Abstract
Amyloid fibrils are self-assembled aggregates of proteins and peptides that can lead to a broad range of diseases called amyloidosis. So far, no definitive and approved treatment to target directly amyloid fibrils has been introduced. Nevertheless, the search for small molecules with ability to inhibit and suppress fibril formation is an active and promising area of the research. Herein, the binding interactions and inhibitory effects of myricetin and morin hydrate on the in vitro fibrillation of bovine α-lactalbumin (BLA) have been investigated. The intrinsic fluorescence of BLA was quenched by myricetin and morin hydrate through combination of the static and dynamic quenching along with non-radiative Förster energy transfer mechanisms. The binding of these two flavonoids to BLA were not accompanied by major alteration in the conformation of BLA as evidenced by CD studies. The results of the fluorescence quenching analyses indicated almost the same binding affinities of myricetin and morin hydrate toward BLA (Kb ~ 106 M-1). However, the results of thioflavin T (ThT) assays showed that myricetin is a stronger inhibitor against BLA fibrillation compared to morin hydrate.

Abstract
Alpha-lactalbumin (α-La) is a crucial active component in whey protein. It would be mixed with edible azo pigments during processing. Spectroscopic analyses and computer simulations were used here to characterize the interaction between acid red 27 (C27) /acidic red B (FB) and α-La. Fluorescence, thermodynamics, and energy transfer showed the binding mechanism is a static quenching with a medium affinity. This binding process occurred spontaneously and was mainly driven by hydrophobic forces. Conformation analysis showed FB led to a greater change in the secondary structure of α-La compared with C27. C27 increased and FB decreased the surface hydrophobicity of α-La. The spatial structures of complexes were visualized with computer aid. The azo colorant binds to α-La easily and deeply with a smaller space volume and dipole moment and thereby affecting the α-La conformation and functionality. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application of edible azo pigments.

Abstract
Caffeic acid (CA) is a phenolic acid found in a variety of foods. In this study, the interaction mechanism between α-lactalbumin (ALA) and CA was explored with the use of spectroscopic and computational techniques. The Stern-Volmer quenching constant data suggest a static mode of quenching between CA and ALA, depicting a gradual decrease in quenching constants with temperature rise. The binding constant, Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy values at 288, 298, and 310 K were calculated, and the obtained values suggest that the reaction is spontaneous and exothermic. Both in vitro and in silico studies show that hydrogen bonding is the dominant force in the CA-ALA interaction. Ser112 and Lys108 of ALA are predicted to form three hydrogen bonds with CA. The UV-visible spectroscopy measurements demonstrated that the absorbance peak A280nm increased after addition of CA due to conformational change. The secondary structure of ALA was also slightly modified due to CA interaction. The circular dichroism (CD) studies showed that ALA gains more α-helical structure in response to increasing concentration of CA. The surface hydrophobicity of ALA is not changed in the presence of ethanol and CA. The present findings shown herein are helpful in understanding the binding mechanism of CA with whey proteins for the dairy processing industry and food nutrition security.

Abstract
AbstractPhenolic compounds are ubiquitous plant secondary metabolites that possess various biological activities and are known to interact with proteins, altering their structure and properties. Therefore, interactions between these compounds and proteins has gained increasing attention due to their potential benefits to human health and for exploitation by the food industry. Phenolic compounds and proteins can form complexes via covalent linkages and/or non-covalent interactions through hydrophobic, electrostatic, van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding. This review describes possible mechanisms of phenol-protein complex formation, their physiological action and activities that are important in the food industry, and possible outcomes in the terms of molecular docking and simulation analysis. The conformational changes of the protein upon binding with polyphenols can lead to the folding or unfolding of the protein molecules, forming insoluble or soluble complexes. The concentration of polyphenols, their molecular weight and structure, ions/cofactors and conditions of the system determine the precipitation or solubilization of the complex, affecting their nutritional and functional properties as well as their bioactivities. In this regard, molecular docking and simulation studies of phenolic-protein interactions allows comprehensive virtual screening of competitive/non-competitive and site-specific/non-specific conjugation of phenolics with different protein targets and facilitates understanding the observed effects. The docking analysis of flavonoids with enzymes and milk proteins has indicated their potential application in producing nutraceuticals and functional foods. Thus, combining molecular docking and simulation studies with experimental techniques is vital for better understanding the reactions that take place during digestion to engineer and manufacture novel food ingredients with desirable pharmacological properties and as potential food additives.

Abstract
Along with the future food market developing world widely, the personalized nutrition and rational function food design are found to be urgently attracted. Oil in a water (O/W) emulsion system has an excellent ability to maintain nutraceuticals and thus plays a promising role in producing future functional foods. Understanding the interfacial related mechanisms involved are essential for improving the quality of food products. Protein can effectively reduce interfacial tension and stable immiscible phases. The interfacial properties of proteins directly affect the emulsion qualities, which have gradually become a prospective topic. This review will first briefly discuss the interfacial-related fundamental factors of proteins. Next, the paper thoroughly overviewed current physical and chemical strategies tailored to improving the interfacial and emulsion properties of proteins. To be summarized, a higher flexibility could allow protein to be more easily unfolded and adsorbed onto the interface but could also possibly form a softer interfacial film. Several physical strategies, such as thermal, ultrasound and especially high-pressure homogenization are well applied to improve the interfacial properties. The interfacial behavior is also altered by various green chemical strategies, such as pH adjustment, covalent modification, and low molecular weight (LMW) surfactant addition. These strategies upgraded emulsion properties by increasing adsorption load, accelerating diffusion and adsorption rate, associated with lowering interfacial tension, and promoting interfacial protein interactions. Future researches targeted at elucidating interfacial-bulk protein interactions, unraveling interfacial behavior through in silico tools, exploring connection between interfacial-industrial processing properties, and clarifying the interfacial-sensory-digestive relationships of O/W emulsions is needed to develop emulsion applications.

Abstract
Curcumin (CCM) is one of the most frequently explored plant compounds with various biological actions such as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antineoplastic, and antioxidant/anti-inflammatory properties. The laboratory data and clinical trials have demonstrated that the bioavailability and bioactivity of curcumin are influenced by the feature of the curcumin molecular complex types. Curcumin has a high capacity to form molecular complexes with proteins (such as whey proteins, bovine serum albumin, β-lactoglobulin), carbohydrates, lipids, and natural compounds (e.g., resveratrol, piperine, quercetin). These complexes increase the bioactivity and bioavailability of curcumin. The current review provides these derivatization strategies for curcumin in terms of biological and physico-chemical aspects with a strong focus on different type of proteins, characterization methods, and thermodynamic features of protein–curcumin complexes, and with the aim of evaluating the best performances. The current literature review offers, taking into consideration various biological effects of the CCM, a whole approach for CCM-biomolecules interactions such as CCM-proteins, CCM-nanomaterials, and CCM-natural compounds regarding molecular strategies to improve the bioactivity as well as the bioavailability of curcumin in biological systems.

Abstract
Reversible sol-gel transforming behaviors combined with tunable mechanical properties are vital demands for developing biomaterials. However, it remains challenging to correlate these properties with the hydrogels constructed by denatured protein as building blocks. Herein, taking advantage of naturally high-affinity coordination environments consisting of i, i + 4 His-Glu motifs offered by paramyosin, a ubiquitous nanofibrous protein, we found that Zn2+ rather than Ca2+ or Mg2+ has the ability to trigger the self-assembly of native abalone paramyosin (AbPM) into protein hydrogels under benign conditions, while the addition of EDTA induces the hydrogels back into protein monomers, indicative of a reversible process. By using such sol-gel reversible property, the AbPM gels can serve as a vehicle to encapsulate bioactive molecules such as curcumin, thereby protecting it from degradation from thermal and photo treatment. Notably, based on the high conserved structure of native AbPM, the mechanical property and biological activity of the fabricated AbPM hydrogels can be fined-tuned by its noncovalent interaction with small molecules. All these findings raise the possibility that native paramyosin can be explored as a new class of protein hydrogels which exhibit favorable properties that the traditional hydrogels constructed by denatured protein building blocks do not have.

Abstract
Phosvitin (PV) is the main phosphoprotein in egg yolk, with the highest degree of phosphorylation known in nature. The PV and resveratrol (Res) can form a complex, thus effectively improve the solubility of Res. In this work, the interaction between Res and PV was investigated by the fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking. The fluorescence emission intensity of PV became weak along with a red shift when it interacted with Res and the antioxidant activity was enhanced. The quenching constants of the interaction systems were 1.12×104 M-1 and 9.40×103 M-1 at 25°C and 35°C, respectively, which indicated the presence of static quenching phenomena between them. The binding constant was 1.80×104 M-1 , and the number of corresponding binding sites was approximately equal to one. The thermodynamic results revealed the combination was spontaneous, and the change of enthalpy and entropy was ∆H = 53.50 kJ/mol, ∆S = 261.00 J/mol·K, respectively. It indicated that the interaction forces between Res and PV were mainly hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonding. Molecular docking showed the binding mode, which was consistent with the experiment results. The research on the interaction between Res and PV provided theoretical guidance for the application of Res in food. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: PV is the most highly phosphorylated protein in nature and has pro-calcium absorption effects. Res is a polyphenol with strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, but its poor solubility limits its application. In this study, the solubility of Res was considerably enhanced by compounding Res and PV, and the antioxidant activity of Res was well retained. It increases the value of Res in food and other applications and opens up new possibilities for processing and utilization of PV.

Abstract
Lutein is a natural fat-soluble carotenoid with various physiological functions. However, its poor water solubility and stability restrict its application in functional foods. The present study sought to analyze the stability and interaction mechanism of the complex glycosylated soy protein isolate (SPI) prepared using SPI and inulin-type fructans and lutein. The results showed that glycosylation reduced the fluorescence intensity and surface hydrophobicity of SPI but improved the emulsification process and solubility. Fluorescence intensity and ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) absorption spectroscopy results showed that the fluorescence quenching of the glycosylated soybean protein isolate by lutein was static. Through thermodynamic parameter analysis, it was found that lutein and glycosylated SPI were bound spontaneously through hydrophobic interaction, and the binding stoichiometry was 1:1. The X-ray diffraction analysis results showed that lutein existed in the glycosylated soybean protein isolate in an amorphous form. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis results revealed that lutein had no effect on the secondary structure of glycosylated soy protein isolate. Meanwhile, the combination of lutein and glycosylated SPI improved the water solubility of lutein and the stability of light and heat.

Abstract
Based on the previous research, we found that the magnetic nanocomposite Fe3O4/rGO (reduced graphene oxide) has a good drug loading effect. Therefore, in this paper, we studied the positive role of Fe3O4/rGO as a drug carrier in the interaction between resveratrol (RES) and calf-thymus DNA (ct-DNA). The fluorescence experiment is used to evaluate by the Stern-Volmer equation, the quenching constant of RES - ct-DNA system with and without Fe3O4/rGO decreases with the increasing temperature. It was found the quenching mode of RES - ct-DNA and Fe3O4/rGO - RES - ct-DNA systems were all static quenching, but the binding constant of RES -ct-DNA increased from 4.14 ± 0.21 × 104 L mol-1 to 10.12 ± 0.02 × 104 L mol-1. It was found that Fe3O4/rGO formed a ternary complex with RES and ct-DNA by ultraviolet spectrum (UV-vis), resonance light scattering experiments (RLS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Meanwhile, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and circular dichroism (CD) experiments show that Fe3O4/rGO and Fe3O4/rGO loaded with RES have effect on the secondary structure of ct-DNA and change the conformation of ct-DNA. On the cellular level, the comet assay shows that Fe3O4/rGO and Fe3O4/rGO - RES could not cause DNA strand break to the mouse hepatocytes after 24 co-incubation. These results confirm that Fe3O4/rGO nanocomposites have good application potential, which can be used as a good drug carrier in a wide range of therapeutic methods.

Abstract
Enriched products with bioactive compounds (BCs) show the capacity to produce a wide range of possible health effects. Most BCs are essentially hydrophobic and sensitive to environmental factors; so, encapsulation becomes a strategy to solve these problems. Many globular proteins have the intrinsic ability to bind, protect, encapsulate, and introduce BCs into nutraceutical or pharmaceutical matrices. Among them, albumins as human serum albumin (HSA), bovine serum albumin (BSA), ovalbumin (OVA) and α-lactalbumin (ALA) are widely abundant, available, and applied in many industrial sectors, becoming promissory materials to encapsulate BCs. Therefore, this review focuses on researches about the main groups of natural origin BCs (namely phenolic compounds, lipids, vitamins, and carotenoids), the different types of nanostructures based on albumins to encapsulate them and the main fields of application for BCs-loaded albumin systems. In this context, phenolic compounds (catechins, quercetin, and chrysin) are the most extensively BCs studied and encapsulated in albumin-based nanocarriers. Other extensively studied subgroups are stilbenes and curcuminoids. Regarding lipids and vitamins; terpenes, carotenoids (β-carotene), and xanthophylls (astaxanthin) are the most considered. The main application areas of BCs are related to their antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Finally, BSA is the most used albumin to produced BCs-loaded nanocarriers.

Investigation of binding interaction between bovine α-lactalbumin and procyanidin B2 by spectroscopic methods and molecular docking. Food Chem 2022; 384:132509. [PMID: 35217463 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.132509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2021] [Revised: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
The interactions between bovine α-lactalbumin and procyanidin B2 were fully investigated by spectroscopic methods and molecular docking. This study hypothesized that ALA could spontaneously interact with procyanidin B2 to form protein-based complex delivery carrier. Far UV CD and FTIR data demonstrated ALA's secondary structures were altered and intrinsic fluorescence quenching suggested ALA conformation was changed with procyanidin B2. Calorimetric technique illustrated ALA-procyanidin B2 complexation was a spontaneous and exothermic process with the number of binding site (n, 3.53) and the binding constant (Kb, 2.16 × 104 M-1). A stable nano-delivery system with ALA can be formed for encapsulating, stabilizing and delivering procyanidin B2. Molecular docking study further elucidated that hydrogen bonds dominated procyanidin B2 binding to ALA in a hydrophobic pocket. This study shows great potential in using ALA as protein-based nanocarriers for oral delivery of hydrophilic nutraceuticals, because procyanidin B2-loaded ALA complex delivery systems can be spontaneously formed.

Abstract
Whey proteins are widely used as functional ingredients in various food applications owing to their emulsifying, foaming, and gelling properties. However, their functional attributes are limited in some applications because of the dependence of their performance on pH, mineral levels, and temperature. Several approaches have been investigated to enhance the functional performance of whey proteins by interacting them with polyphenols via covalent bonds (conjugates) or non-covalent bonds (complexes). The interaction of the polyphenols to the whey proteins alters their molecular characteristics, techno-functional attributes, and biological properties. Analytical methods for characterizing the properties of whey protein-polyphenol complexes and conjugates are highlighted, and a variety of potential applications within the food industry are discussed, including as antioxidants, emulsifiers, and foaming agents. Finally, areas for future research are highlighted.

Abstract
As a dietary polyphenol, kaempferol exhibits numerous biological activities such as antioxidant and anticancer properties. However, its application is limited because of its poor solubility and low permeability. This work aims to investigate the interaction of kaempferol with α-lactalbumin. Multiple-spectroscopic techniques were used to prove the interaction between kaempferol and α-lactalbumin. UV-vis absorption spectra suggested that the conformation of α-lactalbumin could be changed via binding with kaempferol. The fluorescence quenching test showed that kaempferol significantly quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of α-lactalbumin. Circular dichroism spectroscopy showed that the percent helicity of α-lactalbumin secondary structure increased when combined with kaempferol. In addition, the α-lactalbumin-kaempferol complex showed stronger inhibition ability on the growth of HeLa cells compared with kaempferol alone. The complex also showed higher antioxidant capacity than kaempferol alone. Molecular docking provided three predicted binding sites of α-lactalbumin for kaempferol, as well as five predicted binding poses of kaempferol. The weak intermolecular interactions were the main forces to stabilize the α-lactalbumin-kaempferol complex. Besides, the binding stability between α-lactalbumin and kaempferol was explored by molecular dynamics simulation. In conclusion, this work provides a basis for the potential application of α-lactalbumin as a delivery carrier for kaempferol owing to its nontoxic and biocompatible properties.

Abstract
Resveratrol and oxyresveratrol are two natural polyhydroxy trans-stilbene products. Previous studies have shown that both of them can effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase. However, little attention has been paid to study the difference of their inhibitory mechanism. To reveal this difference, in this work a comparative study on the inhibitory effects of resveratrol and oxyresveratrol against cellular tyrosinase activity and melanin content were investigated by B16F0 cells, and the inhibitory mechanism of them on tyrosinase was revealed by cell-free tyrosinase inhibition, intrinsic fluorescence spectrum, circular dichroism and molecular docking. The results showed that the inhibitory capacity of oxyresveratrol toward tyrosinase activity and melanin formation was better than that of resveratrol. The difference of their inhibitory mechanism may be closely related to the different types of inhibition, the different strength of their interaction with tyrosinase and the different number of hydrogen bonds between them. The data in this study provide a scientific basis for revealing the inhibitory mechanisms of resveratrol and oxyresveratrol toward tyrosinase, and lay an experimental foundation for further development and utilization of them.

Abstract
Numerous human conditions can benefit from diets rich in proteins and bioactives, such as capsaicin (CAP), yet their effective delivery is a sensorial, scientific and technological challenge. This study hypothesized that CAP can form various complexes with native bovine alpha-lactalbumin (holo-ALA) and decalcified-ALA (apo-ALA). Calorimetric and spectroscopic techniques reveals ALA-CAP molecular complexation is spontaneous, exothermic and accompanied by various conformational changes. ITC shows the interaction stoichiometry (n) and binding constant (Kb) for holo-ALA to be 0.87 ± 0.03, 1.54 ± 0.23 × 105 M-1 and for apo-ALA to be 0.64 ± 0.09, 9.41 ± 2.16 × 104 M-1. Molecular docking further elucidates that hydrogen bonds govern CAP binding to holo-ALA while hydrophobic interactions dominate binding to apo-ALA in a structural cleft. Finally, this work shows these interactions along with controlled aggregation can be utilized to form CAP-loaded colloids with encapsulation efficiency of 47.1 ± 1.0%. Thus, this study shows great promise in the prospective use of ALA as an edible delivery vehicle for CAP.

Abstract
Since the high incidence of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in milk and dairy products poses a serious risk to human health, this work aimed to investigate the complex formation between bovine α-lactalbumin (α-La) and AFM1 using different spectroscopic methods coupled with molecular docking studies. Fluorescence spectroscopy measurements demonstrated the AFM1 addition considerably reduced the α-La fluorescence intensity through a static quenching mechanism. The results indicated on the endothermic character of the reaction, and the hydrophobic interaction played a major role in the binding between AFM1 and α-La. The binding site stoichiometric value (n = 1.32) and a binding constant of 2.12 × 103 M-1 were calculated according to the Stern-Volmer equation. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH, ΔS and ΔGb were determined at 93.58 kJ mol-1, 0.378 kJ mol-1 K-1 and -19.17 ± 0.96 kJ mol-1, respectively. In addition, far-UV circular dichroism studies revealed alterations in the α-La secondary structures when the α-La-AFM1 complex was formed. An increased content of the α-helix structures (from 35 to 40%) and the β-sheets (from 16 to 19%) were observed. Furthermore, protein-ligand docking modelling demonstrated AFM1 could bind to the hydrophobic regions of α-La protein. Overall, the gathered results confirmed the α-La-AFM1 complex formation.

Abstract
N 6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification on eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA). Resveratrol and curcumin, which can exert many health-protective effects, may have a relationship with m6A RNA methylation. We hypothesized that the combination of resveratrol and curcumin could affect growth performance, intestinal mucosal integrity, m6A RNA methylation, and gene expression in weaning piglets. One hundred and eighty piglets weaned at 28 ± 2 days were fed a control diet or supplementary diets (300 mg/kg of antibiotics; 300 mg/kg of each resveratrol and curcumin; 100 mg/kg of each resveratrol and curcumin; 300 mg/kg of resveratrol; 300 mg/kg of curcumin) for 28 days. The results showed that the combination of resveratrol and curcumin improved growth performance and enhanced intestinal mucosal integrity and functions in weaning piglets. Resveratrol and curcumin also increased intestinal antioxidative capacity and mRNA expression of tight junction proteins. Furthermore, resveratrol and curcumin decreased the content of m6A and decreased the enrichment of m6A on the transcripts of tight junction proteins and on heme oxygenase-1 in the intestine. Our findings indicated that the combination of resveratrol and curcumin increased growth performance, enhanced intestine function, and protected piglet health, which may be associated with changes in m6A methylation and gene expression, suggesting that curcumin and resveratrol may be a potential natural alternative to antibiotics.

Curcumin and Resveratrol Regulate Intestinal Bacteria and Alleviate Intestinal Inflammation in Weaned Piglets. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24071220. [PMID: 30925757 PMCID: PMC6479679 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24071220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 56] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2019] [Revised: 03/23/2019] [Accepted: 03/27/2019] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Human infants or piglets are vulnerable to intestinal microbe-caused disorders and inflammation due to their rapidly changing gut microbiota and immaturity of their immune systems at weaning. Resveratrol and curcumin have significant anti-inflammatory, bacteria-regulating and immune-promoting effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether dietary supplementation with resveratrol and curcumin can change the intestinal microbiota and alleviate intestinal inflammation induced by weaning in piglets. One hundred eighty piglets weaned at 21 ± 2 d were fed a control diet (CON group) or supplemented diet (300 mg/kg of antibiotics, ANT group; 300 mg/kg of resveratrol and curcumin, respectively, HRC group; 100 mg/kg of resveratrol and curcumin, respectively, LRC group; 300 mg/kg of resveratrol, RES group; 300 mg/kg of curcumin, CUR group) for 28 days. The results showed that compared with the CON group, curcumin alone and antibiotics decreased the copy numbers of Escherichia coli. Both curcumin and resveratrol down-regulated the level of Toll-like-receptor 4 mRNA and protein expression in the intestine to inhibit the release of critical inflammation molecules (interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α), and increase the secretion of immunoglobulin. Our results suggested that curcumin and resveratrol can regulate weaned piglet gut microbiota, down-regulate the TLR4 signaling pathway, alleviate intestinal inflammation, and ultimately increase intestinal immune function.

Abstract
In this study, the ability of micellar casein (MC) to interact with curcumin during acidification and to produce acid gel was investigated. Steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy of curcumin variation and fluorescence quenching of caseins upon binding with curcumin molecules were evidenced. Increasing the temperature from 20 to 35 °C enhanced MC-curcumin interactions as reflected by the increase in the binding constant from 0.6 ± 0.3 × 10(4) to 6.6 ± 0.6 × 10(4) M(-1). From changes in entropy, enthalpy and Gibbs free energy, hydrophobic interactions were proposed as major binding forces. Static fluorescence MC quenching was demonstrated for the MC-curcumin complex during acidification. From pH 7.4 to pH 5.0, the binding site numbers varied in the range from 1.25 ± 0.05 to 1.49 ± 0.05 and the binding constant kb varied from 3.9 ± 0.4 × 10(4) to 7.5 ± 0.7 × 10(4) M(-1). Small angle X-ray scattering profiles demonstrated that the MC internal structure was unchanged upon curcumin binding. The ζ-potential value of curcumin-doped MC indicated that curcumin did not modify the global charge of MC particles. Acid gelation studied by oscillation rheology and static multiple light scattering at 20 and 35 °C led to a similar behavior for native and curcumin-doped MC suspensions. For the first time, it was demonstrated that the colloidal and functional properties of MC were unchanged when doped with curcumin during acidification.

Analysis of the Interaction of Dp44mT with Human Serum Albumin and Calf Thymus DNA Using Molecular Docking and Spectroscopic Techniques. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17071042.

Abstract
Di-2-pyridylketone-4,4,-dimethyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (Dp44mT) exhibits significant antitumor activity. However, the mechanism of its pharmacological interaction with human serum albumin (HSA) and DNA remains poorly understood. Here, we aimed to elucidate the interactions of Dp44mT with HSA and DNA using MTT assays, spectroscopic methods, and molecular docking analysis. Our results indicated that addition of HSA at a ratio of 1:1 did not alter the cytotoxicity of Dp44mT, but did affect the cytotoxicity of the Dp44mT-Cu complex. Data from fluorescence quenching and UV-VIS absorbance measurements demonstrated that Dp44mT could bind to HSA with a moderate affinity (Ka = approximately 104 M−1). CD spectra revealed that Dp44mT could slightly disrupt the secondary structure of HSA. Dp44mT could also interact with Ct-DNA, but had a moderate binding constant (KEB = approximately 104 M−1). Docking studies indicated that the IB site of HSA, but not the IIA and IIIA sites, could be favorable for Dp44mT and that binding of Dp44mT to HSA involved hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic force, consistent with thermodynamic results from spectral investigations. Thus, the moderate binding affinity of Dp44mT with HSA and DNA partially contributed to its antitumor activity and may be preferable in drug design approaches.
