[PMID: 38811155 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.123.001637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Cantharidin is a terpenoid from coleoptera beetles. Cantharidin has been used to treat molluscum contagiosum and some types of tumors. Cantharidin is highly toxic, and cantharidin poisoning and fatal cases have been reported worldwide. The mechanisms underlying cantharidin-induced toxicity remain unclear. Cantharidin contains anhydride, which may react with biologic amines. This study aimed to examine the chemical reactivity of cantharidin toward nucleophiles and characterize adducts of cantharidin with biologic amines in vitro and in mice. Here two types of conjugates were formed in the incubation of cantharidin under physiologic conditions with free amino acids, a mimic peptide, or amine-containing compounds, respectively. Amide-type conjugates were produced by the binding of cantharidin anhydride with the primary amino group of biologic amines. Imide-type conjugates were generated from the dehydration and cyclization of amide-type conjugates. The structure of the conjugates was characterized by using high-resolution mass spectrometry. We introduced the 14N/15N and 79Br/81Br isotope signatures to confirm the formation of conjugates using L-(ε)15N-lysine, L-lysine-15N2, and bromine-tagged hydrazine, respectively. The structure of imide conjugate was also confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. Furthermore, the amide and imide conjugates of cantharidin with amino acids or N-acetyl-lysine were detected in mouse liver and urine. Cantharidin was found to modify lysine residue proteins in mouse liver. Pan-cytochrome P450 inhibitor 1-aminobenzotriazole significantly increased the urine cantharidin-N-acetyl-lysine conjugates, whereas it decreased cantharidin metabolites. In summary, cantharidin anhydride can covalently bind to biologic amines nonenzymatically, which facilitates a better understanding of the role of nonenzymatic reactivity in cantharidin poisoning. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Anhydride moiety of cantharidin can covalently bind to the primary amino group of biological amines nonenzymatically. Amide and imide conjugates were generated after the covalent binding of cantharidin anhydride with the primary amino groups of amino acids, a mimic peptide, and protein lysine residues. The structure of conjugates was confirmed by 14N/15N and 79Br/81Br isotope signatures using isotope-tagged reagents and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. This study will facilitate the understanding of the role of nonenzymatic reactivity in cantharidin poisoning.

Abstract
Herein, we report an oxygen insertion in activated ketones from simple inorganic carbonates for the synthesis of symmetric aromatic anhydrides. For the first time, Li2CO3 acts as an oxygen source and the in situ generated symmetric aromatic anhydrides undergo Pummerer-type rearrangement to access α-benzoyloxy-thioethers. Attractively, this protocol occurs under metal-, ligand-, and oxidant-free conditions and is compatible with a wide range of substrates. Control experiments reveal the reaction pathway.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass represents an abundant and eco-friendly material widely explored in recent years. The main lignocellulosic fractions include cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Nonetheless, the heterogeneity and complexity of these components pose challenges in achieving the desired properties. Conversely, their attractive functional groups can covalently link with other biomolecules, facilitating the creation and enhancement of material properties. Lignocellulosic molecules can form different linkages with other biomolecules through classic and modern methods. Bioconjugation has emerged as a suitable alternative to create new nuances, empowering the linkage between lignocellulosic materials and biomolecules through linkers. These conjugates (lignocellulosic-linkers-biomolecules) attract attention from stakeholders in medicine, chemistry, biology, and agriculture. The plural formations of these biocomplexes highlight the significance of these arrangements. Therefore, this review provides an overview of the progress of lignocellulosic-biomolecule complexes and discusses different types of covalent bioconjugated systems, considering the formation of linkers, applicability, toxicity, and future challenges.

Abstract
The design of functional polymers coupled with stimuli-triggered drug release mechanisms is a promising achievement to overcome various biological barriers. pH trigger methods yield significant potential for controlled targeting and release of therapeutics due to their simplicity and relevance, especially upon cell internalization. Here, we introduce reactive polymers that conjugate primary or secondary amines and release potential drugs under acidic conditions. For that purpose, we introduced methacrylamide-based monomers with pendant 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride groups. Such groups allow the conjugation of primary and secondary amines but are resistant to radical polymerization conditions. We, therefore, polymerized 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride amide-based methacrylates via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Their amine-reactive anhydrides could sequentially be derivatized by primary or secondary amines into hydrophilic polymers. Acidic pH-triggered drug release from the polymeric systems was fine-tuned by comparing different amines. Thereby, the conjugation of primary amines led to the formation of irreversible imide bonds in dimethyl sulfoxide, while secondary amines could quantitatively be released upon acidification. In vitro, this installed pH-responsiveness can contribute to an effective release of conjugated immune stimulatory drugs under endosomal pH conditions. Interestingly, the amine-modified polymers generally showed no toxicity and a high cellular uptake. Furthermore, secondary amine-modified immune stimulatory drugs conjugated to the polymers yielded better receptor activity and immune cell maturation than their primary amine derivatives due to their pH-sensitive drug release mechanism. Consequently, 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride-based polymers can be considered as a versatile platform for pH-triggered delivery of various (immuno)drugs, thus enabling new strategies in macromolecule-assisted immunotherapy.

Abstract
Low infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and their exhaustion manifest the two concurrent main hurdles for achieving effective tumor immunotherapy of triple-negative breast cancer. It is found that Galectin-9 blockage can revise the exhaustion of effector T cells, meanwhile the repolarization of protumoral M2 tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) into tumoricidal M1-like ones can recruit effector T cells infiltrating into tumor to boost immune responses. Herein, a sheddable PEG-decorated and M2-TAMs targeted nanodrug incorporating Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 6 inhibitor (AS) and anti-Galectin-9 antibody (aG-9) is prepared. The nanodrug responds to acidic tumor microenvironment (TME) with the shedding of PEG corona and the release of aG-9, exerting local blockade of PD-1/Galectin-9/TIM-3 interaction to augment effector T cells via exhaustion reversing. Synchronously, targeted repolarization of M2-TAMs into M1 phenotype by AS-loaded nanodrug is achieved, which promotes tumor infiltration of effector T cells and thus synergizes with aG-9 blockade to boost the therapeutic efficacy. Besides, the PEG-sheddable approach endows nanodrug with stealth ability to reduce immune-related adverse effects caused by AS and aG-9. This PEG sheddable nanodrug holds the potential to reverse the immunosuppressive TME and increase effector T cell infiltration, which dramatically enhances immunotherapy in highly malignant breast cancer.

Abstract
Surface chemistry is a key determinant of the physico-chemical and biological properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The introduction of chemical diversity in the surface of AuNPs is usually accomplished by place-exchange reactions using incoming ligands containing the desired terminal functional groups. As an alternative approach, we present here a simple, practical methodology to modify the surface of gold nanoparticles that allows the preparation of AuNPs stabilized with polyethyleneglycol (PEG) ligands with different surface chemistries using AuNPs stabilized with thiol-PEG-amino ligands as starting material. The surface modification reaction involves the acylation of the terminal amino groups in the ligand with an organic acid anhydride in an aqueous buffer. In addition to a full surface modification, this method also allows the synthesis of AuNPs with tailored mixed surfaces, containing two or more different functional groups, each of them at the desired extent. The ease of the experimental conditions for the reaction, purification, and for determining the level of surface modification makes this strategy an attractive alternative to current methods for the preparation of AuNPs with diverse surface chemistry.

Abstract
The carboxylic chemical group is a ubiquitous moiety present in amino acids, a ligand for transition metals, a colloidal stabilizer, and a weak acidic ion-exchanger in polymeric resins and given this property, it is attractive for responsive materials or nanopore-based gating applications. As the number of uses increases, subtle requirements are imposed on this molecular group when anchored to various platforms for the functioning of an integrated chemical system. In this context, silica stands as an inert and multipurpose platform that enables the anchoring of multiple chemical entities combined through several orthogonal synthesis methods on the interface. Surface chemical modification relies on the use of organoalkoxysilanes that must meet the demand of tuned chemical properties; this, in turn, urges for innovative approaches for having an improved, but simple, organic toolbox. Starting from commonly available molecular precursors, several approaches have emerged: hydrosilylation, click thiol-ene additions, the use of carbodiimides or the reaction between cyclic anhydrides and anchored amines. In this review, we analyze the importance of the COOH groups in the area of materials science and the commercial availability of COOH-based silanes and present new approaches for obtaining COOH-based organoalkoxide precursors. Undoubtedly, this will attract widespread interest for the ultimate design of highly integrated chemical platforms.

Abstract
Based on the premise that aqueous anions of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) are capable of electrostatic interaction with cationic and polar active sites, acid-washed Madacamia nutshell biomass was sequentially treated with diethylenetriamine (DETA) and maleic anhydride (MA) to graft poly(diethylenetriamine-co-maleic anhydride). By displaying a new peak at 1685 cm-1 ascribed to amide CO stretching vibrations, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy highlighted the formation of amide groups through reaction of DETA with carboxyl groups on the biomass surface. Scanning electron microscopic images of the MA-modified biomass displayed polymeric growths attributed to copolymerization of DETA with MA. The polar and ionizable amide and amine groups of the grafted copolymer endowed the adsorbent with Cr(VI) removal capabilities over a wide pH range demonstrated by removal efficiencies between 70.9% and 81.7% in the pH 1.6 to pH 10.0 range for the treatment of 20 mL solutions containing 100 mg L-1 Cr(VI) with 200 mg of adsorbent. Conformity of the adsorption isotherm data to the Freundlich model revealed the heterogeneous nature of the adsorbent surface, which comprised a variety of functional groups capable of interaction with Cr(VI) species in solution. The Sips isotherm model provided the best fit to the equilibrium experimental data, and the adsorption capacity was 779.1 mg g-1 at pH 1.6, room temperature and an adsorbent dosage of 5.0 g L-1. The findings indicate that Cr(VI) adsorption onto diethylenetriamine and maleic anhydride modified Madacamia nutshell biomass is a promising option for Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the diseases with the highest mortality rate. Treatments to mitigate cancer are usually so intense and invasive that they weaken the patient to cure as dangerous as the own disease. From some time ago until today, to reduce resistance generated by the constant administration of the drug and improve its pharmacokinetics, scientists have been developing drug delivery system (DDS) technology. DDS platforms aim to maximize the drugs’ effectiveness by directing them to reach the affected area by the disease and, therefore, reduce the potential side effects. Erythrocytes, antibodies, and nanoparticles have been used as carriers. Eleven antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) involving covalent linkage has been commercialized as a promising cancer treatment in the last years. This review describes the general features and applications of DDS focused on the covalent conjugation system that binds the antibody carrier to the cytotoxic drug.

Abstract
Guanidinoglycosides are a class of non-cytotoxic molecular transporters capable of delivering high molecular weight bioactive cargos into cells at low nanomolar concentrations. Efficient bioconjugation with guanidinoglycosides has been previously demonstrated by utilizing a guanidinoneomycin decorated with a reactive but also unstable N-hydroxysuccinimmide ester-containing linker. Herein we report the synthesis, chemistry, and application of a new, stable guanidinoneomycin derivative armed with a highly specific maleimide moiety which allows for thiol-maleimide click chemistry, a highly popular bioconjugation strategy, widening the field of application of these intriguing and useful delivery vehicles.
