MS analyses. Among the derivatives, compound 2c, 2d, 2e and 2f has very strong activity against biphenotypic B myelomonocytic leukemia MV4-11, with IC50 values from 5.42 to 7.69 µg/ml. The cytotoxic activity of compounds 2c-2f against normal human mammary gland epithelial cells MCF-10A is 6–11 times lower than against cancer cell lines. Our results also show that compounds 2c and 2f have very strong activity against DAUDI and HT-29 with IC50 4.91 µg/ml and 5.59 µg/ml, respectively. Their lipophilicity was determined using reversed-phase ultra-performance liquid chromatography and correlated with antiproliferative activity. Our UV–Vis spectroscopic results indicate also that triazene salts tends to interact with negatively charged DNA phosphate chain. To support the experiment, theoretical calculations of the 1H NMR shifts were carried out within the Density Functional Theory.

Abstract
In our continued efforts to develop metal based therapeutic agents, we have synthesized a novel copper(II) complex, [{Cu(hpdbal-sbdt)}2] (2) tethered with a biocompatible ONS2- donor backbone [H2hpdbal-sbdt] (1) [H2hpdbal-sbdt is a tridentate ligand derived from S-benzyldithiocarbazate (Hsbdt) and 2-hydroxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl)benzaldehyde (Hhpdbal)]. The metal complex (2) was characterized using attenuated total reflection-infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetric (TG-DSC) analysis, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and elemental (CHNS) analysis. The antineoplastic ability of copper complex was evaluated in vitro against human cervical cancer (HeLa) cells. MTT assay results showed that the copper complex exhibited significant growth inhibition of HeLa cells with an IC50 value of 4.46 μM and this value was compared with reported standards. Cytotoxicity of the copper complex towards human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293) was also evaluated. The potentially active copper complex was studied for its solution state stability at a pH range of 3-9. Following this, the interactive behaviour of the bioactive copper complex with a drug transporter protein (BSA) was deciphered through multi-spectrosopic investigations like steady-state fluorescence, three-dimensional fluorescence, deconvoluted-IR and UV-Visible techniques.

Abstract
Streptozocin (STZ) is a broad range antibiotic, highly genotoxic, antineoplastic and hyperglycemic. HSA is the most abundant protein in physiology and it binds to almost all exogenic and endogenic ligands, including drugs. STZ-induced fluorescence quenching of HSA has been done at pH 7.4, pH 3.5 and at pH 7.4 with 4.5 M urea at temperatures 286 K, 291 K, and 306 K. Ksv found to be 103 M-1, binding constant 1.5X103M-1 and binding sites ~1. But, Ksv for HSA and glucopyranose interaction was found lesser than that of HSA-STZ binding. Binding of STZ/glucopyranose on HSA seems to result in complex formation as calculated Kq > 1010 M-1 s-1. The number of binding sites, binding constants, and binding energies were increased with temperature. The ΔG0, ΔH0, and ΔS0 for HSA-STZ interaction were found to be -17.7 × 103 J·mol-1; 2.34 × 105 J·mol-1 and 841 JK-1 mol-1 respectively at pH 7.4 and 291 K. The comparative bindings of N, F and I states of HSA with STZ and their molecular docking analyses indicate that IIIA-B junction (i.e., inter-helix h6DOM3-h7DOM3) is the probable binding site, a locus close to fatty acid binding site-5. These results could be useful for therapeutic and analytical exploitation of STZ, as albumin used as the vehicle for drug delivery.

Abstract
In this work, the interactions between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and five sweeteners including aspartame (APM), acesulfame (AK), sucralose (TGS), sodium cyclamate (SC), and rebaudioside-A (REB-A) have been studied by multispectroscopic techniques, and molecular simulation in order to provide much useful information for the application of new and safer artificial sweeteners. Fluorescence quenching assays indicated that the formation of complexes between sweeteners and BSA mainly induced the fluorescence quenching of protein and the binding site number were about 1 indicting that there is one mainly binding site of APM, AK, TGS, SC, or REB-A in domain of BSA with relatively weak interactions. Molecular modeling results indicated that hydrogen bonding interactions were the mainly binding forces of sweeteners with BSA. Circular dichroism spectra indicated that APM and REB-A obviously induced the secondary structure changes of BSA. The presence of APM increased the fraction of α-Helix of BSA from 65.4% to 73.8%, while the presence of REB-A resulted in decreasing the fraction of α-helix of BSA from 65.4% to 51.2%. The melting temperature studies showed that these five sweeteners except REB-A act as stabilizers to increase the thermal stability of BSA during the thermal denaturation process. In addition, AK, TGS, and SC obviously increased the esterase-like activity of BSA, and such loss of activity of BSA induced by APM and REB-A.

Abstract
Thioxanthone and its derivatives are the most remarkable molecules due to their vast variety of application such as radiation curing that is, until using them as a therapeutic drug. Therefore, in this study it was intended to use 2-Thioxanthone acetic acid with and without NaCl in Tris HCl buffer solution (pH:7.0) to represent the interaction with ct-DNA. The UV-vis absorption spectra of TXCH2COOH in the presence of ct-DNA showed hypochromism and the intrinstic binding constant (Kb) was determined as 6 × 103 L mol-1. The fluoresence intensity of TXCH2COOH with ct-DNA clearly increased up to 101% which indicated that the fluorescence intensity was very sensitive to ct-DNA concentration. The binding constant (K) and the values of number of binding sites (n) and were calculated as 1.8 × 103 L mol-1 and 0.69, respectively. When the quenching constants (Ksv) of free TXCH2COOH and TXCH2COOH, which were bonded with ct-DNA were compared, slightly changed values of Ksv were seen. Moreover, displacement assay with Hoechst 33,258 and viscosity measurements in the presence and absence of NaCl salt also confirmed the binding mode which noted the electrostatic interaction following groove binding between TXCH2COOH and ct-DNA. Last but not least, the salt effect was examined on ct-DNA binding with TXCH2COOH. The results of the experiments indicated that the groove binding was strengthened by NaCl whereas in the high NaCl concentration, the binding ability of TXCH2COOH to ct-DNA was inversely affected.

Abstract
A sensitive resonance Rayleigh light scattering (RLS) assay for alpinetin was developed based on alpinetin-modified gold nanorods (AuNRs). Alpinetin could interact with AuNRs and formed a new assembly by electrostatic attraction. In pH 7.4 Tris-HCl buffer solution, the assembly of alpinetin-AuNRs showed a sensitive RLS signal. Under optimum conditions, the magnitude of enhanced RLS intensity (ΔIRLS ) was proportional to the concentration of alpinetin over the range 0.027-3.24 μg ml-1 , with a detection limit of 1.79 ng ml-1 (by 3σ). The developed RLS method was successfully applied to the detection of alpinetin in real or synthesized samples. Alpinetin recoveries were 90.4-108.7% with an RSD of 0.82-2.9% (n = 5) for Alpinia katsumadai samples, and 95.1-103.7% with an RSD of 0.28-3.9% (n = 5) for synthesized samples. The results showed that this new approach was convenient, reliable and sensitive.

Abstract
The binding nature of amphiphilic drugs viz. promethazine hydrochloride (PMT) and adiphenine hydrochloride (ADP), with human hemoglobin (Hb) was unraveled by fluorescence, absorbance, time resolved fluorescence, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and circular dichroism (CD) spectral techniques in combination with molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulation methods. The steady state fluorescence spectra indicated that both PMT and ADP quenches the fluorescence of Hb through static quenching mechanism which was further confirmed by time resolved fluorescence spectra. The UV-Vis spectroscopy suggested ground state complex formation. The activation energy (Ea) was observed more in the case of Hb-ADP than Hb-PMT interaction system. The FRET result indicates the high probability of energy transfer from β Trp37 residue of Hb to the PMT (r=2.02nm) and ADP (r=2.33nm). The thermodynamic data reveal that binding of PMT with Hb are exothermic in nature involving hydrogen bonding and van der Waal interaction whereas in the case of ADP hydrophobic forces play the major role and binding process is endothermic in nature. The CD results show that both PMT and ADP, induced secondary structural changes of Hb and unfold the protein by losing a large helical content while the effect is more pronounced with ADP. Additionally, we also utilized computational approaches for deep insight into the binding of these drugs with Hb and the results are well matched with our experimental results.

Abstract
In vitro refolding of denatured protein and the influence of the alkyl chain on the refolding of a protein were tested using long chain imidazolium chloride salts, 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium chloride [C8mim][Cl], and 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [C10mim][Cl]. The horse heart cytochrome c (h-cyt c) was denatured by urea and guanidinium hydrochloride (GdnHCl), as well as by base-induced denaturation at pH 13, to provide a broad overview of the overall refolding behavior. The variation in the alkyl chain of the ionic liquids (ILs) showed a profound effect on the refolding of denatured h-cyt c. The ligand-induced refolding was correlated to understand the mechanism of the conformational stability of proteins in aqueous solutions of ILs. The results showed that the long chain ILs having the [C8mim]+ and [C10mim]+ cations promote the refolding of alkali-denatured h-cyt c. The IL having the [C10mim]+ cation efficiently refolded the alkali-denatured h-cyt c with the formation of the MG state, whereas the IL having the [C8mim]+ cation, which is known to be compatible for protein stability, shows slight refolding and forms a different transition state. The lifetime results show successful refolding of alkaline-denatured h-cyt c by both of the ILs, however, more refolding was observed in the case of [C10mim][Cl], and this was correlated with the fast and medium lifetimes (τ1 and τ2) obtained, which show an increase accompanied by an increase in secondary structure. The hydrophobic interactions plays an important role in the refolding of chemically and alkali-denatured h-cyt c by long chain imidazolium ILs. The formation of the MG state by [C10mim][Cl] was also confirmed, as some regular structure exists far below the CMC of IL. The overall results suggested that the [C10mim]+ cation bound to the unfolded h-cyt c triggers its refolding by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions that stabilize the MG state.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism and binding mode of capecitabine with ctDNA was extensively investigated using docking and molecular dynamics simulations, fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, DNA thermal denaturation studies, and viscosity measurements. The possible binding mode and acting forces on the combination between capecitabine and DNA had been predicted through molecular simulation. Results indicated that capecitabine could relatively locate stably in the G-C base-pairs-rich DNA minor groove by hydrogen bond and several weaker nonbonding forces. Fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetime measurements confirmed that the quenching was static caused by ground state complex formation. This phenomenon indicated the formation of a complex between capecitabine and ctDNA. Fluorescence data showed that the binding constants of the complex were approximately 2 × 104 M-1. Calculated thermodynamic parameters suggested that hydrogen bond was the main force during binding, which were consistent with theoretical results. Moreover, CD spectroscopy, DNA melting studies, and viscosity measurements corroborated a groove binding mode of capecitabine with ctDNA. This binding had no effect on B-DNA conformation.

Abstract
Albumin, the major serum protein, plays a variety of functions, including binding and transporting endogenous and exogenous ligands. Its molecular structure is sensitive to different environmental modifiers, among which glucose is one of the most significant. In vivo albumin glycation occurs under physiological conditions, but it is increased in diabetes. Since bovine serum albumin (BSA) may serve as a model protein in in vitro experiments, we aimed to investigate the impact of glucose-mediated BSA glycation on the binding capacity towards gliclazide, as well as the ability of this drug to prevent glycation of the BSA molecule. To reflect normo- and hyperglycemia, the conditions of the glycation process were established. Structural changes of albumin after interaction with gliclazide (0-14μM) were determined using fluorescence quenching and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Moreover, thermodynamic parameters as well as energy transfer parameters were determined. Calculated Stern-Volmer quenching constants, as well as binding constants for the BSA-gliclazide complex, were lower for the glycated form of albumin than for the unmodified protein. The largest, over 2-fold, decrease in values of binding parameters was observed for the sample with 30mM of glucose, reflecting the poorly controlled diabetic state, which indicates that the degree of glycation had a critical influence on binding with gliclazide. In contrast to significant changes in the tertiary structure of BSA upon binding with gliclazide, only slight changes in the secondary structure were observed, which was reflected by about a 3% decrease of the α-helix content of glycated BSA (regardless of glucose concentration) in comparison to unmodified BSA. The presence of gliclazide during glycation did not affect its progress. The results of this study indicate that glycation significantly changed the binding ability of BSA towards gliclazide and the scale of these changes depended on glucose concentration. It may have a direct impact on the free drug fraction and its pharmacokinetic behavior, including the risk of hypoglycemic episodes or unexpected interactions with other ligands. The use of BSA in examining binding effects upon glycation seems to be good model for preliminary research and may be used to identify a potential drug response in a diabetic state.

Abstract
We report a structure of ferrocene-pyrene conjugate (1) comprising electro and photo-active dual-signaling units. In particular, 1 upon interaction with Cu(II), displays selectively one-photon fluorescence quenching, but it shows two-photon absorption (TPA) cross-section 1230 GM (at 780 nm). Further, 1 displayed two irreversible oxidative waves at 0.39 V and 0.80 V (vs Ag/AgCl), in the electrochemical analysis which upon addition of Cu2+, led to the negative potential shift in both the oxidative waves to appear at 0.25 V and 0.68 V. The triple mode changes in presence of Cu(II) suggesting the possible application of 1 for the detection of Cu(II) in aqueous media. Graphical Abstract.

Abstract
In this study, human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant protein of blood plasma, was modified with varying concentrations of peroxynitrite. The peroxynitrite-induced changes in HSA was monitored by spectroscopy, SDS-PAGE, 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid (ANS), thermal denaturation studies, and matrix-assisted laser desorption/inonization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Aggregate formation was studied by thioflavin T binding and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated formation of 3-nitrotyrosine, 6-nitrotryptophan, dityrosine, and carbonyls in modified samples and showed retarded mobility in SDS-polyacrylamide gel. Reduction in α-helicity and surface protein hydrophobicity confirmed the secondary and tertiary structure alterations in peroxynitrite-modified-HSA. Also, attachment of nitro group and increase in melting temperature was observed in modified sample. Furthermore, significant enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of ThT upon binding with peroxynitrite-modified-HSA and images under scanning electron microscope are suggestive of protein aggregation. It is, therefore, speculated that HSA modified by endogenously formed peroxynitrite might act as a trigger for nitration/aggregation and suggested the role of peroxynitrite-modified-HSA in SLE.
