Jalan A, Sangeet S, Pradhan AK, Moyon NS. Exploring the interaction of a potent anti-cancer drug Selumetinib with bovine serum albumin: Spectral and computational attributes. J Mol Recognit 2024; 37:e3084. [PMID: 38596890 DOI: 10.1002/jmr.3084] [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: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024]
Abstract
The binding of drugs to plasma proteins determines its fate within the physiological system, hence profound understanding of its interaction within the bloodstream is important to understand its pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics and thereby its therapeutic potential. In this regard, our work delineates the mechanism of interaction of Selumetinib (SEL), a potent anti-cancer drug showing excellent effect against multiple solid tumors, with plasma protein bovine serum albumin (BSA), using methods such as absorption, steady-state fluorescence, time-resolved, fluorescence resonance energy transfer, Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), circular dichroism (CD), synchronous and 3D-fluorescence, salt fluorescence, molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulations. The BSA fluorescence intensity was quenched with increasing concentration of SEL which indicates interactions of SEL with BSA. Stern-Volmer quenching analysis and lifetime studies indicate the involvement of dynamic quenching. However, some contributions from the static quenching mechanism could not be ruled out unambiguously. The association constant was found to be 5.34 × 105 M-1 and it has a single binding site. The Förster distance (r) indicated probable energy transmission between the BSA and SEL. The positive entropy changes and enthalpy change indicate that the main interacting forces are hydrophobic forces, also evidenced by the results of molecular modeling studies. Conformation change in protein framework was revealed from FTIR, synchronous and 3D fluorescence and CD studies. Competitive binding experiments as well as docking studies suggest that SEL attaches itself to site I (subdomain IIA) of BSA where warfarin binds. Molecular dynamic simulations indicate the stability of the SEL-BSA complex. The association energy between BSA and SEL is affected in the presence of different metals differently.

Abstract
Carotenoids are very effectively delivered by albumin to adipocytes. The uptake of carotenoids to the cells occurs in the form of self-aggregates that localize in the vicinity of the adipocyte membrane, as shown by high spatial resolution Raman spectroscopy. The binding of carotenoids to albumin and the mechanism of their transport were elucidated with the help of chiroptical spectroscopies, in tandem with molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. In particular, apart from the recognized high affinity pocket of albumin that binds a carotenoid monomer in domain I, we have identified a hydrophobic periphery area in domain IIIB that loosely bounds the self-aggregated carotenoid in aqueous media and enables its easy detachment in hydrophobic environments. This explains the effectiveness of albumins as nanocarriers of carotenoids to adipocytes in vitro.

Abstract
Microplastics have a well-documented ability to adsorb various chemicals and contaminants found in the environment. By similar mechanisms, when medicines are stored in plastic packaging, the leaching of plastics into the contents poses the risk of possible toxicity and decreased drug efficacy. The work thus examines the presence of two categories of anthropogenic materials - microplastics (MPs) and medications - with their possible combined effects and fate in biological systems. A study on the kinetics and isotherm of the adsorption of vancomycin hydrochloride on the surface of polystyrene microspheres is performed, and the best-fitting models are obtained respectively as the pseudo-second-order model and the Temkin isotherm. Further, the interaction of each of, the drug, MPs and drug-adsorbed MPs with human serum albumin (HSA), the model protein chosen to validate the potential toxicity in humans, is determined by fluorescence spectroscopy. A thermodynamic analysis of this protein-ligand interaction shows that the process is spontaneous, endothermic and entropically favoured, and that hydrophobic forces operate between the interacting species. An unfolding of HSA is observed, disrupting its functions like the esterase activity. Competitive binding experiments with Warfarin and Ibuprofen as specific site markers on HSA reveal that all the studied ligands bind non-specifically to HSA.

Direct evaluation of polarity of the ligand binding pocket in retinoid X receptor using a fluorescent solvatochromic agonist. Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2023; 96:129536.

Abstract
High selectivity of small-molecule drug candidates for their target molecule is important to minimize potential side effects. One factor that contributes to the selectivity is the internal polarity of the ligand-binding pocket (LBP) in the target molecule, but this is difficult to measure. Here, we first confirmed that the retinoid X receptor (RXR) agonist 6-(ethyl(1-isobutyl-2-oxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2-dihydroquinolin-7-yl)amino)nicotinic acid (NEt-iFQ, 1) exhibits fluorescence solvatochromism, i.e., its Stokes shift depends on the polarity of the solvent, and then we utilized this property to directly measure the internal polarity of the RXRα-LBP. The Stokes shift of 1 when bound to the RXRα-LBP corresponded to that of 1 in chloroform solution. This finding is expected to be helpful for designing RXR-selective ligands. A similar approach should be appliable to evaluate the internal polarity of the LBPs of other receptors.

Abstract
A novel class of bioactive complexes (1-3) [MII(L)2(bpy)], where, L = 2-(4-morpholinobenzylideneamino)phenol, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, MII = Mn (1), Co (2) or Ni (3), were assigned to octahedral geometry based on analytical and spectral measurements. Gel electrophoresis showed that complex (2) demonstrated significant DNA cleavage activity compared to the other complexes under the action of oxidation agent (H2O2). The DNA binding constant properties measured by various techniques were in the following sequence: (2) > (3) > (1) > (HL), which suggests that the complexes might intercalate DNA, a possibility that is also supported by their biothermodynamic characteristics. The binding constant results for BSA from electronic absorption and fluorometric titrations demonstrate that complex (2) exhibits the highest binding effectiveness among them all, which means that all the compounds could interact with BSA through a static approach, additionally supported by FRET measurements. DFT and docking calculations were employed to realize the electronic structure, reactivity, and interaction capability of all substances with DNA, BSA, and the SARS-CoV-2 main protease. These binding energies fell within the ranges -7.7 to -8.5, -8.2 to -10.1 and -6.7 to -9.3 kcal mol-1, respectively. The higher reactivity of the complexes than the ligand is supported by FMO theory. The in vitro antibacterial, cytotoxicity, and radical scavenging characteristics revealed that complexes (2-3) have better biological efficacy than the others. The cytotoxicity and binding properties also show good correlation with the partition coefficient (log P), which is encouraging because all of the experimental findings are closely correlated with the theoretical measurements.

Abstract
The interaction of Rebeccamycin with calf thymus (ctDNA) in the absence and presence of H1 was investigated by molecular dynamics, multi-spectroscopic, and cellular techniques. According to fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopies, Rebeccamycin interacted with ctDNA in the absence of H1 through intercalator or binding modes, while the presence of H1 resulted in revealing theintercalator, as the dominant role, and groove binding modes of ctDNA-Rebeccamycin complex. The binding constants, which were calculated to be 1.22 × 104 M-1 and 7.92 × 105 M-1 in the absence and presence of H1, respectively, denoted the strong binding of Rebeccamycin with ctDNA. The binding constants of Rebeccamycin with ct DNA in the absence and presence of H1 were calculated at 298, 303 and 308 K. Considering the thermodynamic parameters (ΔH0 and ΔS0), both vander waals forces and hydrogen bonds played predominant roles throughout the binding of Rebeccamycin to ctDNA in the absence and presence of H1. The outcomes of circular dichroism suggested the lack of any major conformational changes in ctDNA upon interacting with Rebeccamycin, except some perturbations in native B-DNA at local level. Additionally, the effect of NaCl and KI on ctDNA-Rebeccamycin complex provided further evidence for the reliance of their interaction modes on substituted groups. The observed increase in the relative viscosity of ctDNA caused by the enhancement of Rebeccamycin confirmed their intercalation and groove binding modes in the absence and presence of H1. Moreover, the assessments of molecular docking simulation corroborated these experimental results and also elucidated the effectiveness of Rebeccamycinin inhibiting and proliferating T24 and 5637 cells. Meanwhile, the ability of Rebeccamycin in inhibiting cell proliferation and tumor growth through the induction of apoptosis by down regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were provided.

Abstract
Baricitinib is a Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitor that is primarily used to treat moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis in adults and has recently been reported for the treatment of patients with severe COVID-19. This paper describes the investigation of the binding behavior of baricitinib to human α1-acid glycoprotein (HAG) employing a variety of spectroscopic techniques, molecular docking and dynamics simulations. Baricitinib can quench the fluorescence from amino acids in HAG through a mix of dynamic and static quenching, according to steady-state fluorescence and UV spectra observations, but it is mainly static quenching at low concentration. The binding constant (Kb) of baricitinib to HAG at 298 K was at the level of 104 M-1, indicating a moderate affinity of baricitinib to HAG. Hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions conducted the main effect, according to thermodynamic characteristics, competition studies between ANS and sucrose, and molecular dynamics simulations. For the change in HAG conformation, the results of multiple spectra showed that baricitinib was able to alter the secondary structure of HAG as well as increase the polarity of the microenvironment around the Trp amino acid. Furthermore, the binding behavior of baricitinib to HAG was investigated by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations, which validated experimental results. Also explored is the influence of K+, Co2+, Ni2+, Ca2+, Fe3+, Zn2+, Mg2+ and Cu2+plasma on binding affinity.

Abstract
Proteins are vital constituents of all living organisms. As many therapeutic agents alter the activity of functional proteins, identifying functional target proteins of small bioactive molecules isessential for the rational design of stronger medicines. Flavonoids with antioxidant, anti-allergy, and anti-inflammatory effects are expected to have preventive effects for several diseases closely related to oxidation and inflammation, including heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and eye diseases. Therefore, identifying the proteins involved in the pharmacological actions of flavonoids, and designing a flavonoid structure-based medicine that strongly and specifically inhibits flavonoid target proteins, could aid the development of more effective medicines for treating heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and ocular diseases with few side effects. To isolate the flavonoid target protein, we conducted a novel affinity chromatography in a column wherein baicalin, a representative flavonoid, was attached to Affi-Gel 102. Through affinity chromatography and nano LC-MS/MS, we identified GAPDH as a flavonoid target protein. Then, we performed fluorescence quenching and an enzyme inhibition assay to experimentally confirmbaicalin's binding affinity for, and inhibition of, GAPDH. We also conducted in silico docking simulations to visualize the binding modes of baicalin and the newly identified flavonoid target protein, GAPDH. From the results of this study, it was considered that one of the reasons why baicalin exhibits the effects on cancer and neurodegenerative diseases is that it inhibits the activity of GAPDH. In summary, we showed that Affi-Gel102 could quickly and accurately isolate the target protein for bioactive small molecules, without the need for isotopic labeling or a fluorescent probe. By using the method presented here, it was possible to easily isolate the target protein of a medicine containing a carboxylic acid.

Abstract
Novel constructed bioactive mixed-ligand complexes (1b) [CuII(L)2(phen)] and (2b) [ZnII(L)2(phen)] {where, L = 2-(4-morpholinobenzylideneamino)phenol), phen = 1,10-phenanthroline} have been structurally analysed by various analytical and spectroscopic techniques, including, magnetic moments, thermogravimetric analysis, and X-ray crystallography. Various analytical and spectral measurements assigned showed that all complexes appear to have an octahedral geometry. Agar gel electrophoresis's output demonstrated that the Cu(II) complex (1b) had efficient deoxyribonucleic cleavage and complex (2b) demonstrated the partial cleavage accomplished with an oxidation agent, which generates spreadable OH● through the Fenton type mechanism. The DNA binding constants observed from viscosity, UV-Vis spectral, fluorometric, and electrochemical titrations were in the following sequence: (1b) > (2b) > (HL), which suggests that the complexes (1b-2b) might intercalate DNA, a possibility that is supported by the biothermodynamic measurements. In addition, the observed binding constant results of BSA by electronic absorption and fluorometric titrations indicate that complex (1b) revealed the best binding efficacy as compared to complex (2b) and free ligand. Interestingly, all compounds are found to interact with BSA through a static approach, as further attested by FRET detection. The DFT and molecular docking calculations were also performed to realize the electronic structure, reactivity, and binding capability of all test samples with CT-DNA, BSA, and the SARS-CoV-2 3CLPro, which revealed the binding energies were in a range of -8.1 to -8.9, -7.5 to -10.5 and -6.7--8.8 kcal/mol, respectively. The higher reactivity of the complexes than the free ligand is supported by the FMO theory. Among all the observed data for antioxidant properties against DPPH᛫, ᛫OH, O2-• and NO᛫ free radicals, complex (1a) had the best biological efficacy. The antimicrobial and cytotoxic characteristics of all test compounds have been studied by screening against certain selected microorganisms as well as against A549, HepG2, MCF-7, and NHDF cell lines, respectively. The observed findings revealed that the activity enhances coordination as compared to free ligand via Overtone's and Tweedy's chelation mechanisms. This is especially encouraging given that in every case, the experimental findings and theoretical detections were in perfect accord.

Abstract
A new class of pharmacologically active mixed-ligand complexes (1a-2a) [MII(L)2 (bpy)], where L = 2-(4-morpholinobenzylideneamino)phenol), bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, MII = Cu (1a), and Zn (2a), were assigned an octahedral geometry by analytical and spectral measurements. Gel electrophoresis showed that complex (1a) demonstrated the complete DNA cleavage mediated by H2O2. The overall DNA-binding constants observed from UV-vis, fluorometric, hydrodynamic, and electrochemical titrations were in the following sequence: (1a) > (2a) > (HL), which suggests that the complexes might intercalate DNA, a possibility that is further supported by the biothermodynamic characteristics. The binding constant results of BSA by electronic absorption and fluorometric titration demonstrate that complex (1a) exhibits the highest binding effectiveness among others, which means that all compounds could interact with BSA through a static approach, additionally supported by FRET measurements. Density FunctionalTheory (DFT) and molecular docking calculations were relied on to unveil the electronic structure, reactivity, and interacting capability of all substances with DNA, BSA, and SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro). These observed binding energies fell within the following ranges: -7.7 to -8.6, -7.2 to -10.2, and -6.7 to -8.2 kcal/mol, respectively. The higher reactivity of the complexes compared to free ligand is supported by the Frontier MolecularOrbital (FMO) theory. The in vitro antibacterial, cytotoxic, and radical scavenging characteristics revealed that complex (1a) has the best biological efficacy compared to others. This is encouraged because all experimental findings are closely correlated with the theoretical measurements.

Abstract
A novel series of metal(II) complexes (1-5) [MII(L)2]{Where M = Cu (1), Co (2), Mn (3), Ni (4) and Zn (5)} constructed from 2-(4-morpholinobenzylideneamino)phenol Schiff base ligand (HL) in a 1:2 M ratio and the spectral and analytical results put forward square planar geometry. Spectro-electrochemical, hydrodynamic, gel electrophoresis, and DNA binding/cleavage results for all the compounds demonstrate that complex (1) had excellent DNA binding/cleavage properties compared to other compounds. The observation also suggests that test compounds could intercalate with DNA, and the biothermodynamic property more strongly supports the stabilizing of the double helix DNA with the complexes. BSA binding constant results show that complex (1) exposes the best binding property via a static mode, which is further confirmed by FRET calculations. The DFT calculations and docking results for all compounds towards DNA, BSA and SARS-CoV-19 main protease (3CLPro), reveal the binding energies were in the range of -7.8 to -9.4, -6.6 to -10.2 and - 6.1 - -8.2 kcal/mol for all test compounds respectively. In this case, complexes showed favorable binding energies compared to free ligand, which stimulates further studies aimed at validating the predicted activity as well as contributing to tackling the current and future viral pandemics. The in-vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer results for all compounds revealed that copper complex (1) has better activity compared to others. This might result in an effective anticancer drug for future research, which is especially promising since the observed experimental results for all cases were in close agreement with the theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Herein we illustrate the formation and characterization of new paramagnetic ruthenium compounds, trans-P-[RuCl(PPh3 )2 (pmt)]Cl (1) (Hpmt=1-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)thiosemicarbazide), trans-P-[RuCl(PPh3 )2 (tmc)]Cl (2) (Htmc=1-((thiophen-2-yl)methylene)thiosemicarbazide) and a diamagnetic ruthenium complex, cis-Cl, trans-P-[RuCl2 (PPh3 )2 (btm)] (3) (btm=2-((5-hydroxypentylimino)methyl)benzothiazole). Agarose gel electrophoresis experiments of the metal compounds illustrated dose-dependent binding to gDNA by 1-3, while methylene blue competition assays suggested that 1 and 2 are also DNA intercalators. Assessment of the effects of the compounds on topoisomerase function indicated that 1-3 are capable of inhibiting topoisomerase I activity in terms of the ability to nick supercoiled plasmid DNA. The cytotoxic activities of the metal complexes were determined against a range of cancer cell lines versus a non-tumorigenic control cell line, and the complexes were, in general, more cytotoxic towards the cancer cells, displaying IC50 values in the low micromolar range. Time-dependent stability studies showed that in the presence of strong nucleophilic species (such as DMSO), the chloride co-ligands of 1-3 are rapidly substituted by the former as proven by the suppression of the substitution reactions in the presence of an excess amount of chloride ions. The metal complexes are significantly stable in both DCM and an aqueous phosphate buffer containing 2 % DMSO.

Abstract
As a new member of the nanomaterials family, ultrasmall graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have shown broad application prospects in the field of biomedicine, but the analysis of their biological effects at the molecular level is yet limited. Herein, carbonic anhydrase (CA) was selected as a model protein to assess the interactions between GQDs and biomacromolecules. A range of spectroscopic techniques were employed to systematically investigate the binding interactions between GQDs and CA and the catalytic function of CA in the presence of GQDs was evaluated. Experimental results showed that GQDs could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of CA and the concentration dependent quenching efficiency exhibited an obvious deviation from the linear plot, indicating a static binding mode. Further investigation suggested that van der Waal interactions and hydrogen bonding were the main driving forces. Additionally, circular dichroism measurement showed that the binding of GQDs induced slight conformational changes of CA. The catalytic capability assessment proved that these binding interactions resulted in the reduction of the biological functions of CA. This comprehensive study provided important insight into the interaction of GQDs with biomacromolecules, which would be crucial for the further applications of GQDs and other nanomaterials in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Background: The pharmacological response and the therapeutic efficacy of a drug depends on the interactions with plasma proteins. Methodology: The interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with the metal complexes of antihypertensive drugs, Zn(II)/sartan complexes (candesartan, valsartan and losartan), was investigated using fluorescence quenching determinations at different temperatures. Results: The binding studies of the compounds with BSA showed static quenching and moderate binding with calculated constants in the range of 104-106 M-1, indicating potent serum distribution via albumins. In all cases, negative values of free energy are indicative of spontaneous processes and the stabilization of BSA/compound complexes through hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces. The results for the sartans agree with the reported pharmacokinetics studies. Conclusion: It has been determined that the three sartans and the Zn complexes could be transported and distributed by albumin.

Abstract
AbstractDiabetes is among the top ten deadly diseases in the world. It occurs either when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (INS) or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. Phloretin (PHL) has a biological effect that can treat diabetes. A spectroscopic study was carried out to explore the interaction between phloretin and insulin. UV/Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and circular dichroism spectropolarimeter were used in the study. UV/Vis spectra showed that the interaction between PHL and INS produced strong absorption at a wavelength of 282 nm. The fluorescence analysis results showed that the excitation and emission occurred at 280-nm and 305-nm wavelengths, respectively. Temperature changes did not affect INS emissions. However, the interaction of PHL–INS caused a redshift at 305 to 317 nm. Temperature affected the binding constant (Ka) and the binding site (n). Ka decreased with increasing temperature and increased the binding site. The thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpy (ΔH0) and entropy (ΔS0) each had a value of − 16,514 kJ/mol and 22.65 J/mol·K. PHL and INS interaction formed hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interaction. The free energy (ΔG0) recorded was negative. PHL and INS interactions took place spontaneously. The quenching effect was dynamic and static. KD values were greater than KS. The higher the temperature, the less was KD and KS. The appearance of two negative signals on circular dichroism (CD) spectropolarimeter implies that phloretin could induce regional configuration changes in insulin. The addition of PHL has revealed that the proportion of α-helix in the insulin stabilizes its structure. Phloretin’s stabilization and enhancement of the α-helix structural configuration in insulin indicate that phloretin can improve insulin resistance.

Abstract
Fibrillogenesis of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is pathologically associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), so modulating Aβ aggregation is crucial for AD prevention and treatment. Herein, a zwitterionic polymer with short dimethyl side chains (pID) is synthesized and conjugated with a heptapeptide inhibitor (Ac-LVFFARK-NH2, LK7) to construct zwitterionic polymer-inhibitor conjugates for enhanced inhibition of Aβ aggregation. However, it is unexpectedly found that the LK7@pID conjugates remarkably promote Aβ fibrillization to form more fibrils than the free Aβ system but effectively eliminate Aβ-induced cytotoxicity. Such an unusual behavior of the LK7@pID conjugates is unraveled by extensive mechanistic studies. First, the hydrophobic environment within the assembled micelles of LK7@pID promotes the hydrophobic interaction between Aβ molecules and LK7@pID, which triggers Aβ aggregation at the very beginning, making fibrillization occur at an earlier stage. Second, in the aggregation process, the LK7@pID micelles disassemble by the intensive interactions with Aβ, and LK7@pID participates in the fibrillization by being embedded in the Aβ fibrils, leading to the formation of hybrid and heterogeneous fibrillar aggregates with a different structure than normal Aβ fibrils. This unique Trojan horse-like feature of LK7@pID conjugates has not been observed for any other inhibitors reported previously and may shed light on the design of new modulators against β-amyloid cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Monoisoamyl 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (MiADMSA), a lipophilic chelator has been evaluated for its potential use as an antidote in arsenic poisoning. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics properties of a drug could be understood via study its mechanism of interaction with bovine serum albumin protein (BSA). Therefore, the interaction between MiADMSA with BSA was investigated using various spectroscopic techniques and computational methods. Linear quenching of BSA intrinsic fluorescence intensity with the increasing concentration of MiADMSA was observed in the fluorescence study. Furthermore, synchronous results revealed that MiADMSA slightly changed the conformation of BSA. The binding constant value of the BSA-MiADMSA complex was found 1.60 × 104 M-1 at 298 K. The value of thermodynamic parameters ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS described that the process is spontaneous, endothermic, and hydrophobic forces are involved in the interaction of MiADMSA with BSA. Competitive site marker experiments showed that MiADMSA binds to site-II of BSA. Conformational changes of BSA with the interaction of MiADMSA were apparent by CD, UV-Visible, FT-IR, and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy. To strengthen the experimental findings we have also performed a theoretical study on the BSA-MiADMSA complex. Two sites were identified with docking score of - 6.642 kcal/mol at site IIa and - 3.80 kcal/mol for site IIb via molecular docking study. Molecular dynamics simulation study inferred the stability of the BSA-MiADMSA complex which was analyzed in a long simulation run. The experimental and computational studies have shown the effective binding of MiADMSA with BSA which is essential for the transportation and elimination of a drug from the body.

Abstract
The toxicity of antimony (Sb) is closely related to its chemical forms. To further realize the toxicity risk of different forms of Sb, the separate and simultaneous binding mechanisms of antimony potassium tartrate/potassium pyroantimonate with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated with muti-spectroscopic methods. Fluorescence quenching result and UV-vis absorption spectra showed that a 1:1 complex was formed between antimony potassium tartrate/potassium pyroantimonate and BSA through a modest binding force. The results revealed that the binding of antimony potassium tartrate/potassium pyroantimonate to BSA caused changes in the secondary structure of BSA. Both Sb forms (antimony potassium tartrate and potassium pyroantimonate) were able to interact with BSA when coexisting but there was a binding influence on their interacting with the BSA. Both Sb forms interfere with the binding of the other to protein.

Abstract
The interactions of small molecule drugs with plasma serum albumin are important because of the influence of such interactions on the pharmacokinetics of these therapeutic agents. 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR) is one such drug candidate that has recently gained attention for its promising clinical applications as an anti-cancer agent. This study sheds light upon key aspects of AICAR’s pharmacokinetics, which are not well understood. We performed in-depth experimental and computational binding analyses of AICAR with human serum albumin (HSA) under simulated biochemical conditions, using ligand-dependent fluorescence sensitivity of HSA. This allowed us to characterize the strength and modes of binding, mechanism of fluorescence quenching, validation of FRET, and intermolecular interactions for the AICAR–HSA complexes. We determined that AICAR and HSA form two stable low-energy complexes, leading to conformational changes and quenching of protein fluorescence. Stern–Volmer analysis of the fluorescence data also revealed a collision-independent static mechanism for fluorescence quenching upon formation of the AICAR–HSA complex. Ligand-competitive displacement experiments, using known site-specific ligands for HSA’s binding sites (I, II, and III) suggest that AICAR is capable of binding to both HSA site I (warfarin binding site, subdomain IIA) and site II (flufenamic acid binding site, subdomain IIIA). Computational molecular docking experiments corroborated these site-competitive experiments, revealing key hydrogen bonding interactions involved in stabilization of both AICAR–HSA complexes, reaffirming that AICAR binds to both site I and site II.

Abstract
![]()
The cationic enantiopure
(R,R) and luminescent Eu(III) complex [Eu(bisoQcd)(H2O)2] OTf (with bisoQcd = N,N′-bis(2-isoquinolinmethyl)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane N,N′-diacetate and OTf = triflate) was synthesized
and characterized. At physiological pH, the 1:1 [Eu(bisoQcd)(H2O)2]+ species, possessing
two water molecules in the inner coordination sphere, is largely dominant.
The interaction with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by means
of several experimental techniques, such as luminescence spectroscopy,
isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), molecular docking (MD), and
molecular dynamics simulations (MDS). In this direction, a ligand
competition study was also performed by using three clinically established
drugs (i.e., ibuprofen, warfarin, and digitoxin). The nature of this
interaction is strongly affected by the type of the involved heteroaromatic
antenna in the Eu(III) complexes. In fact, the presence of isoquinoline rings drives the corresponding complex toward
the protein superficial area containing the tryptophan residue 134
(Trp134). As the main consequence, the metal center undergoes the
loss of one water molecule upon interaction with the side chain of
a glutamic acid residue. On the other hand, the similar complex containing
pyridine rings ([Eu(bpcd)(H2O)2]Cl with bpcd
= N,N′-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane N,N′-diacetate) interacts more weakly with the protein
in a different superficial cavity, without losing the coordinated
water molecules. The effect
of the antenna moiety on the interaction of two new luminescent Eu(III)
complexes with BSA was studied. Results show that the complexes can
be conveniently exploited as optical probes for albumin serum proteins

Abstract
To check the role of micelle in the interaction studies of human serum albumin (HSA) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), many spectroscopic techniques, like UV-visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism, fluorescence lifetime measurement, and atomic force microscopy (AFM), are employed. The binding affinity of all compound groups depended on the hydrocarbon chain, indicating the predominant role of hydrophobic forces, electrostatic forces and supported by polar interactions on protein surfaces. The protein has a different effect on the polarity of a microenvironment in fluorescence spectra above and below the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the suractant. The far-UV-CD spectra show unfolding below the CMC and refolding above the CMC. The binding of the surfactant induces changes in the microenvironment at different pHs around the residues of the aromatic amino acid and the disulfide bond of protein. The AFM images show significant changes in the protein's structure. AFM images show dense aggregation below the CMC and above the CMC, some net-like structure formed in the HSA-CTAB complex. To test the experimental results, we used Auto dock Vina to conduct molecular docking. Above and below the CMC, structural changes can be seen.

Abstract
To evaluate the role of micelles for protein-surfactant interaction, we have studied the binding modes of serum albumin proteins (human (HSA) and rabbit (RSA)) with anionic-surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) by using UV-visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism, fluorescence lifetime, atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. The study performed with three different pHs (below (4.0), at (4.7), and above (7.0) isoelectric point). Hydrocarbon chain of the surfactant, dominant role of hydrophobic forces and electrostatic interactions helped in polar interaction on protein on binding surfaces. The change above and below the critical micelle concentration (CMC) in fluorescence spectra was due to polarity of the microenvironment. The CD spectra different binding aspects as below CMC and above CMC, explain about folding and unfolding in secondary structure. Surfactant's binding induces fluctuations in the microenvironment of aromatic amino acid's residues of both proteins at different pHs. AFM images clarify the structural changes in both proteins (HSA & RSA). AFM images also indicate some different interesting conformational and structural changes in both proteins below/above the CMC of the surfactant. The molecular docking studies indicate the binding energy -4.8 kcal mol-1 and -4.7 kcal mol-1 for HSA-SDS and RSA-SDS, respectively. Structural changes can be seen above and below the CMC.

Abstract
Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride (CBH) is a well-known muscle relaxant that is widely used to relieve muscle spasms and other pain associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions. In this study, we elucidated the binding characteristics of this muscle relaxant to human serum albumin (HSA). From a pharmaceutical and biochemical viewpoint, insight into the structure, functions, dynamics, and features of HSA-CBH complex holds great importance. The binding of CBH with this major circulatory transport protein was studied using a combination of biophysical approaches such as UV-VIS absorption, fluorescence quenching, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Various in silico techniques, molecular docking and molecular dynamics, were also used to gain deeper insight into the binding. A reduction in the fluorescence intensities of HSA-CBH complex with a constant increase in temperature, revealed the static mode of protein fluorescence quenching upon CBH addition, which confirmed the formation of the HSA-CBH ground state complex. The alteration in the UV-VIS and far-UV CD spectrum indicated changes in both secondary and tertiary structures of HSA upon binding of CBH, further proving CBH binding to HSA. The analysis of thermodynamic parameters ∆H° and ∆S° showed that binding of CBH to HSA was dominated by intermolecular hydrophobic forces. The results of the molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies also confirmed the stability of the complex and supported the experimental results.

Abstract
Quercetin has been reported to suppress protein glycation or the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), but the inhibition mechanism related to protein structure and glycation sites and the influence on physicochemical properties remain unclear. The aim of the current research was to investigate the mechanism of quercetin against glycation with BSA-fructose as model by spectroscopic and spectrometric techniques. Changes in physicochemical properties were evaluated by antioxidant activity and emulsifying properties. The results indicated that quercetin dose-dependently inhibited the glycation of BSA by attenuating the alteration of conformational structure and microenvironment induced by glycation. It could also suppress the cross-linking or aggregation of glycated BSA, which reflected in the decreased molecular weight determined by SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF. Nanoliquid chromatography coupled to Q-Exactive tandem mass spectrometry analysis revealed the mapping of 20, 23, 19, and 19 glycation sites in glycated BSA with 0, 0.5, 1.5, and 3.0 mM quercetin, respectively. Quercetin changed the glycation sites of BSA, but it could not reduce the number greatly. In addition, quercetin reduced the antioxidant ability and increased the emulsifying properties of BSA, while negligible efficiency was observed on the antioxidant activity and emulsifying activity index of glycated BSA.

Abstract
Natural L-carvone was utilized as a starting material for an efficient synthesis of some terpenyl-derived 1,2,3-triazoles. Chlorination of carvone, followed by nucleophilic substitution with sodium azide resulted in the preparation of 10-azidocarvone. Subsequent CuAAC click reaction with propargylated derivatives provided an efficient synthetic route to a set of terpenyl-derived conjugates with increased solubility in water. All investigated compounds exhibit high antioxidant activity, which is comparable with that of vitamin C. It was also found that serum albumin and the terpenyl-1,2,3-triazoles hybrids spontaneously undergo reversible binding driven by hydrophobic interactions, suggesting that serum albumin can transport the target triazoles.

Abstract
The interactions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with vanillin (VAN) were studied using UV-vis absorption, fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence, three dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy (3D), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), circular dichroism (CD), and molecular docking techniques. The results revealed that VAN causes the static quenching of BSA by forming BSA-VAN complex. The thermodynamic parameters obtained using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) showed that the interaction between BSA and VAN is spontaneous and hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces are mainly involved in stabilizing the complex. The distance between the donor and the acceptor was analyzed using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) which showed Forster distance of 2.58 nm. Molecular docking technique was applied to study the modes of interaction between BSA-VAN system and it was found that VAN bound to the sub-domain IIA of BSA. Structural analysis using 3D, synchronous fluorescence FTIR, and CD showed that upon binding of VAN, BSA exhibits small micro-environmental changes around tryptophan amino acid residue.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic disorder caused by a CAG expansion mutation in Huntingtin gene leading to polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion in the N-terminus side of Huntingtin (Httex1) protein. Neurodegeneration in HD is linked to aggregates formed by Httex1 bearing an expanded polyQ. Initiation and elongation steps of Httex1 aggregation are potential target steps for the discovery of therapeutic molecules for HD, which is currently untreatable. Here we report Httex1 aggregation inhibition by calmidazolium chloride (CLC) by acting on the initial aggregation event. Because it is hydrophobic, CLC was adsorbed to the vial surface and could not sustain an inhibition effect for a longer duration. The use of bovine serum albumin (BSA) prevented CLC adsorption by forming a BSA-CLC complex. This complex showed improved Httex1 aggregation inhibition by interacting with the aggregation initiator, the NT17 part of Httex1. Furthermore, biocompatible CLC-loaded BSA nanoparticles were made which reduced the polyQ aggregates in HD-150Q cells.

Abstract
Binding of therapeutic agents to plasma proteins, particularly to serum albumin, provides valuable information in the drug development. This study was designed to evaluate the binding interaction of neratinib with bovine serum albumin (BSA). Neratinib blocks HER2 signaling and is effective in trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer treatment. Spectrofluorometric, UV spectrophotometric, and fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and molecular docking experiments were performed to study this interaction. The fluorescence of BSA is attributed to the presence of tryptophan (Trp) residues. The fluorescence of BSA in presence of neratinib was studied using the excitation wavelength of 280 nm and the emission was measured at 300-500 nm at three different temperatures. Neratinib quenched the BSA intrinsic fluorescence by static mechanism. A complex formation occurred due to the interaction leading to BSA absorption shift. The fluorescence, UV- absorption, three dimensional fluorescence and FT-IR data showed conformational changes occurred in BSA after interaction with neratinib. The binding constant values decreased as the temperature increased suggesting an instable complex formation at high temperature. Site I (sub-domain IIA) was observed as the principal binding site for neratinib. Hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals forces were suggested to be involved in the BSA-neratinib interaction due to the negative values of entropy and enthalpy changes.

Abstract
Bioceramic nanoparticles exhibit excellent features that enable them to function as an ideal material for hard tissue engineering. However, to fully understand their behavior, it is of crucial importance to understand their behavior within the fluids of the human body. To achieve this goal, we have studied the interaction between hydroxyapatite nanorods (HA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). First, we describe the surface morphology of the nanoparticle. Then, the main characteristics of the physiological interplay of BSA and the hydroxyapatite nanoparticle are presented by using a battery of techniques: ITC, zeta potential, UV-vis, fluorescence, and CD. Experimental data was analyzed by developing specific approaches to determining important parameters such as rates, affinities, and stochiometries of protein associated with the nanoparticles. ITC has been confirmed as a powerful technique for determining the affinity, binding, and thermodynamics of BSA-nanoparticle interactions. Careful quantitative assessment of the kinetic properties of the adsorption were revealed by UV-vis and fluorescence measurements. Finally, CD measurements highlight the important role of protein flexibility in these kinds of systems.

Abstract
Background Rivaroxaban is a direct inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa and is used for venous thromboembolic disorders. The rivaroxaban interaction with BSA was studied to understand its PK and PD (pharmacokinetics and pharmacokinetics) properties. Multi-spectroscopic studies were used to study the interaction which included UV spectrophotometric, spectrofluorometric and three dimensional spectrofluorometric studies. Further elucidation of data was done by molecular simulation studies to evaluate the interaction behavior between BSA and rivaroxaban. Results Rivaroxaban quenched the basic fluorescence of BSA molecule by the process of static quenching since rivaroxaban and BSA form a complex that results in shift of the absorption spectra of BSA molecule. A decline in the values of binding constants was detected with the increase of temperatures (298–308 K) and the binding constants were in range from 1.32 × 105 to 4.3 × 103 L mol−1 indicating the instability of the BSA and rivaroxaban complex at higher temperatures. The data of number of binding sites showed uniformity. The site marker experiments indicated site I (sub-domain IIA) as the principal site for rivaroxaban binding. The thermodynamic study experiments were carried at the temperatures of 298/303/308 K. The ∆G0, ∆H0 and ∆S0 at these temperatures ranged between − 24.67 and − 21.27 kJ mol−1 and the values for ∆H0 and ∆S0 were found to be − 126 kJ mol−1 and ∆S − 340 J mol−1 K−1 The negative value of ∆G0 indicating spontaneous binding between the two molecules. The negative values in ∆H0 and ∆S0 indicated van der Waals interaction and hydrogen bonding were involved during the interaction between rivaroxaban and BSA. Conclusions The results of molecular docking were consistent with the results obtained from spectroscopic studies in establishing the principal binding site and type of bonds between rivaroxaban and BSA.

Abstract
The lipophilic derivative of thalidomide (4-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)-N′-[(4-ethoxyphenyl)methylidene]benzohydrazide, 6P) was synthesized to enhance its characteristics and efficacy. Earlier studies have proved the immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects of 6P. In this study the interaction between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 6P was studied using a multi-spectroscopic approach which included UV spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry and three dimensional spectrofluorometric and molecular docking studies. Static quenching was involved in quenching the fluorescence of BSA by 6P, because a complex formation occurred between the 6P and BSA. The binding constant decreased with higher temperature and was in the range of 2.5 × 105–4.8 × 103 L mol−1 suggesting an unstable complex at higher temperatures. A single binding site was observed and the the site probe experiments showed site II (sub-domain IIIA) of BSA as the binding site for 6P. The negative values of ∆G0, ∆H0 and ∆S0 at (298/303/308 K) indicated spontaneous binding between 6P and BSA as well as the interaction was enthalpy driven and van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding were involved in the interaction. The docking results and the results from the experimental studies are complimentary to each other and confirm that 6P binds at site II (sub-domain IIIA) of BSA.

Abstract
In this study, the interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and a copper complex of carmoisine dye; [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ], was studied in vitro using multi-spectroscopic methods. It was found that the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA was quenched by the addition of the [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ] complex and the quenching mechanism was considered as static quenching by formation of a [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ]-HSA complex. The binding constant was about 104 M-1 at room temperature. The values of the calculated thermodynamic parameters (ΔH < 0 and ΔS > 0) suggested that both hydrogen bonds and the hydrophobic interactions were involved in the binding process. The site marker competitive experiments revealed that the binding of [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ] to HSA primarily occurred in subdomain IIIA (site II) of HSA. The results of circular dichroism (CD) and UV-vis spectroscopy showed that the micro-environment of amino acid residues and the conformation of HSA were changed after addition of the [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ] complex. Finally, the binding of the [Cu(carmoisine)2 (H2 O)2 ] complex to HSA was modelled by a molecular docking method. Excellent agreement was obtained between the experimental and theoretical results with respect to the binding forces and binding constant.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2017; 173:562-571.

Abstract
Sea buckthorn has gained importance as a versatile nutraceutical, due to its high nutritive value in terms of carotenoids content. β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) is a natural carrier for various bioactive compounds. In this study, the effect of thermal treatment in the temperature range of 25 to 100°C for 15min on the complex formed by β-LG and carotenoids from sea buckthorn was reported, based on fluorescence spectroscopy, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation results. Also, the berries extracts were analyzed for their carotenoids content. The chromatographic profile of the sea buckthorn extracts revealed the presence of zeaxanthin and β-carotene, as major compounds. The Stern-Volmer constants and binding parameters between β-LG and β-carotene were estimated based on quenching experiments. When thermally treating the β-LG-carotenoids mixtures, an increase in intrinsic and extrinsic fluorescence intensity up to 90°C was observed, together with blue-shifts in maximum emission in the lower temperature range and red-shifts at higher temperature. Based on fluorescence spectroscopy results, the unfolding of the protein molecules at high temperature was suggested. Detailed information obtained at atomic level revealed that events taking place in the complex heated at high temperature caused important changes in the β-carotene binding site, therefore leading to a more thermodynamically stable assembly. This study can be used to understand the changes occurring at molecular level that could help food operators to design new ingredients and functional foods, and to optimize the processing methods in order to obtain healthier food products.

Abstract
Under physiological conditions, in vitro interaction between the antiviral drug 2,7-bis[2-(diethylamino)ethoxy]-9-fluorenone dihydrochloride (Tilorone, TIL) and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated at excitation wavelength 280 nm and at different temperatures (298 K and 313 K) by fluorescence emission spectroscopy. TIL showed a strong ability to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching procedure. The binding constant is estimated as KA =7.19× 104L·mol-1 at 298 K. The enthalpy change (ΔHº) and entropy change (ΔSº) were derived to be negative values. A value of 1.63 nm for the average distance r between TIL (acceptor) and tryptophan residues of HSA (donor) was derived from the fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
