Abstract
The design of targeting agent-conjugated systems is attracting much attention in cell targeted delivery and cancer therapy. However, quantitative study of the ligand density and binding efficiency is still limited due to the technical matters and tedious work involved. In this article, benzoboroxole-modified core-shell magnetic nanoparticles (MSP-AOPB NPs) as a drug carrier model were fabricated and transferrin (Tf) was immobilized on the nanoparticle surface in a site-oriented manner (Tf-MSP-AOPB NPs). The preparation conditions were investigated in detail to optimize the Tf binding efficiency. A suitable reaction temperature, time or initial feeding amount could significantly increase the Tf binding amount. The maximum Tf binding amount on the MSP-AOPB NPs was 184 mg g-1, and the targeting ligand density on the surface could be well controlled by simply adjusting the reaction conditions. In vitro studies demonstrated the excellent Tf-mediated targeting ability and enhanced cellular uptake efficacy by varying the ligand density. The optimal ligand binding amount for achieving the highest cellular uptake efficiency was 94 mg Tf/g, which corresponds to a ligand binding density of about 0.05 Tf/nm2, and the binding efficiency of conjugation was higher than 90%. Moreover, Tf-MSP-AOPB NPs prepared by a site-oriented conjugation strategy showed the best cell targeting ability, and their cellular uptake amount was 25 and 127 times higher than that of physical adsorption and EDC/NHS coupling reaction in HepG2 cells, respectively. This study provides a facile site-oriented bioconjugation technique for different kinds of antibodies, and a suitable ligand density can be easily attained to enhance the cellular uptake efficacy, which shows great significance for targeted delivery and cancer therapy.

Abstract
The phenomenon of protein-protein association on multimodal chromatography resins was described for two different case study examples. The adsorption pattern of single-component solutions of calcium-rich alpha-lactalbumin (aLaCa) and calcium-depleted alpha-lactalbumin (aLa) and their mixtures with bovine serum albumin was determined on a multimodal anion-exchange chromatography medium. In single-component solutions, both aLaCa and aLa exhibited identical adsorption behavior at low resin loadings, whereas at high loadings the adsorption strength of aLa markedly exceeded that of alaCa. In binary mixtures, the adsorption of BSA enhanced at high concentrations of aLa or aLaCa in the adsorbed phase. The unusual adsorption patterns observed were attributed to the tendency of the proteins for molecular association in the adsorbed phase in single and binary solutions. The phenomena was examined for different pH of the solution: pH 6, 7, 8, and different solvent environments: phosphate buffer (PB), bis tris buffer (BT), 100 mM NaCl in BT and bis tris propane buffer (BTP). The strongest effect was observed for PB and for 100 mM NaCl in BT. Its occurrence was also evidenced for other case study example, i.e., adsorption of single-component solutions and binary mixtures of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) and lysozyme (LYZ) on a multimodal cation-exchange chromatography medium. The enhancement of adsorption of mAb was observed at high concentrations of LYZ in the adsorbed phase. To quantify the underlying effects, a mechanistic model was used, which accounted for both protein association and exclusion resulting from attractive and repulsive protein-protein iterations in the adsorbed phase.

Abstract
Phenylboronate chromatography has been employed for bioseparation applications though details concerning the mechanisms of interaction between the ligand and macromolecules remain widely unknown. Here, the phenomena underlying the adsorption of an anti-human interleukin-8 (anti-IL8) monoclonal antibody (mAb) onto an m-aminophenylboronic acid (m-APBA) ligand in the presence of different mobile-phase modulators (NaF/MgCl 2 /(NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 ) and under different pH values (7.5/8.5/9.0) is investigated. Flow microcalorimetry (FMC) is applied to measure instantaneous heat energy transfer, providing insights about the role of specific and nonspecific interactions involved in the adsorptive process. Results show that the adsorption of anti-IL8 mAb to m-APBA is enthalpically driven, corroborating the presence of the reversible esterification reaction between boronic acid or boronates and cis-diol-containing molecules. Nevertheless, for all mobile-phase modulators studied, changes in thermogram profiles are observed as well as reductions in the net heat of adsorption when increasing the pH. Overall, FMC and parallel chromatographic experiments data suggest that ligand salt tolerance could be enhanced using mobile-phase modulators, with all salts studied promoting the specific cis-diol interactions and reducing nonspecific interactions. The last feature is more noticeable at pH values above ligand's pK a , mainly due to the ability of NaF and (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 to diminish electrostatic interactions when compared to the commonly used NaCl.

Development of boronic acid-functionalized mesoporous silica-coated core/shell magnetic microspheres with large pores for endotoxin removal. J Chromatogr A 2019; 1602:91-99. [PMID: 31229248 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2019.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2019] [Revised: 06/01/2019] [Accepted: 06/02/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Endotoxins are found almost everywhere and possess high toxicity in vivo and in vitro. Here we design a novel boronate affinity material, called boronic acid-functionalized mesoporous silica-coated core/shell magnetic microspheres (Fe3O4@nSiO2@mSiO2-BA) with large pores (pore size > 20 nm) based on the chemical structure and physical properties of endotoxins, for facile and highly efficient removal of endotoxins. Dual modes for endotoxin removal were proposed and confirmed in this work: the endotoxin aggregates with size < 20 nm were bound with boronic acid ligands chemically modified on the inner and outer surface of the large pores of Fe3O4@nSiO2@mSiO2-BA microspheres; while the larger endotoxin micelles (size >20 nm) were absorbed on the outer surface of the prepared material based on boronate affinity. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy confirm that Fe3O4@nSiO2@mSiO2-BA microspheres possess core/shell structure, uniform diameter (520 nm), high surface area (205.57 m2/g), large mesopores (21.8 nm) and boronic acid ligands. The purification procedures of Fe3O4@nSiO2@mSiO2-BA microspheres for endotoxin were optimized, and 50 mM NH4HCO3 (pH 8.0) and 0.05 M fructose were selected as loading/washing, elution buffers, respectively. The binding capacity of Fe3O4@nSiO2@mSiO2-BA microspheres for endotoxin was calculated to be 60.84 EU/g under the optimized conditions. Finally, the established analytical method was applied to remove endotoxins from plasmid DNA. After endotoxin removal, the endotoxin content in plasmid DNA was reduced from 0.0026 to 0.0006 EU/mL for two-fold concentration, and from 0.0088 to 0.0022 EU/mL for five-fold concentration after binding, respectively. Additional advantages of the prepared boronate affinity material include excellent stability, reusability/repeatability, and low cost. Boronate affinity materials with large pores could thus prove to be powerful adsorbents for endotoxin removal and the potential applications in the aspects of biological research, pharmaceutical industry, and life health.

Abstract
Process chromatography forms the core of purification of biotherapeutics. The unparalleled
selectivity that it offers over other alternatives combined with the considerable robustness and scalability
make it the unit operation of choice in downstream processing. It is typical to have three to five chromatography
steps in a purification process for a biotherapeutic. Generally, these steps offer different modes
of separation such as ion-exchange, reversed phase, size exclusion, and hydrophobic interaction. In the
past decade, multimodal chromatography has emerged as an alternative to the traditional modes. It involves
use of more than one mode of separation and typically combines ion-exchange and hydrophobic
interactions to achieve selectivity and sensitivity. Over the last decade, numerous authors have demonstrated
the significant potential that multimode chromatography offers as a protein purification tool. This
review aims to present key recent developments that have occurred on this topic together with a perspective
on future applications of multimodal chromatography.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies currently dominate the biopharmaceutical market with growing sales having reached 80 billion USD in 2016. As most top-selling mAbs are approaching the end of their patent life, biopharmaceutical companies compete fiercely in the biosimilars market. These two factors present a strong motivation for alternative process strategies and process optimization. In this work a novel purification strategy for monoclonal antibodies comprising phenylboronic acid multimodal chromatography for capture followed by polishing by ion-exchange monolithic chromatography and packed bed hydrophobic interaction chromatography is presented and compared to the traditional protein-A-based process. Although the capital investment is similar for both processes, the operation cost is 20% lower for the novel strategy. This study shows that the new process is worthwhile investing in and could present a viable alternative to the platform process used by most industrial players.
