Abstract
This review examined a collection of studies regarding the molecular properties of some polyene antibiotic molecules as well as their properties in solution and in particular environmental conditions. We also looked into the proposed mechanism of action of polyenes, where membrane properties play a crucial role. Given the interest in polyene antibiotics as therapeutic agents, we looked into alternative ways of reducing their collateral toxicity, including semi-synthesis of derivatives and new formulations. We follow with studies on the role of membrane structure and, finally, recent developments regarding the most important clinical applications of these compounds.

Wang Y, Cui L, Feng C, Dong Z, Fan W, Peijnenburg WJGM. Taxon-toxicity study of fish to typical transition metals: Most sensitive species are edible fish. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2021; 284:117154. [PMID: 33930782 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2021.117154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2021] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Transition metals are widespread in aquatic environments and can be harmful when concentrations exceed thresholds. Especially for fish, an important component of the human diet, low concentrations of transition metals will directly affect their well-being. Different taxa are protected by unified water quality criteria (WQC) thresholds, which rarely consider the ecological status and economic value of different species. There is therefore an urgent need to study taxon-specific sensitivity. The present study established the species sensitivity distributions of nine typical transition metals (Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ag, Cd and Hg) for protecting freshwater and seawater fish based on non-parametric kernel density estimation methods, and then derived their acute and chronic HC5-values. The results showed that Ag and Hg have the highest acute toxic potency to fish in freshwater as well as seawater. Compared with marine fish, freshwater fish were more tolerant to acute exposure to Cr, Fe, Ni and Zn, whilst being more sensitive to Ag and Cd. Moreover, edible fish are more sensitive than other fish to these metals in both freshwater and seawater, encouraging more protection of economically valuable fish that may potentially affect human health. The study provides a strong reference for future research on taxon-specific WQC for transition metals.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 780:146483.

Abstract
Environment pollution is getting serious and various poisonous contaminants with chemical durability, biotoxicity and bioaccumulation have been widespreadly discovered in municipal wastewaters and surface water. The detection and removal of pollutants show great significance for the protection of human health and other organisms. Due to its distinctive physical and chemical properties, perylene diimide (PDI) has received widespread attention from different research fields, especially in the area of environment. In this review, a comprehensive summary of the development of PDI-based materials in fluorescence detection and advanced oxidation technology for environment was introduced. Firstly, we chiefly presented the recent progress about the synthesis of PDI and PDI-based nanomaterials. Then, their application in fluorescence detection for environment was presented and categorized, principally including the detection of heavy metal ions, harmful anions and organic contaminants in the environment. In addition, the application of PDI and PDI-based materials in different advanced oxidation technologies for environment, such as photocatalysis, photoelectrocatalysis, Fenton and Fenton-like reaction and persulfate activation, was also summarized. At last, the challenges and future prospects of PDI-based materials in environmental applications were discussed. This review focuses on presenting the practical applications of PDI and PDI-based materials as fluorescent probes or catalysts (especially photocatalysts) in the detection of hazardous substances or catalytic elimination of organic contaminants. The contents are aimed at supplying the researchers with a deeper understanding of PDI and PDI-based materials and encouraging their further development in environmental applications.

Abstract
Hypothesis Amphotericin B (AmB) is a highly effective antimicrobial, with broad antimycotic and antiparasitic effect. However, AmB poor water-solubilisation and aggregation tendency limits its use for topical applications. We studied the capacity of nanostructures formed by alkyl esters of L-ascorbic acid (ASCn) to solubilise AmB and tested the relationship between the prevalence of the monomeric form of AmB and its effectiveness as antimicrobial agent. Experiments We developed self-assembled nanostructures formed by the commercial compound, palmitoyl ascorbic acid, as well as the shorter chained myristoyl and lauroyl ascorbic acid. AmB loaded ASCn nanostructures were studied by a combination of spectroscopic techniques, together with particle analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, microbiological tests, and Langmuir monolayer visualisation. Findings We found no direct relation between the antimicrobial capacity and the prevalence of the monomeric form of the drug. However, the later was related to chemical stability and colloidal robustness. Nanostructures formed by ASC16 in its anionic state provide an appropriate environment for AmB in its monomeric form, maintaining its antimicrobial capacity. Langmuir film visualisation supports spectrophotometric evidence, indicating that ASC16 allows the in-plane solubilisation of AmB. Coagels formed by ASC16 appear as promising for carrying AmB for dermal delivery.

Abstract
The purpose of this work was to determine the degradation pathway of Amphotericin B (AmB) and its kinetics in lipid-based solutions. Mixtures of AmB in lipophilic solvent media were stored under different conditions, such as surface area, temperature, light exposure, presence of antioxidants and other co-solutes. AmB was quantified by HPLC and UV-Vis spectrometry. Empirical models were proposed, and degradation rate constants were estimated by nonlinear regression. The HPLC method was precise and accurate with linearity from 4.45 to 52.0 nM. Surface area studies revealed that adsorption to glass did not affect AmB loss. Unsaturated oils and methanol better preserved AmB compared to medium chain-triglyceride. Temperature increased AmB loss in a nonlinear behavior and the presence of antioxidants reduced its degradation. Under dark conditions, autoxidation was the predominant degradation pathway of AmB in oil, which undergoes a complex degradation. Under light exposure, photo-oxidation accounted for AmB loss, which appeared to be of pseudo-first order. AmB oily samples should be preferably stored in glass vials protected from light with the addition of antioxidants. Furthermore, this work encourages further investigation in other media for future complex modeling and estimation of AmB degradation and kinetics in lipid-based formulations.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal and cytotoxic activities of the oxidized form of amphotericin B (AmB-Ox) as well as to determine whether oxidation process of AmB is therapeutically beneficial in vitro. The antifungal activity was estimated against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and Candida parasilosis ATCC 22019 by broth microdilution method according to the NCCLS M27-A2 standards. The in vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated using normal green monkey kidney cells (GMK) by MTT assay. The obtained results demonstrated that AmB-Ox possesses 16-fold decreased antifungal properties against the two Candida strains and 5-fold lower cytotoxic activity towards GMK cells in comparison with AmB. The therapeutic safety in vitro assessed by calculating the ratio between cytotoxicity (CC50 value) to antifungal activity (MIC value) showed that oxidation of AmB is a very unfavourable process in vitro, because leads to formation of derivative (AmB-Ox) that lost antifungal properties much more rapidly than cytotoxic activity. Thus, the process of the oxidation of AmB in vivo (if it occurs) can be also highly harmful for patient.
