[PMID: 39270361 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2024.116743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Revised: 08/16/2024] [Accepted: 09/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024]
Abstract
Since its discovery in 1984, the monoamine serotonin (5-HT) has been recognized for its critical role as a neuromodulator in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Recent research reveals that serotonin also significantly influences various neuronal activities. Historically, it was believed that peripheral serotonin, produced by tryptophan hydroxylase in intestinal cells, functioned primarily as a hormone. However, new insights have expanded its known roles, necessitating advanced detection methods. Biosensors have emerged as indispensable tools in biomedical diagnostics, enabling the rapid and minimally invasive detection of target analytes with high spatial and temporal resolution. This review summarizes the progress made in the past decade in developing optical and electrochemical biosensors for serotonin detection. We evaluate various sensing strategies that optimize performance in terms of detection limits, sensitivity, and specificity. The study also explores recent innovations in biosensing technologies utilizing surface-modified electrodes with nanomaterials, including gold, graphite, carbon nanotubes, and metal oxide particles. Applications range from in vivo studies to chemical imaging and diagnostics, highlighting future prospects in the field.

Abstract
Miniaturization and integration of plasmonic nanodevices are fundamentally limited by quantum tunneling, which leads to quantum plasmonics with reduced local E-field intensity. Despite significant efforts devoted to modeling and deterring the detrimental effect of quantum plasmonics, the modulation and application of electron transport through the subnanometer gaps seems rarely exploited due to the limited tunability of conventional quantum materials. Here, we establish a supramolecular plasmonic system made of pillar[5]arene complexes and plasmonic resonators (nanoparticle-on-mirror, NPoM). The supramolecular assemblies significantly enhance the gap conductance of NPoM, which results in a blue-shift of the coupled plasmons. Plasmonic hot-electron transport with laser excitation further modulates the gap plasmons, which are fully reversible and beneficial for enhanced chiroptic sensing. Such a conductive supramolecular plasmonic system not only suggests an optoelectronic switching strategy for charge transfer plasmons but also provides a superior sensing platform for single molecules.

Abstract
Different types of solvents, aromatic and aliphatic, are used in many industrial sectors, and long-term exposure to these solvents can lead to many occupational diseases. Therefore, it is of great importance to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using economic and ergonomic techniques. In this study, two macromolecules based on pillar[5]arene, named P[5]-1 and P[5]-2, were synthesized and applied to the detection of six different environmentally volatile pollutants in industry and laboratories. The thin films of the synthesized macrocycles were coated by using the spin coating technique on a suitable substrate under optimum conditions. All compounds and the prepared thin film surfaces were characterized by NMR, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), elemental analysis, atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and contact angle measurements. All vapor sensing measurements were performed via the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) optical technique, and the responses of the P[5]-1 and P[5]-2 thin-film sensors were calculated with ΔI/Io × 100. The responses of the P[5]-1 and P[5]-2 thin-film sensors to dichloromethane vapor were determined to be 7.17 and 4.11, respectively, while the responses to chloroform vapor were calculated to be 5.24 and 2.8, respectively. As a result, these thin-film sensors showed a higher response to dichloromethane and chloroform vapors than to other harmful vapors. The SPR kinetic data for vapors validated that a nonlinear autoregressive neural network was performed with exogenous input for the best molecular modeling by using normalized reflected light intensity values. It can be clearly seen from the correlation coefficient values that the nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous input artificial neural network (NARX-ANN) model for dichloromethane converged more successfully to the experimental data compared to other gases. The correlation coefficient values of the dichloromethane modeling results were approximately 0.99 and 0.98 for P[5]-1 and P[5]-2 thin-film sensors, respectively.

Abstract
The global surge in bacterial infections, compounded by the alarming escalation of drug-resistant strains, has evolved into a critical public health crisis. Among the challenges posed, biofilms stand out due to their formidable resistance to conventional antibiotics. This review delves into the burgeoning potential of pillar[n]arenes, distinctive macrocyclic host molecules, as promising anti-biofilm agents. The review is structured into two main sections, each dedicated to exploring distinct facets of pillar[n]arene applications. The first section scrutinizes functionalized pillar[n]arenes with a particular emphasis on cationic derivatives. This analysis reveals their significant efficacy in inhibiting biofilm formation, underscoring the pivotal role of specific chemical attributes in combating microbial communities. The second section of the review shifts its focus to inclusion complexes, elucidating how pillar[n]arenes serve as encapsulation platforms for antibiotics. This encapsulation enhances the stability of antibiotics and enables a controlled release, thereby amplifying their antibacterial activity. The examination of inclusion complexes provides valuable insights into the potential synergy between pillar[n]arenes and traditional antibiotics, offering a novel avenue for overcoming biofilm resistance. This comprehensive review highlights the escalating global threat of bacterial infections and the urgent need for innovative strategies to counteract drug-resistant biofilms. The unique properties of pillar[n]arenes, both as functionalized molecules and as inclusion complex hosts, position them as promising candidates in the quest for effective anti-biofilm agents. The exploration of their distinct mechanisms opens new avenues for research and development in the ongoing battle against bacterial infections and biofilm-related health challenges.

Abstract
T4 polynucleotide kinase helps with DNA recombination and repair. In this study, an electrochemical biosensor was developed for a T4 polynucleotide kinase activity assay and inhibitor screening based on phosphate pillar[5]arene and multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposites. The water-soluble pillar[5]arene was employed as the host to complex thionine guest molecules. The substrate DNA with a 5'-hydroxyl group initially self-assembled on the gold electrode surface through chemical adsorption of the thiol group, which was phosphorylated in the presence of T4 polynucleotide kinase. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles served as a bridge to link phosphorylated DNA and phosphate pillar[5]arene and multi-walled carbon nanotube composite due to strong phosphate-Ti4+-phosphate chemistry. Through supramolecular host-guest recognition, thionine molecules were able to penetrate the pillar[5]arene cavity, resulting in an enhanced electrochemical response signal. The electrochemical signal is proportional to the T4 polynucleotide kinase concentration in the range of 10-5 to 15 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 5 × 10-6 U mL-1. It was also effective in measuring HeLa cell lysate-related T4 polynucleotide kinase activity and inhibitor screening. The proposed method offers a unique sensing platform for kinase activity measurement, holding great potential in nucleotide kinase-target drug development, clinical diagnostics, and inhibitor screening.

Abstract
T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) is an important DNA repair-related enzyme that plays a crucial role in DNA recombination, replication and damage repair. Herein, an electrochemical biosensor was developed for detection of T4 PNK activity and inhibitor screening based on supramolecular host-guest recognition between phosphate pillar (Dumitrache and McKinnon, 2017) [5] arene (PP5) and methylene blue (MB). The water-soluble PP5 employed as the host for complexation of MB guest molecules. The substrate DNA with 5'-hydroxyl group was first self-assembled on the gold electrode surface through the chemical adsorption of the thiol group, which was phosphorylated in the presence of T4 PNK and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). TiO2 served as a bridge to link phosphorylated DNA and PP5 via the robust phosphate-Ti4+-phosphate chemistry. The immobilized PP5 captured the MB on electrode surface via the supramolecular host-guest recognition interaction, resulting in an enhanced electrochemical response signal. The electrochemical signal is proportional to the T4 PNK concentration in the range of 2 × 10-4 to 5 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 1 × 10-4 U mL-1. It was also successfully used for PNK inhibitor screening and PNK activity assay in HeLa cell lysates sample. The proposed strategy provides a novel sensing platform for kinase activity assay and inhibitor screening, holding a great potential in clinical diagnostics, inhibitor screening, and nucleotide kinase-target drug discovery.

Abstract
In living organisms, chiral molecules have specific chiral conformations that produce different physiological effects. Ribose is one of the components of RNA, which mainly plays a role in regulating biological activity. Inspired by the biological recognition of sugars, functional chiral surfaces for recognizing L-ribose through non-covalent interactions were constructed. In the strategy of this study, a functional chiral gold surface based on host-guest interactions was constructed through the assembly of the host molecule single-function alynyl pillar[5]arene(SAP5) and the guest molecule (S) -mandelate-violet (SMV). The association constant of SMV and SAP5 was calculated to be 2.95×104 M-1, with a binding ratio of 1:1. By impedance and contact angle detection, the constructed functional interface has good detection effect on L-ribose in the range of 1×10-7 M to1× 10-2 M. In addition, CV was disassembled from the aromatic cavity of pillar[5]arene after adding zinc powder and it can repeat five times with good recyclability, thus achieving the organic combination of interface recognition and intelligence.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry enables the manipulation of functional components on a molecular scale, facilitating a "bottom-up" approach to govern the sizes and structures of supramolecular materials. Using dynamic non-covalent interactions, supramolecular polymers can create materials with reversible and degradable characteristics and the abilities to self-heal and respond to external stimuli. Pillar[n]arene represents a novel class of macrocyclic hosts, emerging after cyclodextrins, crown ethers, calixarenes, and cucurbiturils. Its significance lies in its distinctive structure, comparing an electron-rich cavity and two finely adjustable rims, which has sparked considerable interest. Furthermore, the straightforward synthesis, uncomplicated functionalization, and remarkable properties of pillar[n]arene based on supramolecular interactions make it an excellent candidate for material construction, particularly in generating interpenetrating supramolecular polymers. Polymers resulting from supramolecular interactions involving pillar[n]arene find potential in various applications, including fluorescence sensors, substance adsorption and separation, catalysis, light-harvesting systems, artificial nanochannels, and drug delivery. In this context, we provide an overview of these recent frontier research fields in the use of pillar[n]arene-based supramolecular polymers, which serves as a source of inspiration for the creation of innovative functional polymer materials derived from pillar[n]arene derivatives.

Abstract
T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) helps with DNA recombination and repair. In this work, a phosphate pillar[5]arene@palladium nanoparticles@reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite (PP5@PdNPs@rGO)-based electrochemical biosensor was created to identify T4 PNK activities. The PP5 used to complex toluidine blue (TB) guest molecules is water-soluble. With T4 PNK and ATP, the substrate DNA, which included a 5'-hydroxyl group, initially self-assembled over the gold electrode surface by chemical adsorption of the thiol units. Strong phosphate-Zr4+-phosphate chemistry allowed Zr4+ to act as a bridge between phosphorylated DNA and PP5@PdNPs@rGO. Through a supramolecular host-guest recognition connection, TB molecules were able to penetrate the PP5 cavity, where they produced a stronger electrochemical response. With a 5 × 10-7 U mL-1 detection limit, the electrochemical signal is linear in the 10-6 to 1 U mL-1 T4 PNK concentration range. It was also effective in measuring HeLa cell lysate-related PNK activities and screening PNK inhibitors. Nucleotide kinase-target drug development, clinical diagnostics, and screening for inhibitors all stand to benefit greatly from the suggested technology, which offers a unique sensing mechanism for kinase activity measurement.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) utilizing toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) to kill cancer cells exhibits huge potentiality in antitumor treatment. However, inadequate acidity, insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) amount, and overexpressed reduced glutathione (GSH) inside cancer cells severely restrict the efficacy of CDT. Although numerous efforts have been made, fabricating a versatile CDT material for surmounting these obstacles simultaneously is still a great challenge, especially for supramolecular materials owing to lacking an active metal unit for the Fenton reaction. Here, we intriguingly proposed a powerful supramolecular nanoagent (GOx@GANPs) based on the host-guest interaction between pillar[6]arene and ferrocene for all-sided boosting CDT efficacy via in situ cascade reactions. GOx@GANPs could stimulate intracellular glucose conversion into H+ and H2O2 to optimize the in situ Fenton reaction conditions and continuously produce sufficient •OH. Meanwhile, consumption of the original intracellular GSH pool and inhibition of GSH regeneration were synchronously achieved through the GSH-responsive gambogic acid prodrug and cutting off adenosine triphosphate (ATP) supply for GSH resynthesis, respectively. This complete GSH exhausting characteristic of GOx@GANPs effectively suppressed •OH elimination, ultimately resulting in a superior CDT effect. Furthermore, GOx@GANPs also produced synergistic effects of starvation therapy, chemotherapy, and CDT, exhibiting low toxicity toward normal tissues. Thus, this work introduces a valuable way for optimizing and elevating CDT efficiency and synergistic treatment of tumors.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 23:4761. [PMID: 37430675 DOI: 10.3390/s23104761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
The assembling of thiacalix[4]arene-based dendrimers in cone, partial cone, and 1,3-alternate configuration on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode coated with carbon black or multiwalled carbon nanotubes has been characterized using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Native and damaged DNA were electrostatically accumulated on the modifier layer. The influence of the charge of the redox indicator and of the macrocycle/DNA ratio was quantified and the roles of the electrostatic interactions and of the diffusional transfer of the redox indicator to the electrode interface indicator access were established. The developed DNA sensors were tested on discrimination of native, thermally denatured, and chemically damaged DNA and on the determination of doxorubicin as the model intercalator. The limit of detection of doxorubicin established for the biosensor based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes was equal to 1.0 pM with recovery from spiked human serum of 105-120%. After further optimization of the assembling directed towards the stabilization of the signal, the developed DNA sensors can find application in the preliminary screening of antitumor drugs and thermal damage of DNA. They can also be applied for testing potential drug/DNA nanocontainers as future delivery systems.

Toward Pathogenic Biofilm Suppressors: Synthesis of Amino Derivatives of Pillar[5]arene and Supramolecular Assembly with DNA. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020476.

Abstract
New amino derivatives of pillar[5]arene were obtained in three stages with good yields. It was shown that pillar[5]arene containing thiaether and tertiary amino groups formed supramolecular complexes with low molecular weight model DNA. Pillar[5]arene formed complexes with a DNA nucleotide pair at a ratio of 1:2 (macrocycle/DNA base pairs), as demonstrated by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. The association constants of pillar[5]arene with DNA were lgKass1:1 = 2.38 and lgKass1:2 = 5.07, accordingly. By using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy, it was established that the interaction of pillar[5]arene containing thiaether and tertiary amino groups (concentration of 10-5 M) with a model nucleic acid led to the formation of stable nanosized macrocycle/DNA associates with an average particle size of 220 nm. It was shown that the obtained compounds did not exhibit a pronounced toxicity toward human adenocarcinoma cells (A549) and bovine lung epithelial cells (LECs). The hypothesis about a possible usage of the synthesized macrocycle for the aggregation of extracellular bacterial DNA in a biofilm matrix was confirmed by the example of St. Aureus. It was found that pillar[5]arene at a concentration of 10-5 M was able to reduce the thickness of the St. Aureus biofilm by 15%.

Abstract
To reserve planar chirality, enhance molecular recognition, and build advanced self-assemblies, hybrid macrocyclic hosts containing rigid pillar[n]arene and flexible calix[m]arene were designed, prepared and investigated for interesting applications. This review summarizes and discusses different synthetic strategies for constructing hybrid macrocyclic structures. Pillar[n]arene dimer with rigid aromatic double bridges provided the possibility of introducing calix[m]arene cavities, where the planar chirality was reserved in the structure of pillararene. The capacity for molecular recognition was enhanced by hybrid macrocyclic cavities. Interestingly, the obtained pillar[n]arene-calix[m]arene could self-assemble into "channels" and "honeycomb" in both the solid state and solution phase as well as donate the molecular architecture as the wheel for the formation of mechanically interlocked molecules, such as rotaxane. In addition, the pillar[n]arene and calix[m]arene could also be coupled together to produce pillar[n]arene embeded 1,3-alternate and cone conformational calix[m]arene derivatives, which could catalyze the oxidative polymerization of aniline in aqueous solutions. Except for building hybrid cyclophanes by covalent bonds, weak supramolecular interactions were used to prepare pillar[n]arene-calix[m]arene analogous composites with other pillar-like pillar[n]pyridiniums and calix-like calix[m]pyrroles, exhibiting reasonable performances in enhancing molecular recognition and trapping solvent molecules.

Abstract
The recent progress in pillar[n]arene-assisted/participated carbon nanotube hybrid materials were initially summarized and discussed. The molecular structure of pillar[n]arene could serve different roles in the fabrication of attractive carbon nanotube-based materials. Firstly, pillar[n]arene has the ability to provide the structural basis for enlarging the cylindrical pillar-like architecture by forming one-dimensional, rigid, tubular, oligomeric/polymeric structures with aromatic moieties as the linker, or forming spatially "closed", channel-like, flexible structures by perfunctionalizing with peptides and with intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Interestingly, such pillar[n]arene-based carbon nanotube-resembling structures were used as porous materials for the adsorption and separation of gas and toxic pollutants, as well as for artificial water channels and membranes. In addition to the art of organic synthesis, self-assembly based on pillar[n]arene, such as self-assembled amphiphilic molecules, is also used to promote and control the dispersion behavior of carbon nanotubes in solution. Furthermore, functionalized pillar[n]arene derivatives integrated carbon nanotubes to prepare advanced hybrid materials through supramolecular interactions, which could also incorporate various compositions such as Ag and Au nanoparticles for catalysis and sensing.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin (CD) and pillar[n]arene are significant macrocyclic host molecules in supramolecular chemistry, and have either similar or contrasting physicochemical properties, for example, both can provide capable cavities available for recognizing various favorite guest molecules, while they usually possess different solubility in aqueous solutions, and exhibit diverse chiral characteristics. To balance their similarity and differences inherited from each chemical structure and incorporate both advantages, the CD-pillar[n]arene hybrid macrocyclic system was recently developed. In this review, we will focus on the preparation and application of CD-pillar[n]arene hybrid macrocyclic systems. Both noncovalent interactions and covalent bonds were employed in the synthesis strategies of building the hybrid macrocyclic system, which was in the form of host-guest inclusion, self-assembly, conjugated molecules, and polymeric structures. Furthermore, the CD-pillar[n]arene hybrid macrocyclic system has been primarily applied for the removal of organic pollutants from water, induced chirality, as well as photocatalysis due to the integration of both cavities from CD and pillar[n]arene as hybrid hosts and chiral characteristics inherited from their chemical structures.

Abstract
We presented an effective and universal strategy for the improvement of luminophore’s solid-state emission, i.e., macrocyclization-induced emission enhancement (MIEE), by linking luminophores through C(sp3) bridges to give a macrocycle. Benzothiadiazole-based macrocycle (BT-LC) has been synthesized by a one-step condensation of the monomer 4,7-bis(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)−2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BT-M) with paraformaldehyde, catalyzed by Lewis acid. In comparison with the monomer, macrocycle BT-LC produces much more intense fluorescence in the solid state (ΦPL = 99%) and exhibits better device performance in the application of OLEDs. Single-crystal analysis and theoretical simulations reveal that the monomer can return to the ground state through a minimum energy crossing point (MECPS1/S0), resulting in the decrease of fluorescence efficiency. For the macrocycle, its inherent structural rigidity prohibits this non-radiative relaxation process and promotes the radiative relaxation, therefore emitting intense fluorescence. More significantly, MIEE strategy has good universality that several macrocycles with different luminophores also display emission improvement. Organic luminescent materials attract attention due to their wide application range, but many organic luminogens suffer from severe quenching effect in the aggregate state. Here, the authors demonstrate a macrocyclization induced emission enhancement by linking luminophores through methylene bridges to give a macrocycle.

Abstract
Nucleic Acid (NA) aptamers are oligonucleotides. They are unique due to their secondary and tertiary structure; namely, the secondary structure defines the tertiary one by means of affinity and specificity. Our review is devoted only to DNA and RNA aptamers, since the majority of achievements in this direction were obtained with their application. NA aptamers can be used as macromolecular devices and consist of short single-stranded molecules, which adopt unique three-dimensional structures due to the interaction of complementary parts of the chain and stacking interactions. The review is devoted to the recent nanotechnological advances in NA aptamers application.

Abstract
Supramolecular self-assembly by hybrid macrocycles containing both cucurbit[m]uril (CB[m]) and pillar[n]arene was discussed and summarized in this review. Due to different solubility, diverse-sized cavities, and various driving forces in recognizing guests, the role of CB[m] and pillar[n]arene in such hybrid macrocyclic systems could switch between competitor in capturing specialized guests, and cooperator for building advanced hybridized macrocycles, by controlling their characteristics in host-guest inclusions. Furthermore, both CB[m] and pillar[n]arene were employed for fabricating advanced supramolecular self-assemblies such as mechanically interlocked molecules and supramolecular polymers. In those self-assemblies, CB[m] and pillar[n]arene played significant roles in, e.g., microreactor for catalyzing particular reactions to bridge different small pieces together, molecular "joint" to connect different monomers into larger assemblies, and "stabilizer" in accommodating the guest molecules to adopt a favorite structure geometry ready for assembling.

Abstract
An AB-type monomer based on a pillar[5]arene host and an imidazolium salt guest was successfully synthesized through a facile way. This monomer can self-assemble into linear supramolecular polymers in chloroform. After the addition of silver ions, the imidazolium salt group coordinated with silver ions to crosslink the linear supramolecular polymers at their ends, resulting in the formation of supramolecular polymer networks. Meanwhile, after further adding iodide ions, the supramolecular polymer network changed back to the linear supramolecular polymer. As a result, the topological structure of the system can be reversibly tuned. Furthermore, this supramolecular polymer network can be applied to remove organic dyes in water, suggesting its great potential in the treatment of waste water.

Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG) is a classical near-infrared (NIR) photothermal reagent that can be employed in clinical medical detection. Under neutral conditions, ICG can adsorb NIR light effectively for photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) therapy. However, ICG is easily degraded in weak acid environments, which seriously restricts its application. In this work, a cationic water-soluble pillar[5]arene (WP5) was selected as the stabilizing agent for ICG. Thanks to the host-guest interaction between WP5 and alkyl sulfonate, the stability and the photothermal conversion efficiency of ICG increased remarkably upon addition of WP5 as investigated by UV-vis spectrum and photothermal studies. Furthermore, an in vitro study showed higher efficiency of WP5&ICG in killing cancer cells in a shorter treatment time than the free ICG. Hence, it is hopeful that WP5 can be a new type of supramolecular host in enhancing the stability and photothermal conversion efficiency of photosensitizers.
