Abstract
Ferulic acid ethyl ester (FAEE) is an essential raw material for the formulation of drugs for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and leukopenia. It is also used as a fixed aroma agent for food production due to its high pharmacological activity. In this study, the interaction of FAEE with Human serum albumin (HSA) and Lysozyme (LZM) was characterized by multi-spectrum and molecular dynamics simulations at four different temperatures. Additionally, the quenching mechanism of FAEE-HSA and FAEE-LZM were explored. Meanwhile, the binding constants, binding sites, thermodynamic parameters, molecular dynamics, molecular docking binding energy, and the influence of metal ions in the system were evaluated. The results of Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, CD, three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum, and resonance light scattering showed that the microenvironment of HSA and LZM and the protein conformation changed in the presence of FAEE. Furthermore, the effects of some common metal ions on the binding constants of FAEE-HSA and FAEE-LZM were investigated. Overall, the experimental results provide a theoretical basis for promoting the application of FAEE in the cosmetics, food, and pharmaceutical industries and significant guidance for food safety, drug design, and development.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 277:134137. [PMID: 39067725 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134137] [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: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
Monitoring bovine serum albumin (BSA) at ultra-low levels is crucial for clinical and food safety applications, as it plays a significant role in identifying various health conditions and potential risks, necessitating fast, trace-level detection of BSA. This study proposes an approach to address these challenges by employing molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) to develop an ultra-trace-level and cost-effective BSA sensing platform. The MIP electrochemical sensor was developed using polyaniline (PANI) combined with the protein crosslinker glutaraldehyde (GA) to optimize BSA surface imprinting in the MIP. As a result, the sensor achieves a sensitivity of 1.24 μA/log(pg/mL), with a picomolar detectable limit of 2.3 pg/mL (0.035 pM) and a wide detection range from 20 pg/mL to 200,000 pg/mL (0.303 pM to 3030 pM), making it suitable for clinical and food safety applications. Additionally, the study explores the interaction between an acidic surfactant protein eluent (acetic acid with sodium dodecyl sulfate, AcOH-SDS) and BSA vacant sites, enhancing recognition and re-binding. The PANI-based MIP sensor demonstrates initial feasibility and practicality in commercial milk and real human serum, opening avenues for early disease detection and ensuring food safety in BSA-related immune responses.

Abstract
Information regarding protein expression and phosphorylation modifications in the bovine milk fat globule membrane is scarce, particularly throughout various lactation periods. This study employed a complete proteome and phosphoproteome between bovine colostrum and mature milk. A total of 11 proteins were seen in both protein expression and phosphorylation levels. There were 400 proteins identified in only protein expression, and 104 phosphoproteins identified in only phosphorylation levels. A total of 232 significant protein characteristics were identified within the proteome and significant phosphorylation sites within 86 phosphoproteins of the phosphoproteome. Biological activities and pathways primarily exhibited associations with the immune system. Simultaneously, a comprehensive analysis of proteins and phosphorylation sites using a multi-omics approach. Hence, the data we have obtained has the potential to expand our understanding of how the bovine milk fat globule membrane might be utilized as a beneficial component in dairy products.

Abstract
The present work explores the specificity of supramolecular assemblies comprising dialkylaminostyrylhetarene dye molecules incorporated into phosphatidylcholine (PC) or phosphatidylserine (PS) aggregates. In PS-based assemblies, the dyes demonstrate a concentration-dependent fluorescent response, distinguishing anionic proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) and pepsin from lysozyme (LYZ) in aqueous solutions. Conversely, no significant response is observed when the dyes are incorporated into the well-organized bilayers of neutral PC. The fluorescent response arises from the binding of dyes to proteins, leading to the detachment of dye molecules from the assemblies, rather than from the binding of proteins to the assemblies, although the latter process is facilitated by electrostatic attraction. Thus, both the poor ordering of PS molecules and the interfacial arrangement of the dyes are prerequisites for the fluorescent response of dye-PS aggregates. The structure of the dyes significantly impacts the spectral features of dye-PS and dye-protein assemblies. An optimal dye structure has been identified for the recognition of BSA, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10.8 nM.

Abstract
The clinical consequences of perioperative albumin extravasation accompanying major abdominal surgery remain underexplored. We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraoperative peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Parameters of albumin kinetics, including serum albumin concentration decrease (∆Alb) and extravasated albumin level (Albshift), were assessed from surgery until postoperative day (POD) 3. Logistic regression analysis identified factors associated with major complications. The association of albumin kinetics with major complications was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Serum albumin levels decreased during surgery and subsequently increased. Of the 121 analyzed patients, 25 (21%) developed major complications. The ∆Alb and Albshift during surgery and on POD 3 were greater in patients who developed major complications than in those who did not (12 ± 12 vs. 6 ± 14, p = 0.032, and 127.5 (71.9) vs. 48.5 (44.9), p < 0.001, respectively). Perioperative ∆Alb and Albshift were associated with major complications. The areas under the ROC curve of Albshift during the 3 days post-surgery and Albshift on POD 3 were 0.843 and 0.910, respectively. Albshift during the 3 days post-surgery and Albshift on POD 3 were correlated with complications (p < 0.05). In conclusion, perioperative albumin loss was associated with major complications in patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC. Albshift was associated with serious complications.

Abstract
Bovine serum albumin (BSA) has emerged as a biomarker for mammary gland health and cow quality, being recognized as a significant allergenic protein. In this study, a novel flexible molecular imprinted electrochemical sensor by surface electropolymerization using pyrrole (Py) as functional monomer, which can be better applied to the detection of milk quality marker BSA. Based on computational results, with regard to all polypyrrole (PPy) conformations and amino-acid positions within the protein, the BSA molecule remained firmly embedded into PPy polymers with no biological changes. The molecular imprinted electrochemical sensor displayed a broad linear detection range from 1.0 × 10-4 to 50 ng·mL-1 (R2 = 0.995) with a low detection limit (LOD) of 4.5 × 10-2 pg·mL-1. Additionally, the sensor was highly selective, reproducible, stable and recoverable, suggesting that it might be utilized for the evaluation of milk quality.

Abstract
The negative environmental and social impacts of food waste accumulation can be mitigated by utilizing bio-refineries' approach where food waste is revalorized into high-value products, such as prodigiosin (PG), using microbial bioprocesses. The diverse biological activities of PG position it as a promising compound, but its high production cost and promiscuous bioactivity hinder its wide application. Metal ions can modulate the electronic properties of organic molecules, leading to novel mechanisms of action and increased target potency, while metal complex formation can improve the stability, solubility and bioavailability of the parent compound. The objectives of this study were optimizing PG production through bacterial fermentation using food waste, allowing good quantities of the pure natural product for further synthesizing and evaluating copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes with it. Their antimicrobial and anticancer activities were assessed, and their binding affinity toward biologically important molecules, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and DNA was investigated by fluorescence emission spectroscopy and molecular docking. The yield of 83.1 mg/L of pure PG was obtained when processed meat waste at 18 g/L was utilized as the sole fermentation substrate. The obtained complexes CuPG and ZnPG showed high binding affinity towards target site III of BSA, and molecular docking simulations highlighted the affinity of the compounds for DNA minor grooves.

Abstract
Heavy metals cause serious toxic threats to both environment and human health. The multivariate, instrument-free, portable, and rapid detection strategy is crucial for determination of heavy metals. Herein, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) featured carbon dots (SN-CDs) were fabricated hydrothermally by optimizing co-doping precursors. With bright yellow emission at 560 nm, the SN-CDs were utilized for multivariate sensing Cu2+, Hg2+ and bovine serum albumin (BSA) based on AIE behavior and static quenching effect, with detection limits of 0.46 μmol·L-1, 25.8 nmol·L-1 and 1.52 μmol·L-1. A portable smartphone platform was constructed to enable portable, prompt, and sensitive analysis for Cu2+, Hg2+, and BSA via different strategies in real water and food samples with satisfied recovery. Moreover, a logic gate circuit was designed to provide the possibilities for utilization of intelligent facility. The proposed AIE SN-CDs possessing great contribution in preferable sensing performance, present promising prospects in real-time monitoring of environment and food safety.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-based systems are extensively investigated for drug delivery. Among others, with superior biocompatibility and enhanced targeting capacity, albumin appears to be a promising carrier for drug delivery. Albumin nanoparticles are highly favored in many disease therapies, as they have the proper chemical groups for modification, cell-binding sites for cell adhesion, and affinity to protein drugs for nanocomplex generation. Herein, this review summarizes the recent fabrication techniques, modification strategies, and application of albumin nanoparticles. We first discuss various albumin nanoparticle fabrication methods, from both pros and cons. Then, we provide a comprehensive introduction to the modification section, including organic albumin nanoparticles, metal albumin nanoparticles, inorganic albumin nanoparticles, and albumin nanoparticle-based hybrids. We finally bring further perspectives on albumin nanoparticles used for various critical diseases.

[PMID: 38465331 PMCID: PMC10924129 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The milk proteins from samples of 13 different animals were identified utilizing 4D-Label-Free proteomics technology, leading to the identification of a substantial number of proteins. Among the various samples, Chinese people (CHP) milk proteins exhibited the highest count, with 1149 distinct proteins. Simultaneously, we identified common proteins present in these animal milk. It's notable presence in goat milk contributes to enhancing infant infection resistance, showcasing the beneficial role of lactoperoxidase. Galectin-3 binding protein (Gal-3BP) and tetraspanin in human milk are significantly higher than those in other animals, which determine the prominent antiviral effect of human milk and the important processes related to cell transduction. Furthermore, human milk, camel milk, goat milk and sheep milk proved to be rich sources of milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) proteins. The insights obtained from this study can serve as a foundational framework for exploring the role of different animal milk proteins in disease treatment and the composition of infant formula.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e32228. [PMID: 38961950 PMCID: PMC11219308 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024] Open
Abstract
In this research, an innovative protocol is introduced to address crucial deficiencies in the formulation of chitosan nanoparticles (Cs NPs). While NPs show potential in drug delivery systems (DDSs), their application in the clinic is hindered by various drawbacks, such as toxicity, high material costs, and time-consuming and challenging preparation procedures. Within polymer-based NPs, Cs is a plentiful natural substance derived from the deacetylation of chitin, which can be sourced from the shells of shrimp or crab. Cs NPs can be formulated using the ionic gelation technique, which involves the use of a negatively charged agent, such as tripolyphosphate (TPP), as a crosslinking agent. Even though Cs is a cost-effective and biocompatible material, the formulation of Cs NPs with the correct size and surface electrical charge (zeta potential) presents a persistent challenge. In this study, various techniques were employed to analyze the prepared Cs NPs. The size and surface charge of the NPs were evaluated using dynamic light scattering (DLS). Morphological analysis was conducted using field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The chemical composition and formation of Cs NPs were investigated using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The stability analysis was confirmed through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Lastly, the biocompatibility of the NPs was assessed through cell cytotoxicity evaluation using the MTT assay. Moreover, here, 11 formulations with different parameters such as reaction pH, Cs:TPP ratio, type of Cs/TPP, and ultrasonication procedure were prepared. Formulation 11 was chosen as the optimized formulation based on its high stability of more than three months, biocompatibility, nanosize of 75.6 ± 18.24 nm, and zeta potential of +26.7 mV. To conclude, the method described here is easy and reproducible and can be used for facile preparation of Cs NPs with desirable physicochemical characteristics and engineering ideal platforms for drug delivery purposes.

Abstract
Many studies have demonstrated the manner in which ANS interacts with bovine serum albumin (BSA), although they are limited by the extremely low solubility of dye. The present study demonstrates the binding of ANSA dye with BSA, and since this dye can easily replace ANS, it not only simplifies research but also improves sensor accuracy for serum albumin. A combination of calorimetry and spectroscopy has been employed to establish the thermodynamic signatures associated with the interaction of ANSA with the protein and the consequent conformational changes in the latter. The results of differential scanning calorimetry reveal that when the concentration of ANSA in solution is increased, the thermal stability of the protein increases substantially. The fluorescence data demonstrated a decrease in the binding affinity of ANSA with the protein when pH increased but was unable to identify a change in the mode of interaction of the ligand. ITC has demonstrated that the mode of interaction between ANSA and the protein varies from a single set of binding sites at pH 5 and 7.4 to a sequential binding site at pH 10, emphasizing the potential relevance of protein conformational changes. TCSPC experiments suggested a dynamic type in the presence of ANSA. Molecular docking studies suggest that ANSA molecules are able to find ionic centers in the hydrophobic pockets of BSA. The findings further imply that given its ease of use in experiments, ANSA may be a useful probe for tracking the presence of serum albumin and partially folded protein states.

Abstract
One of the most significant reasons hindering the clinical translation of nanomedicines is the rapid clearance of intravenously injected nanoparticles by the mononuclear phagocyte system, particularly by Kupffer cells in the liver, leading to an inefficient delivery of nanomedicines for tumor treatment. The threshold theory suggests that the liver's capacity to clear nanoparticles is limited, and a single high dose of nanoparticles can reduce the hepatic clearance efficiency, allowing more nanomedicines to reach tumor tissues and enhance therapeutic efficacy. Building upon this theory, researchers have conducted numerous validation studies based on the same nanoparticle carrier systems. These studies involve the use of albumin nanoparticles to improve the therapeutic efficacy of albumin nanomedicines as well as polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified liposomal nanoparticles to enhance the efficacy of PEGylated liposomal nanomedicines. However, there is no research indicating the feasibility of the threshold theory when blank nanoparticles and nanomedicine belong to different nanoparticle carrier systems currently. In this study, we prepared two different sizes of albumin nanoparticles by using bovine serum albumin. We used the marketed nanomedicine liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride injection (trade name: LIBOD, manufacturer: Shanghai Fudan-zhangjiang Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), as the representative nanomedicine. Through in vivo experiments, we found that using threshold doses of albumin nanoparticles still can reduce the clearance rate of LIBOD, prolong its time in vivo, increase the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC), and also lead to an increased accumulation of the drug at the tumor site. Furthermore, evaluation of in vivo efficacy and safety further indicates that threshold doses of 100 nm albumin nanoparticles can enhance the antitumor effect of LIBOD without causing harm to the animals. During the study, we found that the particle size of albumin nanoparticles influenced the in vivo distribution of the nanomedicine at the same threshold dose. Compared with 200 nm albumin nanoparticles, 100 nm albumin nanoparticles more effectively reduce the clearance efficiency of LIBOD and enhance nanomedicine accumulation at the tumor site, warranting further investigation. This study utilized albumin nanoparticles to reduce hepatic clearance efficiency and enhance the delivery efficiency of nonalbumin nanocarrier liposomal nanomedicine, providing a new avenue to improve the efficacy and clinical translation of nanomedicines with different carrier systems.

Abstract
Gelatin and hydroxyapatite were assembled into polylactide porous matrix to prepare multicomponent porous composites for bone repair (PLA-gH). PLA-gH possessed a superior ability of mineralization. During simulated body fluids (SBF), the spherical Ca-P depositions on surface of PLA-gH became bulk as Ca/P decreased, while they locally turned into the rod with different variation in Ca/P during SBF containing bovine serum albumin (SBF-BSA), indicating that the mineralization of PLA-gH could be regulated by BSA. Meanwhile, PLA-gH possessed good degradation behaviour, especially in SBF-BSA, the degradation of PLA porous matrix was higher than that in SBF after 14-day immersion, whose crystallinity (Xc) decreased to a slightly lower level. Gelatin and hydroxyapatite endowed PLA-gH with good osteogenic property, characterized by obvious osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration. In terms of predicting the cytocompatibility, osteogenic differentiation and new bone mineralization of PLA-gH by in vitro methods, applying SBF-BSA may be more reliable than SBF.

Abstract
Bovine serum albumin nanofibrils (BSNs) were fabricated under thermal treatment (85 °C) at acidic condition (pH 2.0) and the incubation time on the structural, and physicochemical characteristics were probed. The formation and development of BSNs have been detected and confirmed by Thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) measurements. The structural alterations of bovine serum albumin (BSA) have also been investigated using intrinsic fluorescence and Congo red (CGR) UV-vis spectroscopy. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) outcomes displayed the morphologies of BSNs at varied time, with a diameter of about 3 nm and a contour length of about 200 nm at 24 h. The apparent viscosities of BSNs at three different pH were in the following order: pH 3.0 > pH 5.0 > pH 7.0. Emulsifying and foaming properties of BSA were pronouncedly enhanced through fibrillation, which was highly correlated with the interfacial properties and structural characteristics. Highest EAI 54.2 m2/g was attained at 48 h and no pronounced alterations were observed for EAI at 24 h and 48 h. Maximum value of FC was obtained at 48 h for BSA. This study will provide some useful information in understanding the formation of BSNs and broaden their application in food systems as functional food ingredients.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is an essential biomacromolecule in the blood circulatory system because it carries numerous molecules, including fatty acids (FAs), bilirubin, metal ions, hormones, and different pharmaceuticals, and plays a significant role in regulating blood osmotic pressure. Fluctuations in HSA levels in human biofluids, particularly urine and serum, are associated with several disorders, such as elevated blood pressure, diabetes mellitus (DM), liver dysfunction, and a wide range of renal diseases. Thus, the ability to quickly and accurately measure HSA levels is important for the rapid identification of these disorders in human populations. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), well known as artificial antibodies (Abs), have been extensively used for the quantitative detection of small molecules and macromolecules, especially HSA, in recent decades. This review highlights major challenges and recent developments in the application of MIPs to detect HSA in artificial and real samples. The fabrication and application of various MIPs for the depletion of HSA are also discussed, as well as different MIP preparation approaches and strategies for overcoming obstacles that hinder the development of MIPs with high efficiency and recognition capability for HSA determination/depletion.

Abstract
Proteins can be adsorbed on the air-water interface (AWI), and the structural changes in proteins at the AWI are closely related to the foaming properties of foods and beverages. However, how these structural changes in proteins at the AWI occur is not well understood. We developed a method for the structural assessment of proteins in the foam state using hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry. Adsorption sites and structural changes in human serum albumin (HSA) were identified in situ at the peptide-level resolution. The N-terminus and the loop (E492-T506), which contains hydrophobic amino acids, were identified as adsorption sites. Both the structural flexibility and hydrophobicity were considered to be critical factors for the adsorption of HSA at the AWI. Structural changes in HSA were observed after more than one minute of foaming and were spread widely throughout the structure. These structural changes at the foam AWI were reversible.

Abstract
Binding characteristics of potent non-nucleoside HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitors, 4-(2',6'-dimethyl-4'-formylphenoxy)-2-(5″-cyanopyridin-2″ylamino) quinoline (1) and 4-(2',6'-dimethyl-4'-cyanophenoxy)-2-(5″-cyanopyridin-2″ylamino) quinoline (2), to bovine serum albumin (BSA) under simulative physiological conditions were investigated by multiple spectroscopic and computational methods. The experimental results demonstrated that (1) and (2) bound to BSA at site III (subdomain IB), and quenched BSA fluorescence through a static quenching process. The binding interaction of (1) or (2) to BSA forms stable complexes with the binding constants (Kb) at the level of 104 L/mol and the number of binding site was determined to be 1 for both systems, indicating that new synthesized compounds occupied one site in BSA with moderate binding affinities. Based on the analysis of the thermodynamic parameters, it can be indicated that the main binding forces for interaction between BSA and both compounds were hydrogen bonding and van der Waals force. Synchronous fluorescence results revealed that the interaction of two compounds with BSA led to modifications in the microenvironment surrounding tryptophan residue of BSA. Circular dichroism spectra demonstrated alterations in the secondary structure of BSA induced by (1) and (2). Moreover, the experimental data of molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations supported the results obtained from multiple spectroscopic techniques, confirming the binding interactions between both compounds and BSA.

Abstract
Polysaccharide based self-healing and injectable hydrogels with reversible characteristics have widespread potential in protein drug delivery. However, it is a challenge to design the dynamic hydrogel for sequential release of protein drugs. Herein, we developed a novel mussel inspired sequential protein delivery dynamic polysaccharide hydrogel. The nanocomposite hydrogel can be fabricated through doping polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) into reversible covalent bond (imine bonds) crosslinked polymer networks of oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CEC), named PDA NPs@OHA-l-CEC. Besides multiple capabilities (i.e., injection, self-healing, and biodegradability), the nanocomposite hydrogel can achieve sustained and sequential protein delivery of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). PDA NPs doped in hydrogel matrix serve dual roles, acting as secondary protein release structures and form dynamic non-covalent interactions (i.e., hydrogen bonds) with polysaccharides. Moreover, by adjusting the oxidation degree of OHA, the hydrogels with different crosslinking density could control overall protein release rate. Analysis of different release kinetic models revealed that Fickian diffusion drove rapid VEGF release, while the slower BSA release followed a Super Case II transport mechanism. The novel biocompatible system achieved sequential release of protein drugs has potentials in multi-stage synergistic drug deliver based on dynamic hydrogel.

Abstract
Dacomitinib (DAC), as a member of tyrosine kinase inhibitors is primarily used to treat non-small cell lung cancer. The intermolecular interaction between DAC and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was comprehended with the help of experiments and theoretical simulations. The outcomes indicated that DAC quenched the endogenous fluorescence of BSA through static quenching mode. In the binding process, DAC was preferentially inserted into the hydrophobic cavity of BSA subdomain IA (site III), and a fluorescence-free DAC-BSA complex with molar ratio of 1:1 was generated. The outcomes confirmed that DAC had a stronger affinity on BSA and the non-radiative energy transfer occurred in the combination process of two. And, it can be inferred from the outcomes of thermodynamic parameters and competition experiments with 8-aniline-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (ANS) and D-(+)- sucrose that hydrogen bonds (H-bonds), van der Waals forces (vdW) and hydrophobic forces had a significant impact in inserting DAC into the hydrophobic cavity of BSA. The outcomes from multi-spectroscopic measurements that DAC could affect the secondary structure of BSA, that was, α-helix content decreased slightly from 51.0% to 49.7%. Moreover, the combination of DAC and BSA led to a reduction in the hydrophobicity of the microenvironment around tyrosine (Tyr) residues in BSA while had little influence on the microenvironment of around tryptophan (Trp) residues. The outcomes from molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation further demonstrated the insertion of DAC into site III of BSA and hydrogen energy and van der Waals energy were the dominant energy of DAC-BSA stability. In addition, the influence of metal ions (Fe3+, Cu2+, Co2+, etc.) on the affinity of the system was explored.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The fluorescent probe method has attracted significant research attention due to its high sensitivity and reproducibility in detecting bovine serum albumin (BSA). In this study, we constructed a fluorescent probe for BSA detection by assembling an amphiphilic organic fluorescent molecule, termed 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole (HBT-11), with BSA. In an aqueous solution, HBT-11 exhibited a weak fluorescence emission at 501 nm. However, the addition of BSA substantially enhanced the fluorescence emission at 501 nm, indicating that the assembly was driven by electrostatic interactions between HBT-11 and BSA. HBT-11, serving as a fluorescent probe for BSA detection, demonstrated a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 3.92 nmol L-1, excellent photostability, high selectivity, and robust anti-interference capability. Notably, we successfully applied HBT-11 for detecting BSA in fetal bovine serum and selectively imaging BSA in HeLa cells.

Abstract
Fiber optic interferometry combined with recognizing elements has attracted intensive attention for the development of different biosensors due to its superior characteristic features. However, the immobilization of sensing elements alone is not capable of low-concentration detection due to weak interaction with the evanescent field of the sensing transducer. The utilization of different 2D materials with high absorption potential and specific surface area can enhance the intensity of the evanescent field and hence the sensitivity of the sensor. Here, a biosensor has been fabricated using an inline hetero fiber structure of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) and single-mode fiber (SMF) functionalized with a nanocomposite of molybodenum di-sulfide (MoS2) and molecular imprinting polymer (MIP) to detect trace levels of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The sensor showed a wide dynamic detection range with a high sensitivity of 2.34 × 107 pm/µg L-1. It shows working potential over a wide pH range with a subfemtomolar detection limit. The compact size, easy fabrication, stable structure, long detection range, and high sensitivity of this sensor would open a new path for the development of different biosensors for online and remote sensing applications.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA), a mycotoxin found in various food items, possesses significant health risks due to its carcinogenic and toxic properties. Thus, detecting OTA is crucial to ensure food safety. Among the reported analytical methods, there has yet to be one that achieves fast, selective, and portable detection of OTA. In this study, we explore a novel supramolecular sensor, DOCE@ALB, utilizing human serum albumin as the host and a flavonoid fluorescent indicator as the guest. On the basis of indicator displacement assay, this sensor boasts an ultra-fast response time of just 5 s, high sensitivity with a limit of detection at 0.39 ppb, exceptional selectivity, and a noticeable ratiometric fluorescence response to OTA. This discernible color change and portability of the sensor make it suitable for on-site OTA detection in real food samples, including flour, beer, and wine, simply using a smartphone. In comparison to previously reported methods, our approach has showcased notable advantages in both response time and portability, addressing a critical need for food safety and regulatory compliance.

Abstract
Albumin, being the most abundant serum protein, has the potential to significantly enhance the physicochemical properties of therapeutic payloads, thereby improving their pharmacological effects. Apart from its passive transport via the enhanced permeability and retention effect, albumin can actively accumulate in tumor microenvironments or inflammatory tissues via receptor-mediated processes. This unique property makes albumin a promising scaffold for targeted drug delivery. This review focuses on exploring different delivery strategies that combine albumin with drug payloads to achieve targeted therapy for inflammatory diseases. Also, albumin-derived therapeutic products on the market or undergoing clinical trials in the past decade have been summarized to gain insight into the future development of albumin-based drug delivery systems. Given the involvement of inflammation in numerous diseases, drug delivery systems utilizing albumin demonstrate remarkable advantages, including enhanced properties, improved in vivo behavior and efficacy. Albumin-based drug delivery systems have been demonstrated in clinical trials, while more advanced strategies for improving the capacity of drug delivery systems with the help of albumin remain to be discovered. This could pave the way for biomedical applications in more effective and precise treatments.

Abstract
Ginger is a highly valued herb, renowned globally for its rich content of phenolic compounds. It has been traditionally used to treat various health conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, digestive issues, migraines, Alzheimer's disease, tumor reduction and chronic inflammation. Despite its potential medicinal applications, the therapeutic effectiveness of ginger is hindered by its limited availability and low plasma concentration levels. In this study, we explored the interaction of ginger's primary phenolic compounds, specifically 6-gingerol (6 G), 8-gingerol (8 G) and 10-gingerol (10 G), with plasma proteins which are human serum albumin (HSA) and α-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP). These two plasma proteins significantly influence drug distribution and disposition as they are key binding sites for most drugs. Fluorescence emission spectra indicated strong binding of 6, 8 and 10 G with HSA, with binding constants of 2.03 ± 0.01 × 104 M-1, 4.20 ± 0.01 × 104 M-1 and 6.03 ± 0.01 × 106 M-1, respectively. However, the binding of gingerols with AGP was found to be negligible. Molecular displacement by site-specific probes and molecular docking analyses revealed that gingerols bind at the IIA domain, with stability provided by hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, conventional hydrogen bonds, carbon-hydrogen bonds, alkyl and Pi-alkyl interactions. Further, the partial unfolding of the protein was observed upon binding the gingerol compound with HSA. In addition, molecular dynamic simulations demonstrated that gingerols remained stable in the subdomain IIA over 100 ns. This stability, coupled with Molecular Mechanics Generalized Born Surface Area indicating free energies of -43.765, -57.504 and -66.69 kcal/mol for 6, 8 and 10 G, respectively, reinforces the robust binding potential of these compounds. Circular dichroism studies suggested that the interaction of gingerols leads to the minimal transformation of HSA secondary structure, with the pattern being 10 G > 8 G > 6 G, a finding further substantiated by root mean square deviation and root mean square fluctuation fluctuations. These results propose that HSA has a stronger affinity to gingerols than AGP, which could have significant implications on the therapeutic circulating levels of gingerols.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Alpelisib (ALP) is a potent anti-cancer drug showing promising activity against advanced breast cancers. Hence, profound understanding of its binding dynamics within the physiological system is vital. Herein, we have investigated interaction of ALP with human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) using spectroscopic techniques like absorption, fluorescence, time-resolved, synchronous and 3D-fluorescence, FRET, FT-IR, CD, and molecular docking studies. The intrinsic fluorescence of both BSA and HSA quenched significantly by ALP with an appreciable red shift in its emission maxima. Stern-Volmer analysis showed increase in Ksv with temperature indicating involvement of dynamic quenching process. This was further validated by no significant change in absorption spectrum of BSA and HSA (at 280 nm) upon ALP interaction, and by results of fluorescence time-resolved lifetime studies. ALP exhibited moderately strong binding affinity with BSA (of the order 106 M-1) and HSA (of the order 105 M-1), and the major forces accountable for stabilizing the interactions are hydrophobic forces. Competitive drug binding experiments and molecular docking suggested that ALP binds to site I in subdomain IIA of BSA and HSA. The Förster distance r was found to be less than 8 nm and 0.5 Ro < r < 1.5 Ro which suggests possible energy transfer between donors BSA/HSA and acceptor ALP. Synchronous and 3D-fluoresecnce, FT-IR and CD studies indicated that ALP induces conformational changes of BSA and HSA upon interaction.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is becoming one of the major causes of morbidity and mortalities in 21st century. We have developed a bioengineered cellulosic paper device for the quantification of albumin (ALB) in physiological samples. The paper surface was activated and antibodies specific to target biomarker was immobilized on engineered paper surface. Every step after modification was characterized by FTIR, XPS, SPM and optical analysis. Further, the device model was designed using CAD file, and a 3-D cascade device was fabricated with in-built constant light source to provide proper and controlled environment for in-situ image analysis. After adding the sample on the bioengineered paper, the antigen-antibody reaction takes place, after that addition of dye results in change of color from yellow to blueish-green within 40 s. An optical method was employed for the analysis of the images by recognizing the specific area and the color intensity. Additionally, the immunosensor specificity was evaluated on number of molecules that are usually found in the serum sample. The linear dynamic range of the developed immunosensor has been reported to be 1-60 mg/mL, covering the normal as well as clinical range of ALB in physiological samples with a detection limit of 0.049(±0.002) mg/mL. With good precision and recovery, the device was able to successfully determine the ALB concentrations in serum sample. The developed device has simple and user-friendly interface and it may also help diagnosing CKD in personalized settings.

Abstract
Melanoma is the most aggressive and lethal type of skin cancer due to its characteristics such as high metastatic potential and low response rate to existing treatment modalities. In this way, new drug prototypes are being studied to solve the problem of treating patients with melanoma. Among these, ruthenium-based metallopharmaceuticals may be promising alternatives due to their antitumor characteristics and low systemic toxicity. In this context, the present study evaluated the antineoplastic effect of the ruthenium complex [Ru(mtz)(dppe)2]PF6-2-mercaptothiazoline-di-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphine) ethaneruthenium(II), namely RuMTZ, on human melanoma (A-375) and murine (B16-F10) cells, considering different approaches. Through XTT colorimetric and clonogenic efficiency assays, the complex revealed the selective cytotoxic activity, with the lowest IC50 (0.4 µM) observed for A375 cells. RuMTZ also induced changes in cell morphology, increased cell population in the sub-G0 phase and inhibiting cell migration. The levels of γH2AX and cleaved caspase 3 proteins were increased in both cell lines treated with RuMTZ. These findings indicated that the cytotoxic activity of RuMTZ on melanoma cells is related, at least in part, to the induction of DNA damage and apoptosis. Therefore, RuMTZ exhibited promising antineoplastic activity against melanoma cells.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128692. [PMID: 38092120 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128692] [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: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Our previous study revealed that green tea polysaccharide conjugate (gTPC) has emulsion effect, but its emulsifying ability is weak. In order to improve the emulsification ability of gTPC, gTPC and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were combined to form five different mass proportions of the TPC/BSA (TB) complex: TPC/BSA: 5:1, 5:2, 5:3, 5:4, and 5:5 w/w. We observed that the 5:5 w/w TB emulsion was more hydrophobic and surface-active. Furthermore, the emulsions prepared using 50.00 wt% medium-chain triglycerides exhibited the best stability. In addition, the TB emulsion exhibited stability in adverse environments of pH, salt, and heat; in particular, under salt conditions, no significant changes were observed in zeta potential. Subsequently, in vitro simulated digestion experiments were performed to investigate the use of TB emulsions for β-carotene encapsulation. We observed that the encapsulation efficiency for β-carotene was approximately 90.0 %; it was subsequently released in the intestine.

Abstract
Sodium acid pyrophosphate (SAPP) food additive is widely used as a preservative, bulking agent, chelating agent, emulsifier and pH regulator. It is also used as an improver of color and water retention capacity in the processing of various types of seafood, canned food, cooked meat and flour products. For the first time, we evaluated the SAPP interaction with bovine serum albumin (BSA) using spectroscopic methods including UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence spectroscopy, and surface plasmon resonance, and docking analysis to understand the mechanisms of complex formation and binding. The fluorescence intensity of BSA reduces when titrated with various concentrations of SAPP by forming a complex with BSA via a static quenching mechanism. The binding constant between BSA and SAPP decreased from 123,300 to 15,800 (M-1) with rising temperature, which indicates a decrement in complex formation owing to the interaction of SAPP with BSA. A negative ΔG° value means that SAPP binds spontaneously to BSA at all temperatures, and both ΔH° and ΔS° negative values indicate that hydrogen bonds (H-bonding) and van der Waals forces are the primary forces involved in the binding processes. The UV-Vis spectrum of BSA reduced upon increasing SAPP concentrations due to forming a new ground state complex between SAPP and BSA. Molecular docking study shows that residues Arg256, Ser259, Ser286, Ile 289 and Ala 290 play an important role in SAPP binding process to site I (subdomain IIA) of BSA through H-bonding and van der Waals forces, which is supported by the thermodynamic study.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
The use of biomaterials in implanted medical devices remains hampered by platelet adhesion and blood coagulation. Thrombus formation is a prevalent cause of failure of these blood-contacting devices. Although systemic anticoagulant can be used to support materials and devices with poor blood compatibility, its negative effects such as an increased chance of bleeding, make materials with superior hemocompatibility extremely attractive, especially for long-term applications. This review examines blood-surface interactions, the pathogenesis of clotting on blood-contacting medical devices, popular surface modification techniques, mechanisms of action of anticoagulant coatings, and discusses future directions in biomaterial research for preventing thrombosis. In addition, this paper comprehensively reviews several novel methods that either entirely prevent interaction between material surfaces and blood components or regulate the reaction of the coagulation cascade, thrombocytes, and leukocytes.

Whey proteins as multifunctional food materials: Recent advancements in hydrolysis, separation, and peptidomimetic approaches. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e13288. [PMID: 38284584 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13288] [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: 07/21/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
Whey protein derived bioactives, including α-lactalbumin, ß-lactoglobulin, bovine serum albumin, lactoferrin, transferrin, and proteose-peptones, have exhibited wide ranges of functional, biological and therapeutic properties varying from anticancer, antihypertensive, and antimicrobial effects. In addition, their functional properties involve gelling, emulsifying, and foaming abilities. For these reasons, this review article is framed to understand the relationship existed in between those compound levels and structures with their main functional, biological, and therapeutic properties exhibited either in vitro or in vivo. The impacts of hydrolysis mechanism and separation techniques in enhancing those properties are likewise discussed. Furthermore, special emphasize is given to multifunctional effects of whey derived bioactives and their future trends in ameliorating further food, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical products. The underlying mechanism effects of those properties are still remained unclear in terms of activity levels, efficacy, and targeted effectiveness. For these reasons, some important models linking to functional properties, thermal properties and cell circumstances are established. Moreover, the coexistence of radical trapping groups, chelating groups, sulfhydryl groups, inhibitory groups, and peptide bonds seemed to be the key elements in triggering those functions and properties. Practical Application: Whey proteins are the byproducts of cheese processing and usually the exploitation of these food waste products has increasingly getting acceptance in many countries, especially European countries. Whey proteins share comparable nutritive values to milk products, particularly on their richness on important proteins that can serve immune protection, structural, and energetic roles. The nutritive profile of whey proteins shows diverse type of bioactive molecules like α-lactalbumin, ß-lactoglobulin, lactoferrin, transferrin, immunoglobulin, and proteose peptones with wide biological importance to the living system, such as in maintaining immunological, neuronal, and signaling roles. The diversification of proteins of whey products prompted scientists to exploit the real mechanisms behind of their biological and therapeutic effects, especially in declining the risk of cancer, tumor, and further complications like diabetes type 2 and hypertension risk effects. For these reasons, profiling these types of proteins using different proteomic and peptidomic approaches helps in determining their biological and therapeutic targets along with their release into gastrointestinal tract conditions and their bioavailabilities into portal circulation, tissue, and organs. The wide applicability of those protein fractions and their derivative bioactive products showed significant impacts in the field of emulsion and double emulsion stabilization by playing roles as emulsifying, surfactant, stabilizing, and foaming agents. Their amphoteric properties helped them to act as excellent encapsulating agents, particularly as vehicle for delivering important vitamins and bioactive compounds. The presence of ferric elements increased their transportation to several metal-ions in the same time increased their scavenging effects to metal-transition and peroxidation of lipids. Their richness with almost essential and nonessential amino acids makes them as selective microbial starters, in addition their richness in sulfhydryl amino acids allowed them to act a cross-linker in conjugating further biomolecules. For instance, conjugating gold-nanoparticles and fluorescent materials in targeting diseases like cancer and tumors in vivo is considered the cutting-edges strategies for these versatile molecules due to their active diffusion across-cell membrane and the presence of specific transporters to these therapeutic molecules.

Interaction between a water-soluble anionic porphyrin and human serum albumin unexpectedly stimulates the aggregation of the photosensitizer at the surface of the albumin. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128210. [PMID: 37992936 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
The 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-difluoro-3-sulfophenyl)porphyrin (TDFPPS4) was reported as a potential photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy. The capacity of the photosensitizers to be carried in the human bloodstream is predominantly determined by its extension of binding, binding location, and binding mechanism to human serum albumin (HSA), influencing its biodistribution and ultimately its photodynamic therapy efficacy in vivo. Thus, the present work reports a biophysical characterization on the interaction between the anionic porphyrin TDFPPS4 and HSA by UV-visible absorption, circular dichroism, steady-state, time-resolved, and synchronous fluorescence techniques under physiological conditions, combined with molecular docking calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. The interaction HSA:TDFPPS4 is spontaneous (ΔG° < 0), strong, and enthalpically driven (ΔH° = -70.1 ± 3.3 kJ mol-1) into subdomain IIA (site I). Curiously, despite the porphyrin binding into an internal pocket, about 50 % of TDFPPS4 structure is still accessible to the solvent, making aggregation in the bloodstream possible. In silico calculations were reinforced by spectroscopic data indicating porphyrin aggregation between bound and unbound porphyrins. This results in an adverse scenario for anionic porphyrins to achieve their therapeutical potential as photosensitizers and control of effective dosages. Finally, a trend of anionic porphyrins to have a combination of quenching mechanisms (static and dynamic) was noticed.

Abstract
Inspired by protein post-translational modification (PTM), post-imprinting modification (PIM) has been proposed and developed to prepare novel molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), which are similar to functionalized biosynthetic proteins. The PIM involves site-directed modifications in the imprinted cavity of the MIP, such as introducing high-affinity binding sites and introducing fluorescent signal molecules. This modification makes the MIP further functionalized and improves the shortcomings of general molecular imprinting, such as single function, low selectivity, low sensitivity, and inability to fully restore the complex function of natural antibodies. This paper describes the characteristics of PIM strategies, reviews the latest research progress in the recognition and detection of protein biomarkers such as lysozyme, prostate-specific antigen, alpha-fetoprotein, human serum albumin, and peptides, and further discusses the importance, main challenges, and development prospects of PIM. The PIM technology has the potential to develop a new generation of biomimetic recognition materials beyond natural antibodies. It can be used in bioanalysis and other multitudinous fields for its unique features in molecule recognition.

Abstract
Bovine serum albumin (BSA)-based biomaterials have garnered significant attention for their remarkable potential in wound healing, primarily due to their effective biological actions in addressing the skin inflammation phase and mitigating hypoalbuminemia. Motivated by these attributes, a nanocomposite hydrogel is developed by blending BSA with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), complemented by the incorporation of graphene quantum dot (GQD). The FTIR study establishes a hydrogen-bonding interaction between the -NH2 groups of BSA and the -OH group of PVA. Microscopic investigations establish that the dispersion of GQDs with an average size of 22.5 nm results in smoothening of the surface of the nanocomposite. The nanocomposite hydrogel reveals excellent swelling attributes of about 920% in a period of 6 h due to its optimum cross-linking condition. Furthermore, the hydrogel exhibits a water vapor transmission rate of 8.45 mg cm-2 h-1, akin to the transmission rate of wounded skin. The PVA/BSA@GQD nanocomposite's antibacterial efficacy is evaluated against Morganella morganii bacteria, showing 99% killing, while its cytotoxicity assay against HeLa cells exhibited a minimum cell viability of 76% at a 20 μM concentration, which is ideal for a wound dressing material. In vivo wound healing investigations are conducted on Drosophila, showcasing a 100% wound surface closure within 4 h. This outcome is further substantiated through in vivo studies involving mice, where complete re-epithelialization is achieved within a span of 13 days. The combined results establish the PVA/BSA@GQD nanocomposite as a potential wound dressing material.

Abstract
Drug bioavailability is a crucial aspect of pharmacology, affecting the effectiveness of drug therapy. Understanding how drugs are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated in patients' bodies is essential to ensure proper and safe treatment. This publication aims to highlight the relevance of drug bioavailability research and its importance in therapy. In addition to biochemical activity, bioavailability also plays a critical role in achieving the desired therapeutic effects. This may seem obvious, but it is worth noting that a drug can only produce the expected effect if the proper level of concentration can be achieved at the desired point in a patient's body. Given the differences between patients, drug dosages, and administration forms, understanding and controlling bioavailability has become a priority in pharmacology. This publication discusses the basic concepts of bioavailability and the factors affecting it. We also looked at various methods of assessing bioavailability, both in the laboratory and in the clinic. Notably, the introduction of new technologies and tools in this field is vital to achieve advances in drug bioavailability research. This publication also discusses cases of drugs with poorly described bioavailability, providing a deeper understanding of the complex challenges they pose to medical researchers and practitioners. Simultaneously, the article focuses on the perspectives and trends that may shape the future of research regarding bioavailability, which is crucial to the development of modern pharmacology and drug therapy. In this context, the publication offers an essential, meaningful contribution toward understanding and highlighting bioavailability's role in reliable patient treatment. The text also identifies areas that require further research and exploration.

Abstract
Two different systems of bovine serum albumin (BSA) were used for multiple spectroscopic and computational studies to determine interaction of BSA and atropine (Atrop), that is, BSA-Atrop system and Atrop-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (Atrop@CS NPs), that is, BSA-Atrop@CS NPs system. The study suggests that BSA-Atrop system and BSA-Atrop@CS NPs system involve non-fluorescent complexes of Ksv = 3.2 × 103 Lmol-1 and 3.1 × 104 Lmol-1, kq = 3.2 × 1011 Lmol-1 s-1 and 3.1 × 1012 Lmol-1 s-1, the binding constant Kb = 1.4 × 103 Lmol-1, 2.0 × 102 Lmol-1, respectively, and number of binding sites n ∼ 1 for both the systems. The negligible conformational changes induced in BSA were also observed. Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopic study revealed that more quenching occurred in intrinsic fluorescence of tryptophan (Trp, W) than that in tyrosine residue (Tyr, Y). UV-vis spectroscopic study verified the presence of static quenching from the presence of BSA-Atrop and BSA-Atrop@CS NPs complexes. CD spectra confirmed the conformational changes induced in BSA upon increment of concentrations of Atrop and Atrop@CS NPs separately into the constant concentration of BSA. The coherent observations from various spectroscopic studies were in agreement with those of computational study, showing BSA-Atrop complex formation and other related details. The hydrogen bonds (H-bonds), van der Walls (vdW) interactions and π -type of interactions were mainly involved in stabilization of the formed BSA-Atrop complex.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

[PMID: 37632263 DOI: 10.1002/biot.202300279] [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: 06/18/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a globular non-glycoprotein that has gotten a lot of attention because of its unique properties like biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-immunogenicity, non-toxicity, and strong resemblance to the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). Given its robust mechanical properties, such as interfacial tension, conductivity, swelling resistance, and viscoelasticity, it can be concluded that it is an appropriate matrix for producing novel BSA-based nanoconstructs. Thus, simple analytic methods are required for accurately detecting BSA as a model protein in medical sciences and healthcare. Furthermore, the characteristics mentioned above aid BSA in the electrospinning process, which results in fibers conjugated with other polymers. Electrospun synthesis has recently received much attention for its ability to produce stable, biomimicking, highly porous, 3D BSA-derived nano-fibers. As a result, BSA-based nano-fibers have achieved exclusive developments in the medical sector, such as tissue engineering for the remodeling of damaged tissue or organ repair by creating artificial ones. Meanwhile, they could be used as drug delivery systems (DDS) for target-specific drug delivery, wound dressings, and so on. This study illustrates the structural and physicochemical properties of BSA and the determination of BSA using various methods, by citing recent reports and current developments in the medical field. Furthermore, current challenges and future directions are also highlighted.

Investigating sulfonamides - Human serum albumin interactions: A comprehensive approach using multi-spectroscopy, DFT calculations, and molecular docking. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 683:149108. [PMID: 37862782 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.10.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023]
Abstract
The environmental and health risks associated with sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) are receiving increasing attention. Through multi-spectroscopy, density functional theory (DFT), and molecular docking, this study investigated the interaction features and mechanisms between six representative SAs and human serum albumin (HSA). Multi-spectroscopy analysis showed that the six SAs had significant binding capabilities with HSA. The order of binding constants at 298 K was as follows: sulfadoxine (SDX): 7.18 × 105 L mol-1 > sulfamethizole (SMT): 6.28 × 105 L mol-1 > sulfamerazine (SMR): 2.70 × 104 L mol-1 > sulfamonomethoxine (SMM): 2.54 × 104 L mol-1 > sulfamethazine (SMZ): 3.06 × 104 L mol-1 > sulfadimethoxine (SDM): 2.50 × 104 L mol-1. During the molecular docking process of the six SAs with HSA, the binding affinity range is from -7.4 kcal mol-1 to -8.6 kcal mol-1. Notably, the docking result of HSA-SDX reached the maximum of -8.6 kcal mol-1, indicating that SDX may possess the highest binding capacity to HSA. HSA-SDX binding, identified as a static quenching and exothermic process, is primarily driven by hydrogen bonds (H bonds) or van der Waals (vdW) interactions. The quenching processes of SMR/SMZ/SMM/SDX/SMT to HSA are a combination of dynamic and static quenching, indicating an endothermic reaction. Hydrophobic interactions are primarily accountable for SMR/SMZ/SMM/SDX/SMT and HSA binding. Competition binding results revealed that the primary HSA-SAs binding sites are in the subdomain IB of the HAS structure, consistent with the results of molecule docking. The correlation analysis based on DFT calculations revealed an inherent relationship between the structural chemical features of SAs and the binding performance of HSA-SAs. The dual descriptor (DD) and the electrophilic Fukui function were found to have a significant relationship (0.71 and -0.71, respectively) with the binding constants of HSA-SAs, predicting the binding performance of SAs and HSA. These insights have substantial scientific value for evaluating the environmental risks of SAs as well as understanding their impact on biological life activities.

Abstract
In a novel approach that capitalized on the differential solubility product (Ksp) of ZnSe and Ag2Se, a unique ZnSe/Ag2Se binary heterostructure was efficiently synthesized in situ. ZnSe/Ag2Se exhibited excellent antimicrobial efficiency under visible light. Incorporating Ag2Se into ZnSe significantly enhanced the photoelectric performance of the catalyst, greatly accelerating the separation of the photogenerated electrons in the system. Active species removal experiments determined that ·O2- and H2O2 played crucial roles in photocatalytic antibacterial efficiency. Further investigation into the levels of cellular membrane peroxidation, bacterial morphology, and intracellular contents concentration revealed that during the photocatalytic antimicrobial process, reactive oxygen species initially oxidize phospholipids in the cell membrane, leading to damage to the external structure of the cell and leakage of the intracellular contents, ultimately resulting in bacteria inactivation. The photocatalytic antimicrobial process of ZnSe/Ag2Se fundamentally deviates from conventional methods, offering new insights into efficient disinfection and photocatalytic antimicrobial mechanisms.

Abstract
Ingenious nanomaterials with improved biocompatibility and multifunctional properties are gaining vital significance in biomedical applications, including advanced drug delivery and nanotheranostics. In a biological system, these nanoparticles interact with serum proteins forming a dynamic corona that affects their biological or toxicological properties producing undesirable effects. Thus, the current study focuses on the synthesis of sulphur-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO/S NPs) and characterizing their mechanism of interaction with serum proteins using multispectroscopic approach. ZnO/S NPs were synthesized by employing a co-precipitation approach and characterized using various analytical techniques. The results of interaction studies demonstrated that ZnO/S NPs interact with serum albumins via the static quenching process. Analysis of thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) revealed that the binding process is spontaneous, exothermic and van der Waals force or hydrogen bonding plays a major role. The interaction of ZnO/S NPs with tyrosine residue in bovine serum albumin was established by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the results of UV-visible, circular dichroism, Fourier transform infrared, Forster's resonance energy transfer theory and dynamic light scattering spectroscopic studies revealed that the ZnO/S NPs interact with albumin by inducing the conformational changes in secondary structure and reducing the α-helix content.

Abstract
The quest to enhance Raman spectroscopic signals through the rational design of plasmonic substrates has enabled the detection and characterization of pharmaceutically important molecules with low scattering cross-sections, such as amino acids and proteins, and is helping in making forays into the diverse field of biomedical sciences. This work presents a simple strategy for synthesizing silver nanoparticles-incorporated alumina nanofibers (Ag-AlNFs) utilizing controlled microwave synthesis for enhancing the surface-enhanced Raman chemical enhancement factor through photo-induced charge accumulation at the plasmonic-dielectric interface. The plasmonic-dielectric fibers serve as excellent charge carrier trappers, as evident from the ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy studies. Apart from chemical enhancement, the increase in electronic surface charge also enables the protein disulfide bonds to capture these electrons and form a transient disulfide electron adduct radical, which converts to free thiol radical on dissociation. This allows protein molecules to bind to the nanoparticle's surface with the favorable silver thiol bond leading to greater surface affinity and larger SERS enhancement. The proposed Ag-AlNFs represent a cost-effective material that can be potentially used to probe biological systems in a label-free manner by photoactivating the SERS substrate for obtaining higher enhancement factors.

Abstract
Phototherapy has garnered worldwide attention for its minimal invasiveness, controllability, and spatial selectivity in treating cancer. One promising approach involves the use of near-infrared dye IR780, which demonstrates both photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) effects under 808 nm laser irradiation. However, this hydrophobic dye's toxicity and limited tumor targeting ability severely hamper its suitability for cancer applications. Herein, a biocompatible nanoplatform CoOOH-IR780@BSA (CoIRB) is developed to efficiently deliver IR780 and provide multi-mode treatments for colon tumors. Due to the nanocarrier coating, CoIRB nanoparticles demonstrated reliable dispersion and stability, and their biotoxicity was substantially reduced for safer blood circulation, which overcame the biological barrier of IR780. The nanoplatform has also shown considerable results in phototherapy in vivo and in vitro experiments, with successful inhibition of MC38 tumor growth through intravenous administration. Additionally, the introduction of cobalt ions could induce Fenton-like reactions to activate the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH), exerting an assisted chemodynamic therapy (CDT) effect. Notably, these nanodrugs also exhibited potential as scavengers of reductive glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), leading to amplifying oxidative damage of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Overall, the versatile therapeutic platform, CoIRB, has opened up considerable prospects as a biotherapeutic option for combining PDT/PTT/CDT against colon cancer.

Abstract
The novel Mannich base benzimidazole derivative (CB-1), 1-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)(3-chlorophenyl)methyl)-3-phenylurea) has been designed and synthesized by reacting benzimidazole, 3-chloro benzaldehyde, and N-Phenyl urea. CB-1 has been characterized by UV- Visible, FTIR, and 1H NMR. CB-1 was explored to study the interaction with the most abundant blood protein which involved in the role of transport of molecules (drugs), human serum albumin (HSA). Fluorescence results are evident for the presence of both dynamic and static quenching mechanisms in the binding of CB-1 to HSA. Antimicrobial screening were carried out against three bacteria and three fungi pathogens employing disc diffusion method. Molecular docking using AutoDock Vina tool further confirms the experimental binding interactions obtained from fluorescence. Density functional theory (DFT) with B3LYP/6-311G++ basis set was used for correlating theoretical data and obtaining optimized structures of CB-1 along with reactants with molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map and HOMO→LUMO energy gap calculation. HIGHLIGHTSThe novel Mannich base benzimidazole derivative (CB-1) has been designed and synthesized by Mannich reaction.CB-1 has been characterized by UV- Visible, FTIR, and 1H NMR.Fluorescence quenching reveals that HSA binds to CB-1 via aromatic residues, which is corroborated by molecular docking.Antifungal and antibacterial activity was evaluated in comparison to Nystatin and Gentamicin standard drugs, respectively.DFT calculations support experimental data and provide HOMO-LUMO energy gap.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Multiphoton-excited fluorescence recovery while photobleaching (FRWP) is demonstrated as a method for quantitative measurements of rapid molecular diffusion over microsecond to millisecond timescales. Diffusion measurements are crucial in assessing molecular mobility in cell biology, materials science, and pharmacology. Optical and fluorescence microscopy techniques enable non-invasive rapid analysis of molecular diffusion but can be challenging for systems with diffusion coefficients exceeding ∼100 μm2/s. As an example, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) operates on the implicit assumption of a comparatively fast photobleaching step prior to a relatively slow recovery and is not generally applicable for systems exhibiting substantial recovery during photobleaching. These challenges are exacerbated in multiphoton excitation by the lower excitation efficiency and competing effects from local heating. Herein, beam-scanning FRWP with patterned line-bleach illumination is introduced as a technique that addresses FRAP limitations and further extends its application range by measuring faster diffusion events. In FRWP, the recovery of fluorescence is continuously probed after each pass of a fast-scanning mirror, and the upper bound of measurable diffusion rates is, therefore, only limited by the mirror scanning frequency. A theoretical model describing transient fluctuations in fluorescence intensity arising as a result of combined contributions from photobleaching and localized photothermal effect is introduced along with a mathematical framework for quantifying fluorescence intensity temporal curves and recovering room-temperature diffusion coefficients. FRWP is then tested by characterization of normal diffusion of rhodamine-labeled bovine serum albumin, green fluorescence protein, and immunoglobulin G molecules in aqueous solutions of varying viscosity.

Abstract
High-grade gliomas present a significant challenge in neuro-oncology because of their aggressive nature and resistance to current therapies. Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a potential treatment method; however, the boron used by the carrier compounds-such as 4-borono-L-phenylalanine (L-BPA)-have limitations. This study evaluated the use of boron-conjugated 4-iodophenylbutanamide (BC-IP), a novel boron compound in BNCT, for the treatment of glioma. Using in vitro drug exposure experiments and in vivo studies, we compared BC-IP and BPA, with a focus on boron uptake and retention characteristics. The results showed that although BC-IP had a lower boron uptake than BPA, it exhibited superior retention. Furthermore, despite lower boron accumulation in tumors, BNCT mediated by BC-IP showed significant survival improvement in glioma-bearing rats compared to controls (not treated animals and neutrons only). These results suggest that BC-IP, with its unique properties, may be an alternative boron carrier for BNCT. Further research is required to optimize this potential treatment modality, which could significantly contribute to advancing the treatment of high-grade gliomas.

Abstract
To investigate the binding characteristics of pesticide ethiprole (ETP) with serum albumin is of great significance for pathological analysis of pesticide poisoning, gene mutation, and clinical detection. In present work, the binding characteristics of ETP with a model protein BSA has been estimated by means of multi-spectroscopic approaches integrated with computer simulation. The outcomes testified that the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was mainly quenched by ETP in a static quenching mode and the stable ETP-BSA complex with the stoichiometry of 1:1 and the binding constant of 6.81 × 103 M-1 (298 K) was produced. The outcomes revealed that ETP combined preferentially to the subdomain IIA (Site I) of BSA and caused the decline in the content of α-helix of BSA and the enhancement in the hydrophobicity of environment centered on Trp residues. The outcomes of experimental and theoretical studies provide the sufficient evidence about the driving forces for the complexation of ETP with BSA, which included van der Waals forces (vdW), hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interaction, and hydrophobicity. Simultaneously, the theoretical calculation results also confirmed the existence of the significant changes in the physicochemical natures of ETP including molecular conformation, dipole moment, frontier orbital energy, and the atomic charge distribution, which was a responsible for the complexation with BSA.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
