C 60 fullerene attenuates muscle force reduction in a rat during fatigue development. Heliyon 2022; 8:e12449. [PMID: 36590525 PMCID: PMC9801117 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e12449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
C60 fullerene (C60) as a nanocarbon particle, compatible with biological structures, capable of penetrating through cell membranes and effectively scavenging free radicals, is widely used in biomedicine. A protective effect of C60 on the biomechanics of fast (m. gastrocnemius) and slow (m. soleus) muscle contraction in rats and the pro- and antioxidant balance of muscle tissue during the development of muscle fatigue was studied compared to the same effect of the known antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC). C60 and NAC were administered intraperitoneally at doses of 1 and 150 mg kg-1, respectively, daily for 5 days and 1 h before the start of the experiment. The following quantitative markers of muscle fatigue were used: the force of muscle contraction, the level of accumulation of secondary products of lipid peroxidation (TBARS) and the oxygen metabolite H2O2, the activity of first-line antioxidant defense enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)), and the condition of the glutathione system (reduced glutathione (GSH) content and the activity of the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme). The analysis of the muscle contraction force dynamics in rats against the background of induced muscle fatigue showed, that the effect of C60, 1 h after drug administration, was (15-17)% more effective on fast muscles than on slow muscles. A further slight increase in the effect of C60 was revealed after 2 h of drug injection, (7-9)% in the case of m. gastrocnemius and (5-6)% in the case of m. soleus. An increase in the effect of using C60 occurred within 4 days (the difference between 4 and 5 days did not exceed (3-5)%) and exceeded the effect of NAC by (32-34)%. The analysis of biochemical parameters in rat muscle tissues showed that long-term application of C60 contributed to their decrease by (10-30)% and (5-20)% in fast and slow muscles, respectively, on the 5th day of the experiment. At the same time, the protective effect of C60 was higher compared to NAC by (28-44)%. The obtained results indicate the prospect of using C60 as a potential protective nano agent to improve the efficiency of skeletal muscle function by modifying the reactive oxygen species-dependent mechanisms that play an important role in the processes of muscle fatigue development.

Abstract
There is a range of experimental proofs that biologically relevant compounds change their activity in the presence of C60 fullerene clusters in aqueous solution, which most frequently act as a nanoplatform for drug delivery. Inspired by this evidence, we made an effort to investigate the interaction of fullerene clusters with the antibiotic topotecan (TPT). This study proceeded in three steps, namely, UV/vis titration to confirm complexation and in vitro assays on proliferating and nonproliferating cells to elucidate the role of C60 fullerene in the putative change in TPT activity. Surprisingly, although the nonproliferating cell assay is consistent with the titration data and confirms complex formation, it contradicted the results of the proliferating cell assay. The latter showed that the mixture of TPT and fullerene affects the cells in the same way as pure TPT, as if there were no fullerenes in solution at all, whereas the action of TPT was expected to be enhanced. We explained this contradiction by the specific stabilization of the biologically inactive carboxylate form of the antibiotic adsorbed in the alkaline shell of large fullerene clusters, which leads to neutralization of the drug delivery function and almost zero net biological effect of the antibiotic in vitro. The practical outcome of the work is that fullerene clusters can be used for the selective delivery of pH-sensitive drug forms.

Abstract
A new water-soluble thermosensitive star-like copolymer, dextran-graft-poly-N-iso-propilacrylamide (D-g-PNIPAM), was created and characterized by various techniques (size-exclusion chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering (DLS) spectroscopy). The viability of cancer cell lines (human transformed cervix epithelial cells, HeLa) as a model for cancer cells was studied using MTT and Live/Dead assays after incubation with a D-g-PNIPAM copolymer as a carrier for the drug doxorubicin (Dox) as well as a D-g-PNIPAM + Dox mixture as a function of the concentration. FTIR spectroscopy clearly indicated the complex formation of Dox with the D-g-PNIPAM copolymer. The size distribution of particles in Hank’s solution was determined by the DLS technique at different temperatures. The in vitro uptake of the studied D-g-PNIPAM + Dox nanoparticles into cancer cells was demonstrated by confocal laser scanning microscopy. It was found that D-g-PNIPAM + Dox nanoparticles in contrast to Dox alone showed higher toxicity toward cancer cells. All of the aforementioned facts indicate a possibility of further preclinical studies of the water-soluble D-g-PNIPAM particles’ behavior in animal tumor models in vivo as promising carriers of anticancer agents.

Abstract
Water-soluble fullerene derivatives are actively investigated as potential drugs for cancer treatment due to their favorable membranotropic properties. Herein, cytotoxic effects of twenty fullerene derivatives with different solubilizing addends were evaluated in three different types of non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The potential structural descriptors of the solubilizing addends related to the inhibitory activities on each type of lung cancer cell were investigated by the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) approach. The determination coefficient r2 for the recommended QSAR model were 0.9325, 0.8404, and 0.9011 for A549, H460, and H1299 cell lines, respectively. The results revealed that the chemical features of the fullerene-based compounds including aromatic bonds, sulfur-containing aromatic rings, and oxygen atoms are favored properties and promote the inhibitory effects on H460 and H1299 cells. Particularly, thiophene moiety is the key functional group, which was positively correlated with strong inhibitory effects on the three types of lung cancer cells. The useful information obtained from our regression models may lead to the design of more efficient inhibitors of the three types of NSCLC.

Abstract
Background: C60 fullerenes and their derivatives are actively investigated for the use in neuroscience. Applications of these nanoscale materials require the examination of their interaction with different neural cells, especially with microglia, because these cells, like other tissue resident phagocytes, are the earliest and most sensitive responders to nanoparticles. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of C60 fullerene and its nanocomplex with doxorubicin (Dox) on the metabolic profile of brain-resident phagocytes-microglia-in vitro. Methods: Resting microglial cells from adult male Wistar rats were used in experiments. Potential C60 fullerene targets in microglial cells were studied by computer simulation. Microglia oxidative metabolism and phagocytic activity were examined by flow cytometry. Griess reaction and arginase activity colorimetric assay were used to explore arginine metabolism. Results: C60 fullerene when used alone did not influence microglia oxidative metabolism and phagocytic activity but shifted arginine metabolism toward the decrease of NO generation. Complexation of C60 fullerene with Dox (C60-Dox) potentiated the ability of the latter to stimulate NO generation. Conclusion: The capability of C60 fullerenes used alone to cause anti-inflammatory shift of microglia arginine metabolism makes them a promising agent for the correction of neuroinflammatory processes involved in neurodegeneration. The potentiating action of C60 fullerene on the immunomodulatory effect of Dox allows us to consider the C60 molecule as an attractive vehicle for this antitumor agent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A significant role in pathogenesis of cholangitis is attributed to excessive reactive oxygen species production and oxidative stress. Therefore, antioxidants could be promising therapeutics. AIMS The effects of powerful free radical scavenger C60 fullerene on hepatic and pancreatic manifestations of acute and chronic cholangitis in rats were aimed to be discovered. METHODS Acute (AC, 3 days) and chronic (CC, 28 days) cholangitis models were simulated by single (AC) and 4 weekly (CC) α-naphthylisothiocyanate per os administrations. Pristine C60 fullerene aqueous colloid solution (C60FAS, 0.15 mg/ml, size of aggregates 1.2-100 nm) was administered either per os or intraperitoneally at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg C60 fullerene daily (AC) and every other day (CC). Prednisolone was used as a reference. Liver and pancreas autopsies were analyzed, and blood serum biochemical markers were measured. Pan-cytokeratin expression in HepG2 cells was assessed after 48-h incubation with C60FAS. RESULTS On AC, C60FAS normalized elevated bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, and triglycerides, diminished fibrotic alterations in liver, and improved pancreas state when applied by both ways. Additionally, C60FAS per os significantly reduced the signs of inflammation in liver and pancreas. On CC, C60FAS also mitigated liver fibrosis and inflammation, improved pancreas state, and normalized alkaline phosphatase and triglycerides. The remedy effect of C60FAS was more expressed compared to that of prednisolone on both models. Furthermore, C60FAS inhibited pan-cytokeratin expression in HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION Pristine C60 fullerene inhibits liver inflammation and fibrogenesis and partially improved liver and pancreas state under acute and chronic cholangitis.

Abstract
A herbal alkaloid Berberine (Ber), used for centuries in Ayurvedic, Chinese, Middle-Eastern, and native American folk medicines, is nowadays proved to function as a safe anticancer agent. Yet, its poor water solubility, stability, and bioavailability hinder clinical application. In this study, we have explored a nanosized carbon nanoparticle-C60 fullerene (C60)-for optimized Ber delivery into leukemic cells. Water dispersions of noncovalent C60-Ber nanocomplexes in the 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1 molar ratios were prepared. UV-Vis spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) evidenced a complexation of the Ber cation with the negatively charged C60 molecule. The computer simulation showed that π-stacking dominates in Ber and C60 binding in an aqueous solution. Complexation with C60 was found to promote Ber intracellular uptake. By increasing C60 concentration, the C60-Ber nanocomplexes exhibited higher antiproliferative potential towards CCRF-CEM cells, in accordance with the following order: free Ber < 1:2 < 1:1 < 2:1 (the most toxic). The activation of caspase 3/7 and accumulation in the sub-G1 phase of CCRF-CEM cells treated with C60-Ber nanocomplexes evidenced apoptosis induction. Thus, this study indicates that the fast and easy noncovalent complexation of alkaloid Ber with C60 improved its in vitro efficiency against cancer cells.

Abstract
Cisplatin (Cis-Pt) is the cytotoxic agent widely used against tumors of various origin, but its therapeutic efficiency is substantially limited by a non-selective effect and high toxicity. Conjugation of Cis-Pt with nanocarriers is thought to be one option to enable drug targeting. The aim of this study was to estimate toxic effects of the nanocomplex formed by noncovalent interaction of C60 fullerene with Cis-Pt against Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells in comparison with free drug. Scanning tunneling microscopy showed that the minimum size of C60-Cis-Pt nanoparticles in aqueous colloid solution was 1.1 nm whereas that of C60 fullerene was 0.72 nm, thus confirming formation of the nanocomplex. The cytotoxic effect of C60-Cis-Pt nanocomplex against LLC cells was shown to be higher with IC50 values 3.3 and 4.5 times lower at 48 h and 72 h, respectively, as compared to the free drug. 12.5 µM Cis-Pt had no effect on LLC cell viability and morphology while C60-Cis-Pt nanocomplex in Cis-Pt-equivalent concentration substantially decreased the cell viability, impaired their shape and adhesion, inhibited migration and induced accumulation in proapoptotic subG1 phase. Apoptosis induced by the C60-Cis-Pt nanocomplex was confirmed by caspase 3/7 activation and externalization of phosphatidylserine on the outer surface of LLC cells with the double Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. We assume that C60 fullerene as a component of the C60-Cis-Pt nanocomplex promoted Cis-Pt entry and intracellular accumulation thus contributing to intensification of the drug's toxic effect against lung cancer cells.

Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this research was to study the impact of various doxorubicin (Dox)-containing nanofluids, e.g. singlewalled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)+Dox, graphene oxide (GO)+Dox and DextranPNIPAM (copolymer)+Dox mixtures on HeLa cells (human transformed cervix epithelial cells, as a model for cancer cells) depending on their concentration. Methods: Structural analysis of GO+Dox complex was accomplished using Hartree-Fock level of theory in 6-31G** basis set in Gaussian. Dynamic light scattering (DLS), zeta-potential, scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used. The cell viability was analyzed by the MTT assay. Results: The viability of HeLa cells was studied with the MTT assay after the incubation with various Dox-containing dispersions depending on their concentration. The size of the particles was determined by DLS. The morphology of the nanoparticles (NPs) was studied by scanning electron microscopy and their uptake into cells was visualized by confocal laser scanning microscopy. It was found that the Dextran-PNIPAM+Dox nanofluid in contrast to Dox alone showed higher toxicity towards HeLa cells up to 80% after 24 hours of incubation, whereas the SWCNT+Dox and GO+Dox nanofluids at the same concentrations protected cells from Dox. Conclusion: The importance of Dextran-PNIPAM copolymer as a universal platform for drug delivery was established, and the huge potential of Dextran-PNIPAM+Dox NPs as novel anticancer agents was noted. Based on the in vitro study of the SWCNT+Dox and GO+Dox nanofluids, it was concluded that SWCNT and GO NPs can be effective cytoprotectors against the highly toxic drugs.

A Novel Nanoconjugate of Landomycin A with C 60 Fullerene for Cancer Targeted Therapy: In Vitro Studies. Cell Mol Bioeng 2018; 12:41-51.

Abstract
Introduction Landomycins are a subgroup of angucycline antibiotics that are produced by Streptomyces bacteria and possess strong antineoplastic potential. Literature data suggest that enhancement of the therapeutic activity of this drug may be achieved by means of creating specific drug delivery systems. Here we propose to adopt C60 fullerene as flexible and stable nanocarrier for landomycin delivery into tumor cells. Methods The methods of molecular modelling, dynamic light scattering and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to study the assembly of C60 fullerene and the anticancer drug Landomycin A (LA) in aqueous solution. Cytotoxic activity of this nanocomplex was studied in vitro towards two cancer cell lines in comparison to human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) test and a live/dead assay. The morphology of the cells incubated with fullerene-drug nanoparticles and their uptake into target cells were studied by scanning electron microscopy and fluorescence light microscopy. Results The viability of primary cells (hMSCs, as a model for healthy cells) and cancer cell lines (human osteosarcoma cells, MG-63, and mouse mammary cells, 4T1, as models for cancer cells) was studied after incubation with water-soluble C60 fullerenes, LA and the mixture C60 + LA. The C60 + LA nanocomplex in contrast to LA alone showed higher toxicity towards cancer cells and lower toxicity towards normal cells, whereas the water-soluble C60 fullerenes at the same concentration were not toxic for the cells. Conclusions The obtained physico-chemical data indicate a complexation between the two compounds, leading to the formation of a C60 + LA nanocomposite. It was concluded that immobilization of LA on C60 fullerene enhances selectivity of action of this anticancer drug in vitro, indicating on possibility of further preclinical studies of novel C60 + LA nanocomposites on animal tumor models.

Abstract
C60 fullerene is reported to directly interact with biomolecules, such as aromatic mutagens or anticancer drugs. Therefore, it is extensively studied for its potential application in the fields of drug delivery and chemoprevention. Understanding the nature of fullerene-drugs interactions might contribute to optimization and modification of the existing chemotherapy systems. Possible interactions between ICR-191, a model acridine mutagen, with well-established biophysical properties and mutagenic activity, and C60 fullerene aqueous solution were investigated by broad range of biophysical methods, such as Dynamic Light Scattering, Isothermal Titration Calorimetry, and Atomic Force Microscopy. Additionally, to determine biological activity of ICR-191-C60 fullerene mixtures, Ames mutagenicity test was employed. It was demonstrated that C60 fullerene interacts non-covalently with ICR-191 and has strong affinity to bacterial membranes. The obtained results provide practical insight into C60 fullerene interactions with aromatic compounds.

Abstract
[60]Fullerene is a highly versatile nanoparticle (NP) platform for drug delivery to sites of pathology owing to its small size and both ease and versatility of chemical functionalization, facilitating multisite drug conjugation, drug targeting, and modulation of its physicochemical properties. The prominent and well-characterized role of the enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect in facilitating NP delivery to tumors motivated us to explore vascular transport kinetics of a water-soluble [60]fullerene derivatives using intravital microscopy in an immune competent murine model of breast adenocarcinoma. Herein, we present a novel local and global image analysis of vascular transport kinetics at the level of individual tumor blood vessels on the micron scale and across whole images, respectively. Similar to larger nanomaterials, [60]fullerenes displayed rapid extravasation from tumor vasculature, distinct from that in normal microvasculature. Temporal heterogeneity in fullerene delivery to tumors was observed, demonstrating the issue of nonuniform delivery beyond spatial dimensions. Trends in local region analysis of fullerene biokinetics by fluorescence quantification were in agreement with global image analysis. Further analysis of intratumoral vascular clearance rates suggested a possible enhanced penetration and retention effect of the fullerene compared to a 70 kDa vascular tracer. Overall, this study demonstrates the feasibility of tracking and quantifying the delivery kinetics and intratumoral biodistribution of fullerene-based drug delivery platforms, consistent with the EPR effect on short timescales and passive transport to tumors.

Abstract
A large number of previous works reveal that there exist strong connections between the chemical characteristics of chemical compounds and drugs (e.g., melting point and boiling point) and their topological structures. Chemical indices introduced on these molecular topological structures can help chemists and material and medical scientists to grasp its chemical reactivity, biological activity, and physical features better. Hence, the study of the topological indices on the material structure can make up the defect of experiments and provide the theoretical evidence in material engineering. In this paper, we determine the reverse eccentric connectivity index of one family of pentagonal carbon nanoconesPCN5[n]and three infinite families of fullerenesC12n+2, C12n+4, andC18n+10based on graph analysis and computation derivation, and these results can offer the theoretical basis for material properties.
