Toxic side-effects of diaspirin cross-linked human hemoglobin are attenuated by the apohemoglobin-haptoglobin complex. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 174:116569.

Abstract
Alpha-alpha diaspirin-crosslinked human hemoglobin (DCLHb or ααHb) was a promising early generation red blood cell (RBC) substitute. The DCLHb was developed through a collaborative effort between the United States Army and Baxter Healthcare. The core design feature underlying its development was chemical stabilization of the tetrameric structure of hemoglobin (Hb) to prevent Hb intravascular dimerization and extravasation. DCLHb was developed to resuscitate warfighters on the battlefield, who suffered from life-threatening blood loss. However, extensive research revealed toxic side effects associated with the use of DCLHb that contributed to high mortality rates in clinical trials. This study explores whether scavenging Hb and heme via the apohemoglobin-haptoglobin (apoHb-Hp) complex can reduce DCLHb associated toxicity. Awake Golden Syrian hamsters were equipped with a window chamber model to characterize the microcirculation. Each group was first infused with either Lactated Ringer's or apoHb-Hp followed by a hypovolemic infusion of 10% of the animal's blood volume of DCLHb. Our results indicated that animals pretreated with apoHb-Hb exhibited improved microhemodynamics vs the group pretreated with Lactated Ringer's. While systemic acute inflammation was observed regardless of the treatment group, apoHb-Hp pretreatment lessened those effects with a marked reduction in IL-6 levels in the heart and kidneys compared to the control group. Taken together, this study demonstrated that utilizing a Hb and heme scavenger protein complex significantly reduces the microvasculature effects of ααHb, paving the way for improved HBOC formulations. Future apoHb-Hp dose optimization studies may identify a dose that can completely neutralize DCLHb toxicity.

Abstract
A biosensor based on the enzyme-catalysed dissolution of biodegradable polymer films has been developed. Three polymer-enzyme systems were investigated for use in the sensor: a poly(ester amide), which is degraded by the proteolytic enzyme alpha-chymotrypsin; a dextran hydrogel, which is degraded by dextranase; and poly(trimethylene) succinate, which is degraded by a lipase. Dissolution of the polymer films was monitored by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR). The rate of degradation was directly related to enzyme concentration for each polymer/enzyme couple. The poly(ester amide)/alpha-chymotrypsin couple proved to be the most sensitive over a concentration range from 4 x 10(-11) to 4 x 10(-7) mol l(-1) of enzyme. The rate of degradation was shown to be independent of the thickness of the poly(ester amide) films. The dextran hydrogel/dextranase couple was less sensitive than the poly(ester amide)/alpha-chymotrypsin couple but showed greater degradation rates at low enzyme concentrations. Enzyme concentrations as low as 2 x 10(-11) mol l(-1) were detected in less than 20 min. Potential fields of application of such a sensor system are the detection of enzyme concentrations and the construction of disposable enzyme based immunosensors, which employ the polymer-degrading enzyme as an enzyme label.

Abstract
It is generally difficult to block protein-protein interactions with small-molecule drugs. A novel pharmaceutical development strategy to block protein interactions is emerging: targeted covalent modification to sterically block interactions. By this approach, compounds first interact non-covalently with a specific target protein. This interaction juxtaposes a weakly reactive group of the drug with a target amino acid sidechain, which then react by virtue of their high local concentration.

Abstract
Human hemoglobin was reacted with the bifunctional reagent bis(3,5-dibromosalicyl) fumarate to yield a derivative (Hb alpha alpha) crosslinked between the two alpha-chains; when the reaction was carried out with HbA already crosslinked between the two beta-chains by 2-nor-2-formylpyridoxal 5'-phosphate, a doubly crosslinked derivative (Hb alpha alpha beta beta) was obtained. We have observed that both modified hemoglobins are extremely stable up to temperatures of at least 85 degrees C. The carbon monoxide binding kinetics of both crosslinked hemoglobins, studied at temperatures between 15 and 85 degrees C, by means of stopped flow and flash photolysis techniques, show that the ligand-linked allosteric transition is maintained even at the highest temperatures. These results are also relevant to the mechanism of thermal unfolding of human hemoglobin, since they show that dissociation into alpha beta dimers (and exposure of the relatively hydrophobic dimer-dimer interfaces) is an obligatory step in the irreversible denaturation of deoxy and carbon monoxy hemoglobin.

Abstract
This study explored the inflammatory mechanism of toxicity of hemoglobin solutions (Hb-S). Human monocytes and mouse activated peritoneal macrophages were incubated with seven different solutions. The first four consisted of non-cross-linked bovine Hb. Of these, Hb-SI was incompletely purified of stromal phospholipids, Hb-SII was contaminated with environmental bacterial endotoxins, Hb-SIII was pure hemoglobin, and Hb-SIV was pure Hb with the addition of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and mannitol (M). The other three solutions were made of pure bovine Hb cross-linked with different agents: Hb-SV, reacted with glutaraldehyde; Hb-SVI reacted with bis-3,5-dibromosalicyl fumarate (DBSF); and Hb-SVII reacted with a ring-opened dialdehyde derivative of 5'(pyro)-phosphate of adenosine (ATP) (o-ATP). The reaction of monocytes and macrophages was studied in terms of (a) O2-derived radicals, as determined by the measurement of H2O2 and lipid peroxides; (b) complement factor C3a desArg; (c) 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (stable metabolite of prostacyclin); and (d) TxB2 (stable metabolite of thromboxane) released into the culture supernatants. The most significant reactions were obtained with the solutions contaminated with stromal phospholipids or bacterial endotoxins. Pure Hb was less reactive. Further reduction in proinflammatory activity was achieved by the addition of oxygen radical-scavengers (SOD, CAT, and M), or by the cross-linking of Hb with DBSF or o-ATP.

Abstract
Initial studies have shown that fish lens protein can be modified in vitro to acquire a specific affinity for selected molecules, e.g., human hemoglobins, and cells, e.g., human erythrocytes. These studies were extended by preparing lens reagents that can distinguish bovine serum albumin from ovalbumin, and major groups of human erythrocytes in the ABO system from each other. Lens reagents appear to be potentially useful tools for the identification of specific molecules, either in solution or on cell surfaces.

Abstract
Studies of modification of hemoglobin and of sickle hemoglobin by alternative aspirins have been extended to a series of new bis esters with a variety of substituted bridging diacids and to a group of mono esters with polar acyl groups. Rates of hydrolysis of these alternative aspirins have also been examined, and they reveal that a careful balance between stability and reactivity is essential for optimal activity. Four-carbon bridging groups have been found to be particularly effective, two of these raising the minimum gelling concentration of sickle hemoglobin by as much as 100%.
