[PMID: 38460447 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2024.124070] [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: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/11/2024]
Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is known to undergo modifications by glucose during diabetes. This process produces glycated HSA that can have altered binding to some drugs. In this study, high-performance affinity microcolumns and competition studies were used to see how glycation affects the binding by two thiazolidinedione-class drugs (i.e., pioglitazone and rosiglitazone) at specific regions of HSA. These regions included Sudlow sites I and II, the tamoxifen and digitoxin sites, and a drug-binding site located in subdomain IB. At Sudlow site II, the association equilibrium constants (or binding constants) for pioglitazone and rosiglitazone with normal HSA were 1.7 × 105 M-1 and 2.0 × 105 M-1 at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, with values that changed by up to 5.7-fold for glycated HSA. Sudlow site I of normal HSA had binding constants for pioglitazone and rosiglitazone of 3.4 × 105 M-1 and 4.6 × 105 M-1, with these values changing by up to 1.5-fold for glycated HSA. Rosiglitazone was found to also bind a second region that had a positive allosteric effect on Sudlow site I for all the tested preparations of HSA (binding affinity, 1.1-3.2 × 105 M-1; coupling constant for Sudlow site I, 1.20-1.34). Both drugs had a strong positive allosteric effect on the tamoxifen site of HSA (coupling constants, 13.7-19.9 for pioglitazone and 3.7-11.5 for rosiglitazone). Rosiglitazone also had weak interactions at a site in subdomain IB, with a binding constant of 1.4 × 103 M-1 for normal HSA and a value that was altered by up to 6.8-fold with glycated HSA. Neither of the tested drugs had any significant binding at the digitoxin site. The results were used to produce affinity maps that described binding by these thiazolidinediones with HSA and the effects of glycation on these interactions during diabetes.

Abstract
Proteins are the material basis of life and the primary carriers of life activities, containing various impurities that must be removed before use. To keep pace with the increasing complexity of protein samples, it is essential to constantly work on developing new purification technologies for downstream processes. While traditional downstream purification methods rely heavily on protein A affinity chromatography, there is still a lot of interest in finding safer and more cost-effective alternatives to protein A. Many non-affinity ligands and technologies have also been developed in biological purification recently. Here, the current status of biotechnology and the progress of protein separation technology from 2018 to 2023 are reviewed from the aspects of new preparation methods and new composite materials of commonly used separation media. The research status of new ligands with different mechanisms of action was reviewed, including the expanded application of affinity ligands, the development prospect of biotechnology such as polymer grafting, continuous column technology, and its new applications.

Abstract
Modification of proteins can occur during diabetes due to the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) with reactive dicarbonyls such as glyoxal (Go) and methylglyoxal (MGo). Human serum albumin (HSA) is a serum protein that binds to many drugs in blood and that is known to be modified by Go and MGo. This study examined the binding of various sulfonylurea drugs with these modified forms of HSA by using high-performance affinity microcolumns prepared by non-covalent protein entrapment. Zonal elution experiments were employed to compare the retention and overall binding constants for the drugs with Go- or MGo-modified HSA vs normal HSA. The results were compared to values from the literature, such as measured or estimated using affinity columns containing covalently immobilized HSA or biospecifically-adsorbed HSA. The entrapment-based approach provided estimates of global affinity constants within 3-5 min for most of the tested drugs and with typical precisions of ±10-23%. Each entrapped protein microcolumn was stable for over at least 60-70 injections and one month of use. The results obtained with normal HSA agreed at the 95% confidence level with global affinity constants that have been reported for the given drugs in the literature. It was found for HSA that had been modified with clinically-relevant levels of either Go or MGo that an increase in the global affinity constant of up to 2.1-fold occurred for some of the tested drugs. The information acquired in this study can be used in the future to adapt this entrapment-based approach to study and evaluate interactions between other types of drugs and normal or modified binding agents for clinical testing and biomedical research.

Abstract
Reversible interactions between drugs and humic acid in water can be an important factor in determining the bioavailability and effects of these pharmaceuticals as micropollutants in the environment. In this study, microcolumns containing entrapped humic acid were used in high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) to examine the binding of this agent with the drugs tetracycline, carbamazepine, ciprofloxacin, and norfloxacin. Parameters that were varied to optimize the entrapment of humic acid within HPLC-grade porous silica included the starting concentration of humic acid, the mass ratio of humic acid vs silica, and the method of mixing the reagents with the support for the entrapment process. The highest retention for the tested drugs was obtained when using supports that were prepared using an initial humic acid concentration of 80 mg mL-1 and a humic acid vs silica mass ratio of 600 mg per g silica, along with preincubation of the humic acid with hydrazide-activated silica before the addition of a capping agent (i.e., oxidized glycogen). Characterization of the humic acid support was also carried out by means of TGA, FTIR, SEM, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The binding constants measured by HPAC for the given drugs with entrapped Aldrich humic acid gave good agreement with values reported in the literature under similar pH and temperature conditions for this and other forms of humic acid. Besides providing valuable data on the binding strength of various drugs with humic acid, this work illustrates how HPAC may be used as an analytical tool for screening and characterizing the interactions of drugs and man-made contaminants with humic acid or related binding agents in water and the environment.

Abstract
Ultrafast affinity extraction (UAE) and affinity microcolumns containing immobilized human serum albumin (HSA) were employed to evaluate the effect of advanced stage glycation on HSA and its binding to warfarin, a common site-specific probe for Sudlow site I of this protein. The modification of HSA by glyoxal (GO) and methylglyoxal (MGO) was considered, where GO and MGO are known to be important in the formation of many types of advanced glycation end products. Free drug fractions were measured by UAE for warfarin in solutions containing normal HSA or HSA that had been modified by GO or MGO at levels seen in serum during diabetes. The free fractions measured with the GO-modified HSA gave association equilibrium constants that ranged from 2.42-2.63 × 105 M-1 at pH 7.4 and 37 °C. These values were not significantly different from a value of 2.33 (±0.15) × 105 M-1 that was determined by the same method for warfarin with normal HSA. Similar studies using MGO-modified HSA gave association equilibrium constants for warfarin in the range of 3.07-3.31 × 105 M-1, which were 1.32- to 1.42-fold higher than the value seen for normal HSA (differences that were significant at the 95% confidence level). These results will be valuable in future binding studies based on affinity chromatography or other methods that employ warfarin as a probe to examine drug interactions at Sudlow site I of HSA and modified forms of this protein. This work also illustrates how UAE can be used, with analysis times of only minutes, to detect and measure small changes in the binding by drugs with unmodified or modified forms of a soluble binding agent or protein.

Early potential evaluation of lead compounds from a DNA-encoded library by the determination of their thermodynamics through a chromatographic method based on immobilized β 2-adrenoceptor. Bioorg Med Chem 2022; 68:116864. [PMID: 35671625 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2022.116864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Early potential evaluation of lead compounds is critical to decrease downstream lead-optimization cycle times and clinical attrition rates for drug development. This increasingly necessitates the methodologies for accurately evaluating the potential compounds. This work immobilized β2-adrenoceptor (β2-AR) onto microspheres through Halo-tag mediated reaction. Characterizing the resulting microspheres by elemental and functional analysis, we utilized the immobilized receptor to determine the thermodynamics of terbutaline, tulobuterol, clorprenaline, salbutamol, and methoxyphenamine. The association constants correlated to their capacity factors on the column containing the immobilized β2-AR, thus providing a possibility for early potential evaluation of lead compounds from complex matrices like a DNA-encoded library. By this model, the lead compound (XC267) was predicted to have an association constant higher than terbutaline, salbutamol, and methoxyphenamine, but lower than tulobuterol and clorprenaline. The binding interaction between XC267 and β2-AR is a spontaneous endothermic process with an association constant of (6.62 ± 0.13) × 104 M-1 at 37 °C. The change of Gibbs free energy(ΔGθ), enthalpy change (ΔHθ), and entropy change (ΔSθ) was -28.49 kJ/mol, -10.58 kJ/mol, and 57.79 J/moL·K at 37 °C. By the semi-empirical rule of Ross, the driving force of the interaction between XC267 and β2-AR was electrostatic interaction. Such binding force was also achieved by molecular docking. These results suggested that XC267 is a candidate to treat asthma by specific binding to β2-AR. We reasoned that receptor chromatography is able to the early potential evaluation of lead compounds from complex matrices.

Abstract
Entrapment is a noncovalent immobilization method that enables a large biological binding agent, such as a protein, to be put within a support without modifying the structure of the binding agent. This chapter describes an on-column entrapment method that can be used with proteins and HPLC-grade silica to prepare columns for high-performance liquid chromatography. In this method, a protein is trapped within a dihydrazide-activated silica support by using oxidized glycogen as a capping agent. This method allows the protein to be placed within the support in a soluble form and with little or no loss of activity. The approach and reagents needed for this method are described in this chapter, along with some applications reported for columns that have been made using on-column protein entrapment.

Abstract
After entering human blood circulation, small-molecule drugs interact extensively with various plasma proteins, such as human serum albumin and α1-acid glycoprotein. These interactions profoundly affect the distribution of drugs in vivo and the binding of drugs to targets, thus affecting the efficacy of drugs. In-depth investigation of drug-plasma protein interactions is of great significance for the optimization of drug properties, the development of new drugs, risk assessment, and combination therapy of drugs. Therefore, it is essential to develop highly efficient, sensitive, and accurate methods for elucidating drug-plasma protein interactions. Chromatography is a powerful tool with high throughput, high separation performance, and high sensitivity in the characterization of drug-protein interactions. High-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) have been widely utilized in this field. These methods include the determination of the effects of the posttranslational modification of proteins on binding and the competitive binding of multiple drugs. In addition, various chromatographic methods are used to obtain interaction information such as the binding constant, binding-site number, and dissociation rate constant. In this review, the common strategies and recent advances in HPAC and CE in the study of drug-plasma protein interactions are briefly reviewed. The immobilization methods of proteins, the principles and applications of frontal analysis, zonal elution, ultrafast affinity extraction, peak profiling, and peak decay analysis are discussed for HPAC and affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) and capillary electrophoresis frontal analysis (CE-FA) for CE. HPAC relies on the fixation of proteins on the surfaces of chromatographic stationary phases by covalent linking or physical adsorption, followed by obtaining the drug-protein interaction information through a variety of chromatographic methods. In the frontal chromatography analysis, mobile phases with different concentrations of drugs are passed through the HPAC column to obtain different breakthrough times. The process can determine the number of drug binding sites and the binding constant of each site in the affinity protein with high accuracy. The zonal elution method can detect the drug binding sites on proteins using site-specific probes to determine whether there is competition between drugs and probes. The sample consumption and analysis time of the zonal elution method are much less than those in frontal chromatography analysis. The ultrafast affinity extraction method can inject complex samples, such as serum, into affinity columns to determine the free drug components. It can measure the combination and dissociation constants of drug-protein interactions by changing the chromatography flow rate. Peak profiling and peak decay analyses are both effective methods for investigating the dissociation of drugs and proteins. In CE analysis, the drug and protein samples are dissolved in an electrophoresis buffer, and their interactions are measured during electrophoresis with high accuracy and low sample consumption. However, the adsorption of proteins on the capillary wall can compromise CE performance. Common CE methods in drug-protein interaction analysis are ACE and CE-FA. ACE is usually performed by changing the effective mobility of drugs via the addition of different concentrations of proteins. This method has been widely used, and several variant techniques have been developed recently. CE-FA involves the sampling of a drug premixed at a known concentration with a target protein. Compared with other CE methods, CE-FA exhibits the unique advantages of high throughput, automatic online analysis, and the ability to determine high-order drug-protein interactions. Finally, the shortcomings of current chromatography methods are summarized, and the application prospects and development direction of chromatography technology in the field of drug-plasma protein interaction research are discussed.

Abstract
Screening bioactive compounds from traditional Chinese medicines plays pivotal role in preventing and curing diseases. Sanzi Yangqin Decoction (SYD) is a commonly used prescription for the treatment of cough, asthma and some other respiratory diseases for hundreds of years in practice. This reminds us that there may exist some bioactive compounds strongly binding with the recognized receptors mediating these diseases like β2-adrenegic receptor (β2-AR). Therefore, this work intends to screen bioactive compounds from SYD and revealed the binding mechanism by immobilized β2-AR chromatography and molecular docking. Taking advantages of a 3-high based enzymatic trans-methylation reaction (high speed, high specificity and high activity), the immobilization of β2-AR was successfully achieved. Representative chromatographic peaks of SYD on the immobilized β2-AR column was collected and recognized as rosmarinic acid and sinapine thiocyanate. Tension changes of the trachea ring showed that the two compounds were in a concentration-dependent manner when exerting their effects and the concentration ranges were 10-9-10-4 mol/L and 10-12-10-7 mol/L, respectively. Molecular docking revealed Ser203, Ser204, Ser207, Tyr316 and Asn312 were the main residues for the two compounds to bind with β2-AR. We concluded that the proposed method is becoming an alternative in rapid recognizing bioactive compounds from complex matrix.

Abstract
Protein-surface interactions are exploited in various processes in life sciences and biotechnology. Many of such processes are performed in presence of a buffer system, which is generally believed to have an influence on the protein-surface interaction but is rarely investigated systematically. Combining experimental and theoretical methodologies, we herein demonstrate the strong influence of the buffer type on protein-surface interactions. Using state of the art chromatographic experiments, we measure the interaction between individual amino acids and silica, as a reference to understand protein-surface interactions. Among all the 20 proteinogenic amino acids studied, we found that arginine (R) and lysine (K) bind most strongly to silica, a finding validated by free energy calculations. We further measured the binding of R and K at different pH in presence of two different buffers, MOPS (3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid) and TRIS (tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane), and find dramatically different behavior. In presence of TRIS, the binding affinity of R/K increases with pH, whereas we observe an opposite trend for MOPS. These results can be understood using a multiscale modelling framework combining molecular dynamics simulation and Langmuir adsorption model. The modelling approach helps to optimize buffer conditions in various fields like biosensors, drug delivery or bio separation engineering prior to the experiment.

Abstract
Protein, as the material basis of vita, is the crucial undertaker of life activities, which constitutes the framework and main substance of human tissues and organs, and takes part in various forms of life activities in organisms. Separating proteins from biomaterials and studying their structures and functions are of great significance for understanding the law of life activities and clarifying the essence of life phenomena. Therefore, scientists have proposed the new concept of proteomics, in which protein separation technology plays a momentous role. It has been diffusely used in the food industry, agricultural biological research, drug development, disease mechanism, plant stress mechanism, and marine environment research. In this paper, combined with the recent research situation, the progress of protein separation technology was reviewed from the aspects of extraction, precipitation, membrane separation, chromatography, electrophoresis, molecular imprinting, microfluidic chip and so on.

Abstract
Ligand-target interactions play a central role in drug discovery processes because these interactions are crucial in biological systems. Small molecules-proteins interactions can regulate and modulate protein function and activity through conformational changes. Therefore, bioanalytical tools to screen new ligands have focused mainly on probing ligand-target interactions. These interactions have been evaluated by using solid-supported proteins, which provide advantages like increased protein stability and easier protein extraction from the reaction medium, which enables protein reuse. In some specific approaches, precisely in the ligand fishing assay, the bioanalytical method allows the ligands to be directly isolated from complex mixtures, including combinatorial libraries and natural products extracts without prior purification or fractionation steps. Most of these screening assays are based on liquid chromatography separation, and the binding events can be monitored through on-line or off-line methods. In the on-line approaches, solid supports containing the immobilized biological target are used as chromatographic columns most of the time. Several terms have been used to refer to such approaches, such as weak affinity chromatography, high-performance affinity chromatography, on-flow activity assays, and high-performance liquid affinity chromatography. On the other hand, in the off-line approaches, the binding event occurs outside the liquid chromatography system and may encompass affinity and activity-based assays in which the biological target is immobilized on magnetic particles or monolithic silica, among others. After the incubation step, the supernatant or the eluate from the binding assay is analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled to various detectors. Regardless of the selected bioanalytical approach, the use of solid supported proteins has significantly contributed to the development of automated and reliable screening methods that enable ligands to be isolated and characterized in complex matrixes without purification, thereby reducing costs and avoiding time-laborious steps. This review provides a critical overview of recently developed assays.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea drugs are antidiabetic drugs that are utilized in the treatment of type II diabetes and often have significant binding with human serum albumin (HSA). Immobilized samples of normal or glycated HSA in affinity microcolumns were used to investigate interactions of these proteins with the sulfonylurea drug tolazamide. HPLC and frontal analysis were used to first examine the overall binding of this drug with these samples of HSA. It was found that tolazamide had two general classes of binding sites (i.e., high and low affinity) for normal and glycated HSA. The higher affinity sites had binding constants of around 4.3-6.0 × 104 M-1 for these interactions at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, while the lower affinity sites had binding strengths of 4.9-9.1 × 103 M-1. Zonal competition studies between tolazamide and probes for Sudlow sites I and II on HSA were also performed and used to provide site-specific affinities for tolazamide at these sites. A decrease of 22% in affinity was observed for tolazamide at Sudlow site I and an increase up to 58% was seen at Sudlow site II when comparing glycated HSA with normal HSA. These observed changes were compared to those of other first-generation sulfonylurea drugs, providing information on how glycation can alter the total and local binding strength of tolazamide and related compounds with HSA under levels of glycation seen in patients with diabetes.
