Differentiation of PC12 cell line into neuron by Valproic acid encapsulated in the stabilized core-shell liposome-chitosan Nano carriers. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 210:252-260.

Abstract
Valproic acid (VPA) usage in high dose is teratogen with low bioavailability. Hence to improve its efficacy and reduce its side effect it was encapsulated by the Nano liposomes and stabilized by the chitosan at different concentrations. The cellular uptake, biocompatibility, loading and encapsulation efficiency of the six-different formulations (1:1, 2:1, and 4:1 of chitosan-phospholipids: VPA), PC12 differentiation to neuron cells assays (gene-expression level by qRT-PCR) were conducted for the efficacy assessment of the Nano carriers. The encapsulation efficiency (EE) results revealed that the encapsulation of the VPA corresponds to the phospholipids dose, where 2:1 formulations showed higher encapsulating rate (64.5% for non-coated and 80% for coated by chitosan). The time monitored released of VPA also showed that the chitosan could enhance its controlled release too. The cellular uptake exhibited similar uptake behavior for both the coated and the non-coated Nano carriers and cytoplasmic distribution. We witnessed no toxicity effects, at different concentrations, for both formulations. Moreover, the results indicated that the gene expression level of SOX2, NeuroD1, and Neurofilament 200 increased from 1 to 5 folds for different genes. The qRT-PCR data were confirmed by the immunofluorescence antibodies staining, where Neurofilament 68 and SOX2 cell markers were modulated during differentiation of PC12 cells. Finally, our findings suggest promising potential for the Lip-VPA-Chit Nano carrier in inducing the differentiation of PC12 into neuron for treating neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
The even growing production of both well-known and new derivatives with pharmaceutical action involves the need for developing facile and reliable methods for the analysis of these compounds. Among the widely used instrumental techniques, the electrochemical ones are probably the simplest and the most rapid, also having good performance characteristics. However, the key tool in electroanalysis is the working electrode. Due to the inherent electrochemical and economic advantages of the pencil graphite electrode (PGE), the interest in its applicability in the analysis of different analytes has continuously increased in recent years. Thus, this paper aims to review the scientific reports published in the last 10 years on the use of the disposable eco- and user-friendly PGEs in the electroanalysis of compounds of pharmaceutical importance in different matrices. The PGE characteristics and designs (bare or modified with various types of materials), along with their applications and performance parameters (e.g., linear range, limit of detection, and reproducibility), will be discussed, and their advantages and limitations will be critically emphasized.

Abstract
For the first time, a comprehensive review is presented on the quantitative determination of narrow therapeutic index drugs (NTIDs) by nano optical and electrochemical sensors and biosensors. NTIDs have a narrow index between their effective doses and those at which they produce adverse toxic effects. Therefore, accurate determination of these drugs is very important for clinicians to provide a clear judgment about drug therapy for patients. Routine analytical techniques have limitations such as being expensive, laborious, and time-consuming, and need a skilled user and therefore the nano/(bio)sensing technology leads to high interest.

Abstract
Magnetic nanomaterials (MNMs) have gained high attention in different fields of studies due to their ferromagnetic/superparamagnetic properties and their low toxicity and high biocompatibility. MNMs contain magnetic elements such as iron and nickel in metallic, bimetallic, metal oxide, and mixed metal oxide. In electroanalytical methods, MNMs have been applied as sorbents for sample preparation before the electrochemical detection (sorbent role), as the electrode modifier (catalytic role), and the integration of the above two roles (as both sorbent and catalytic agent). In this paper, the application of MNMs in electroanalytical methods have been classified based on the main role of the nanomaterial and discussed separately. Furthermore, catalytic activities of MNMs in electroanalytical methods such as redox electrocatalytic, nanozymes catalytic (peroxidase, catalase activity, oxidase activity, superoxide dismutase activity), catalyst gate, and nanocontainer have been discussed.

Abstract
Frequency of seizures is often managed by a wide group of antiepileptic drugs. Regarding the pharmacokinetic variability, narrow targeted range, and difficulty of detecting signs of toxicity based on laboratory responses, therapeutic monitoring of antiepileptic drugs can play a pivotal role in optimizing the drug dosage. Electrochemical sensors and biosensors can facilitate analysis of these drugs due to their unique advantages such as fast analysis, sensitivity, selectivity, and low cost. This review article, for the first time, describes the recent advances in electrochemical sensors and biosensors developed for the analysis of antiepileptic drugs. General electrochemical measuring techniques and types of applied electrode substrates were described first. To simplify the work, various chemical and biological modifiers applied to improve the sensitivity and selectivity of the sensors were classified and explained briefly. Finally, the future prospective on the development of electrochemical platforms in the quantification of antiepileptic drugs will be presented.

Synergistic effect of MoS 2 and diamond nanoparticles in electrochemical sensors: determination of the anticonvulsant drug valproic acid. Mikrochim Acta 2018; 185:334. [PMID: 29934854 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-018-2793-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2018] [Accepted: 04/07/2018] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The authors describe an electrochemical sensor based on the use of diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) platelets. The sensor was applied to the voltammetric determination of the anticonvulsant valproic acid which was previously derivatized with ferrocene. The MoS2 platelets were obtained by an exfoliation method, and the DNPs were directly dispersed in water and subsequently deposited on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The sensor response was optimized in terms of the solvent employed for dispersing the MoS2 nanomaterial and the method for modifying the GCE. Sensors consisting of a first layer of MoS2 dispersed in ethanol/water and a second layer of DNPs give better response. The single steps of sensor construction were characterized by atomic force microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The differential pulse voltammetric response of the GCE (measured at +0.18 V vs. Ag/AgCl) was compared to that of sensors incorporating only one of the nanomateriales (DNPs or MoS2). The formation of a hybrid MoS2-DNP structure clearly improves performance. The GCE containing both nanomaterials exhibits high sensitivity (740 µA ⋅ mM-1 ⋅ cm-2), a 0.27 μM detection limit, and an 8% reproducibility (RSD). The sensor retained 99% of its initial response after 45 days of storage. Graphical abstract Electrochemical sensor by co-immobilization of MoS2 and diamond nanoparticles (DNP). The formation of a hybrid MoS2-DNP structure enhances the performance of the sensor towards valproic acid derivatized with a ferrocene group, when compared with sensors incorporating only DNP or MoS2.

Anal Biochem 2017; 537:84-92. [PMID: 28916435 DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2017.08.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2017] [Revised: 08/25/2017] [Accepted: 08/26/2017] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
A new, low-cost electrochemical immunosensor was developed for rapid detection of Melanoma-associated antigen 1 (MAGE-1), a cancer biomarker. The fabrication procedure of immunosensor was based on the covalent immobilization of anti-MAGE-1, biorecognition molecule, on ITO electrode by carboxyethylsilanetriol (CTES) monolayer. The biosensing MAGE-1 antigen was monitored by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. Apart from these techniques, single frequency impedance (SFI) was used for investigation of antibody-antigen interactions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM) were utilized for characterization of the proposed biosensor. To fabricate highly sensitive, good stability immunosensor, some parameters were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the developed electrochemical immunosensor for MAGE-1 exhibited a dynamic range of 4 fg/mL and 200 fg/mL with a low detection limit of 1.30 fg/mL. It had acceptable repeatability (5.05%, n = 20) and good storage stability (3.58% loss after 10 weeks). Moreover, this electrochemical immunosensor has been successfully applied to the determination of MAGE-1 in human serum samples.
