Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is known to undergo modifications by glucose during diabetes. This process produces glycated HSA that can have altered binding to some drugs. In this study, high-performance affinity microcolumns and competition studies were used to see how glycation affects the binding by two thiazolidinedione-class drugs (i.e., pioglitazone and rosiglitazone) at specific regions of HSA. These regions included Sudlow sites I and II, the tamoxifen and digitoxin sites, and a drug-binding site located in subdomain IB. At Sudlow site II, the association equilibrium constants (or binding constants) for pioglitazone and rosiglitazone with normal HSA were 1.7 × 105 M-1 and 2.0 × 105 M-1 at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, with values that changed by up to 5.7-fold for glycated HSA. Sudlow site I of normal HSA had binding constants for pioglitazone and rosiglitazone of 3.4 × 105 M-1 and 4.6 × 105 M-1, with these values changing by up to 1.5-fold for glycated HSA. Rosiglitazone was found to also bind a second region that had a positive allosteric effect on Sudlow site I for all the tested preparations of HSA (binding affinity, 1.1-3.2 × 105 M-1; coupling constant for Sudlow site I, 1.20-1.34). Both drugs had a strong positive allosteric effect on the tamoxifen site of HSA (coupling constants, 13.7-19.9 for pioglitazone and 3.7-11.5 for rosiglitazone). Rosiglitazone also had weak interactions at a site in subdomain IB, with a binding constant of 1.4 × 103 M-1 for normal HSA and a value that was altered by up to 6.8-fold with glycated HSA. Neither of the tested drugs had any significant binding at the digitoxin site. The results were used to produce affinity maps that described binding by these thiazolidinediones with HSA and the effects of glycation on these interactions during diabetes.

Evaluation of the effect of phenylpropanoids on the binding of heparin to human serum albumin and glycosylated human serum albumin concerning anticoagulant activity: A comparison study. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128732.

Abstract
The nonenzymatic advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and the accumulation of AGEs are the two main factors associated with the long-term pathogenesis of diabetes. Human serum albumin (HSA) as the most abundant serum protein has a higher fortuity to be modified by nonenzymatic glycation. In this study, the interaction of three phenylpropanoids (caffeic acid (Caf), p-coumaric acid (Cou), and cinnamic acid (Cin)) toward HSA and glycosylated HSA (gHSA) was analyzed by multiple spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking. The formation of fibrils in HSA and gHSA was confirmed by the Thioflavin T (ThT) assay. The phenylpropanoids have shown anti-fibrillation properties in vitro. The obtained thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces are the main forces in the binding interaction, and the quenching mechanism of the protein fluorescence is static. Molecular docking results, as well as the in vitro results, showed that Caf, Cou, and Cin exhibit more stable interactions with HSA, respectively. In addition, molecular docking analysis showed that Caf and Cou interact well with K199. Given the critical role of K199 in HSA glycosylation in diabetic patients, this process inhibits the interaction of stabilizer compounds and thus accelerates gHSA aggregation.

Abstract
Modification of proteins can occur during diabetes due to the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) with reactive dicarbonyls such as glyoxal (Go) and methylglyoxal (MGo). Human serum albumin (HSA) is a serum protein that binds to many drugs in blood and that is known to be modified by Go and MGo. This study examined the binding of various sulfonylurea drugs with these modified forms of HSA by using high-performance affinity microcolumns prepared by non-covalent protein entrapment. Zonal elution experiments were employed to compare the retention and overall binding constants for the drugs with Go- or MGo-modified HSA vs normal HSA. The results were compared to values from the literature, such as measured or estimated using affinity columns containing covalently immobilized HSA or biospecifically-adsorbed HSA. The entrapment-based approach provided estimates of global affinity constants within 3-5 min for most of the tested drugs and with typical precisions of ±10-23%. Each entrapped protein microcolumn was stable for over at least 60-70 injections and one month of use. The results obtained with normal HSA agreed at the 95% confidence level with global affinity constants that have been reported for the given drugs in the literature. It was found for HSA that had been modified with clinically-relevant levels of either Go or MGo that an increase in the global affinity constant of up to 2.1-fold occurred for some of the tested drugs. The information acquired in this study can be used in the future to adapt this entrapment-based approach to study and evaluate interactions between other types of drugs and normal or modified binding agents for clinical testing and biomedical research.

Abstract
Entrapment is a noncovalent immobilization method that enables a large biological binding agent, such as a protein, to be put within a support without modifying the structure of the binding agent. This chapter describes an on-column entrapment method that can be used with proteins and HPLC-grade silica to prepare columns for high-performance liquid chromatography. In this method, a protein is trapped within a dihydrazide-activated silica support by using oxidized glycogen as a capping agent. This method allows the protein to be placed within the support in a soluble form and with little or no loss of activity. The approach and reagents needed for this method are described in this chapter, along with some applications reported for columns that have been made using on-column protein entrapment.

Abstract
After entering human blood circulation, small-molecule drugs interact extensively with various plasma proteins, such as human serum albumin and α1-acid glycoprotein. These interactions profoundly affect the distribution of drugs in vivo and the binding of drugs to targets, thus affecting the efficacy of drugs. In-depth investigation of drug-plasma protein interactions is of great significance for the optimization of drug properties, the development of new drugs, risk assessment, and combination therapy of drugs. Therefore, it is essential to develop highly efficient, sensitive, and accurate methods for elucidating drug-plasma protein interactions. Chromatography is a powerful tool with high throughput, high separation performance, and high sensitivity in the characterization of drug-protein interactions. High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) have been widely utilized in this field. These methods include the determination of the effects of the posttranslational modification of proteins on binding and the competitive binding of multiple drugs. In addition, various chromatographic methods are used to obtain interaction information such as the binding constant, binding-site number, and dissociation rate constant. In this review, the common strategies and recent advances in HPAC and CE in the study of drug-plasma protein interactions are briefly reviewed. The immobilization methods of proteins, the principles and applications of frontal analysis, zonal elution, ultrafast affinity extraction, peak profiling, and peak decay analysis are discussed for HPAC and affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) and capillary electrophoresis frontal analysis (CE-FA) for CE. HPAC relies on the fixation of proteins on the surfaces of chromatographic stationary phases by covalent linking or physical adsorption, followed by obtaining the drug-protein interaction information through a variety of chromatographic methods. In the frontal chromatography analysis, mobile phases with different concentrations of drugs are passed through the HPAC column to obtain different breakthrough times. The process can determine the number of drug binding sites and the binding constant of each site in the affinity protein with high accuracy. The zonal elution method can detect the drug binding sites on proteins using site-specific probes to determine whether there is competition between drugs and probes. The sample consumption and analysis time of the zonal elution method are much less than those in frontal chromatography analysis. The ultrafast affinity extraction method can inject complex samples, such as serum, into affinity columns to determine the free drug components. It can measure the combination and dissociation constants of drug-protein interactions by changing the chromatography flow rate. Peak profiling and peak decay analyses are both effective methods for investigating the dissociation of drugs and proteins. In CE analysis, the drug and protein samples are dissolved in an electrophoresis buffer, and their interactions are measured during electrophoresis with high accuracy and low sample consumption. However, the adsorption of proteins on the capillary wall can compromise CE performance. Common CE methods in drug-protein interaction analysis are ACE and CE-FA. ACE is usually performed by changing the effective mobility of drugs via the addition of different concentrations of proteins. This method has been widely used, and several variant techniques have been developed recently. CE-FA involves the sampling of a drug premixed at a known concentration with a target protein. Compared with other CE methods, CE-FA exhibits the unique advantages of high throughput, automatic online analysis, and the ability to determine high-order drug-protein interactions. Finally, the shortcomings of current chromatography methods are summarized, and the application prospects and development direction of chromatography technology in the field of drug-plasma protein interaction research are discussed.

Abstract
Diabetes is characterized by elevated levels of blood glucose, which can result in the modification of serum proteins. The modification of a protein by glucose, or glycation, can also lead to the formation of advanced glycated end-products (AGEs). One protein that can be modified through glycation and AGE formation is human serum albumin (HSA). In this study, immunoextraction based on polyclonal anti-HSA antibodies was used with high-performance affinity microcolumns to see how AGE-related modifications produced by glyoxal (Go) and methylglyoxal (MGo) affected the binding of HSA to several first- and second-generation sulfonylureas, a class of drugs used to treat type II diabetes and known to bind to HSA. With this approach, it was possible to use a single platform to examine drug interactions with several preparations of HSA. Each applied protein sample could be used over 20-50 experiments, and global affinity constants for most of the examined drugs could be obtained in less than 7.5 min. The binding constants measured for these drugs with normal HSA gave good agreement with global affinities based on the literature. Both Go- and MGo-related modifications at clinically relevant levels were found by this method to create significant changes in the binding by some sulfonylureas with HSA. The global affinities for many of the drugs increased by 1.4-fold or more; gliclazide and tolazamide had no significant change with some preparations of modified HSA, and a small-to-moderate decrease in binding strength was noted for glibenclamide and gliclazide with Go-modified HSA. This approach can be adapted for the study of other drug-protein interactions and alternative modified proteins by altering the antibodies that are employed for immunoextraction and within the affinity microcolumn.

Abstract
Background:
Human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant protein in plasma,
is a monomeric multi-domain macromolecule with at least nine binding sites for endogenous
and exogenous ligands. HSA displays an extraordinary ligand binding capacity as a depot and
carrier for many compounds including most acidic drugs. Consequently, HSA has the potential
to influence the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs.
Objective:
In this review, the structural determinants of drug binding to the multiple sites of
HSA are analyzed and discussed in detail. Moreover, insight into the allosteric and competitive
mechanisms underpinning drug recognition, delivery, and efficacy are analyzed and discussed.
Conclusion:
As several factors can modulate drug binding to HSA (e.g., concurrent administration
of drugs competing for the same binding site, ligand binding to allosteric-coupled
clefts, genetic inherited diseases, and post-translational modifications), ligand binding to HSA
is relevant not only under physiological conditions, but also in the pharmacological therapy
management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistence hyperglycemia results in the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) by non-enzymatic glycation. AGEs and their receptor RAGE play an important role in generation of inflammatory molecules and oxidative stress. Metformin regulates insulin responsive gene and helps to achieve glycemic control however, no extensive study reported about its role against glycation induced oxidative stress and vascular inflammation. Therefore, present work focused on clinical relevance of three months metformin therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients against glycation induced oxidative stress and vascular inflammation. METHODS Among recruited 40 medicated-naive type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, 31 patients were continued with metformin therapy. Biomarkers of plasma protein glycation (fructosamine, protein carbonyls, β-amyloid) antioxidants and oxidative stress markers (GSH, catalase, NO, PON-1, AOPP, LPO; RAGE isoforms (sRAGE, esRAGE); inflammatory markers (IL-6, TNF-α) were determined at baseline and after 3-months of treatment. The expression profile of membrane RAGE, NF-κB, CML was studied in PBMNCs and GLUT-1 in erythrocyte ghost by western blotting. RESULTS Metformin showed maximum percent declined from baseline to three months therapy in levels of fructosamine, β-amyloid, sRAGE, inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α) and percent increment in esRAGE and antioxidants levels. It showed reduced levels of IL-6 and TNF-α by declining expression of CML, membrane RAGE and NF-κB in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients after three months therapy. CONCLUSIONS First report in Indian diabetes mellitus patients, where metformin showed effective inhibition against glycation and receptor mediated cellular inflammation. However, these findings need to be tested in a randomized trial.

Abstract
The placenta mediates the transfer of maternal nutrients into the fetal circulation while removing fetal waste products, drugs and environmental toxins that may otherwise be detrimental to fetal development. This study investigated the role of drug transporters and protein binding in the transfer of the antidiabetic drug glibenclamide across the human placental syncytiotrophoblast using placental perfusion experiments and computational modeling. In the absence of albumin, placental glibenclamide uptake from the fetal circulation was not affected by competitive inhibition with bromosulphothalein (BSP), indicating that OATP2B1 does not mediate placental glibenclamide uptake from the fetus. In the presence of maternal and fetal albumin, BSP increased placental glibenclamide uptake from the fetal circulation by displacing glibenclamide from BSA, increasing the free fraction of glibenclamide driving diffusive transport. The P-gp and BCRP inhibitor GF120918 did not affect placental glibenclamide uptake from the maternal circulation and as such this study did not find any evidence for the apical efflux transporters in placental glibenclamide transfer. Computational modeling confirmed that albumin binding and not transporter activity, is the dominant factor in the transfer of glibenclamide across the human placenta. The effect of BSP binding to albumin on promoting the diffusive transfer of glibenclamide highlights the importance of drug-protein binding interactions and their interpretation using computational modeling.

Abstract
An on-line purification and entrapment system was developed that could extract a protein from a sample such as serum and entrap this protein within a small column for use in high-performance affinity chromatography. Human serum albumin (HSA) was employed as a model protein for this work. Immunoextraction columns containing polyclonal anti-HSA antibodies were developed to capture and isolate HSA from applied samples. This was followed by the use of a strong cation-exchange column to recapture and focus HSA as it eluted from the immunoextraction columns. The recaptured HSA was entrapped within 1.0 cm × 2.1 mm I.D. columns containing hydrazide-activated silica and in the presence of oxidized glycogen as a capping agent. The binding and elution properties of HSA on the various components of this system were examined and optimized. The entrapped columns produced by this system were then evaluated for their use in binding studies with several sulfonylurea drugs. The HSA columns created by this approach typically contained 0.3-0.6 nmol HSA and were stable over several weeks and more than 50-60 sample injections. Drug binding constants could be determined with these columns in 8 min or less by zonal elution and gave good agreement with literature values. The same system could be used for the capture and entrapment of other proteins by utilizing antibodies against the given target for immunoextraction.

Abstract
Ultrafast affinity extraction was evaluated and used with microcolumns containing human serum albumin (HSA) to measure the global affinity constants and dissociation rate constants for several second- and third-generation sulfonylurea drugs with solution-phase normal HSA or glycated HSA. Glibenclamide, glimepiride and glipizide were used as model drugs for this work. Both single- and two-column systems were considered for the analysis of global affinities for the model drugs. These methods were optimized with respect to the flow rates, column sizes and sample residence times that were employed with each drug for ultrafast affinity extraction. Data acquired with single-column systems were further utilized to estimate the dissociation rate constants for normal HSA and glycated HSA with the given drugs. The binding constants obtained by the single- and two-column systems showed good agreement with each other and with values obtained from the literature. Use of a single-column system indicated that levels of glycation found in controlled or advanced diabetes resulted in a 18-44% decrease in the overall binding strength of the model drugs with HSA. Although the two-column system allowed work with smaller free drug fractions and clinically-relevant drug/protein concentrations, the single-column system required less protein, provided better precision, and was easier to use in binding studies.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea drugs have significant binding to proteins in blood, with most of this binding believed to occur with human serum albumin (HSA). High performance affinity chromatography and affinity microcolumns containing immobilized HSA were used to investigate binding by the sulfonylurea drug chlorpropamide to normal HSA and glycated HSA, which is a modified form of HSA that has an increased serum concentration in diabetes. Experiments employing frontal analysis indicated that the binding by chlorpropamide gave a good fit to a two-site model for both normal HSA and glycated HSA samples that were representative of controlled or advanced diabetes. These interactions involved a set of moderate-to-high affinity sites and a set of lower affinity sites, with binding constants in the range of 6.2-9.9 × 104 M-1 and 0.18-0.57 × 104 M-1, respectively, at pH 7.4 and 37 °C. Competition studies utilizing a zonal elution format demonstrated that chlorpropamide could interact at both Sudlow sites I and II of HSA, with affinities in the range expected for the moderate-to-high affinity sites of this drug. The affinity of chlorpropamide at Sudlow site I had a small increase of up to 1.2-fold when comparing the normal HSA and glycated HSA samples. Chlorpropamide gave a larger 1.4- to over 1.5-fold increase at Sudlow site II when the affinity of this drug was compared between normal HSA and the same samples of glycated HSA. These results were compared to those obtained previously with other sulfonylurea drugs to help determine how glycation can change the overall and site-selective binding strength of these drugs with HSA at levels of protein modification that are seen in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Many biological processes involve solute-protein interactions and solute-solute competition for protein binding. One method that has been developed to examine these interactions is zonal elution affinity chromatography. This review discusses the theory and principles of zonal elution affinity chromatography, along with its general applications. Examples of applications that are examined include the use of this method to estimate the relative extent of solute-protein binding, to examine solute-solute competition and displacement from proteins, and to measure the strength of these interactions. It is also shown how zonal elution affinity chromatography can be used in solvent and temperature studies and to characterize the binding sites for solutes on proteins. In addition, several alternative applications of zonal elution affinity chromatography are discussed, which include the analysis of binding by a solute with a soluble binding agent and studies of allosteric effects. Other recent applications that are considered are the combined use of immunoextraction and zonal elution for drug-protein binding studies, and binding studies that are based on immobilized receptors or small targets.

Abstract
Sulphonylurea drugs stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells primarily by inhibiting ATP sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in the β-cell membrane. The effective sulphonylurea concentration at its site of action is significantly attenuated by binding to serum albumin, which makes it difficult to compare in vitro and in vivo data. We therefore measured the ability of gliclazide and glibenclamide to inhibit KATP channels and stimulate insulin secretion in the presence of serum albumin. We used this data, together with estimates of free drug concentrations from binding studies, to predict the extent of sulphonylurea inhibition of KATP channels at therapeutic concentrations in vivo. KATP currents from mouse pancreatic β-cells and Xenopus oocytes were measured using the patch-clamp technique. Gliclazide and glibenclamide binding to human plasma were determined in spiked plasma samples using an ultrafiltration-mass spectrometry approach. Bovine serum albumin (60g/l) produced a mild, non-significant reduction of gliclazide block of KATP currents in pancreatic β-cells and Xenopus oocytes. In contrast, glibenclamide inhibition of recombinant KATP channels was dramatically suppressed by albumin (predicted free drug concentration <0.1%). Insulin secretion was also reduced. Free concentrations of gliclazide and glibenclamide in the presence of human plasma measured in binding experiments were 15% and 0.05%, respectively. Our data suggest the free concentration of glibenclamide in plasma is too low to account for the drug’s therapeutic effect. In contrast, the free gliclazide concentration in plasma is high enough to close KATP channels and stimulate insulin secretion.

Abstract
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a worldwide parasitic zoonosis caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. Current chemotherapy against this disease is based on the administration of benzimidazoles (BZMs). However, BZM treatment has a low cure rate and causes several side effects. Therefore, new treatment options are needed. The antidiabetic drug glibenclamide (Glb) is a second-generation sulfonylurea receptor inhibitor that has been shown to be active against protozoan parasites. Hence, we assessed the in vitro and in vivo pharmacological effects of Glb against the larval stage of E. granulosus. The in vitro activity was concentration dependent on both protoscoleces and metacestodes. Moreover, Glb combined with the minimum effective concentration of albendazole sulfoxide (ABZSO) was demonstrated to have a greater effect on metacestodes in comparison with each drug alone. Likewise, there was a reduction in the cyst weight after oral administration of Glb to infected mice (5 mg/kg of body weight administered daily for a period of 8 weeks). However, in contrast to in vitro assays, no differences in effectiveness were found between Glb + albendazole (ABZ) combined treatment and Glb monotherapy. Our results also revealed mitochondrial membrane depolarization and an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels in Glb-treated protoscoleces. In addition, the intracystic drug accumulation and our bioinformatic analysis using the available E. granulosus genome suggest the presence of genes encoding sulfonylurea transporters in the parasite. Our data clearly demonstrated an anti-echinococcal effect of Glb on E. granulosus larval stage. Further studies are needed in order to thoroughly investigate the mechanism involved in the therapeutic response of the parasite to this sulfonylurea. In this work we demonstrated the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of Glb against the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. At the cellular level, the drug triggered mitochondrial membrane depolarization and increased intracellular Ca2+ levels, thus affecting ATP generation in the parasite. In addition, since intracystic Glb concentrations were higher than those used in the external medium, we proposed that the drug might enter the cyst through cell surface transporters. The observed effect of the drug on the growth of hydatid cysts in mice leads to the consideration of a novel role of Glb in CE treatment. Therefore, our further studies will focus on the evaluation of ABZ formulations with enhanced bioavailability to achieve an improved in vivo anti-echinococcal effect using both drugs simultaneously.

Abstract
The high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method employing stationary phases immobilized with plasma proteins was used for this study to investigate the structural properties governing drug-plasma protein binding. A set of 65 compounds with a broad range of structural diversity (in terms of volume, hydrogen-bonding, polarity and electrostatic force) were selected for this purpose. The Abraham linear free energy relationship (LFER) analyses of the retention factors on the immobilized HSA (human serum albumin) and AGP (α1-acid glycoprotein) stationary phases showed that McGowan's characteristic molecular volume (V), dipolarity/polarizability (S) and hydrogen bond basicity (B) are the three significant molecular descriptors of solutes determining the interaction with immobilized plasma proteins, whereas excess molar refraction (E) is less important and hydrogen bond acidity (A) is not of statistical significance in both systems, for electrically neutral compounds. It was shown that ionised acids, as carboxylate anions, bind very strongly to the immobilized HSA stationary phase and that ionised bases, as cations bind strongly to the AGP stationary phase. This is the first time that the effect of ionised species on plasma protein binding has been determined quantitatively; the increased binding of acids to HSA is due almost entirely to acids in their ionised form.

Abstract
The interactions of drugs with serum proteins are often stereoselective and can affect the distribution, activity, toxicity and rate of excretion of these drugs in the body. A number of approaches based on affinity chromatography, and particularly high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC), have been used as tools to study these interactions. This review describes the general principles of affinity chromatography and HPAC as related to their use in drug binding studies. The types of serum agents that have been examined with these methods are also discussed, including human serum albumin, α1-acid glycoprotein, and lipoproteins. This is followed by a description of the various formats based on affinity chromatography and HPAC that have been used to investigate drug interactions with serum proteins and the historical development for each of these formats. Specific techniques that are discussed include zonal elution, frontal analysis, and kinetic methods such as those that make use of band-broadening measurements, peak decay analysis, or ultrafast affinity extraction.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant circulating plasma protein. Besides a significant contribution to the osmotic pressure, it is also involved in the fine regulation of many other physiological processes, including the balance of the redox state, the inflammatory and/or immunological responses, and the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of many drugs. Growing evidence suggests that HSA undergoes structural and functional damage in diseases characterized by an enhanced systemic inflammatory response and oxidative stress, as it occurs in chronic liver disease. Based on their clinical relevance, this review provides a summary of the most common post-translational modifications affecting HSA structural integrity and functions and their clinical relevance in the field of liver disease. The review also provides a critical description of the analytical approaches employed for the investigation of conformational alterations and the identification/quantitation of specific post-translational modifications affecting HSA. Finally, the analytical methods available for the assessment of two of the most clinically relevant non-oncotic properties of HSA, namely the binding capacity and the antioxidant activity, are critically reviewed. Among the available techniques particular attention is given to those proposed for the in vitro and in vivo investigation of structurally modified albumin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interactions between biochemical and chemical agents in the body are important in many clinical processes. Affinity chromatography and high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC), in which a column contains an immobilized biologically related binding agent, are 2 methods that can be used to study these interactions. CONTENT This review presents various approaches that can be used in affinity chromatography and HPAC to characterize the strength or rate of a biological interaction, the number and types of sites that are involved in this process, and the interactions between multiple solutes for the same binding agent. A number of applications for these methods are examined, with an emphasis on recent developments and high-performance affinity methods. These applications include the use of these techniques for fundamental studies of biological interactions, high-throughput screening of drugs, work with modified proteins, tools for personalized medicine, and studies of drug-drug competition for a common binding agent. SUMMARY The wide range of formats and detection methods that can be used with affinity chromatography and HPAC for examining biological interactions makes these tools attractive for various clinical and pharmaceutical applications. Future directions in the development of small-scale columns and the coupling of these methods with other techniques, such as mass spectrometry or other separation methods, should continue to increase the flexibility and ease with which these approaches can be used in work involving clinical or pharmaceutical samples.

Abstract
The binding of drugs with proteins and other agents in serum is of interest in personalized medicine because this process can affect the dosage and action of drugs. The extent of this binding may also vary with a given disease state. These interactions may involve serum proteins, such as human serum albumin or α1-acid glycoprotein, or other agents, such as lipoproteins. High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) is a tool that has received increasing interest as a means for studying these interactions. This review discusses the general principles of HPAC and the various approaches that have been used in this technique to examine drug-protein binding and in work related to personalized medicine. These approaches include frontal analysis and zonal elution, as well as peak decay analysis, ultrafast affinity extraction, and chromatographic immunoassays. The operation of each method is described and examples of applications for these techniques are provided. The type of information that can be obtained by these methods is also discussed, as related to the analysis of drug-protein binding and the study of clinical or pharmaceutical samples.

Abstract
A method combining on-line immunoextraction microcolumns with high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) was developed and tested for use in examining drug-protein interactions with normal or modified proteins. Normal human serum albumin (HSA) and glycated HSA were used as model proteins for this work. High-performance immunoextraction microcolumns with sizes of 1.0-2.0 cm × 2.1mm i.d. and containing anti-HSA polyclonal antibodies were developed and tested for their ability to bind normal HSA or glycated HSA. These microcolumns were able to extract up to 82-93% for either type of protein at 0.05-0.10 mL/min and had a binding capacity of 0.34-0.42 nmol HSA for a 1.0 cm × 2.1mm i.d. microcolumn. The immunoextraction microcolumns and their adsorbed proteins were tested for use in various approaches for drug binding studies. Frontal analysis was used with the adsorbed HSA/glycated HSA to measure the overall affinities of these proteins for the drugs warfarin and gliclazide, giving comparable values to those obtained previously using similar protein preparations that had been covalently immobilized within HPAC columns. Zonal elution competition studies with gliclazide were next performed to examine the specific interactions of this drug at Sudlow sites I and II of the adsorbed proteins. These results were also comparable to those noted in prior work with covalently immobilized samples of normal HSA or glycated HSA. These experiments indicated that drug-protein binding studies can be carried out by using on-line immunoextraction microcolumns with HPAC. The same method could be used in the future with clinical samples and other drugs or proteins of interest in pharmaceutical studies or biomedical research.

Abstract
The primary endogenous ligands of human serum albumin (HSA) are non-esterified fatty acids, with 0.1-2mol of fatty acids normally being bound to HSA. In type II diabetes, fatty acid levels in serum are often elevated, and the presence of high glucose results in an increase in the non-enzymatic glycation of HSA. High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) was used to examine the combined effects of glycation and the presence of long chain fatty acids on the binding of HSA with R-warfarin and l-tryptophan (i.e., probes for Sudlow sites I and II, the major sites for drugs on this protein). Zonal elution competition studies were used to examine the interactions of myristic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid with these probes on HSA. It was found that all these fatty acids had direct competition with R-warfarin at Sudlow site I of normal HSA and glycated HSA, with the glycated HSA typically having stronger binding for the fatty acids at this site. At Sudlow site II, direct competition was observed for all the fatty acids with l-tryptophan when using normal HSA, while glycated HSA gave no competition or positive allosteric interactions between these fatty acids and l-tryptophan. These data indicated that glycation can alter the interactions of drugs and fatty acids at specific binding sites on HSA. The results of this study should lead to a better understanding of how these interactions may change during diabetes and demonstrate how HPAC can be used to examine drug/solute-protein interactions in complex systems.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
A high histamine H1 receptor (H1R) expression cell membrane chromatography (CMC) method was developed to investigate the affinity of ligands for H1R.
Methods
The affinity of ligands for H1R was evaluated by frontal analysis. Competition studies and molecular docking study were utilized to study the interactions that occurred at specific binding sites on H1R.
Key findings
The KD values measured by frontal analysis were (8.72 ± 0.21) × 10−7 M for azelastine, (9.12 ± 0.26) × 10−7 M for cyproheptadine, (9.90 ± 0.18) × 10−7 M for doxepin, (1.42 ± 0.13) × 10−6 M for astemizole, (2.25 ± 0.36) × 10−6 M for chlorpheniramine and (3.10 ± 0.27) × 10−6 M for diphenhydramine. The results had a positive correlation with those from radioligand binding assay. The ability of displacement order measured on the binding sites occupied by doxepin was doxepin (KD, (2.95 ± 0.21) × 10−8 M) > astemizole (KD, (5.03 ± 0.18) × 10−7 M) > chlorpheniramine (KD, (1.27 ± 0.16) × 10−6 M) > cyproheptadine (KD, (1.61 ± 0.27) × 10−6 M), whose order met with the scores by molecular docking study.
Conclusions
The studies showed CMC could be applied to investigate drug–receptor interactions.

Analysis of multi-site drug-protein interactions by high-performance affinity chromatography: Binding by glimepiride to normal or glycated human serum albumin. J Chromatogr A 2015; 1408:133-44. [PMID: 26189669 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2015.07.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2015] [Revised: 06/29/2015] [Accepted: 07/03/2015] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) was used in a variety of formats to examine multi-site interactions between glimepiride, a third-generation sulfonylurea drug, and normal or in vitro glycated forms of the transport protein human serum albumin (HSA). Frontal analysis revealed that glimepiride interacts with normal HSA and glycated HSA at a group of high affinity sites (association equilibrium constant, or Ka, 9.2-11.8×10(5)M(-1) at pH 7.4 and 37°C) and a group of lower affinity regions (Ka, 5.9-16×10(3)M(-1)). Zonal elution competition studies were designed and carried out in both normal- and reversed-role formats to investigate the binding by this drug at specific sites. These experiments indicated that glimepiride was interacting at both Sudlow sites I and II. Allosteric effects were also noted with R-warfarin at Sudlow site I and with tamoxifen at the tamoxifen site on HSA. The binding at Sudlow site I had a 2.1- to 2.3-fold increase in affinity in going from normal HSA to the glycated samples of HSA. There was no significant change in the affinity for glimepiride at Sudlow site II in going from normal HSA to a moderately glycated sample of HSA, but a slight decrease in affinity was seen in going to a more highly glycated HSA sample. These results demonstrated how various HPAC-based methods can be used to profile and characterize multi-site binding by a drug such as glimepiride to a protein and its modified forms. The information obtained from this study should be useful in providing a better understanding of how drug-protein binding may be affected by glycation and of how separation and analysis methods based on HPAC can be employed to study systems with complex interactions or that involve modified proteins.

Abstract
In diabetes, the elevated levels of glucose in the bloodstream can result in the nonenzymatic glycation of proteins such as human serum albumin (HSA). This type of modification has been shown to affect the interactions of some drugs with HSA, including several sulfonylurea drugs that are used to treat type II diabetes. This study used high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) to examine the interactions of glipizide (i.e., a second-generation sulfonylurea drug) with normal HSA or HSA that contained various levels of in vitro glycation. Frontal analysis indicated that glipizide was interacting with both normal and glycated HSA through two general groups of sites: a set of relatively strong interactions and a set of weaker interactions with average association equilibrium constants at pH 7.4 and 37 °C in the range of 2.4-6.0 × 10(5) and 1.7-3.7 × 10(4) M(-1), respectively. Zonal elution competition studies revealed that glipizide was interacting at both Sudlow sites I and II, which were estimated to have affinities of 3.2-3.9 × 10(5) and 1.1-1.4 × 10(4) M(-1). Allosteric effects were also noted to occur for this drug between the tamoxifen site and the binding of R-warfarin at Sudlow site I. Up to an 18% decrease in the affinity for glipizide was observed at Sudlow site I ongoing from normal HSA to glycated HSA, while up to a 27% increase was noted at Sudlow site II. This information should be useful in indicating how HPAC can be used to investigate other drugs that have complex interactions with proteins. These results should also be valuable in providing a better understanding of how glycation may affect drug-protein interactions and the serum transport of drugs such as glipizide during diabetes.

Abstract
Centipede Scolopendra, a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine, has been shown to have anti-cancer effects. In this study, the inhibitory effect of alcohol extracts of Centipede Scolopendra (AECS) was more prominent when treating cells highly expressing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (A431 and HEK293/EGFR cells versus HEK293 cells). The elution profiles of AECS on cell membrane chromatography (CMC) column showed that AECS could bind to EGFR, and competition studies indicated that AECS and gefitinib may have direct competition at a single common binding site on EGFR. SiRNA knockdown of EGFR in A431 cells attenuated AECS effects, suggesting that EGFR was a target mediated by AECS. In a cell culture system, AECS dramatically induced apoptosis of A431 and HEK293/EGFR cells, which was associated with the effects on Bcl-2 family. Furthermore, AECS could alter EGFR kinase activity and reduce phosphorylation of EGFR and downstream signaling players AKT and Erk1/2. The mechanism of AECS to inhibit high-EGFR expression cell proliferation is due to its ability to induce apoptosis and modulate the EGFR pathway. This study might provide a novel therapy for cancer with high-EGFR expression.

Abstract
High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) is a type of liquid chromatography that has seen growing use as a tool for the study of drug-protein interactions. This report describes how HPAC can be used to provide information on the number of binding sites, equilibrium constants, and changes in binding that can occur during drug-protein interactions. This approach will be illustrated through recent data that have been obtained by HPAC for the binding of sulfonylurea drugs and other solutes to the protein human serum albumin (HSA), and especially to forms of this protein that have been modified by non-enzymatic glycation. The theory and use of both frontal analysis and zonal elution competition studies in such work will be discussed. Various practical aspects of these experiments will be presented, as well as factors to consider in the extension of these methods to other drugs and proteins or additional types of biological interactions.

Abstract
Ultrafast affinity extraction and a multi-dimensional affinity system were developed for measuring free drug fractions at therapeutic levels. This approach was used to compare the free fractions and global affinity constants of several sulfonylurea drugs in the presence of normal human serum albumin (HSA) or glycated forms of this protein, as are produced during diabetes. Affinity microcolumns containing immobilized HSA were first used to extract the free drug fractions in injected drug/protein mixtures. As the retained drug eluted from the HSA microcolumn, it was passed through a second HSA column for further separation and measurement. Items that were considered during the optimization of this approach included the column sizes and flow rates that were used, and the time at which the second column was placed on-line with the HSA microcolumn. This method required only 1.0 μL of a sample per injection and was able to measure free drug fractions as small as 0.09-2.58% with an absolute precision of ±0.02-0.5%. The results that were obtained indicated that glycation can affect the free fractions of sulfonylurea drugs at typical therapeutic levels and that the size of this effect varies with the level of HSA glycation. Global affinity constants that were estimated from these free drug fractions gave good agreement with those predicted from previous binding studies or determined through a reference method. The same approach could be utilized with other drugs and proteins or modified binding agents of clinical or pharmaceutical interest.

Abstract
Affinity chromatography has become an important tool for characterizing biomolecular interactions. The use of affinity microcolumns, which contain immobilized binding agents and have volumes in the mid-to-low microliter range, has received particular attention in recent years. Potential advantages of affinity microcolumns include the many analysis and detection formats that can be used with these columns, as well as the need for only small amounts of supports and immobilized binding agents. This review examines how affinity microcolumns have been used to examine biomolecular interactions. Both capillary-based microcolumns and short microcolumns are considered. The use of affinity microcolumns with zonal elution and frontal analysis methods are discussed. The techniques of peak decay analysis, ultrafast affinity extraction, split-peak analysis, and band-broadening studies are also explored. The principles of these methods are examined and various applications are provided to illustrate the use of these methods with affinity microcolumns. It is shown how these techniques can be utilized to provide information on the binding strength and kinetics of an interaction, as well as on the number and types of binding sites. It is further demonstrated how information on competition or displacement effects can be obtained by these methods.

Abstract
The study of metabolomics can provide valuable information about biochemical pathways and processes at the molecular level. There have been many reports that have examined the structure, identity and concentrations of metabolites in biological systems. However, the binding of metabolites with proteins is also of growing interest. This review examines past reports that have looked at the binding of various types of metabolites with proteins. An overview of the techniques that have been used to characterize and study metabolite-protein binding is first provided. This is followed by examples of studies that have investigated the binding of hormones, fatty acids, drugs or other xenobiotics, and their metabolites with transport proteins and receptors. These examples include reports that have considered the structure of the resulting solute-protein complexes, the nature of the binding sites, the strength of these interactions, the variations in these interactions with solute structure, and the kinetics of these reactions. The possible effects of metabolic diseases on these processes, including the impact of alterations in the structure and function of proteins, are also considered.

Abstract
Diabetes is a health condition associated with elevated levels of glucose in the bloodstream and affects 366 million people worldwide. Type II diabetes is often treated with sulfonylurea drugs, which are known to bind tightly in blood to the transport protein human serum albumin (HSA). One consequence of the elevated levels of glucose in diabetes is the non-enzymatic glycation of proteins such as HSA. Several areas of HSA are now known to be affected by glycation-related modifications, which may in turn affect the binding of sulfonylurea drugs and other solutes to this protein. This review discusses some recent studies that have examined these changes in drug-protein binding by employing high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC). A description of the theoretical and experimental techniques that were used in these studies is given. The information on drug interactions with glycated HSA, as obtained through this method, is also summarized. In addition, the potential advantages of this approach in the areas of biointeraction analysis and personalized medicine are considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The binding of three new aminopropan-2-ol compounds briefly called 2F109, ANBL and TWo8 with potential cardiovascular activity to bovine serum albumin (BSA), α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and to rat serum was studied. The chemical structures of these compounds are related to carvedilol. They possess an antiarrhythmic and hypotensive activity, and β- and α-adrenolytic mechanism of action. All analogues are weak bases with pKa values 8.65, 8.85 and 8.26 for 2F109, ANBL and TWo8, respectively, and they possess lipophilic character (log P > 1.9584). METHODS The extent of protein binding was determined using equilibrium dialysis in the range 2.5 - 900 μM, and 2.5 - 300 μM for binding of investigated compounds to BSA and AGP, respectively, and the quantitative measurement was done by LC/ESI-MS/MS assay. RESULTS The studied compounds bound to a single class of binding sites on BSA which was characterized by low affinity (Kd for 2F109 = 8.49 x 10(-5) M, for ANBL= 1.92 x 10(-5) M, and for TWo8 = 1.71 x 10(-5) M) and low capacity (n = 0.53 for 2F109, 0.132 for ANBL and 0.13 for TWo8). The binding of 2F109, ANBL and TWo8 to AGP revealed one class of binding sites, with moderate affinity (Kd for 2F109 = 4.67 x 10(-6) M, for ANBL = 3.48 x 10(-5) M, and for TWo8 = 1.13 x 10(-5) M) and higher capacity (n = 2.21 for 2F109, 2.76 for ANBL and 2.28 for TWo8). CONCLUSION The obtained data indicate that 2F109, ANBL and TWo8 moderately bind to BSA (34.2 - 71.2%) with low capacity (Ka = 6.21 x 10(3) - 7.61 x 10(3)M(-1)) and strongly bind to AGP (71.5 - 85.5%) with moderate affinity (Ka = 7.94 x 10(4) - 4.73 x 10(5)M(-1)).

Abstract
Glycation involves the non-enzymatic addition of reducing sugars and/or their reactive degradation products to amine groups on proteins. This process is promoted by the presence of elevated blood glucose concentrations in diabetes and occurs with various proteins that include human serum albumin (HSA). This review examines work that has been conducted in the study and analysis of glycated HSA. The general structure and properties of HSA are discussed, along with the reactions that can lead to modification of this protein during glycation. The use of glycated HSA as a short-to-intermediate term marker for glycemic control in diabetes is examined, and approaches that have been utilized for measuring glycated HSA are summarized. Structural studies of glycated HSA are reviewed, as acquired for both in vivo and in vitro glycated HSA, along with data that have been obtained on the rate and thermodynamics of HSA glycation. In addition, this review considers various studies that have investigated the effects of glycation on the binding of HSA with drugs, fatty acids and other solutes and the potential clinical significance of these effects.

JOURNAL OF ANALYTICAL METHODS IN CHEMISTRY 2013; 2013:439039.

Abstract
For drug candidates, a plasma protein binding (PPB) more than 90% is more meaningful and deserves further investigation in development. In the study, a high-performance liquid chromatography method employing column containing immobilized human serum albumin (HSA) to screen in vitro PPB of leading compounds was established and successfully applied to tested compounds. Good correlation (a coefficient correlation of 0.96) was attained between the reciprocal values (X) of experimentally obtained retention time of reference compounds eluted through HSA column and the reported PPB values (Y) with a correlation equation of Y = 92.03 - 97.01X. The method was successfully applied to six test compounds, and the result was confirmed by the conventional ultrafiltration technique, and both yielded equal results. However, due to the particular protein immobilized to column, the method cannot be applied for all compounds and should be exploited judiciously based on the value of the logarithmic measure of the acid dissociation constant (pKa) as per the requirement. If α1-acid glycoprotein and other plasma proteins could be immobilized like HSA with their actual ratio in plasma to column simultaneously, the result attained using immobilized column may be more accurate, and the method could be applied to more compounds without pKa limitation.
