[PMID: 37976890 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115849] [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: 08/19/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Tumor cells and macrophages communicate through the secretion of various cytokines to jointly promote the malignant development of cancers. We synthesized and characterized an oxoaporphine Pr(III) complex (PrL3(NO3)3) and found that it inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and metastasis by disrupting HCC cell-macrophage crosstalk. PrL3(NO3)3 treatment upregulated CD86, TNF-α, and IL-1β and downregulated CD163, CD206, CCL2, and VEGFA in macrophages. Our mRNA-Seq results demonstrated that PrL3(NO3)3 inhibited macrophage M2-like polarization by inhibiting the AMPK pathway and activating the NF-κB pathway by upregulating RelA/p65 Ser536 phosphorylation. This kind of macrophage polarization significantly inhibited HCC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. In addition, PrL3(NO3)3 inhibited the migration, invasion, and chemotaxis of HCC cells by downregulating the expression of EMT-related markers and CCL2. hTFtarget database analysis revealed that PrL3(NO3)3 inhibited NF-κB nuclear translocation by upregulating RelA/p65 Ser536 phosphorylation in HCC cells, thereby downregulating the expression of Snail and CCL2. HCC tissue microarray analysis revealed that downregulation of RelA/p65 Ser536 phosphorylation is a driving event in HCC malignant progression. In conclusion, PrL3(NO3)3 effectively inhibits HCC cell-macrophage crosstalk by upregulating RelA/p65 Ser536 phosphorylation. This is the first report of a lanthanide complex exerting regulatory effects on both tumors and tumor-associated macrophages, providing a new strategy for the development of effective antitumor drugs.

Bioactivity Features of a Zn-1%Mg-0.1%Dy Alloy Strengthened by Equal-Channel Angular Pressing. Biomimetics (Basel) 2023; 8:408. [PMID: 37754159 PMCID: PMC10526681 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8050408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The structure, phase composition, corrosion and mechanical properties, as well as aspects of biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo, of a Zn-1%Mg-0.1%Dy alloy after equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) were studied. The structure refinement after ECAP leads to the formation of elongated α-Zn grains with a width of ~10 µm and of Mg- and Dy-containing phases. In addition, X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated that ECAP resulted in the formation of the basal texture in the alloy. These changes in the microstructure and texture lead to an increase in ultimate tensile strength up to 262 ± 7 MPa and ductility up to 5.7 ± 0.2%. ECAP slows down the degradation process, apparently due to the formation of a more homogeneous microstructure. It was found that the alloy degradation rate in vivo after subcutaneous implantation in mice is significantly lower than in vitro ones. ECAP does not impair biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo of the Zn-1%Mg-0.1%Dy alloy. No signs of suppuration, allergic reactions, the formation of visible seals or skin ulcerations were observed after implantation of the alloy. This may indicate the absence of an acute reaction of the animal body to the Zn-1%Mg-0.1%Dy alloy in both states.

Abstract
To learn more about the chemotherapeutic and pharmacokinetic properties of a neodymium complex containing 1,10-phenanthroline (dafone), In vitro binding was investigated with bovine serum albumin and fish-salmon DNA, using a variety of molecular modeling research and biophysical approaches. A variety of spectroscopic techniques including fluorescence and absorption were used to investigate the interplay between DNA/BSA and the neodymium complex. The findings revealed that the Nd complex had a high affinity for BSA and DNA interplays through van der Waals powers. In addition, the binding of the Nd complex to FS-DNA mainly in the groove binding mode clearly reflects with iodide quenching studies, ethidium bromide (EtBr) exclusion assay, ionic strength effect, and viscosity studies. It was observed that the Nd complex binds to FS-DNA through a minor groove with 3.81 × 105 (M-1). Also, Kb for BSA at 298 K was 5.19×105 (M-1), indicating a relatively high affinity of the Nd complex for DNA and BSA. In addition, a competitive study of a docking investigation revealed that the neodymium complex interacts at BSA site III. The results obtained from the binding calculations are well consistent with the experimental findings. Also, cytotoxicity studies of Nd complex were performed in MCF-7 and A-549 cell lines and the results show that this new complex has a selective inhibitory effect on the growth of various cancer cells.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets as carriers have shown promising potential for surface-displaying or loading various drugs. Nevertheless, developing sheet-like materials themselves into an immunoregulator has never been realized so far. In this study, we take advantage of the immunoregulatory effects of rare earth elements themselves and develop water-soluble erbium-dysprosium 2D nanosheets (2D NSs). Such 2D NSs can target lymph nodes and activate macrophages to improve vaccine efficacy in mice significantly. Transcriptome analysis further reveals that six critical molecules (Msr1, Ccr2, Serpinb9, Klrk1, Klrd1, Klrc1) closely correlate with 2D NS-mediated immunoregulation in vivo. For the first time, the present work realizes a proof-of-concept for designing immunoregulatory 2D NSs and shows a promising potential of 2D NSs for improving the immunoprophylaxis/immunotherapy of vaccines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this research, the biological properties of the yttrium (III) (Y) complex, with 2,9-dimethyl- 1,10-phenanthroline (Me2Phen) ligand, were examined for in vitro fish DNA (FS-DNA)/ bovine serum albumin (BSA) interactions, DNA-cleavage, anticancer and antibacterial activities. METHODS Multi-spectrophotometric techniques and computational calculations were used for the interaction studies of the BSA and FS-DNA with the Y-complex. Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy methods were used to define thermodynamic parameters, the binding constants (Kb), and the probable binding mechanism. Also, the DFT (density functional theory) study and molecular docking calculation of the Y-complex were done. Besides, the nanocarriers of Y-complex (lipid nanoencapsulation (LNEP) and the starch nanoencapsulation (SNEP)), as active anticancer candidates, were prepared. Finally, DNA-cleavage, anticancer, and antibacterial activities of this complex were investigated. RESULTS The absorption and fluorescence measurements were exhibited that the Y-complex has a high binding affinity to FS-DNA and BSA through a static mechanism. The negative thermodynamic parameter values for both DNA/BSA binding were confirmed that the hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces played an essential role in the spontaneous bonding procedure. The site marker competitive studies for BSA confirmed that the Y-complex bonds to the sub-domain IB of protein (site III) on BSA, which was entirely agreement by docking calculation. The complex has displayed efficient DNA cleavage, antifungal and antibacterial activities. The anticancer activity of the Y-complex and its starch/lipid nano-encapsulated was carried out in cancer cell lines, which exposed considerably high activity. CONCLUSIONS Thus, Y-complex can be transported professionally through BSA in the blood and bonds in the groove of DNA. Base on biological applications of the Y-complex, it can be concluded that this complex and its nanocarriers can suggest as novel anticancer and antibacterial candidates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a crucial need for finding and developing new compounds as the anticancer and antimicrobial agents with better activity, specific target, and less toxic side effects. OBJECTIVES Base on the potential anticancer properties of lanthanide complexes, in the paper, the biological applications of terbium (Tb) complex, containing 2,9-dimethyl- 1,10-phenanthroline (Me2Phen) such as anticancer, antimicrobial, DNA cleavage ability, the interaction with FS-DNA (Fish-Salmon DNA) and BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) was examined. METHODS The interaction of Tb-complex with BSA and DNA was studied by emission spectroscopy, absorption titration, viscosity measurement, CD spectroscopy, competitive experiments, and docking calculation. Also, the ability of this complex to cleave DNA was reported by gel electrophoresis. Tb-complex was concurrently screened for its antibacterial activities by different methods. Besides, the nanocarriers of Tb-complex (lipid nanoencapsulation (LNEP) and the starch nanoencapsulation (SNEP)), as active anticancer candidates, were prepared. MTT technique was applied to measure the antitumor properties of these compounds on human cancer cell lines. RESULTS The experimental and docking results suggest significant binding between DNA as well as BSA with terbium-complex. Besides, groove binding plays the main role in the binding of this compound with DNA and BSA. The competitive experiment with hemin demonstrated that the terbium complex was bound at site III of BSA, which was confirmed by the docking study. Also, Tb-complex was concurrently screened for its DNA cleavage, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. The anticancer properties of LNEP and SNEP are more than the terbium compound. CONCLUSIONS Tb-complex can bond to DNA/BSA with high binding affinity. Base on biological applications of Tb-complex, it can be concluded that this complex and its nanocarriers can suggest as novel anticancer, antimicrobial candidates.

Abstract
Based on the potential anticancer properties of lanthanide complexes, the anticancer activity of the Sm(iii) complex containing a 2,2′-bipyridine ligand (bpy) and its interaction with FS-DNA (Fish-Salmon DNA) and BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) were examined experimentally and by molecular docking in this paper. Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic methods were used to define the thermodynamic parameters, binding constant (Kb), and the probable binding mechanism. It was concluded that the Sm complex interacts with FS-DNA through a minor groove with a Kb of 105 M−1. Also, the Kb for the BSA binding at 298 K was found to be 5.89 × 105 M−1, showing relatively a high tendency of the Sm complex to DNA and BSA. Besides, the Sm complex was docked to BSA and DNA by the autodock program. The results of the docking calculations were in good agreement with the experimental examinations. Additionally, the antifungal and antibacterial properties of this complex were investigated. The anticancer tests on the effect of the Sm complex, starch nano-encapsulation, and lipid nano-encapsulation in MCF-7 and A-549 cell lines were performed by the MTT method. It can be observed that the Sm complex and its nanocarriers presented a selective inhibitory effect on various cancer cell growths. The biological properties of the Sm-complex, such as its interaction with FS-DNA and BSA, anticancer, and antimicrobial activities were studied.![]()

Abstract
Three novel Ln(III) complexes, namely, [Pm(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (1), [Yb(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (2), and [Lu(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (3), with mixed 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-quinolinol (H-ClQ) and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl (dmbpy) chelating ligands were first synthesized. The cytotoxic activity of Ln(III) complexes 1-3, H-ClQ, and dmbpy against a panel of human normal and cancer cell lines, namely, human non-small cell lung cancer cells (NCI-H460), human cervical adenocarcinoma cancer cells, human ovarian cancer cells, and human normal hepatocyte cells, were evaluated by using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method. The three novel Ln(III) complexes showed a high in vitro antitumor activity toward the NCI-H460 with IC50 of 1.00 ± 0.25 nM for 1, 5.13 ± 0.44 μM for 2, and 11.87 ± 0.79 μM for 3, respectively. In addition, Ln(III) complexes 1 and 2 exerted their in vitro antitumor activity/mechanism mainly via the mitochondrial death pathway and caused a G2/M phase arrest in the following order: 1 > 2. An NCI-H460 tumor xenograft mouse model was used to evaluate the Pm(III) complex 1in vivo antitumor activity. Pm(III) complex 1 showed a high in vivo antitumor activity, and the tumor growth inhibition rate (IR) was 56.0% (p < 0.05). In summary, our study on Pm(III) complex 1 revealed promising results in in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity assays.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study is an extension to our finding of direct anti-oxidant activities of lanthanide(III) complexes with the heterocyclic compound, 5-aminoorotic acid (AOA). In this experiment, we used AOA and coumarin-3-carboxylic acid as the two heterocyclic compounds with anti-oxidant potential, to produce the complexes with different lanthanides. METHODS Lanthanide(III) complexes were tested on the iron-driven Fenton reaction. The product of this reaction, the hydroxyl radical, was detected by HPLC. RESULTS All complexes as well as their ligands had positive or neutral effect on the Fenton reaction but their behavior was different. Both pure ligands in low concentration ratio to iron were inefficient in contrast to some of their complexes. Complexes of neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, and partly of cerium blocked the Fenton reaction at very low ratios (in relation to iron) but the effect disappeared at higher ratios. In contrast, lanthanum complexes appeared to be the most promising. Both blocked the Fenton reaction in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION Lanthanide(III) complexes were proven to block the iron-driven production of the hydroxyl radical. Second, the lanthanide(III) element appears to be crucial for the anti-oxidant effect. Overall, lanthanum complexes may be promising direct anti-oxidants for future testing.

Abstract
The interaction of a hematoxylin(HE)-Dy(Ш) complex with herring sperm DNA(hsDNA) was studied using acridine orange(AO) as a probe by UV-vis absorption, circular dichroism(CD), fluorescence spectroscopy and viscosity measurements. From the results of the probe experiment, we found that the HE-Dy(Ш) complex could compete with AO for intercalating into hsDNA. The binding constants of the HE-Dy(Ш) complex to hsDNA was obtained by the double reciprocal method and indicated that the affinity between hsDNA and the complex is weaker than that between hsDNA and classical intercalators. The thermodynamic parameters(ΔH°, ΔG°, ΔS°) were calculated from the UV-vis absorption data measured at two different temperatures. Further experimental results suggested that there exist groove binding and partial intercalation binding between hsDNA and HE-Dy(Ш) complex.

Abstract
The structure-activity relationship of the anticoagulant drug warfarin were studied by studying two enantiomeric forms (S-form and R-form) of warfarin and its protonated as well as deprotonated structures in aqueous media using density functional theory (DFT). Theoretically computed Raman and IR spectra of all the computed structures were compared and their specific vibrational spectroscopic signatures were discussed. The percentage contributions of individual normal modes of warfarin, which provides direct evidence of the different molecular activity due to change in relative atomic position of atoms in molecule, were investigated through potential energy distribution (PED). The optimized energy and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) maps show that the S-form of the drug molecules warfarin is energetically more stable than R-form and provides higher docking opportunity for the molecular binding with the receptors in the bio-systems.
