Abstract
Metal ion recognition is one of the most prospective research topics in the field of chemical sensors due to its wide range of clinical, biological and environmental applications. In this context, hydrazones are well known compounds that exhibit metal sensing and several biological properties due to the presence of N=CH- bond. Some of the biological properties includes anti-cancer, anti-tumor, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial activities. Hydrazones are also used as a ligand to detect metal ion as well as to generate metal complexes that exhibit medicinal properties. Thus, in recent years, many attempts were made to develop novel ligands with enhanced metal sensing and medicinal properties. In this review, some of the recent development on the hydrazones and their copper complexes are covered from the last few years from 2015-2023. These includes significance of copper ions, synthesis, biological properties, mechanism and metal sensing properties of some of the copper complexes were discussed.

Postma GC, Degregorio O, Minatel L. Analysis of the value of copper erythrocyte concentration measurement in the diagnosis of copper deficiency in bovines. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2023; 79:127228. [PMID: 37315392 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2023.127228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A reliable and practical method for assessing Cu status in live animals is not available. Blood Cu levels may not accurately reflect the true Cu status of the herd, and can over-predict Cu status during stress and inflammation. On the other hand, assessment of liver Cu is the most reliable indicator of Cu stores, but it is an invasive procedure that requires specialized training. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of Cu levels in red blood cells to determine the Cu status, with special emphasis in their correlation with erythrocyte Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase enzyme activity (ESOD), in bovines with Cu deficiency induced by high molybdenum and sulfur levels in the diet. METHODS Three similar assays were performed, with a total of twenty eight calves. The Cu-deficient group (n = 15) received a basal diet supplemented with 11 mg of Mo/kg DM as sodium molybdate, and S as sodium sulfate. The control group (n = 13) received a basal diet supplemented with 9 mg of Cu/kg DM as copper sulfate. Samples of blood and liver were taken every 28-35 days. Cu levels were measured in liver (expressed as µg/g DM), plasma (expressed as µg/dl), and erythrocytes (expressed as µg/g Hb) by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy. Superoxide dismutase (SOD1) activity was determined in red blood cells and was expressed as IU/mg hemoglobin. InfoStat Statistical Software 2020 was used for the statistical analysis. Cu levels in plasma, red blood cells and liver, and ESOD activity were analyzed by ANOVA. The correlation between erythrocyte Cu levels and the rest of the parameters were analyzed by Pearson Correlation test. Unweighted Least Squares Linear Regression of SOD1 was developed. The autocorrelation between the monthly measurements was also determined by Durbin-Watson test and autocorrelation function. RESULTS The assays lasted 314-341 days, approximately. Levels indicative of Cu deficiency for bovines were detected at 224 days (23 ± 11.6 µg/g DM) for liver Cu concentration; and at 198 days (55 ± 10.4 µg/dl) for plasma Cu concentration, in Cu-deficient animals. Liver and plasma Cu values indicative of Cu deficiency were not observed in the control group. Pearson Correlation test indicated that all indices of Cu status used in this study were significantly correlated. The highest value was obtained between ESOD and red blood Cu (0.74). There was a significant correlation between red blood Cu and plasma Cu (0.65), and with hepatic Cu (0.57). ESOD activity showed a similar significant positive correlation with liver Cu concentrations and with plasma Cu (0.59 and 0.58, respectively). CONCLUSION The extremely low levels of liver and plasma Cu, the ESOD activity, erythrocyte Cu levels, and the periocular achromotrichia observed in the Cu-deficient animals showed that the clinic phase of Cu deficiency was reached in this group. The ESOD activity and erythrocyte Cu levels showed a strong association, indicating that the values of erythrocyte Cu may serve as an effective tool in assessing Cu status and diagnose a long-term Cu deficiency in cattle.

Abstract
Treatment of drug-resistant forms of cancer requires consideration of their hallmark features, such as abnormal cell death mechanisms or mutations in drug-responding molecular pathways. Malignant cells differ from their normal counterparts in numerous aspects, including copper metabolism. Intracellular copper levels are elevated in various cancer types, and this phenomenon could be employed for the development of novel oncotherapeutic approaches. Copper maintains the cell oxidation levels, regulates the protein activity and metabolism, and is involved in inflammation. Various copper-based compounds, such as nanoparticles or metal-based organic complexes, show specific activity against cancer cells according to preclinical studies. Herein, we summarize the major principles of copper metabolism in cancer cells and its potential in cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Abnormality in myocardial copper homeostasis is believed to contribute to the development of cardiomyopathy. Trientine, a copper-chelating drug used in the management of patients with Wilson's disease, demonstrates beneficial effects in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This review aims to present the updated development of the roles of trientine in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The drug has been demonstrated in animal studies to restore myocardial intracellular copper content. However, its mechanisms for improving the medical condition remain unclear. Thus, comprehending its mechanistic aspects in cardiomyopathy is crucial and could help to expedite future research.

BMC Vet Res 2022; 18:76. [PMID: 35189882 PMCID: PMC8862336 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-022-03173-z] [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: 11/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Transmissible venereal tumors (TVT) are a wide range of canine tumors for which there are no effective markers to monitor the therapeutic response in real-time. Circulating biomarkers can be valuable in early cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate the significance of the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and cfDNA integrity index to monitor the response of TVTs to vincristine and compare them with lysyl oxidase activity. Plasma and sera were collected from fifteen male dogs within four weeks before drug administration. The analytical method was mainly based on the quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technique for short and long cfDNAs and lysyl oxidase activity was measured in serum. Results The results of the cfDNA integrity index showed a significant (p < 0.05) difference in the baseline concentration compared to the second and third weeks (with cut-off values of 1.118 and 93.33% specificity). The cfDNA integrity index increased over time due to the reduction of short cfDNAs in the first week after treatment. Lysyl oxidase activity increased during the fourth week (p < 0.001), but there were no significant differences in the other weeks compared to the baseline. The ROC analysis of lysyl oxidase revealed high sensitivity (100%) and specificity (90%) on the second and third weeks compared to the baseline. Multivariate analysis between cfDNA integrity index and lysyl oxidase showed significant correlation (p < 0.05) only in baseline results. Conclusions Overall, short cfDNA, the cfDNA integrity index, and lysyl oxidase activity can be proposed as diagnostic biomarkers and putative prognostic candidates in TVT patients. These biomarkers can be combined with cytology to quickly diagnose TVT. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12917-022-03173-z.
