Wuensche TE, Nauta S, van Dongen GAMS, Vugts DJ. Improving Routine 89Zr-Immuno-PET Applications: Mild Iron Removal Can Favor the Use of Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP Ester Over p-NCS-Bz-DFO. J Labelled Comp Radiopharm 2024; 67:280-287. [PMID: 38744538 DOI: 10.1002/jlcr.4097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
A key aspect for the applicability of 89Zr-radioimmunoconjugates is inert modification and radiolabeling. The two commercially available bifunctional variants of the siderophore desferrioxamine (DFO), Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP-ester and p-NCS-Bz-DFO, are most often used for clinical 89Zr-immuno-PET. The use of Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP-ester is advantageous with regard to higher radiolysis stability and more facile assessment of radiochemical purity as well as chelator-to-mAb ratio. However, not all mAbs withstand the Fe-removal step at relatively low pH (4-4.5) using EDTA, which is needed after conjugation to allow 89Zr labeling. In this study, it was investigated whether hydroxybenzyl ethylenediamine (HBED) or the clinically approved deferiprone (DFP) can serve as an alternative for EDTA to establish a pH-independent mild method for Fe-removal and thereby broaden the applicability of Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP-ester. Carrier-added [59Fe]Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP-ester was used for mAb modification to enable direct tracking of the Fe-removal efficiency under various conditions. Whereas incomplete Fe-removal with HBED was observed at pH 5 or higher, Fe-removal with DFP was possible at a broad pH range (4-9). This provides a mild, pH-independent method for Fe-removal, improving the applicability and attractiveness of Fe-DFO-N-suc-TFP-ester for 89Zr-mAb preparation.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15051297. [PMID: 36904538 PMCID: PMC10007213 DOI: 10.3390/polym15051297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Ferritin with a highly symmetrical cage-like structure is not only key in the reversible storage of iron in efficient ferroxidase activity; it also provides unique coordination environments for the conjugation of heavy metal ions other than those associated with iron. However, research regarding the effect of these bound heavy metal ions on ferritin is scarce. In the present study, we prepared a marine invertebrate ferritin from Dendrorhynchus zhejiangensis (DzFer) and found that it could withstand extreme pH fluctuation. We then demonstrated its capacity to interact with Ag+ or Cu2+ ions using various biochemical and spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. Structural and biochemical analyses revealed that both Ag+ and Cu2+ were able to bind to the DzFer cage via metal-coordination bonds and that their binding sites were mainly located inside the three-fold channel of DzFer. Furthermore, Ag+ was shown to have a higher selectivity for sulfur-containing amino acid residues and appeared to bind preferentially at the ferroxidase site of DzFer as compared with Cu2+. Thus, it is far more likely to inhibit the ferroxidase activity of DzFer. The results provide new insights into the effect of heavy metal ions on the iron-binding capacity of a marine invertebrate ferritin.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, affecting millions of people around the world. Even though the causes of AD are not completely understood due to its multifactorial nature, some neuropathological hallmarks of its development have been related to the high concentration of some metal cations. These roles include the participation of these metal cations in the production of reactive oxygen species, which have been involved in neuronal damage. In order to avoid the increment in the oxidative stress, multifunctional ligands used to coordinate these metal cations have been proposed as a possible treatment to AD. In this review, we present the recent advances in experimental and computational works aiming to understand the role of two redox active and essential transition-metal cations (Cu and Fe) and one nonbiological metal (Al) and the recent proposals on the development of multifunctional ligands to stop or revert the damaging effects promoted by these metal cations.

Abstract
Iron deficiency conditions as well as iron supplied as a Fe(III)-mimosine complex induced a number of strategy I and strategy II genes for iron uptake in leucaena. Leucaena leucocephala (leucaena) is a tree-legume that can grow in alkaline soils, where metal-cofactors like Fe(III) are sparingly available. Mimosine, a known chelator of Fe(III), may facilitate Fe(III) uptake in leucaena by serving as a phytosiderophore. To test if mimosine can serve as a phytosiderophore, three sets of experiments were carried out. First, the binding properties and solubility of metal-mimosine complexes were assessed through spectrophotometry. Second, to study mimosine uptake in plants, pole bean, common bean, and tomato plants were supplied with mimosine alone and metal-mimosine complexes. Third, the expression of strategy I (S1) and strategy II (S2) genes for iron uptake from the soil was studied in leucaena plants exposed to different Fe(III) complexes. The results of this study show that (i) mimosine has high binding affinity for metallic cations at alkaline pH, Fe(III)-mimosine complexes are water soluble at alkaline pH, and that mimosine can bind soil iron under alkaline pH; (ii) pole bean, common bean, and tomato plants can uptake mimosine and transport it throughout the plant; and (iii) a number of S1 and S2 genes were upregulated in leucaena under iron-deficiency condition or when Fe(III) was supplied as a Fe(III)-mimosine complex. These findings suggest that leucaena may utilize both S1 and S2 strategies for iron uptake; and mimosine may play an important role in both strategies.

Abstract
Over the last two decades, the group of techniques called affinity probe CE has been widely used for the detection and the determination of several types of biomolecules with high sensitivity. These techniques combine the low sample consumption and high separation power of CE with the selectivity of the probe to the target molecule. The assays can be defined according to the type of probe used: CE immunoassays, with an antibody as the probe, or aptamer-based CE, with an aptamer as the probe. Immunoassays are generally divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous groups, and homogeneous variant can be further performed in competitive or noncompetitive formats. Interacting partners are free in solution at homogeneous assay, as opposed to heterogeneous analyses, where one of them is immobilized onto a solid support. Highly sensitive fluorescence, chemiluminescence or electrochemical detections were typically used in this type of study. The use of the aptamers as probes has several advantages over antibodies such as shorter generation time, higher thermal stability, lower price, and lower variability. The aptamer-based CE technique was in practice utilized for the determination of proteins in biological fluids and environmentally or clinically important small molecules. Both techniques were also transferred to microchip. This review is focused on theoretical principles of these techniques and a summary of their applications in research.

Abstract
Nearly all processes in living organisms are controlled and regulated by the synergy of many biomolecule interactions involving proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, nucleotides, saccharides, and small molecular weight ligands. There is growing interest in understanding them, not only for the purposes of interactomics as an essential part of system biology, but also in their further elucidation in disease pathology, diagnostics, and treatment. The necessity of detailed investigation of these interactions leads to the requirement of laboratory methods characterized by high efficiency and sensitivity. As a result, many instrumental approaches differing in their fundamental principles have been developed, including those based on capillary electrophoresis. Although capillary electrophoresis offers numerous advantages for such studies, it still has one serious limitation, its poor concentration sensitivity with the most commonly used detection method-ultraviolet-visible spectrometry. However, coupling capillary electrophoresis with a more sensitive detector fulfils the above-mentioned requirement. In this review, capillary electrophoresis combined with fluorescence, mass spectrometry, and several nontraditional detection techniques in affinity interaction studies are summarized and discussed, together with the possibility of conducting these measurements in microchip format.

Abstract
In this study, a novel aptamer - based fluorescence bio-sensor (aptamer-AuNps) was developed for chiral recognition of arginine (Arg) enantiomers based on aptamer and gold nanoparticles (AuNps). Carboxyfluorescein (FAM) labeled aptamers (Apt) were absorbed on AuNps and their fluorescence intensity could be significantly quenched by AuNps based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Once d-Arg or l-Arg were added into the above solution, the aptamer specifically bind to Arg enantiomers and released from AuNps, so the fluorescence intensity of d-Arg system and l-Arg system were all enhanced. The affinity of Apt to l-Arg is tighter to d-Arg, so the enhanced fluorescence signals of l-Arg system was stronger than d-Arg system. What's more, the enhanced fluorescence were directly proportional to the concentration of d-Arg and l-Arg ranging from 0-300 nM and 0-400 nM with related coefficients of 0.9939 and 0.9952, respectively. Furthermore, the method was successfully applied to detection l-Arg in human urine samples with satisfactory results. Eventually, a simple "OR" logic gate with d-Arg &l-Arg as inputs and AuNps aggregation state as outputs was fabricated, which can help us understand the chiral recognition process deeply.

Abstract
The study of biomolecular interactions is crucial to get more insight into the biological system. The interactions of protein-protein, protein-nucleic acids, protein-sugars, nucleic acid-nucleic acids and protein-small molecules are supporting therapeutics and technological developments. Recently, the development in a large number of analytical techniques for characterizing biomolecular interactions reflect the promising research investments in this field. In this review, microscale thermophoresis technology (MST) is presented as an analytical technique for characterizing biomolecular interactions. Recent years have seen much progress and several applications established. MST is a powerful technique in quantitation of binding events based on the movement of molecules in microscopic temperature gradient. Simplicity, free solutions analysis, low sample volume, short analysis time, and immobilization free are the MST advantages over other competitive techniques. A wide range of studies in biomolecular interactions have been successfully carried out using MST, which tend to the versatility of the technique to use in screening binding events in order to save time, cost and obtained high data quality.
