Abstract
Metal ions carry out a wide variety of functions, including acid-base/redox catalysis, structural functions, signaling, and electron transport. Understanding the interactions of transition metal complexes with biomacromolecules is essential for biology, medicinal chemistry, and the production of synthetic metalloenzymes. After the coincidental discovery of cisplatin, importance of the metal complexes in biochemistry became a top priority for inquiry. In this review, a decade update on various synthetic strategies to first row transition metal complex and their interaction with DNA through non-covalent binding are explored. Moreover, this effort provides an excellent analysis on the efficacy of theoretical and practical approaches to the systematic generation of new non-platinum based metallodrugs for anti-cancer therapeutics.

Li H, Wang Q, Wang Y, Liu Y, Zhou J, Wang T, Zhu L, Guo J. EDTA enables to alleviate impacts of metal ions on conjugative transfer of antibiotic resistance genes. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 257:121659. [PMID: 38692255 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
Various heavy metals are reported to be able to accelerate horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). In real water environmental settings, ubiquitous complexing agents would affect the environmental behaviors of heavy metal ions due to the formation of metal-organic complexes. However, little is known whether the presence of complexing agents would change horizontal gene transfer due to heavy metal exposure. This study aimed to fill this gap by investigating the impacts of a typical complexing agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) on the conjugative transfer of plasmid-mediated ARGs induced by a range of heavy metal ions. At the environmentally relevant concentration (0.64 mg L-1) of metal ions, all the tested metal ions (Mg2+, Ca2+, Co2+, Pb2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Fe3+) promoted conjugative transfer of ARGs, while an inhibitory effect was observed at a relatively higher concentration (3.20 mg L-1). In contrast, EDTA (0.64 mg L-1) alleviated the effects of metal ions on ARGs conjugation transfer, evidenced by 11 %-66 % reduction in the conjugate transfer frequency. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations disclosed that this is attributed to the stronger binding of metal ions with the lipids in cell membranes. Under metal-EDTA exposure, gene expressions related to oxidative stress response, cell membrane permeability, intercellular contact, energy driving force, mobilization, and channels of plasmid transfer were suppressed compared with the metal ions exposure. This study offers insights into the alleviation mechanisms of complexing agents on ARGs transfer induced by free metal ions.

RSC Adv 2022; 12:29939-29958. [PMID: 36321099 PMCID: PMC9580502 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra03475a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Reactions of 3-formylchromone (L) with Ni(ii) and Co(ii) ions having different anions (acetate, perchlorate, nitrate, and chloride) yielded a series of binary and ternary octahedral complexes with the general formula [ML n L' m X y (S) a ]Z y ·bS, where M = Ni or Co, n = 1-3, L' = auxiliary ligand = 8-hydroxyquinoline or 1,10-phenanthroline, m = 1 or 2, X = acetate or chloride, y = 0 or 2, S = H2O or MeOH, a = 0-2, Z = nitrate or perchlorate and b = 0-1.5. Elemental and thermal analyses and infra-red, electronic, mass, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity measurements were successfully utilized to characterize the structures of the chromone complexes. The chromone ligand acts as a neutral bidentate ligand through its formyl and γ-pyrone oxygen atoms. The obtained complexes were formed with molar ratios 1 : 2 and 1 : 3 M : L for the binary and 1 : 2 : 1 and 1 : 1 : 1 M : L : L' for the ternary complexes. The kinetic parameters of the thermal degradation steps were estimated and explained using the Coats-Redfern equations. The synthesized complexes showed antimicrobial activity with higher activity toward Candida albicans and Bacillus subtilis. Docking studies showed good agreement with the antimicrobial activity. Molecular modeling of the synthesized complexes was performed using Hyperchem at the PM3 level and the calculated structures correlate with the experimental data.
