Abstract
Targeted therapy to the tumor would greatly advance precision medicine. Many drug delivery vehicles have emerged, but liposomes are cited as the most successful to date. Recent efforts to develop liposomal drug delivery systems focus on drug distribution in tissues and ignore liposomal fate. In this study, we developed a novel method to elucidate both drug and liposomal bilayer distribution in a three-dimensional cell culture model using quantitative matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI qMSI) alongside fluorescence microscopy. Imaging liposomal distribution in a cell culture model is challenging, as lipids forming the bilayer are endogenous to the model system. To resolve this issue, we functionalized the bilayer by chemically cross-linking a fluorescent tag to the alkyne-containing lipid hexynoyl phosphoethanolamine (HPE). We synthesized liposomes incorporating the tagged HPE lipid and encapsulated within them doxorubicin, yielding a theranostic liposome capable of both drug delivery and monitoring liposomal uptake. We employed an "in-tissue" MALDI qMSI approach to generate a calibration curve with R2 = 0.9687, allowing for quantification of doxorubicin within spheroid sections at multiple time points. After 72 h of treatment with the theranostic liposomes, full doxorubicin penetration was observed. The metabolites doxorubicinone and 7-deoxydoxorubicinone were also detected after 48 h. Modification of the bilayer allowed for fluorescence microscopy tracking of liposomes, while MALDI MSI simultaneously permitted the imaging of drugs and metabolites. While we demonstrated the utility of our method with doxorubicin, this system could be applied to examine the uptake, release, and metabolism of many other liposome-encapsulated drugs.

Abstract
Bacterial natural products (BNPs) are very important sources of leads for drug development and chemical novelty. The possibility to perform late-stage diversification of BNPs using biocatalysis is an attractive alternative route other than total chemical synthesis or metal complexation reactions. Although biocatalysis is gaining popularity as a green chemistry methodology, a vast majority of orphan sequenced genomic data related to metabolic pathways for BNP biosynthesis and its tailoring enzymes are underexplored. In this review, we report a systematic overview of biotransformations of 21 molecules, which include derivatization by halogenation, esterification, reduction, oxidation, alkylation and nitration reactions, as well as degradation products as their sub-derivatives. These BNPs were grouped based on their biological activities into antibacterial (5), antifungal (5), anticancer (5), immunosuppressive (2) and quorum sensing modulating (4) compounds. This study summarized 73 derivatives and 16 degradation sub-derivatives originating from 12 BNPs. The highest number of biocatalytic reactions was observed for drugs that are already in clinical use: 28 reactions for the antibacterial drug vancomycin, followed by 18 reactions reported for the immunosuppressive drug rapamycin. The most common biocatalysts include oxidoreductases, transferases, lipases, isomerases and haloperoxidases. This review highlights biocatalytic routes for the late-stage diversification reactions of BNPs, which potentially help to recognize the structural optimizations of bioactive scaffolds for the generation of new biomolecules, eventually leading to drug development.

Abstract
Based on upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) as energy donor and herring sperm DNA (hsDNA) as molecular recognition element, an unlabelled upconversion luminescence (UCL) affinity biosensor was constructed for the detection of anthraquinone (AQ) anticancer drugs in biological fluids. AQ anticancer drugs can insert into the double helix structure of hsDNA on the surface of UCNPs, thereby shortening the distance from UCNPs. Therefore, the luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) phenomenon is effectively triggered between UCNPs and AQ anticancer drugs. Hence, AQ anticancer drugs can be quantitatively detected according to the UCL quenching rate. The biosensor showed good sensitivity and stability for the detection of daunorubicin (DNR) and doxorubicin (ADM). For the detection of DNR, the linear range is 1-100 μg·mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.60 μg·mL-1, and for ADM, the linear range is 0.5-100 μg·mL-1 with a LOD of 0.38 μg·mL-1. The proposed biosensor provides a convenient method for monitoring AQ anticancer drugs in clinical biological fluids in the future.

Abstract
Developing a simple analytical method suitable for therapeutic drug monitoring in a clinical setting is key to establishing guidelines on accurate dose administration and the advancement of precision medicine. We devised a simple rapid analytical method through the combination of streptavidin-modified microparticles and a time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay for therapeutic drug monitoring. The analytical performance of this method was investigated and validated using clinical samples. By determination of doxorubicin concentration, the proposed assay has shown a satisfactory linear range of detection (3.8-3000 ng mL-1) with a limit of detection of 3.8 ng mL-1 and an IC50 of 903.9 ng mL-1. The intra and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 4.12-5.72% and 5.48-6.91%, respectively, and the recovery was acceptable. The applicability of the proposed assay was assessed by comparing the determined results with those measured by LC-MS/MS, presenting a satisfactory correlation (R 2 = 0.9868). The proposed assay, which shows satisfactory analytical performance, has great potential for application in the field of TDM in the future.

Abstract
Cancer chemotherapeutics often fail to reach all diseased cells. To help solve this problem, researchers are investigating novel drug delivery systems. Liposomes are an attractive option due to their low toxicity, high biocompatibility, and potential to carry a large amount of a drug to the tumor site, all while avoiding being eliminated from the body. This study evaluates the penetration of doxorubicin-encased liposomes into three-dimensional cell cultures, or spheroids. Liposomes composed of lipids containing head groups of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and cholesterol were created by extrusion. Doxorubicin is encapsulated within the hydrophilic core of the liposome. The drug is actively released in the spheroid as the lipids bind to cellular lipid bilayers. Spheroids were dosed with liposomal doxorubicin, free doxorubicin, or media control to assess drug distribution over the course of 72 h. Drug penetration was visualized by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Imaging Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-IMS) with confirmation by steady state fluorescence microscopy, creating a comprehensive picture of drug distribution. This technique is able to identify both free and liposomal doxorubicin throughout the spheroid after just 12 hours of treatment. Additionally, MALDI-IMS is able to detect three metabolites of doxorubicin, indicating that cells actively metabolize the drug during treatment. Steady state fluorescence microscopy cannot distinguish the drug from its metabolites as they have the same emission spectra. This report summarizes the first study to use MALDI-IMS to analyze drug penetration of a liposomal drug carrier as well as its metabolites.

Abstract
Peroxisomes produce reactive oxygen species which may participate in biotransformations of innate biomolecules and xenobiotics. Isolating functional peroxisomes with low levels of contaminants would be a useful tool to investigate biotransformations occurring in these organelles that are usually confounded with biotransformations occurring in other co-isolated organelles. Here, we immunoisolate peroxisomes and demonstrate that the impurity level after isolation is low and that peroxisomes retain their biological activity. In this method, an antibody targeting a 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein was immobilized to silanized magnetic iron oxide beads (1-4 μm in diameter) coated with Protein A. Peroxisomes from L6 rat myoblast homogenates were magnetically captured, washed, and then analyzed for subcellular composition using enzymatic assays. Based on the ratio of peroxisomal to lysosomal activity, the retained fraction is 70-fold enriched relative to the unretained fraction. Similarly, the ratio of peroxisomal activity to mitochondrial content suggests that the retained fraction is >30-fold enriched relative to the unretained fraction. H(2)O(2) production from the β-oxidation of palmitoyl-CoA demonstrated that the isolated peroxisomal fraction was biologically active. Capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection (CE-LIF) analysis confirmed that the immunopurified fractions were capable of transforming the anticancer drug doxorubicin and the fatty acid analog, BODIPY 500/510 C1C12. Besides its use to investigate peroxisome biotransformations in health and disease, the combination of magnetic immunoisolation with CE-LIF could be widely applicable to investigate subcellular-specific biotransformations of xenobiotics occurring at immunoisolated subcellular compartments.

Abstract
In the last decades, the number of patients receiving chemotherapy has considerably increased. Given the toxicity of cytotoxic agents to humans (not only for patients but also for healthcare professionals), the development of reliable analytical methods to analyse these compounds became necessary. From the discovery of new substances to patient administration, all pharmaceutical fields are concerned with the analysis of cytotoxic drugs. In this review, the use of methods to analyse cytotoxic agents in various matrices, such as pharmaceutical formulations and biological and environmental samples, is discussed. Thus, an overview of reported analytical methods for the determination of the most commonly used anticancer drugs is given.

Abstract
The metabolism of doxorubicin, a widely used anticancer drug, is different in young adult and old cancer patients. In this study, we demonstrate that micellar electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence detection is highly suited to monitor the metabolism of doxorubicin in subcellular fractions isolated from young adult (11 months, 100% survival rate) and old (26 months, ~25% survival rate) Fischer 344 rat livers. The relative amounts of doxorubicin metabolized in both mitochondria-enriched and postmitochondria fractions of young adult were larger than the respective fractions of old rat liver. 7-Deoxydoxorubicinolone and 7-deoxydoxorubicinone were identified using internal standard addition and structural elucidation by high-performance liquid chromatography with combined laser-induced fluorescence and mass spectrometry detection. Although high-performance liquid chromatography with combined laser-induced fluorescence and mass spectrometry detection is more useful in the identification of compounds, micellar electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence detection has low-sample requirements, simplified sample processing procedures, short analysis times and low limit of detection. Therefore, the combination of these two techniques provides a powerful approach to investigate metabolism of fluorescent drugs in aging studies.
