Zhao X, Yang C, Liu W, Lu K, Yin H. Inhibition of insulin fibrillation by carboxyphenylboronic acid-modified chitosan oligosaccharide based on electrostatic interactions and hydrophobic interactions. Biophys Chem 2024; 310:107236. [PMID: 38615538 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpc.2024.107236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
A novel inhibitor, carboxyphenylboronic acid-modified chitosan oligosaccharide (COS-CPBA), was developed by coupling carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA) with chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) to inhibit insulin fibrillation. Extensive biophysical assays indicated that COS-CPBA could decelerate insulin aggregation, hinder the conformational transition from α-helix to β-sheet structure, change the morphology of insulin aggregates and alter fibrillation pathway. A mechanism for the inhibition of insulin fibrillation by COS-CPBA was proposed. It considers that insulin molecules bind to COS-CPBA via hydrophobic interactions, while the positively charged groups in COS-CPBA exert electrostatic repulsion on the bound insulin molecules. These two opposite forces cause the insulin molecules to display extended conformations and hinder the conformational transition of insulin from α-helix to β-sheet structure necessary for fibrillation, thus decelerating aggregation and altering the fibrillation pathway of insulin. The studies provide novel ideas for the development of more effective inhibitors of amyloid fibrillation.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic glycation and oxidation of self-proteins, causing formation and accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), have been reported in an array of pathologies, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Such modifications may generate neo-epitopes, break immunological tolerance, and induce antibody response. In this study, we have first analysed the structural modifications of whole histone in the presence of deoxyribose followed by oxidation with hydroxyl radicals. Changes in the secondary and tertiary structure of the whole histone were determined by spectroscopic techniques and biochemical assays. Fluorescence spectroscopy and UPLC-MS showed the generation of AGEs such as carboxymethyl lysine and pentosidine, while DLS and TEM indicated the presence of amorphous AGE-aggregates. Moreover, rabbits immunized with these histone-AGEs exhibited enhanced immunogenicity and ELISA and western immunoblot of IgG antibodies from SLE patients' sera showed a significantly higher specificity towards modified histone-AGEs than the native histone.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia that makes insulin more prone to glycation and form advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Here, we report the effect of glyoxal (GO) on the formation of AGEs using human insulin as model protein and their structural modifications. The present investigation also reports the anti-AGE potential of Heliotropium bacciferum (Leaf) extracts. The phytochemical analysis of H. bacciferum revealed that free phenolic extract contains higher amount of total phenolic (3901.58 ± 17.06 mg GAE/100 g) and total flavonoid content (30.41 ± 0.32 mg QE/100 g) when compared to bound phenolic extract. Naringin and caffeic acid were identified as the major phenolic ingredients by UPLC-PAD method. Furthermore, bound phenolics extract showed significantly higher DPPH and superoxide radicals scavenging activity (IC50 17.53 ± 0.36 μg/mL and 0.306 ± 0.038 mg/ mL, respectively) (p ≤ 0.05). Besides, the bound phenolics extract also showed significant (p ≤ 0.05) chelating power (IC50 0.063) compared to free phenolic extract. In addition, bound phenolic extract could efficiently trap GO under physiological conditions. Spectroscopic investigation of GO-modified insulin illustrated changes in the tertiary structure of insulin and formation of AGEs. On the other hand, no significant alteration in secondary structure was observed by far UV-CD measurement. Furthermore, H. bacciferum extract inhibited α-glucosidase activity and AGEs formation implicated in diabetes. Molecular docking analysis depicted that GO bind with human insulin in both chains and forms a stable complex with TYR A: 14, LEU A:13, ASN B:3, SER A:12 amino acid residues with binding energy of - 2.53 kcal/mol. However, caffeic acid binds to ASN A:18 and GLU A:17 residues of insulin with lower binding energy of -4.67 kcal/mol, suggesting its higher affinity towards human insulin compared to GO. Our finding showed promising activity of H. bacciferum against AGEs and its complications. The major phenolics like caffeic acid, naringin and their derivatives could be exploited for the drug development for management of AGEs in diabetes.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are produced non-enzymatically through the process of glycation. Increased AGEs production has been linked to several diseases including polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). PCOS contributes to the development of secondary comorbidities, such as diabetes, cardiovascular complications, infertility, etc. Consequently, research is going on AGEs-inhibiting phytochemicals for their potential to remediate and impede the progression of hyperglycaemia associated disorders. In this study human serum albumin is used as a model protein, as albumin is predominantly present in follicular fluid. This article focusses on the interaction and antiglycating potential of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and vitamin D in combination using various techniques. The formation of the HSA-EGCG and HSA-vitamin D complex was confirmed by UV and fluorescence spectroscopy. Thermodynamic analysis verified the spontaneity of reaction, and presence of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions. FRET confirms high possibility of energy transfer. Cumulative antiglycation resulted in almost 60 % prevention in AGEs formation, decreased alterations at lysine and arginine, and reduced protein carbonylation. Secondary and tertiary structural changes were analysed by circular dichroism, Raman spectroscopy and ANS binding assay. Type and size of aggregates were confirmed by Rayleigh and dynamic light scattering, ThT fluorescence, SEM and SDS-PAGE. Effect on cellular redox status, DNA integrity and cytotoxicity was analysed in lymphocytes using dichlorofluorescein (DCFH-DA), DAPI and MTT assay which depicted an enhancement in antioxidant level by cumulative treatment. These findings indicate that EGCG and vitamin D binds strongly to HSA and have antiglycation ability which enhances upon synergism.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) is a biological process that frequently occurs under physiological conditions. Undue oxidative stress increases the level of LPO; which may further contribute to the development of cancer. 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), one of the principal by-products of LPO, is present in high concentrations in oxidatively stressed cells. HNE rapidly reacts with various biological components, including DNA and proteins; however, the extent of protein degradation by lipid electrophiles is not well understood. The influence of HNE on protein structures will likely have a considerable therapeutic value. This research elucidates the potential of HNE, one of the most researched phospholipid peroxidation products, in modifying low-density lipoprotein (LDL). In this study, we tracked the structural alterations in LDL by HNE using various physicochemical techniques. To comprehend the stability, binding mechanism and conformational dynamics of the HNE-LDL complex, computational investigations were carried out. LDL was altered in vitro by HNE, and the secondary and tertiary structural alterations were examined using spectroscopic methods, such as UV-visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Carbonyl content, thiobarbituric acid-reactive-substance (TBARS) and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction assays were used to examine changes in the oxidation status of LDL. Thioflavin T (ThT), 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic (ANS) binding assay and electron microscopy were used to investigate aggregates formation. According to our research, LDL modified by HNE results in changes in structural dynamics, oxidative stress and the formation of LDL aggregates. The current investigation must characterize HNE's interactions with LDL and comprehend how it can change their physiological or pathological functions.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is a biocompatible nanomaterial that has an inhibitory effect on insulin amyloid fibrillation. In order to enhance the inhibitory effect of GO and explore the rules of electrostatic interactions on the inhibitory effect, carboxyl group, PEI and PEG were coupled to the GO nanoplatelet surface to prepare inhibitors of different surface electrical properties. The effects of surface electrical properties of inhibitors on insulin fibrillation were investigated. The results showed that GO, carboxyl group modified GO (GO-COOH), PEI modified GO (GO-PEI), and PEG modified GO (GO-PEG) inhibited insulin fibrillation in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with GO, positive charge-modified GO-PEI and negative charge-modified GO-COOH enhanced the inhibitory effect, while uncharged polymer-modified GO-PEG weakened the inhibitory effect. The inhibitory effect of the inhibitors increased with the increase of surface charge density. The difference in inhibitory effect between GO-PEI and GO-COOH was due to the different electrostatic interactions between inhibitors and insulin, and the different inhibition mechanisms. In addition, inhibitors mainly interact with insulin during the nucleation phase to hinder insulin fibrillation. The charge modifications of graphene oxide enhanced the inhibitory effect on insulin fibrillation based on electrostatic interactions, which will provide new thoughts for the development of anti-amyloid fibrillation drugs.

Abstract
The deleterious impact of toxic constituents of hair dyes over the human health has gained immense attention in the recent past. Their oncogenicity, mutagenicity, role in protein modification, impact on cellular metabolism has been documented. There is little information on the mechanism of reactivity of hair dye components with the nucleic acids and its implications. This work, therefore, uses computational, biophysical/biochemical, microscopic and cell-based study to analyze the interaction of monocyclic aromatic amine and a hair dye component, 4-chloro-orthophenylenediamine (4-Cl-OPD) with the DNA, its impact on DNA structure and cell survival. The results suggest that 4-Cl-OPD binds with the DNA in minor groove of the duplex involving three base pairs preferentially the G-C residues, induces strand breaks and makes DNA thermally labile through loss of hydrogen bonding/base unstacking. 4-Cl-OPD causes fragmentation of DNA, reduction in size of the molecule, alters B-DNA conformation and disrupts its secondary structure. The modified DNA gives fragmented appearance, shows broken strands and aggregation in ultra-structural analysis. 4-Cl-OPD induces ROS generation in lymphocytes, increases the comet's average tail length and reduces the viability of lymphocytes. This study forms a base for establishing the direct toxicity of 4-Cl-OPD at the molecular and cellular level through direct production of superoxide radicalCommunicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
4-Chloro-1,2-phenylenediamine (4-Cl-OPD) is a halogenated aromatic diamine used as a precursor in permanent hair color production. Despite its well-documented mutagenic and carcinogenic effects in various in vitro and in vivo models, its role in fibrillar aggregate formation and their genotoxic effect in therapeutic proteins has received less attention. The significance of human serum albumin (HSA) arises from its involvement in bio-regulatory and transport processes. HSA misfolding and aggregation are responsible for some of the most frequent neurodegenerative disorders. We used various complementary approaches to track the formation of amyloid fibrils and their genotoxic effect. Molecular dynamics study demonstrated the complex stability. The impact of 4-Cl-OPD on the structural dynamics of HSA was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, HPLC and SDS-PAGE. Fibrilllar aggregates were investigated using Congo red assay, DLS, and SEM. The genotoxic nature of 4-Cl-OPD was confirmed using plasmid nicking assay and DAPI staining, which revealed DNA damage and cell apoptosis. 4-Cl-OPD provides a model system for studying fibrillar aggregation and their genotoxic potential in the current investigation. Future studies should investigate the inhibition of the aggregation/fibrillation process, which may yield valuable clinical insights.

Abstract
Dietary components have an important role on the structure and function of host gut microbial communities. Even though, various dietary components, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, fibers, and vitamins, have been studied in depth for their effect on gut microbiomes, little attention has been paid regarding the impact of several food antioxidants on the gut microbiome. The long-term exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause microbial dysbiosis which leads to numerous intestinal diseases such as microbiota dysbiosis, intestinal injury, colorectal cancers, enteric infections, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Recently, it has been shown that the food derived antioxidant compounds might protect the host from intestinal oxidative stress via modulating the composition of beneficial microbial species in the gut. The present review summarizes the impact of food antioxidants including antioxidant vitamins, dietary polyphenols, carotenoids, and bioactive peptides on the structure as well as function of host gut microbial communities. Several in vitro, animal model, and clinical studies indicates that food antioxidants might modify the host gut microbial communities and their health status. However, still further clarification is needed as to whether changes in certain microbial species caused by food additives may lead to changes in metabolism and immune function.

Abstract
As a popular marine saccharide, chitooligosaccharides (COS) has been proven to have good antioxidant activity. Its antioxidant effect is closely related to its degree of polymerization, degree of acetylation and sequence. However, the specific structure-activity relationship remains unclear. In this study, three chitosan dimers with different sequences were obtained by the separation and enzymatic method, and the antioxidant activity of all four chitosan dimers were studied. The effect of COS sequence on its antioxidant activity was revealed for the first time. The amino group at the reducing end plays a vital role in scavenging superoxide radicals and in the reducing power of the chitosan dimer. At the same time, we found that the fully deacetylated chitosan dimer DD showed the strongest DPPH scavenging activity. When the amino groups of the chitosan dimer were acetylated, it showed better activity in scavenging hydroxyl radicals. Research on COS sequences opens up a new path for the study of COS, and is more conducive to the investigation of its mechanism.
