Knežević L, Bura-Nakić E. Investigation of thiol compounds (L-cysteine, thioacetic acid and ethanethiol) with V(V) and V(IV) using combined spectroscopy and chromatography. J Inorg Biochem 2023; 242:112158. [PMID: 36773444 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2023.112158] [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: 11/11/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
The interactions of V(V) and L-cysteine, thioacetic acid and ethanethiol were studied in aqueous solution using chromatographic and spectral analysis. The chromatographic determination of V(V) and V(IV) species in the presence of thiols was enabled by inducing the ligand exchange reaction with EDTA as the competing ligand. Analytical setup allowed investigation of the possible redox and structural transformations of V(V) in the presence of thiols used over a wide pH range. Obtained data strongly suggest that the reduction of V(V) is proton catalyzed in case of L-cysteine and thioacetic acid. In the case of ethanethiol, the reduction did not seem to be proton dependent, as no reduction was observed above pH = 2. Thus, reduction was inhibited by the deprotonation of L-cysteine and thioacetic acid, with L-cysteine being the strongest reducing agent of V(V), followed by thioacetic acid and finally ethanethiol. Apart from structural thiol properties, the reduction reaction seems to be influenced by the aqueous V(V) speciation due to the observed nonlinear kinetics. In the case of all investigated thiols, the formation of V(V)-thioester intermediate species was an essential step for V(V) reduction. The structural properties of the V(IV)-thiol complexes were also found to be pH-dependent.

Abstract
![]()
The interaction with
proteins of metal-based drugs plays a crucial
role in their transport, mechanism, and activity. For an active MLn complex, where L is the organic carrier,
various binding modes (covalent and non-covalent, single or multiple)
may occur and several metal moieties (M, ML, ML2, etc.)
may interact with proteins. In this study, we have evaluated the interaction
of [VIVO(malt)2] (bis(maltolato)oxidovanadium(IV)
or BMOV, where malt = maltolato, i.e., the common name for 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-pyran-4-onato) with the model protein hen egg white lysozyme
(HEWL) by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, electron paramagnetic
resonance, and X-ray crystallography. The multiple binding of different
V-containing isomers and enantiomers to different sites of HEWL is
observed. The data indicate both non-covalent binding of cis-[VO(malt)2(H2O)] and [VO(malt)(H2O)3]+ and covalent binding of [VO(H2O)3–4]2+ and cis-[VO(malt)2] and other V-containing fragments to the side chains of Glu35,
Asp48, Asn65, Asp87, and Asp119 and to the C-terminal carboxylate.
Our results suggest that the multiple and variable interactions of
potential VIVOL2 drugs with proteins can help
to better understand their solution chemistry and contribute to define
the molecular basis of the mechanism of action of these intriguing
molecules. The interaction of [VIVO(malt)2] (BMOV,
malt = maltolato) with hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) reveals the multiple
binding of different V-containing isomers and enantiomers to different
sites and non-covalent and covalent binding of cis-[VO(malt)2(H2O)], [VO(malt)(H2O)3]+, [VO(H2O)3−4]2+, and cis-[VO(malt)2] to Glu,
Asp, and Asn residues.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds have frequently been proposed as therapeutics, but their application has been hampered by the lack of information on the different V-containing species that may form and how these interact with blood and cell proteins, and with enzymes. Herein, we report several resolved crystal structures of lysozyme with bound VIV O2+ and VIV OL2+ , where L=2,2'-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and of trypsin with VIV O(picolinato)2 and VV O2 (phen)+ moieties. Computational studies complete the refinement and shed light on the relevant role of hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, and microsolvation in stabilizating the structure. Noteworthy is that the trypsin-VV O2 (phen) and trypsin-VIV O(OH)(phen) adducts correspond to similar energies, thus suggesting a possible interconversion under physiological/biological conditions. The obtained data support the relevance of hydrolysis of VIV and VV complexes in the several types of binding established with proteins and the formation of different adducts that might contribute to their pharmacological action, and significantly widen our knowledge of vanadium-protein interactions.

Abstract
The structure, stability, and enzymatic activity of the adduct formed upon the reaction of the V-picolinato (pic) complex [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], with an octahedral geometry and the water ligand in cis to the V═O group, with the bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A) were studied. While electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, circular dichroism, and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy substantiate the interaction between the metal moiety and RNase A, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) allows us to determine that a carboxylate group, stemming from Asp or Glu residues, and imidazole nitrogen from His residues are involved in the V binding at acidic and physiological pH, respectively. Crystallographic data demonstrate that the VIVO(pic)2 moiety coordinates the side chain of Glu111 of RNase A, by substituting the equatorial water molecule at acidic pH. Computational methods confirm that Glu111 is the most affine residue and interacts favorably with the OC-6-23-Δ enantiomer establishing an extended network of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals stabilizations. By increasing the pH around neutrality, with the deprotonation of histidine side chains, the binding of the V complex to His105 and His119 could occur, with that to His105 which should be preferred when compared to that to the catalytically important His119. The binding of the V compound affects the enzymatic activity of RNase A, but it does not alter its overall structure and stability.

Therapeutic potential of vanadium complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline ligands, quo vadis? Fate of complexes in cell media and cancer cells. J Inorg Biochem 2021; 217:111350. [PMID: 33477088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2020.111350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2020] [Revised: 12/15/2020] [Accepted: 12/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
VIVO-complexes formulated as [VIVO(OSO3)(phen)2] (1) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), [VIVO(OSO3)(Me2phen)2] (2) (Me2phen = 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and [VIVO(OSO3)(amphen)2] (3) (amphen = 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline) were prepared and stability in cell incubation media evaluated. Their cytotoxicity was determined against the A2780 (ovarian), MCF7 (breast) and PC3 (prostate) human cancer cells at different incubation times. While at 3 and 24 h the cytotoxicity differs for complexes and corresponding free ligands, at 72 h incubation all compounds are equally active presenting low IC50 values. Upon incubation of A2780 cells with 1-3, cellular distribution of vanadium in cytosol, membranes, nucleus and cytoskeleton, indicate that the uptake of V is low, particularly for 1, and that the uptake pattern depends on the ligand. Nuclear microscopic techniques are used for imaging and elemental quantification in whole PC3 cells incubated with 1. Once complexes are added to cell culture media, they decompose, and with time most VIV oxidizes to VV-species. Modeling of speciation when [VIVO(OSO3)(phen)2] (1) is added to cell media is presented. At lower concentrations of 1, VIVO- and phen-containing species are mainly bound to bovine serum albumin, while at higher concentrations [VIVO(phen)n]2+-complexes become relevant, being predicted that the species taken up and mechanisms of action operating depend on the total concentration of complex. This study emphasizes that for these VIVO-systems, and probably for many others involving oxidovanadium or other labile metal complexes, it is not possible to identify active species or propose mechanisms of cytotoxic action without evaluating speciation occurring in cell media.

Abstract
Vanadium (V) could present a risk for aquatic organisms from the Alberta oil sands region, if present in high concentrations. An industry pilot project has used petroleum coke (PC) as a sorbent to remove organic toxicants from oil sands process-affected water (OSPW), but it also caused V to leach from PC into the OSPW, reaching concentrations of up to 7 mg V/L (a level known to be toxic to aquatic organisms). Vanadium is a transition metal with several oxidation states, which could potentially elicit its toxicity through either ion imbalance or oxidative stress. This study investigated the effect of V on Daphnia magna and Oncorhynchus mykiss. Daphinds and O. mykiss were exposed to concentrations of V up to their respective calculated median lethal concentration (LC50): 3 mg V/L for D. magna and 7 mg V/L for O. mykiss. For both organisms, the influence of V on sodium flux and whole body sodium was evaluated. Its effect on whole body calcium and the oxidative stress responses in O. mykiss at the gill and liver levels was also studied. Results suggested that 3.1 mg V/L for D. magna and 6.8 mg V/L for O. mykiss caused an overall increase in sodium influx in both the daphnids and rainbow trout. However, concentrations of V ranging between 0.2 and 4 mg V/L for D. magna and 1.8 and 6 mg V/L for O. mykiss reduced whole body sodium in both organisms and whole body calcium in O. mykiss. Concentrations above 3.6 mg V/L caused significant lipid peroxidation in the gills and liver of rainbow trout, while 1.9 mg V/L produced a substantial decrease in the fish gill GSH:GSSG ratio, but no change in the ratio between these thiols in the liver. Concentrations of 6.62 mg V/L sharply increased catalase activity in the liver but not in the gills. Neither liver nor gill superoxide dismutase was altered by V. Overall, results suggest that both ion imbalance and oxidative stress are part of the mechanism of toxicity of V in D. magna and O. mykiss and that further research is warranted to fully elucidate the mechanism(s) of V toxicity in aquatic organisms.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds have been primarily investigated as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of various major health issues, including cancer, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. The translation of vanadium-based compounds into clinical trials and ultimately into disease treatments remains hampered by the absence of a basic pharmacological and metabolic comprehension of such compounds. In this review, we examine the development of vanadium-containing compounds in biological systems regarding the role of the physiological environment, dosage, intracellular interactions, metabolic transformations, modulation of signaling pathways, toxicology, and transport and tissue distribution as well as therapeutic implications. From our point of view, the toxicological and pharmacological aspects in animal models and humans are not understood completely, and thus, we introduced them in a physiological environment and dosage context. Different transport proteins in blood plasma and mechanistic transport determinants are discussed. Furthermore, an overview of different vanadium species and the role of physiological factors (i.e., pH, redox conditions, concentration, and so on) are considered. Mechanistic specifications about different signaling pathways are discussed, particularly the phosphatases and kinases that are modulated dynamically by vanadium compounds because until now, the focus only has been on protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B as a vanadium target. Particular emphasis is laid on the therapeutic ability of vanadium-based compounds and their role for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, specifically on that of vanadate- and polioxovanadate-containing compounds. We aim at shedding light on the prevailing gaps between primary scientific data and information from animal models and human studies.

Abstract
In the last 30 years, since the discovery that vanadium is a cofactor found in certain enzymes of tunicates and possibly in mammals, different vanadium-based drugs have been developed targeting to treat different pathologies. So far, the in vitro studies of the insulin mimetic, antitumor and antiparasitic activity of certain compounds of vanadium have resulted in a great boom of its inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry. Chemical speciation studies of vanadium with amino acids under controlled conditions or, even in blood plasma, are essential for the understanding of the biotransformation of e.g. vanadium antidiabetic complexes at the physiological level, providing clues of their mechanism of action. The present article carries out a bibliographical research emphaticizing the chemical speciation of the vanadium with different amino acids and reviewing also some other important aspects such as its chemistry and therapeutical applications of several vanadium complexes.

Binding of vanadium to human serum transferrin - voltammetric and spectrometric studies. J Inorg Biochem 2017; 180:211-221. [PMID: 29355752 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2017.12.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2017] [Revised: 11/20/2017] [Accepted: 12/19/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Previous studies generally agree that in the blood serum vanadium is transported mainly by human serum transferrin (hTF). In this work through the combined use of electrochemical techniques, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data it is confirmed that both VIV and VV bind to apo-hTF and holo-hTF. The electrochemical behavior of solutions containing vanadate(V) solutions at pH=7.0, analyzed by using two different voltammetric techniques, with different time windows, at a mercury electrode, Differential Pulse Polarography (DPP) and Cyclic Voltammetry (CV), is consistent with a stepwise reduction of VV→VIV and VIV→VII. Globally the voltammetric data are consistent with the formation of 2:1 complexes in the case of the system VV-apo-hTF and both 1:1 and 2:1 complexes in the case of VV-holo-hTF; the corresponding conditional formation constants were estimated. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometric data carried out with samples of VIVOSO4 and apo-hTF and of NH4VVO3 with both apo-hTF and holo-hTF with V:hTF ratios of 3:1 are consistent with the binding of vanadium to the proteins. Additionally the SAXS data suggest that both VIVOSO4 and NaVVO3 can effectively interact with human apo-transferrin, but for holo-hTF no clear evidence was obtained supporting the existence or the absence of protein-ligand interactions. This latter data suggest that the conformation of holo-hTF does not change in the presence of either VIVOSO4 or NH4VVO3. Therefore, it is anticipated that VIV or VV bound to holo-hTF may be efficiently up-taken by the cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis of hTF.

J Inorg Biochem 2017; 175:284-297.

Abstract
The metal complexes designated by Casiopeínas® are mixed-ligand CuII-compounds some of them having promising antineoplastic properties. We report studies of binding of Cu(glycinato)(4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) (Cas-II-Gly (1)), Cu(acetylacetonato)(4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) (Cas-III-Ea (2)), Cu(glycinato)(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) (Cas-IV-Gly (3)) and Cu(acetylacetonato)(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) (Cas-III-ia (4)) to human serum albumin (HSA) by circular dichroism (CD), Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results indicate that HSA may bind up to three molecules of the tested Casiopeínas. This is confirmed by inductively coupled plasma - atomic absorption spectroscopy measurements of samples of HSA-Casiopeínas after passing by adequate size-exclusion columns. The binding of Cas-II-Gly to HSA was also confirmed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometric experiments. In the physiological range of concentrations the Casiopeínas form 1:1 adducts with HSA, with conditional binding constants of ca. 1×109 (1), 4×107 (2), 1×106 (3) and 2×105 (4), values determined from the CD spectra measured, and the fluorescence emission spectra indicates that the binding takes place close to the Trp214 residue. Overall, the data confirm that these Casiopeínas may bind to HSA and may be transported in blood serum by this protein; this might allow some selective tumor targeting, particularly in the case of Cas-II-Gly. In this work we also discuss aspects associated to the reliability of the frequently used methodologies to determine binding constants based on the measurement of fluorescence emission spectra of solutions containing low concentrations of proteins such as HSA and BSA, by titrations with solutions of metal complexes.

Abstract
[VO(acac)2 ] is a remarkable vanadium compound and has potential as a therapeutic drug. It is important to clarify how it is transported in blood, but the reports addressing its binding to serum proteins have been contradictory. We use several spectroscopic and mass spectrometric techniques (ESI and MALDI-TOF), small-angle X-ray scattering and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to characterize solutions containing [VO(acac)2 ] and either human serum apotransferrin (apoHTF) or albumin (HSA). DFT and modeling protein calculations are carried out to disclose the type of binding to apoHTF. The measured circular dichroism spectra, SEC and MALDI-TOF data clearly prove that at least two VO-acac moieties may bind to apoHTF, most probably forming [VIV O(acac)(apoHTF)] complexes with residues of the HTF binding sites. No indication of binding of [VO(acac)2 ] to HSA is obtained. We conclude that VIV O-acac species may be transported in blood by transferrin. At very low complex concentrations speciation calculations suggest that [(VO)(apoHTF)] species form.

Abstract
Vanadium is a transition metal that, being ubiquitously distributed in soil, crude oil, water and air, also found roles in biological systems and is an essential element in most living beings. There are also several groups of organisms which accumulate vanadium, employing it in their biological processes. Vanadium being a biological relevant element, it is not surprising that many vanadium based therapeutic drugs have been proposed for the treatment of several types of diseases. Namely, vanadium compounds, in particular organic derivatives, have been proposed for the treatment of diabetes, of cancer and of diseases caused by parasites. In this work we review the medicinal applications proposed for vanadium compounds with particular emphasis on the more recent publications. In cells, partly due to the similarity of vanadate and phosphate, vanadium compounds activate numerous signaling pathways and transcription factors; this by itself potentiates application of vanadium-based therapeutics. Nevertheless, this non-specific bio-activity may also introduce several deleterious side effects as in addition, due to Fenton's type reactions or of the reaction with atmospheric O2, VCs may also generate reactive oxygen species, thereby introducing oxidative stress with consequences presently not well evaluated, particularly for long-term administration of vanadium to humans. Notwithstanding, the potential of vanadium compounds to treat type 2 diabetes is still an open question and therapies using vanadium compounds for e.g. antitumor and anti-parasitic related diseases remain promising.

Abstract
The relevance of vanadium in biological systems is known for many years and vanadium-based catalysts have important industrial applications, however, till the beginning of the 80s research on vanadium chemistry and biochemistry did not receive much attention from the scientific community. The understanding of the broad bioinorganic implications resulting from the similarities between phosphate and vanadate(V) and the discovery of vanadium dependent enzymes gave rise to an enormous increase in interest in the chemistry and biological relevance of vanadium. Thereupon the last 30years corresponded to a period of enormous research effort in these fields, as well as in medicinal applications of vanadium and in the development of catalysts for use in fine-chemical synthesis, some of these inspired by enzymatic active sites. Since the 80s my group in collaboration with others made contributions, described throughout this text, namely in the understanding of the speciation of vanadium compounds in aqueous solution and in biological fluids, and to the transport of vanadium compounds in blood plasma and their uptake by cells. Several new types of vanadium compounds were also synthesized and characterized, with applications either as prospective therapeutic drugs or as homogeneous or heterogenized catalysts for the production of fine chemicals. The developments made are described also considering the international context of the evolution of the knowledge in the chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry of vanadium compounds during the last 30years. This article was compiled based on the Vanadis Award presentation at the 9th International Vanadium Symposium.

Abstract
Aqueous solutions of the four highest vanadium oxidation states exhibit four diverse colors, which only hint at the diverse reactions that these ions can undergo. Cationic vanadium ions form complexes with ligands; anionic vanadium ions form complexes with ligands and self-react to form isopolyanions. All vanadium species undergo oxidation-reduction reactions. With a few exceptions, elucidation of the dynamics of these reactions awaited the development of fast reaction techniques before the kinetics of elementary ligation, condensation, reduction, and oxidation of the aqueous vanadium ions could be investigated. As the biological roles played by endogenous and therapeutic vanadium expand, it is appropriate to bring the results of the diverse kinetics studies under one umbrella. To achieve this goal this review presents a systematic examination of elementary aqueous vanadium ion dynamics.

Abstract
Glutathione disulfide (GSSG), a long disregarded redox partner of glutathione (GSH), is thought to participate in intracellular zinc homeostasis. We performed a concerted potentiometric and NMR spectroscopic study of protonation and Zn(II) binding properties of GSSG ((γECG)(2)) and a series of its nine analogs with C-terminal modifications, tripeptide disulfides: (γECS)(2), (γECE)(2), (γECG-NH(2))(2), (γECG-OEt)(2), and (γEcG)(2); dipeptide disulfides, (γEC)(2) and (γEC-OEt)(2); and mixed disulfides, γECG-γEC and γECG-γEC-OEt. The acid-base and Zn(II) complexation properties in this group of compounds are strictly correlated to average C-terminal electrostatic charges. In particular, it was demonstrated that GSSG assumes a bent (head-to-tail) conformation in solution at neutral pH, which is controlled by electrostatic attraction between the protonated γ-amino groups of the Glu residue and the deprotonated C-terminal Gly carboxylates. This interaction modulates the ability of GSSG to coordinate Zn(II), both indirectly, by affecting the basicities of the amino groups, and directly, through the participation of the Gly carboxylates in the outer coordination sphere of the Zn(II) ion. A specific coiled structure of the major [Zn-GSSG](2-) complex is additionally stabilized by the formation of hydrogen bonds between glycinyl carboxylates and two Zn(II)-coordinated water molecules. The elevated stability of Zn(II)-GSSG complexes was demonstrated by competition with FluoZin-3, a fluorescent sensor with high Zn(II) affinity, commonly used in in vitro and in vivo studies. The potential biological functions and reactivity of GSSG complexes of Zn(II) ions are discussed.

Abstract
The structural speciation aspects, including the binding sites, species, complexation abilities and effects of the oxidized glutathione (GSSG) with aluminum(III) in aqueous solutions, have been studied by means of many analytical techniques: pH-potentiometry (25 degrees C, 0.1 M KCl and 37 degrees C, 0.15 M NaCl medium) was used to characterize the stoichiometry and stability of the species formed in the interactions of the Al(III) ion and the peptide GSSG, while multinuclear ((1)H, (13)C, (27)Al) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) were applied to characterize the binding sites and species of the metal ion in the complexes. Two-dimensional ((1)H, (1)H-NOESY) was also employed to reveal the difference in the conformational behavior of the peptide and its complexes. The following results were obtained: (1) Aluminum(III) can coordinate with the important biomolecule GSSG through the following binding sites: glycyl and glutamyl carboxyl groups to form various mononuclear 1:1 (AlLH(4), AlLH(3), AlLH(2), AlLH, AlL, AlLH(-1), AlLH(-2)) and several binuclear 2:1 (Al(2)LH(4), Al(2)LH(2), Al(2)L) species (where H(6)L(2+) denotes the totally protonated oxidized glutathione) in acidic aqueous solutions. (2) It indicates that the COO(-) groups at low level of preorganization in such small peptide are not sufficient to keep the Al(III) ion in solution and to prevent the precipitation of Al(OH)(3) in the physiological pH range. (3) It also suggests that the occurrence of an Al-linked complexation, the conformation of the peptide GSSG in aqueous solutions appeared to change a little, relative to the initial structure.

Abstract
The complexation of reduced glutathione (GSH) in its free and Al(III)-bound species in acidic aqueous solutions was characterized by means of multi-analytical techniques: pH-potentiometry, multinuclear ((1)H, (13)C and (27)Al) and two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement NMR spectroscopy ((1)H, (1)H-NOESY), electrospray mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), and ab initio electronic structure calculations. The following results were found. In the 25 degrees C 0.1M KCl and 37 degrees C 0.15M NaCl ionic medium systems, Al(3+) coordinates with the important biomolecule GSH through carboxylate groups to form various mononuclear 1:1 (AlHL, AlH(2)L and AlH(-1)L), 1:2 (AlL(2)) complexes, and dinuclear (Al(2)H(5)L(2)) species, where H(4)L(+) denotes totally protonated GSH. Besides the monodentate complexes through carboxylate groups, the amino groups and the peptide bond imino and carbonyl groups may also be involved in binding with Al(3+) in the bidentate and tridentate complexes. The present data reinforce that the glycine carboxylate group of GSH has a higher microscopic complex formation constant than gamma-glutamyl carboxylate. Compared with simple amino acids, the tripeptide GSH displays a greater affinity for the Al(3+) ion and thus may interfere with aluminum's biological role more significantly.

Abstract
The uptake of the oxidation products of two oxovanadium(IV) compounds, [N,N'-ethylenebis(pyridoxylaminato)]oxovanadium(IV), V(IV)O(Rpyr(2)en), and bis-[3-hydroxy-1,2-dimethyl-4-pyridinonato]oxovanadium(IV), V(IV)O(dmpp)(2), by human erythrocytes was studied using (51)V and (1)H NMR and EPR spectroscopy. V(IV)O(Rpyr(2)en) in aerobic aqueous solution is oxidized to its V(V) counterpart and the neutral form slowly enters the cells by passive diffusion. In aerobic conditions, V(IV)O(dmpp)(2) originates V(V) complexes of 1:1 and 1:2 stoichiometry. The neutral 1:1 species is taken up by erythrocytes through passive diffusion in a temperature-dependent process; its depletion from the extracellular medium promotes the dissociation of the negatively charged 1:2 species, and the protonation of the negatively charged 1:1 species. The identity of these complexes is not maintained inside the cells, and the intracellular EPR spectra suggest N(2)O(2) or NO(3) intracellular coordinating environments. The oxidative stress induced by the oxovanadium compounds in erythrocytes was not significant at 1mM concentration, but was increased by both vanadate and oxidized V(IV)O(dmpp)(2) at 5mM. Only 1mM oxidized V(IV)O(dmpp)(2) significantly stimulated erythrocytes glucose intake (0.75+/-0.13 against 0.37+/-0.17mM/h found for the control, p<0.05).

Abstract
Chromium(V) glutathione complexes are among the likely reactive intermediates in Cr(VI)-induced genotoxicity and carcinogenicity. The first definitive structure of one such complex, [Cr(V)O(LH(2))(2)](3)(-) (I; LH(5) = glutathione = GSH), isolated from the reaction of Cr(VI) with excess GSH at pH 7.0 (O'Brien, P.; Pratt, J.; Swanson, F. J.; Thornton, P.; Wang, G. Inorg. Chim. Acta 1990, 169, 265-269), has been determined by a combination of electrospray mass spectrometry (ESMS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), EPR spectroscopy, and analytical techniques. In addition, Cr(V) complexes of GSH ethyl ester (gamma-Glu-Cys-GlyOEt) have been isolated and characterized by ESMS, and Cr(III) products of the Cr(VI) + GSH reaction have been isolated and characterized by ESMS and XAS. The thiolato and amido groups of the Cys residue in GSH are responsible for the Cr(V) binding in I. The Cr-ligand bond lengths, determined from multiple-scattering XAFS analysis, are as follows: 1.61 A for the oxo donor; 1.99 A for the amido donors; and 2.31 A for the thiolato donors. A significant electron withdrawal from the thiolato groups to Cr(V) in I was evident from the XANES spectra. Rapid decomposition of I in aqueous solutions (pH = 1-13) occurs predominantly by ligand oxidation with the formation of Cr(III) complexes of GSH and GSSG. Maximal half-lives of the Cr(V) species (40-50 s at [Cr] = 1.0 mM and 25 degrees C) are observed at pH 7.5-8.0. The experimental data are in conflict with a recent communication (Gaggelli, E.; Berti, F.; Gaggelli, N.; Maccotta, A.; Valensin, G. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123, 8858-8859) on the formation of a Cr(V) dimer as a major product of the Cr(VI) + GSH reaction, which may have resulted from misinterpretation of the ESMS and NMR spectroscopic data.

Abstract
To shed light on the role of V(V) complexes as pro-drugs for their V(IV) analogues, the kinetics of the reduction reactions of [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- (Hma = maltol, Hema = ethylmaltol), with ascorbic acid or glutathione, have been studied in aqueous solution by spectrophotometric and magnetic resonance methods. EPR and 51V NMR studies suggested that the vanadium(V) in each complex was reduced to vanadium(IV) during the reactions. All the reactions studied showed first-order kinetics when the concentration of ascorbic acid or glutathione was in large excess and the observed first-order rate constants have a linear relationship with the concentrations of reductant (ascorbic acid or glutathione). Potentiometric results revealed that the most important species in the neutral pH range is [VO2(L)2]- for the V(V) system where L is either ma- or ema-. An acid dependence mechanism was proposed from kinetic studies with varying pH and varying maltol concentration. The good fits of the second order rate constant versus pH or the total concentration of maltol, and the good agreement of the constants obtained between fittings, strongly supported the mechanism. Under the same conditions, the reaction rate of [VO2(ma)2]- with glutathione is about 2000 times slower than that of [VO2(ma)2]- with ascorbic acid, but an acid dependence mechanism can also be used to explain the results for the reduction with glutathione. Replacing the methyl group in maltol with an ethyl group has little influence on the reduction rate with ascorbic acid, and the kinetics are the same no matter whether [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- is reduced.
