Zhang S, Wang X, Wang X, Fan X, Liu K, Sa Y, Wilson G, Ma X, Chen G. Establishment and application of a screening method for α-glucosidase inhibitors based on dual sensing and affinity chromatography. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1720:464822. [PMID: 38502989 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.464822] [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: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
α-Glucosidase plays a direct role in the metabolic pathways of starch and glycogen, any dysfunction in its activity could result in metabolic disease. Concurrently, this enzyme serves as a target for diverse drugs and inhibitors, contributing to the regulation of glucose metabolism in the human body. Here, an integrated analytical method was established to screen inhibitors of α-glucosidase. This step-by-step screening model was accomplished through the biosensing and affinity chromatography techniques. The newly proposed sensing program had a good linear relationship within the enzyme activity range of 0.25 U mL-1 to 1.25 U mL-1, which can quickly identify active ingredients in complex samples. Then the potential active ingredients can be captured, separated, and identified by an affinity chromatography model. The combination of the two parts was achieved by an immobilized enzyme technology and a microdevice for reaction, and the combination not only ensured efficiency and accuracy for inhibitor screening but also eliminated the occurrence of false positive results in the past. The emodin, with a notable inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase, was successfully screened from five traditional Chinese medicines using this method. The molecular docking results also demonstrated that emodin was well embedded into the active pocket of α-glucosidase. In summary, the strategy provided an efficient method for developing new enzyme inhibitors from natural products.

Abstract
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world and its incidence is expected to increase with the aging of the world's population and globalization of risk factors. Natural products and their derivatives have provided a significant number of approved anticancer drugs and the development of robust and selective screening assays for the identification of lead anticancer natural products are essential in the challenge of developing personalized targeted therapies tailored to the genetic and molecular characteristics of tumors. To this end, a ligand fishing assay is a remarkable tool to rapidly and rigorously screen complex matrices, such as plant extracts, for the isolation and identification of specific ligands that bind to relevant pharmacological targets. In this paper, we review the application of ligand fishing with cancer-related targets to screen natural product extracts for the isolation and identification of selective ligands. We provide critical analysis of the system configurations, targets, and key phytochemical classes related to the field of anticancer research. Based on the data collected, ligand fishing emerges as a robust and powerful screening system for the rapid discovery of new anticancer drugs from natural resources. It is currently an underexplored strategy according to its considerable potential.

Abstract
The rapid growth of demands for drug discovery has necessitated the ongoing pursuit of new methods for specific ligands screening and identification. This work combined receptor-affinity chromatography (RAC) with high-throughput sequencing techniques to rapidly screen and identify the specific ligands. By this method, immobilized angiotensin II type I receptor (AT1R) and endothelin receptor A (ETAR) based on RAC were utilized for lead screening from a DNA-encoded library. The specific ligands of AT1R (ligand A1, A2) and ETAR (ligand B1, B2) were synthesized after decoding by high-throughput sequencing techniques. The dissociation rate constants (kd) of ligand A1, A2 to AT1R and B1, B2 to ETAR were 9.65 × 10-4, 31.1 × 10-4 and 0.66, 1.22 s-1 by peak profiling assay. The association constant (KA) to the receptors of four ligands was 5.4 × 106, 3.3 × 106 and 1.6 × 106, 2.2 × 105 by injection amount dependent method. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the four specific ligands are similar to those of the positive drugs. This indicates that they are promising to drug candidates. The druggability of the four ligands through pharmacokinetic investigation by HPLC-MS/MS presented desired pharmacokinetic behavior including the fast absorption, the relatively slow elimination. These results, taking together, indicated that the RAC combined with high-throughput sequencing techniques can screen and identify the specific ligands according to various proteins, thus creating a general strategy for rapid discovery of promising drug candidates.

Abstract
For lead compound discovery from natural products, hollow fiber cell fishing with chromatographic analysis is a newly developed method. In this study, an adsorbed hollow fiber-based biological fingerprinting method was firstly developed to discover potential platelet aggregation inhibitors from Danshen-Honghua decoction. Platelets were seeded on the fiber and their survival rate was tested. Results indicated that more than 92% platelets survived during the whole operation process. Ranitidine and tirofiban were used as positive and negative control respectively to verify the reliability of the presented approach. The main variables such as amount of extract and stirring time that affect the adsorbed hollow fiber-based biological fingerprinting process were optimized, and the repeatability of this method was also investigated. Finally, 12 potential active compounds in Danshen-Honghua decoction were successfully detected using the established approach and structures for nine of them were tentatively identified by liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry analysis. In addition, the in vitro platelet aggregation inhibition test was carried out for five of the nine hit compounds, and three active components, namely, lithospermic acid, salvianolic acid A, and salvianolic acid B were confirmed. These results proved that the proposed method could be an effective approach for screening platelet inhibitors from plant extracts.

Abstract
We describe a novel biomembrane affinity sample pretreatment technique to quickly screen and preconcentrate active components from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which adopts cell membrane coated silica particles (CMCSPs) as affinity ligands which benefit the biomembrane's ability to maximize simulation of drug-receptor interactions in vivo. In this study, the prepared CMCSPs formed by irreversible adsorption of fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) cell membrane on the surface of silica were characterized using different spectroscopic and imaging instruments. Drug binding experiments showed the excellent adsorption rate and adsorption capacity of FGFR4/CMCSPs compared with non-coated silica particles. The FGFR4/CMCSPs were used as solid-phase extraction sorbents to pretreat the TCM Aconitum szechenyianum Gay. The resultant FGFR4/CMCSPs exhibited good performance. In addition, high selectivity and recognition ability of the FGFR4/CMCSPs were determined by selectivity experiments. Four alkaloid were screened and identified, one of these alkaloid, napellonine, showed favorable anti-tumor activity in preliminary pharmacological verification trials including cell proliferation and molecular docking assays. The proposed cell membrane affinity sample pretreatment method is a reliable, effective and time-saving method for fast screening and enriching active compounds and can be extended to pretreat other TCMs as leading compounds resources.

Estimation of the toxicity of sulfadiazine to Daphnia magna using negligible depletion hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction independent of ambient pH. Sci Rep 2016; 6:39798. [PMID: 28004779 PMCID: PMC5177870 DOI: 10.1038/srep39798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2016] [Accepted: 11/29/2016] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The toxicity of ionizable organic compounds to organisms depends on the pH, which therefore affects risk assessments of these compounds. However, there is not a direct chemical method to predict the toxicity of ionizable organic compounds. To determine whether hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction (HF-LPME) is applicable for this purpose, a three-phase HF-LPME was used to measure sulfadiazine and estimate its toxicity to Daphnia magna in solutions of different pH. The result indicated that the sulfadiazine concentrations measured by HF-LPME decreased with increasing pH, which is consistent with the decreased toxicity. The concentration immobilize 50% of the daphnids (EC50) in 48 h calculated from nominal concentrations increased from 11.93 to 273.5 mg L−1 as the pH increased from 6.0 to 8.5, and the coefficient of variation (CV) of the EC50 values reached 104.6%. When calculated from the concentrations measured by HF-LPME (pH 12 acceptor phase), the EC50 ranged from 223.4 to 394.6 mg L−1, and the CV decreased to 27.60%, suggesting that the concentrations measured by HF-LPME can be used to estimate the toxicity of sulfadiazine irrespective of the solution pH.

Abstract
In this study, we performed a phenotypic screening in human endothelial cells exposed to oxidized low density lipoprotein (an in vitro model of atherosclerotic endothelial dysfunction) to identify the effective compounds in Shixiao San. After investigating the suitability and reliability of the cell-based screening method using atorvastatin as the positive control drug, this method was applied in screening Shixiao San and its extracts. The treatment of n-butanol fraction on endothelial cells exhibited stronger healing effects against oxidized low density lipoprotein-induced insult when compared with other fractions. Cell viability, the level of nitric oxide, endothelial nitric oxide synthase and endothelin-1 were measured, respectively. The assays revealed n-butanol fraction significantly elevated the survival ratio of impaired cells in culture. In parallel, n-butanol fraction exhibited the highest inhibition of inflammation. The generation of prostaglandin-2 and adhesion molecule (soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1) was obviously declined. Furthermore, n-butanol fraction suppressed the production of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, and restored the activity of superoxide dismutase. Compounds identification of the n-butanol fraction was carried out by ultra high liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry. The active ingredients including quercetin-3-O-(2G-α-l-rhamnosyl)-rutinoside, quercetin-3-O-neohesperidoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-neohesperidoside and isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside revealed the ability of anti-atherosclerosis after exposing on endothelial cells. The current work illustrated the pharmacology effect of Shixiao San and clearly indicated the major active components in Shixiao San. More importantly, the proposed cell-based screening method might be particularly suitable for fast evaluating the anti-atherosclerosis efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicines and screening out the interesting ingredients of Traditional Chinese Medicines.
