Abstract
Corallopyronin A (CorA), a natural product antibiotic of Corallococcus coralloides, inhibits the bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. It is active against the essential Wolbachia endobacteria of filarial nematodes, preventing development, causing sterility and killing adult worms. CorA is being developed to treat the neglected tropical diseases onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis caused by Wolbachia-containing filariae. For this, we have completed standard Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicity (ADMET) studies. In Caco-2 assays, CorA had good adsorption values, predicting good transport from the intestines, but may be subject to active efflux. In fed-state simulated human intestinal fluid (pH 5.0), CorA half-life was >139 minutes, equivalent to the stability in buffer (pH 7.4). CorA plasma-stability was >240 minutes, with plasma protein binding >98% in human, mouse, rat, dog, mini-pig and monkey plasma. Clearance in human and dog liver microsomes was low (35.2 and 42 µl/min/mg, respectively). CorA was mainly metabolized via phase I reactions, i.e., oxidation, and to a minimal extent via phase II reactions. In contrast to rifampicin, CorA does not induce CYP3A4 resulting in a lower drug-drug-interaction potential. Apart from inhibition of CYP2C9, no impact of CorA on enzymes of the CYP450 system was detected. Off-target profiling resulted in three hits (inhibition/activation) for the A3 and PPARγ receptors and COX1 enzyme; thus, potential drug-drug interactions could occur with antidiabetic medications, COX2 inhibitors, angiotensin AT1 receptor antagonists, vitamin K-antagonists, and antidepressants. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies in Mongolian gerbils and rats demonstrated excellent intraperitoneal and oral bioavailability (100%) with fast absorption and high distribution in plasma. No significant hERG inhibition was detected and no phototoxicity was seen. CorA did not induce gene mutations in bacteria (Ames test) nor chromosomal damage in human lymphocytes (micronucleus test). Thus, CorA possesses an acceptable in vitro early ADMET profile; supported by previous in vivo experiments in mice, rats and Mongolian gerbils in which all animals tolerated CorA daily administration for 7-28 days. The non-GLP package will guide selection and planning of regulatory-conform GLP models prior to a first-into-human study.

Abstract
Despite the fact that classic autograft is the gold standard material for periodontal plastic surgery, it has some drawbacks, including the need for a second surgical site and the scarcity of palatal donor tissue. However, only a few research works on the manufacturing of bioengineered intraoral connective tissue grafts have been conducted. In this work, porous bovine serum albumin methacryloyl/gelatin methacryloyl (BG) biohybrid scaffolds were developed for super-elasticity, shape recovery, suturability for persistent stability, sufficient scaffolding function, and convenient manipulating characteristics to fabricate an intraoral graft substitute with superb stability to resist frequent dynamic forces caused by functional movement (speaking, masticating, and swallowing). Furthermore, in a 3D cell culture assay, BG scaffolds demonstrated excellent cell adhesion and proliferation of L929 cells. In addition, the BG scaffolds were able to release Ibuprofen in a controlled manner for postoperative recovery. The use of a low-cost, optimized cryogelation technique for functional biomacromolecules offers up new possibilities to develop promising scaffolds for dental clinical settings.

Ibuprofen Favors Binding of Amyloid-β Peptide to Its Depot, Serum Albumin. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23116168.

Abstract
The deposition of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) in the brain is a critical event in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This Aβ deposition could be prevented by directed enhancement of Aβ binding to its natural depot, human serum albumin (HSA). Previously, we revealed that specific endogenous ligands of HSA improve its affinity to monomeric Aβ. We show here that an exogenous HSA ligand, ibuprofen (IBU), exerts the analogous effect. Plasmon resonance spectroscopy data evidence that a therapeutic IBU level increases HSA affinity to monomeric Aβ40/Aβ42 by a factor of 3–5. Using thioflavin T fluorescence assay and transmission electron microcopy, we show that IBU favors the suppression of Aβ40 fibrillation by HSA. Molecular docking data indicate partial overlap between the IBU/Aβ40-binding sites of HSA. The revealed enhancement of the HSA–Aβ interaction by IBU and the strengthened inhibition of Aβ fibrillation by HSA in the presence of IBU could contribute to the neuroprotective effects of the latter, previously observed in mouse and human studies of AD.

Abstract
Oligochitosan, a low molecular weight derivative of the cationic biopolymer, chitosan, currently shows a great potential of application as a biodegradable non-toxic stimuli-sensitive drug carrier. This paper aimed to elucidate the thermoresponsive potential of oligochitosan and the temperature-controlled drug binding and release to shed light on oligochitosan potential in stimuli-responsive drug delivery. Mechanisms of thermoresponsive behavior of oligochitosan induced by β-glycerophosphate (GP) were investigated using ITC, DSC, and DLS. Upon heating, the aqueous oligochitosan solution underwent a cooperative transition of the microphase separation type resulting in the formation of stable nano-sized particles. Energetics of the GP-oligochitosan interaction (evaluated by ITC) revealed a positive enthalpy of the GP binding to oligochitosan, which pointed to a notable contribution of dehydration and the related rearrangement of the polysaccharide hydration shell. Energetics of the thermal phase transition of oligochitosan was investigated by DSC upon variation of the solvent dielectric constant and GP concentration. The dependences of the transition parameters on these variables were determined and used for the analysis of the oligochitosan thermoresponsivity mechanism. The binding of ibuprofen to the thermotropic oligochitosan nanogel particles and its release from them were evaluated under near-physiological conditions. Relevantly, the oligochitosan nanoparticles surpassed some reference macromolecular adsorbers by the affinity for the drug and by the delayed release kinetics.

Abstract
Every day, hundreds of millions of people worldwide take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), often in conjunction with multiple other medications. In the bloodstream, NSAIDs are mostly bound to serum albumin (SA). We report the crystal structures of equine serum albumin complexed with four NSAIDs (ibuprofen, ketoprofen, etodolac, and nabumetone) and the active metabolite of nabumetone (6-methoxy-2-naphthylacetic acid, 6-MNA). These compounds bind to seven drug-binding sites on SA. These sites are generally well-conserved between equine and human SAs, but ibuprofen binds to both SAs in two drug-binding sites, only one of which is common. We also compare the binding of ketoprofen by equine SA to binding of it by bovine and leporine SAs. Our comparative analysis of known SA complexes with FDA-approved drugs clearly shows that multiple medications compete for the same binding sites, indicating possibilities for undesirable physiological effects caused by drug-drug displacement or competition with common metabolites. We discuss the consequences of NSAID binding to SA in a broader scientific and medical context, particularly regarding achieving desired therapeutic effects based on an individual's drug regimen.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative process characterized by the accumulation of extracellular deposits of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ), which induces neuronal death. Monomeric Aβ is not toxic but tends to aggregate into β-sheets that are neurotoxic. Therefore to prevent or delay AD onset and progression one of the main therapeutic approaches would be to impair Aβ assembly into oligomers and fibrils and to promote disaggregation of the preformed aggregate. Albumin is the most abundant protein in the cerebrospinal fluid and it was reported to bind Aβ impeding its aggregation. In a previous work we identified a 35-residue sequence of clusterin, a well-known protein that binds Aβ, that is highly similar to the C-terminus (CTerm) of albumin. In this work, the docking experiments show that the average binding free energy of the CTerm-Aβ1-42 simulations was significantly lower than that of the clusterin-Aβ1-42 binding, highlighting the possibility that the CTerm retains albumin's binding properties. To validate this observation, we performed in vitro structural analysis of soluble and aggregated 1 μM Aβ1-42 incubated with 5 μM CTerm, equimolar to the albumin concentration in the CSF. Reversed-phase chromatography and electron microscopy analysis demonstrated a reduction of Aβ1-42 aggregates when the CTerm was present. Furthermore, we treated a human neuroblastoma cell line with soluble and aggregated Aβ1-42 incubated with CTerm obtaining a significant protection against Aβ-induced neurotoxicity. These in silico and in vitro data suggest that the albumin CTerm is able to impair Aβ aggregation and to promote disassemble of Aβ aggregates protecting neurons.

Abstract
The secretion of insulin from β-cells depends on extracellular factors, in particular glucose and other small molecules, some of which act on G-protein-coupled receptors. Fatty acids (FAs) have been discussed as exogenous secretagogues of insulin for decades, especially after the FA receptor GPR40 (G-protein-coupled receptor 40) was discovered. However, the role of FAs as endogenous signaling factors has not been investigated until now. In the present work, we demonstrate that lowering endogenous FA levels in β-cell medium by stringent washing or by the application of FA-free (FAF) BSA immediately reduced glucose-induced oscillations of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i oscillations) in MIN6 cells and mouse primary β-cells, as well as insulin secretion. Mass spectrometry confirmed BSA-mediated removal of FAs, with palmitic, stearic, oleic, and elaidic acid being the most abundant species. [Ca2+]i oscillations in MIN6 cells recovered when BSA was replaced by buffer or as FA levels in the supernatant were restored. This was achieved by recombinant lipase-mediated FA liberation from membrane lipids, by the addition of FA-preloaded FAF-BSA, or by the photolysis of cell-impermeant caged FAs. Our combined data support the hypothesis of FAs as essential endogenous signaling factors for β-cell activity and insulin secretion.

Abstract
Human serum albumin possesses multiple binding sites and transports a wide range of ligands that include the anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen. A complete map of the binding sites of ibuprofen in albumin is difficult to obtain in traditional experiments, because of the structural adaptability of this protein in accommodating small ligands. In this work, we provide a set of predictions covering the geometry, affinity of binding and protonation state for the pharmaceutically most active form (S-isomer) of ibuprofen to albumin, by using absolute binding free energy calculations in combination with classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and molecular docking. The most favorable binding modes correctly reproduce several experimentally identified binding locations, which include the two Sudlow's drug sites (DS2 and DS1) and the fatty acid binding sites 6 and 2 (FA6 and FA2). Previously unknown details of the binding conformations were revealed for some of them, and formerly undetected binding modes were found in other protein sites. The calculated binding affinities exhibit trends which seem to agree with the available experimental data, and drastically degrade when the ligand is modeled in a protonated (neutral) state, indicating that ibuprofen associates with albumin preferentially in its charged form. These findings provide a detailed description of the binding of ibuprofen, help to explain a wide range of results reported in the literature in the last decades, and demonstrate the possibility of using simulation methods to predict ligand binding to albumin.

Abstract
Ibuprofen is one of the most used anti-inflammatory drugs, and it is transported in the blood by human serum albumin, a major plasmatic protein with a peculiar adaptability in the binding of several different ligands. We have characterized the interaction between albumin and ibuprofen, either in racemic mixture, or in the S(+) and R(-) enantiomeric forms, by using differential scanning calorimetry, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulation. The results show that increasing concentrations of ibuprofen (up to sixfold drug/protein molar ratio) improve the protein resistance to thermal unfolding without altering the secondary structure. Deconvolution of the calorimetric thermal profiles at different albumin/ibuprofen molar ratios demonstrates a selective stability of the protein domains where the binding sites of the drug are localized. At the highest ibuprofen concentration, the melting temperature increased by about 10°C with respect to the drug-free protein, whereas the unfolding enthalpy maintains an almost constant value. Furthermore, the degree of protein stabilization depends upon the chirality of the drug, and the R(-) enantiomer is more effective compared to the S(+) form. The stability is supported by molecular dynamics simulations, showing that ibuprofen maintains a stable coordination in the most favorable binding sites, leading to a more compact protein structure at high temperature. The overall results attest that the binding of ibuprofen determines on albumin a stereoselective and domain-specific stabilization with a predominantly entropic character, contributing to clarify significant aspects of the molecular mechanism of protein/drug interaction.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2010; 17:714-720. [PMID: 20171066 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2010.01.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2009] [Revised: 12/18/2009] [Accepted: 01/25/2010] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
Thymoquinone (TQ) is the main constituent of Nigella sativa essential oil which shows promising in vitro and in vivo antineoplastic growth inhibition against various tumor cell lines. Because of the increasing interest to test it in pre-clinical and clinical researches for assessing its health benefits, we here evaluate the interactions between TQ and human serum albumin (HSA), a possible carrier of this drug in vivo. Binding to HSA was studied using different spectroscopic techniques. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies suggest that the association between TQ and HSA does not affect the secondary structure of HSA. Using fluorescence spectroscopy, one mole of TQ was found to bind one mole of HSA with a binding constant of 2.39 +/- 0.2 10(4)M(-1). At 25 degrees C (pH 7.4), van't Hoff's enthalpy and entropy that accompany the binding were found to be -10.24 kJ/mol(-1) and 45 J/mol(-1)K(-1) respectively. The thermodynamic analysis of the TQ-HSA complex formation shows that the binding process is enthalpy driven and spontaneous, and that hydrophobic interactions are the predominant intermolecular forces stabilizing the complex. Furthermore, displacement experiments using warfarin and ibuprofen indicate that TQ could bind to site I of HSA, which is also in agreement with the results of the molecular modeling study.

Ibuprofen modulates allosterically NO dissociation from ferrous nitrosylated human serum heme-albumin by binding to three sites. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2009; 387:83-6.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is a monomeric allosteric protein. Here, the effect of ibuprofen on denitrosylation kinetics (k(off)) and spectroscopic properties of HSA-heme-Fe(II)-NO is reported. The k(off) value increases from (1.4+/-0.2)x10(-4)s(-1), in the absence of the drug, to (9.5+/-1.2)x10(-3)s(-1), in the presence of 1.0x10(-2)M ibuprofen, at pH 7.0 and 10.0 degrees C. From the dependence of k(off) on the drug concentration, values of the dissociation equilibrium constants for ibuprofen binding to HSA-heme-Fe(II)-NO (K(1)=(3.1+/-0.4)x10(-7)M, K(2)=(1.7+/-0.2)x10(-4)M, and K(3)=(2.2+/-0.2)x10(-3)M) were determined. The K(3) value corresponds to the value of the dissociation equilibrium constant for ibuprofen binding to HSA-heme-Fe(II)-NO determined by monitoring drug-dependent absorbance spectroscopic changes (H=(2.6+/-0.3)x10(-3)M). Present data indicate that ibuprofen binds to the FA3-FA4 cleft (Sudlow's site II), to the FA6 site, and possibly to the FA2 pocket, inducing the hexa-coordination of HSA-heme-Fe(II)-NO and triggering the heme-ligand dissociation kinetics.

Abstract
Many of today's drug discovery programs use high-throughput screening methods that rely on quick evaluations of protein activity to rank potential chemical leads. By monitoring biologically relevant protein-ligand interactions, NMR can provide a means to validate these discovery leads and to optimize the drug discovery process. NMR-based screens typically use a change in chemical shift or line width to detect a protein-ligand interaction. However, the relatively low throughput of current NMR screens and their high demand on sample requirements generally makes it impractical to collect complete binding curves to measure the affinity for each compound in a large and diverse chemical library. As a result, NMR ligand screens are typically limited to identifying candidates that bind to a protein and do not give any estimate of the binding affinity. To address this issue, a methodology has been developed to rank binding affinities for ligands based on NMR screens that use 1D (1)H NMR line-broadening experiments. This method was demonstrated by using it to estimate the dissociation equilibrium constants for twelve ligands with the protein human serum albumin (HSA). The results were found to give good agreement with previous affinities that have been reported for these same ligands with HSA.

Abstract
Although displacement from plasma protein binding (dPB) is usually of little clinical significance, it should be taken into account when interpreting changes in total plasma concentrations of drugs subject to metabolically based drug-drug interactions (mDDI). The aim of this study was to develop an approach to predict changes in the free fractions (fu) of pairs of drugs that compete for plasma binding, knowing their binding affinity constants, and to consider the implications of associated concentration- and time-dependence of such changes with respect to drug exposure. Experimental fu values of valproic acid and phenytoin in the presence of ibuprofen, diflunisal, or naproxen were predicted successfully (within 0.99- to 1.36-fold) by the model. In addition, the simulation of time-dependent changes in fu of valproic acid following administration of ibuprofen indicated different extents of dPB during 'first-pass' through the liver after oral absorption and on systemic recirculation. To understand the impact of the time-dependent change in fu, a full physiologically based pharmacokinetic model, that accounts for concentration-time profile of displacee and displacer and their mutual effect on each other, is required. The approach developed in this study is a first step towards the development of such a model.

Abstract
The interaction of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, niflumic acid (NFA), with human serum albumin (HSA) has been investigated by (19)F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. A (19)F NMR spectrum of NFA in a buffered (pH 7.4) solution of NaCl (0.1 mol L(-1)) contained a single sharp signal of its CF(3) group 14.33 ppm from the internal reference 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol. Addition of 0.6 mmol L(-1) HSA to the NFA buffer solution caused splitting of the CF(3) signal into two broadened signals, shifted to the lower fields of 14.56 and 15.06 ppm, with an approximate intensity ratio of 1:3. Denaturation of HSA by addition of 3.0 mol L(-1) guanidine hydrochloride (GU) restored a single sharp signal of CF(3) at 14.38 ppm, indicating complete liberation of NFA from HSA as a result of its denaturation. These results suggest that the binding is reversible and occurs in at least two HSA regions. Competitive (19)F NMR experiments using warfarin, dansyl-L: -asparagine, and benzocaine (site I ligands), and L: -tryptophan and ibuprofen (site II ligands) revealed that NFA binds to site I at two different regions, Ia and Ib, in the ratio 1:3. By use of (19)F NMR with NFA as an (19)F NMR probe the nonfluorinated site I-binding drugs sulfobromophthalein and iophenoxic acid were also found to bind sites Ia and Ib, respectively. These results illustrate the usefulness and convenience of (19)F NMR for investigation of the HSA binding of both fluorinated and nonfluorinated drugs.

Abstract
The triplet excited states of (S)- and (R)-flurbiprofen (FBP) have been used as reporters for the microenvironments experienced within the binding sites of human and bovine serum albumins. Regression analysis of triplet decay provides valuable information on the degree of protection that these excited states are afforded from attack by a second FBP molecule, oxygen, or other reagents. The multiexponential fitting of these decays can be satisfactorily correlated with the distribution of the drug among the two binding sites and its presence as the noncomplexed form in the bulk solution. This assignment has been confirmed by using (S)-ibuprofen or capric acid as selective site II replacement probes. Triplet lifetimes and site occupancy are sensitive to the type of serum albumin employed (human versus bovine). Finally, the binding behaviour of (S)- and (R)-FBP exhibits little stereoselectivity.

Abstract
MS-275 (MS-27-275; 3-pyridylmethyl-N-[4-[(2-aminophenyl)-carbamoyl]-benzyl-carbamate) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor under clinical development as an anticancer agent. Here, we examined the role of protein binding as a possible determinant of the pharmacokinetic behavior of MS-275. The distribution of MS-275 in plasma was studied in vitro using equilibrium dialysis and ex vivo in five cancer patients receiving the drug orally at a dose of 10 mg/m(2). The dialysis method uses a tracer amount of [G-(3)H]MS-275 on a 96-well microdialysis plate with a 5-kDa cut-off membrane, and requires 250 microl sample. The time to equilibrium was established to be within 5 h, and the mean unbound fraction of MS-275 (f (u)) over a presumed therapeutic concentration range in healthy volunteer human plasma was 0.188 +/- 0.0075 as compared to 0.168 +/- 0.0144 in cancer patients. The binding was concentration-independent, indicating a low affinity, possibly non-specific and non-saturable process. MS-275 was found to bind in decreasing order to plasma > alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein > albumin. Among 19 tested drugs, a slightly increased f (u) was observed in the presence of only ibuprofen (f (u), 0.236 +/- 0.001) and metoclopramide (f (u), 0.270 +/- 0.042), suggesting weakly competitive displacement from protein-binding sites (P < 0.01). Compared to humans, f (u) was significantly higher in plasma from mouse (0.376), rat (0.393), rabbit (0.355), dog (0.436), and pig (0.439) (P < 0.01), which may explain, in part, the species-dependent pharmacokinetic profile of MS-275 observed previously.

Abstract
The usefulness of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model protein for testing NMR methods for the study of protein-ligand interactions is discussed. Isothermal titration calorimetry established the binding affinity and stoichiometry of the specific binding site for L-tryptophan, D-tryptophan, naproxen, ibuprofen, salicylic acid and warfarin. The binding affinities of the same ligands determined by NMR methods are universally weaker (larger KD). This is because the NMR methods are susceptible to interference from additional non-specific binding. The L-tryptophan-BSA and naproxen-BSA systems were the best behaved model systems.

Abstract
The effects of (R)- and (S)-ibuprofen on the binding of benzodiazepines to human serum albumin (HSA) were examined by biointeraction chromatography. The displacement of benzodiazepines from HSA by (R)- and (S)-ibuprofen was found to involve negative allosteric interactions (or possible direct competition) for most (R)-benzodiazepines. However, (S)-benzodiazepines gave positive or negative allosteric effects and direct competition when displaced by (R)- or (S)-ibuprofen. Association equilibrium constants and coupling constants measured for these effects indicated that they involved two classes of ibuprofen binding regions (i.e., low- and high-affinity sites). Based on these results, a model was proposed to explain the binding of benzodiazepines to HSA and their interactions with ibuprofen. This model gave good agreement with previous reports examining the binding of benzodiazepines to HSA.

Abstract
Chemical proteomics aims to characterize all of the proteins in the proteome with respect to their function, which is associated with their interaction with other molecules. We propose the identification of a subproteomic library of expressed proteins whose native structures are typified by the presence of hydrophobic surface sites, which are often involved in interactions with small molecules, membrane lipids, and other proteins, pertaining to their functions. We demonstrate that soluble globular proteins with hydrophobic surface sites can be detected selectively by staining on an electrophoretic gel run under nondenaturing conditions. The application of these staining techniques may help elucidate new catalytic, transport, and regulatory functionalities in complex proteomic screenings.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance-based biosensors can be used to directly measure the binding of small molecules to albumin. We studied 12 drugs with different molecular masses and affinities for albumin to illustrate the benefits of the technology. To examine both high- and low-affinity sites on the protein, each drug was assayed across a 10,000-fold concentration range. The affinity constants determined from the biosensor assay corresponded with affinities determined by other methods. We expanded the utility of the biosensor technology by developing protocols to characterize drug displacement from albumin. Finally, we also compared how a representative panel of drugs bound albumins from 14 species. The results illustrate how biosensors can provide detailed information about the identification and affinity of a drug's primary binding site on albumin.

Abstract
In spite of the large amount of plasma protein binding data for drugs, it is not obvious and there is no clear consensus among different disciplines how to deal with this parameter in multidimensional lead optimization strategies. In this work, we have made a comprehensive study on the importance of plasma protein binding and the influencing factors in order to get new insights for this molecular property. Our analysis of the distribution of percentage plasma protein binding among therapeutic drugs showed that no general rules for protein binding can be derived, except for the class of chemotherapeutics, where a clear trend towards lower binding could be observed. For the majority of indication areas, however, empirical rules are missing. We present here an extensive list of multiply determined primary association constants for binding to human serum albumin (HSA) for 138 compounds from the literature. Correlating these binding constants with the percentage fraction of protein bound showed that the percentage data above 90%, corresponding to a binding constant below 6 microM, are of insufficient accuracy. Furthermore, it could be demonstrated that the lipophilicity of drugs, traditionally felt to dominate binding to HSA, is not the only relevant descriptor. Here, we report a generic model for the prediction of drug association constants to HSA, which uses a pharmacophoric similarity concept and partial least square analysis (PLS) to construct a quantitative structure-activity relationship. It is able to single out the submicromolar to nanomolar binders, i.e. to differentiate between 99.0 and 99.99% plasma protein binding. Depending on the system, this can be important in medicinal chemistry programs and may together with other computed physicochemical and ADME properties assist in the prioritization of synthetic strategies.

Abstract
Competitive interactions of ochratoxin A (OTA) and several other acidic compounds were utilized to gain insight into the localization of binding sites and the nature of binding interactions between anionic species and human serum albumin (HSA). Depolarization of OTA fluorescence in the presence of a competing anion was used to quantify ligand-protein interactions. The results obtained were rationalized in terms of OTA displacement from its major binding site. Based on their ability to displace OTA, two distinct groups of the anionic ligands were revealed. The first group contained structurally diverse compounds that shared a common binding site in subdomain IIA (Sudlow Site I). The second group consisted of three non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which showed much lower affinity to Site I than the OTA dianion. The major site for these drugs was located in domain III. Fluorescence spectroscopy measurements of OTA, warfarin (WAR) and naproxen (NAP) complexes with recombinant proteins corresponding to the domains of HSA (D1-D3) revealed binding to all domains but with different affinities. The binding constants for OTA and WAR decreased in the series D2z.Gt;D3>D1. In contrast, NAP showed the most favorable interaction with D3 and comparable affinities to the two remaining domains. The OTA binding constant for D2, 7.9 x 10(5) M(-1), was smaller than the largest constant for HSA by a factor of approximately 7. The binding constant for OTA with D3, 1.1 x 10(5) M(-1), was very close to that of the secondary binding site for HSA.

Abstract
Haem binding to human serum albumin (HSA) endows the protein with peculiar spectroscopic properties. Here, the effect of ibuprofen and warfarin on the spectroscopic properties of ferric haem-human serum albumin (ferric HSA-haem) and of ferrous nitrosylated haem-human serum albumin (ferrous HSA-haem-NO) is reported. Ferric HSA-haem is hexa-coordinated, the haem-iron atom being bonded to His105 and Tyr148. Upon drug binding to the warfarin primary site, the displacement of water molecules--buried in close proximity to the haem binding pocket--induces perturbation of the electronic absorbance properties of the chromophore without affecting the coordination number or the spin state of the haem-iron, and the quenching of the 1H-NMR relaxivity. Values of Kd for ibuprofen and warfarin binding to the warfarin primary site of ferric HSA-haem, corresponding to the ibuprofen secondary cleft, are 5.4 +/- 1.1 x 10(-4) m and 2.1 +/- 0.4 x 10(-5) m, respectively. The affinity of ibuprofen and warfarin for the warfarin primary cleft of ferric HSA-haem is lower than that reported for drug binding to haem-free HSA. Accordingly, the Kd value for haem binding to HSA increases from 1.3 +/- 0.2 x 10(-8) m in the absence of drugs to 1.5 +/- 0.2 x 10(-7) m in the presence of ibuprofen and warfarin. Ferrous HSA-haem-NO is a five-coordinated haem-iron system. Drug binding to the warfarin primary site of ferrous HSA-haem-NO induces the transition towards the six-coordinated haem-iron species, the haem-iron atom being bonded to His105. Remarkably, the ibuprofen primary cleft appears to be functionally and spectroscopically uncoupled from the haem site of HSA. Present results represent a clear-cut evidence for the drug-induced shift of allosteric equilibrium(a) of HSA.

Abstract
The effect of ibuprofen enantiomers on the stereoselective binding of 3-acyloxy-1,4-benzodiazepines to human serum albumin (HSA) was studied using both native and Sepharose-immobilized protein. (S)-Lorazepam acetate exhibited considerably enhanced binding, especially in the presence of (+)-(S)-ibuprofen. The phenomenon is an indication of cooperative allosteric interaction between different binding sites during multiple cobinding of two ligands.

Abstract
Binding of ibuprofen (IB) enantiomers to human serum albumin (HSA) was studied using a chiral fluorescent derivatizing reagent, which enabled the measurement of IB enantiomers at a concentration as low 5 x 10(-8) M. Scatchard analyses revealed that there were two classes of binding sites for both enantiomers. For the high affinity site, the number of the binding sites was one for both enantiomers, and the binding constant of R-IB was 2.3-fold greater than that of S-IB. The difference in the affinity at the high affinity site may result in the stereoselective binding of IB enantiomers at therapeutic concentrations. It was confirmed that the high affinity site of IB enantiomers is Site II (diazepam binding site) by using site marker ligands. Also, significant enantiomer-enantiomer interactions were observed in the binding. The binding data were quantitatively analyzed and a binding model with an assumption of competitive interactions only at the high affinity site simulated the binding characteristics of IB enantiomers fairly well.

Abstract
A possible relationship between lipophilicity and binding to human serum albumin was investigated for 11 arylpropionate non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The lipophilic parameter was determined by a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic procedure as the capacity factor (k'). The binding of arylpropionic acids to human serum albumin was studied in vitro by equilibrium dialysis. For each compound, a Scatchard analysis was performed considering two classes of binding sites characterized by high- and low-affinity constants, K1 and K2, respectively. A linear relationship was found between lipophilicity and binding parameters, n1K1 (r = 0.88, P < 0.0005) and n2K2 (r = 0.96, P < 0.0002). These results suggest the role of hydrophobic interactions in the binding of arylpropionic acids to human serum albumin.

Abstract
Simultaneous binding of two drugs to human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated by difference circular dichroism (delta CD) spectroscopy. Phenylbutazone and diazepam were chosen as specific markers for binding areas I (cumarines) and II (indoles), respectively, and their stereospecific interactions with protein were selectively characterized. Displacers were drugs known to specifically bind to areas I (salicylate) and II (racemic ibuprofen). The results indicate two different interaction mechanisms: a direct competition one (diazepam-ibuprofen and phenylbutazone-salicylate) and an indirect competition one (diazepam-salicylate and phenylbutazone-ibuprofen). The two major binding areas on HSA are distinct, but not independent, entities. Finally, the dissociation constants of marker ligands and competitors complexed to HSA were determined by quantitative analysis of CD data.

Abstract
Zonal elution and high-performance affinity chromatography were used to study the different binding characteristics of R- and S-ibuprofen with the protein human serum albumin (HSA). This was done by injecting small amounts of R- and S-ibuprofen onto an immobilized HSA column in the presence of a mobile phase that contained a known concentration of R- or S-ibuprofen as a competing agent. These studies indicated that R- and S-ibuprofen had one common binding site on the immobilized HSA column. In addition, S-ibuprofen had at least one other major binding region. The association equilibrium constant for R-ibuprofen with HSA was found to be 5.3 x 10(5) M-1 at pH 6.9 and 25 degrees C. Under the same conditions, the association constants for S-ibuprofen at its two sites were 1.1 x 10(5) M-1 and 1.2 x 10(5) M-1. The S-ibuprofen sites were present in about a 1:1 ratio and appeared to exhibit some allosteric interactions at high S-ibuprofen concentrations. The chromatographic technique used in this work is a general one which can be adapted for use in studying the interactions of other chiral compounds with either HSA or additional proteins.

Abstract
An affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) method for improving albumin protein separations has been developed. Separation efficiencies for bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA) are dramatically improved by using anti-inflammatory compounds as run buffer additives. The anti-inflammatory drugs used as biospecific ligands to improve the protein separation include ibuprofen (IB), flurbiprofen (FL), and ketoprofen (KE). The binding constants of proteins (BSA and HSA) for the anti-inflammatory ligands (FL and IB) are estimated by ACE and compared to literature values.

Abstract
The plasma protein binding and competitive inhibition parameters of R(-)- and S(+)-ibuprofen were determined in vivo in 12 healthy subjects. Subjects participated in a 4 x 4 Latin square design in which oral solutions of drug were administered as 300 mg R(-)-ibuprofen, 300 mg S(+)-ibuprofen, 300 mg R(-)- + 300 mg S(+)-ibuprofen, and 300 mg R(-)- + 600 mg S(+)-ibuprofen. Unlabeled ibuprofen enantiomers were quantitated using a stereospecific reversed-phase HPLC assay, and plasma protein binding experiments were performed using radiolabeled 14C-enantiomers and an ultrafiltration method at 37C. At therapeutic drug concentrations, the protein binding of each enantiomer was greater than 99%. Furthermore, the binding of ibuprofen enantiomers was stereoselective and mutually competitive, as well as nonlinear. The bound-free data were fitted to a model in which the non-linearity of plasma protein binding and competition between enantiomers for binding sites could be accommodated. There were substantial differences in the affinity of ibuprofen enantiomers for protein binding sites (RP2 = 0.358 +/- 0.185 vs. SP2 = 0.979 +/- 0.501 micrograms/ml; mean +/- SD) but no differences in their binding capacity (RP1 = 160 +/- 86 vs. SP1 = 161 +/- 63 micrograms/ml). Although statistically significant, the differences in competitive inhibition parameters were more modest (SKI = 0.661 +/- 0.363 vs. RKI = 0.436 +/- 0.210 micrograms/ml). As a result, the intrinsic binding (i.e., P1/P2) of R(-)-ibuprofen was greater than S(+)-ibuprofen, and the unbound fraction was significantly greater for S-enantiomer vs. R-enantiomer after a given dose of R-ibuprofen or racemate.

Abstract
An equilibrium dialysis method was established in order to investigate possible relationships between free drug concentrations of piroxicam and naproxen and clinical events. Therefore the influence of variations in pH, phosphate concentration and sodium azide concentration of the dialysis buffer on the free concentrations of piroxicam and naproxen was investigated. Piroxicam was found to have a pH-dependent protein binding. Therefore a good control of pH during the dialysis process is necessary. This has been achieved by increasing the buffer capacity of the dialysis buffer, by adding an antibacterial agent to the dialysis buffer and by cleansing the dialysis cells with 70% ethanol before use to prevent bacterial growth. Addition of 0.03% sodium azide as an antibacterial agent and the use of a 0.09 mol/l phosphate buffer gave good pH control. A method to correct for deviations of pH in measurements of free concentrations of piroxicam by a simple mathematical correction has been found. As naproxen was found to have a protein binding independent of pH, a pH-correction is not necessary for this drug. Standardized conditions in determination of protein binding of drugs by equilibrium dialysis are important, as composition of the dialysis buffer and pH of plasma compartment at equilibrium may influence the free concentration measurements. Comparisons of data from experiments using different methods are therefore difficult; the importance of pH-control is stressed. With the methods used in the present investigation, equilibrium dialysis in connection with HPLC, the coefficients of variation for piroxicam and naproxen free concentrations are 5.5% and 7.4%, respectively.

Abstract
The binding to human serum albumin of two anti-inflammatory drugs, indomethacin and indoprofen, has been studied by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. The results shown indicate that the binding of both drugs--but more notably of indoprofen--is very sensitive to variations of the environmental conditions. The binding is also dependent upon limited modifications in the tertiary structure of the protein. The evidences shown tend to indicate that these two phenomena are related, and that the binding is permitted under conditions of a relatively open structure of the protein molecule.

Abstract
Despite the widespread use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the current number of reported cases of poisoning is small. However, with the introduction of 'over-the-counter' preparations of NSAIDs in some countries (e.g. ibuprofen in the UK and USA) an increased incidence of acute poisoning from this group of drugs can be expected. Conventionally, NSAIDs are divided into the following groups based on their chemical structure: arylpropionic acids, indole and indene acetic acids, heteroarylacetic acids, fenamates, phenylacetic acids, pyrazolones and oxicams. Unless NSAIDs are ingested in substantial overdose, acute poisoning with these agents does not usually result in significant morbidity or mortality. In most cases the clinical features are mild and confined to the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, though acute renal failure, hepatic dysfunction, respiratory depression, coma, convulsions, cardiovascular collapse and cardiac arrest may complicate severe poisoning. Arylpropionic acid derivatives were thought initially to have a low order of toxicity in overdose but, in addition to anticipated gastrointestinal symptoms, headache, tinnitus, hyperventilation, sinus tachycardia, hypoprothrombinaemia, haematuria, proteinuria and acute renal failure have been described. In addition, drowsiness, coma, nystagmus, diplopia, hypothermia, hypotension, respiratory depression and cardiac arrest have been reported in severe cases of poisoning. Oxyphenbutazone and phenylbutazone are considerably more toxic in overdose. Complications of severe poisoning include coma, convulsions, hepatic dysfunction, acute renal failure, sodium and water retention, haematuria, cardiovascular collapse, respiratory alkalosis, metabolic acidosis, hypoprothrombinaemia and thrombocytopenia. In contrast, indomethacin appears to be much less toxic. In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms, indomethacin taken in overdose induces headache, tinnitus, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, confusion, disorientation and restlessness. Only 1 case of acute sulindac poisoning has been reported in the literature. A 16-year-old boy was admitted with hypokalaemia (2.2 mmol/L), transient granulocytosis and 'scanty' haematemesis after ingesting 12 g sulindac. No case of acute tolmetin poisoning have been reported. The fenamates (flufenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, mefenamic acid, tolfenamic acid) are, with the exception of mefenamic acid, not as widely prescribed as other groups of NSAIDs. In overdose, mefenamic acid may result in nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, muscle twitching, convulsions and coma.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Fifteen normal male volunteers received 400, 800, and 1200 mg doses of ibuprofen as 1, 2, or 3 tablets, respectively, in crossover fashion, then 420 mg in solution form during the fourth week. Plasma concentration of ibuprofen was measured by an HPLC method. Individual subject concentration-time (C,t) data following the solution were analyzed by two different methods, and results unequivocally indicated the open two compartment model with first order absorption. However, the computer fitting of both arithmetic and geometric mean concentrations led to a different model. A method was developed to obtain absorption data (fraction of drug absorbed, Fa, versus time) for a multicompartmental system from oral data alone, without intravenous data. The method assumes that Vp is constant intrasubject and that absorption is complete following administration of both the solution and tablets. The method was successfully applied to the ibuprofen tablet data. It was shown also that such a method is necessary to obtain ibuprofen absorption data since intrasubject variation of the microscopic rate constants k12, k21, and kel (as reflected by the intrasubject variation of the hybrid rate parameters lambda 1 and lambda 2 or beta and alpha) is of the same order of magnitude as intersubject variation. Absorption of ibuprofen from tablets was shown not to be simple first order as for the solution. The absorption profiles following one tablet were S-shaped, while those following 2 or 3 tablets had partial linear segments indicating zero order absorption.

Abstract
Plasma protein binding of ibuprofen was measured by equilibrium dialysis on 406 plasma samples collected from 15 normal volunteers following doses of 400, 800, and 1200 mg of ibuprofen as tablets (N = 102, 100, 104, respectively) and 420 mg as an aqueous solution (N = 100). Individual subject bound concentration at dialysis equilibrium (Cbd) vs. free concentration at dialysis equilibrium (Cfd) were well fitted via computer to the Scatchard equation with one class of binding sites. The binding capacity averaged 1231 microM (range 848-1658 microM), and the association constant averaged 1.76 X 10(5) M-1 (range 1.15 X 10(5) to 2.73 X 10(5) M-1). Distributional analysis was performed on the free fraction (fd) and bound/free ratios (Cbd/Cfd = 1/fd-1) at dialysis equilibrium for each treatment. Using pooled data of all four treatments, distributional analysis was also performed on the free fractions (f) and bound/free ratios (Cb/Cf = 1/f-1) corresponding to the plasma drug concentrations in blood as it was withdrawn from the subjects. The bound/free ratios were normally distributed, whereas the distributions of the free fractions were skewed towards higher values.

Abstract
The binding of ibuprofen to human serum albumin, normal plasma and plasma obtained from rheumatoid arthritic patients was studied using the method of ultracentrifugation. It was found that ibuprofen is more strongly bound to normal plasma than to human serum albumin although this result is probably explained by fatty acid contamination of the human serum albumin. The fraction of ibuprofen not bound to normal plasma rose significantly from a value of 0.0128 at an ibuprofen concentration of 2 mg X l-1 to 0.0155 at a concentration of 50 mg X l-1. Ibuprofen was less strongly bound to rheumatoid plasma than to normal plasma but this difference can be accounted for by the difference in albumin concentration between the two plasmas. It was found that salicylic acid can displace ibuprofen from protein binding sites, in vitro, and that this is the probable cause of the pharmacokinetic interaction between the two drugs.
