Abstract
Our previously reported copper-based complexes of tropolone show nice antitumor effects, but with high cytotoxicity to normal cells, which is presumably caused by copper ions. Here, we managed to achieve this challenge by using other 3D metals to replace copper ions. We thus prepared four mononuclear 3D metal complexes [M(phen)L2] (M = Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn for 1-4, respectively). Complexes 1 and 4 show selectivity on different cancer cell lines with much lower cytotoxicity to normal cells than cisplatin. The anticancer effects for complexes 2 and 3 on the tested cancer cell lines are very poor. It revealed a tuning effect of different metal ions on the anticancer activities with those for Mn(II) and Zn(II) being much higher than those for Co(II) and Ni(II) in this system. Among them, complex 1 presents a best anticancer effect on HeLa cells comparable to cisplatin. It overcame the afore-mentioned shortage of high cytotoxicity to normal cells for the reported Cu(II) complexes. It revealed from the mechanistic studies that complex 1 mainly induces apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway by increasing intracellular reactive oxygen species, releasing Ca2+, and activating Caspase 9 and proapoptotic gene Bax.

Abstract
Simultaneous delivery of small molecules and nucleic acids using a single vehicle can lead to novel combination treatments and multifunctional carriers for a variety of diseases. In this study, we report a novel library of aminoglycoside-derived lipopolymers nanoparticles (LPNs) for the simultaneous delivery of different molecular cargoes including nucleic acids and small-molecules. The LPN library was screened for transgene expression efficacy following delivery of plasmid DNA, and lead LPNs that showed high transgene expression efficacies were characterized using hydrodynamic size, zeta potential, 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. LPNs demonstrated significantly higher efficacies for transgene expression than 25 kDa polyethyleneamine (PEI) and lipofectamine, including in presence of serum. Self-assembly of these cationic lipopolymers into nanoparticles also facilitated the delivery of small molecule drugs (e.g. doxorubicin) to cancer cells. LPNs were also employed for the simultaneous delivery of the small-molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor AR-42 together with plasmid DNA to cancer cells as a combination treatment approach for enhancing transgene expression. Taken together, our results indicate that aminoglycoside-derived LPNs are attractive vehicles for simultaneous delivery of imaging agents or chemotherapeutic drugs together with nucleic acids for different applications in medicine and biotechnology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To optimize synthetic gene delivery systems, there is a need to develop more efficient lipid formulations. Most cationic lipid formulations contain 'helper' neutral lipids because of their ability to increase DNA delivery, in particular by improving endosomal escape of DNA molecules via the pH-buffering effect of protonatable groups and/or fusion with the lipid bilayer of endosomes. METHODS We evaluated the influence of the linker structure between the two oleyl chains in the helper lipid on transfection efficiency in cell lines, as well as in primary cells (hepatocytes/cardiomyocytes). We reported the synthesis of two new pH-buffering imidazole helper lipids characterized by a polar headgroup containing one (compound 6) or two (compound 5) imidazole groups and two oleyl chains linked by an amide group. We studied their association with the aminoglycoside lipidic derivative dioleylsuccinylparomomycin (DOSP), which contains two oleyl chains linked to the aminoglycoside polar headgroup via an amide function. We compared the morphology and transfection properties of such binary liposomes of DOSP/5 and DOSP/6 with those of liposomes combining DOSP with another imidazole-based dioleyl helper lipid (MM27) in which a phosphoramido group acts as a linker between the two oleyl chains and imidazole function. RESULTS The phosphoramido linker in the helper lipid induces a major difference in terms of morphology and resistance to decomplexation at physical pH for DOSP/helper lipid complexes. CONCLUSIONS This hybrid dioleyl linker composition of DOSP/MM27 led to higher transfection efficiency in cell lines and in primary cells compared to complexes with homogeneous dioleyl linker.

Aminoglycoside-derived amphiphilic nanoparticles for molecular delivery. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2016; 146:924-37.

Abstract
The development of effective drug carriers can lead to improved outcomes in a variety of disease conditions. Aminoglycosides have been used as antibacterial therapeutics, and are attractive as monomers for the development of polymeric materials in various applications. Here, we describe the development of novel aminoglycoside-derived amphiphilic nanoparticles for drug delivery, with an eye towards ablation of cancer cells. The aminoglycoside paromomycin was first cross-linked with resorcinol diglycidyl ether leading to the formation of a poly (amino ether), PAE. PAE molecules were further derivatized with methoxy-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) or mPEG resulting in the formation of mPEG-PAE polymer, which self-assembled to form nanoparticles. Formation of the mPEG-PAE amphiphile was characterized using (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and FTIR spectroscopy. Self-assembly of the polymer into nanoparticles was characterized using dynamic light scattering, zeta potential analyses, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the pyrene fluorescence assay. mPEG-PAE nanoparticles were able to carry significant amounts of doxorubicin (DOX), presumably by means of hydrophobic interactions between the drug and the core. Cell-based studies indicated that mPEG-PAE nanoparticles, loaded with doxorubicin, were able to induce significant loss in viabilities of PC3 human prostate cancer, MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer, and MB49 murine bladder cancer cells; empty nanoparticles resulted in negligible losses of cell viability under the conditions investigated. Taken together, our results indicate that the mPEG-PAE nanoparticle platform is attractive for drug delivery in different applications, including cancer.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of anticancer therapeutics can potentially overcome the limitations associated with current chemotherapeutic regimens. Folate receptors are overexpressed in several cancers, including ovarian, triple-negative breast and bladder cancers, making them attractive for targeted delivery of nucleic acid therapeutics to these tumors. This work describes the synthesis, characterization and evaluation of folic acid-conjugated, aminoglycoside-derived polymers for targeted delivery of transgenes to breast and bladder cancer cell lines. Transgene expression was significantly higher with FA-conjugated aminoglycoside-derived polymers than with Lipofectamine, and these polymers demonstrated minimal cytotoxicty. Competitive inhibition using free folic acid significantly reduced transgene expression efficacy of folate-targeted polymers, suggesting a role for folate receptor-mediated uptake. High efficacy FA-targeted polymers were employed to deliver a plasmid expressing the TRAIL protein, which induced death in cancer cells. These results indicate that FA-conjugated aminoglycoside-derived polymers are promising for targeted delivery of nucleic acids to cancer cells that overexpress folate receptors.

Abstract
Plasmid DNA (pDNA) therapeutics are being investigated for gene therapy and DNA vaccines against diseases including cancer, cystic fibrosis and AIDS. In addition, several applications in modern biotechnology require pDNA for transient protein production. Here, we describe the synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of microbeads ("Amikabeads") derived from the aminoglycoside antibiotic amikacin for pDNA binding and in situ DNA capture from mammalian cells. The parental aminoglycoside-derived microbeads (Amikabeads-P) acted as anion-exchange materials, and demonstrated high capacities for binding pDNA. Binding of pDNA was significantly enhanced following quaternization of the amines on the microbeads (Amikabeads-Q). Amikabeads were further employed for the disruption and extraction of DNA from mammalian cells, indicating their utility for in situ DNA capture. Our results indicate that Amikabeads are a novel material, with multiple reactive groups for further conjugation, and can have several applications in plasmid DNA biotechnology.

Abstract
We describe the combinatorial synthesis and cheminformatics modeling of aminoglycoside antibiotics-derived polymers for transgene delivery and expression. Fifty-six polymers were synthesized by polymerizing aminoglycosides with diglycidyl ether cross-linkers. Parallel screening resulted in identification of several lead polymers that resulted in high transgene expression levels in cells. The role of polymer physicochemical properties in determining efficacy of transgene expression was investigated using Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) cheminformatics models based on Support Vector Regression (SVR) and 'building block' polymer structures. The QSAR model exhibited high predictive ability, and investigation of descriptors in the model, using molecular visualization and correlation plots, indicated that physicochemical attributes related to both, aminoglycosides and diglycidyl ethers facilitated transgene expression. This work synergistically combines combinatorial synthesis and parallel screening with cheminformatics-based QSAR models for discovery and physicochemical elucidation of effective antibiotics-derived polymers for transgene delivery in medicine and biotechnology.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (GNRs) have emerged as promising nanomaterials for biosensing, imaging, photothermal hyperthermia treatments, and therapeutic delivery for several diseases. We generated poly(aminoether)-GNR nanoassemblies using a layer-by-layer deposition approach based on the 1,4C-1,4Bis polymer from a library recently synthesized in our laboratory. Subtoxic concentrations of 1,4C-1,4Bis-GNR nanoassemblies were employed to deliver expression vectors that express shRNA ("shRNA plasmid") against firefly luciferase gene to knock down expression of the protein constitutively expressed in prostate cancer cells. The role of hydrodynamic size and zeta potential in determining nanoassembly mediated luciferase silencing was investigated. Finally, the theranostic potential of 1,4C-1,4Bis-GNR nanoassemblies was demonstrated using live cell two-photon induced luminescence bioimaging. Our results indicate that poly(aminoether)-GNR nanoassemblies are a promising theranostic platform for delivery of therapeutic payloads capable of simultaneous gene silencing and bioimaging.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (GNRs) have emerged as promising nanomaterials for biosensing, imaging, photothermal treatment, and therapeutic delivery for several diseases, including cancer. We have generated poly(amino ether)-functionalized gold nanorods (PAE-GNRs) using a layer-by-layer deposition approach; polymers from a poly(amino ether) library recently synthesized in our laboratory were employed to generate the PAE-GNR assemblies. PAE-GNR assemblies demonstrate long-term colloidal stability as well as the capacity to bind plasmid DNA by means of electrostatic interactions. Sub-toxic concentrations of PAE-GNRs were employed to deliver plasmid DNA to prostate cancer cells in vitro. PAE-GNRs generated using 1,4C-1,4Bis, a cationic polymer from our laboratory demonstrated significantly higher transgene expression and exhibited lower cytotoxicities when compared to similar assemblies generated using 25 kDa poly(ethylene imine) (PEI25k-GNRs), a current standard for polymer-mediated gene delivery. The roles of polyelectrolyte chemistry and zeta-potential in determining transgene expression efficacies of PAE-GNR assemblies were investigated. Our results indicate that stable and effective PAE-GNR assemblies are a promising engineered platform for transgene delivery. PAE-GNRs also have the potential to be used simultaneously for photothermal ablation, photothermally enhanced drug and gene delivery, and biological imaging, thus making them a powerful theranostic platform.

Abstract
Model protein feed mixtures containing three abundant and seven trace proteins at various concentrations were identified and employed in a series of displacement experiments. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry were used to evaluate the compositions of both the feed mixtures and effluent fractions from the displacement experiments. The results demonstrated that trace proteins were focused at the boundaries between the abundant solutes where they were enriched and concentrated. For many of the multicomponent feed mixtures, mass spectrometry analyses of the displacement column effluent fractions resulted in the identification of trace proteins that were not detectable in the feed. In addition, the use of minimal or no salt in the carrier solutions enabled the analysis of displacement fractions by direct infusion mass spectrometry. These results are significant in that they indicate that while the presence of abundant proteins can often be problematic for the detection of trace components, displacement chromatography may be able to employ these abundant proteins to focus trace proteins in the displacement train, thus facilitating detection.

Abstract
We describe the parallel synthesis and in vitro evaluation of a cationic polymer library for the discovery of nonviral gene delivery vectors. The library was synthesized based on the ring-opening polymerization reaction between epoxide groups of diglycidyl ethers and the amines of (poly)amines. Parallel screening of soluble library constituents led to the identification of lead polymers with high DNA-binding efficacies. Transfection efficacies of lead polymers were evaluated using PC3-PSMA human prostate cancer cells and murine osteoblasts in the absence and presence of serum. In vitro experiments resulted in the identification of a candidate polymer that demonstrated significantly higher transfection efficacies and lower cytotoxicities than poly(ethyleneimine) (pEI), the current standard for polymeric transfection agents. In addition, polymers that demonstrated moderately higher and comparable transfection efficacies with respect to pEI were also identified. Our results demonstrate that high-throughput synthesis and screening of polymers is a powerful approach for the identification of novel nonviral gene delivery agents.

Abstract
One of the major impediments to the implementation of displacement chromatography for the purification of biomolecules is the need to collect fractions from the column effluent for time-consuming offline analysis. The ability to employ direct online monitoring of displacement chromatography would have significant implications for applications ranging from analytical to preparative bioseparations. To this end, a set of novel fluorescent displacers were rationally designed using known chemically selective displacers as a template. Fluorescent cores were functionalized with different charge moieties, creating a homologous library of displacers. These compounds were then tested on two protein pairs, alpha-chymotrypsinogen A/ribonuclease A and cytochrome c/lysozyme, using batch and column displacement experiments. Of the synthesized displacers, two were found to be highly selective while one was determined to be a high-affinity displacer. Column displacements using one of the selective displacers yielded complete separation of both protein pairs while facilitating direct online detection using UV and fluorescence detection. Saturation transfer difference NMR was also carried out to investigate the binding of the fluorescent displacers to proteins. The results indicated a selective binding between the selective displacers and alpha-chymotrypsinogen A, while no binding was observed for ribonuclease A, confirming that protein-displacer binding is responsible for the selectivity in these systems. This work demonstrates the utility of fluorescent displacers to enable online monitoring of displacer breakthroughs while also acting as efficient displacers for protein purification.

Abstract
We describe an approach that uses surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) for the high-throughput screening of ligands for use in displacement and affinity chromatographic processes. We identified a set of commercially available organic amines and allowed them to react with SAMs presenting interchain carboxylic anhydride groups; the resulting surfaces presented ligands of interest in a background of carboxylic acid groups. We used SPR spectroscopy to determine the extent of adsorption of two model proteinslysozyme and cytochrome conto these "multimodal" surfaces and to select promising "affinity" ligands for further characterization. The attachment of selected ligands to UltraLink Biosupport resulted in beads with a significantly greater affinity for lysozyme than for cytochrome c that would be suitable for use in affinity chromatographic processes. Furthermore, we also used the screens to design "affinity displacers"small molecules that selectively retain lysozyme on chromatographic resins, while displacing cytochrome c. The combination of SPR spectroscopy and SAMs represents a powerful technique for identifying novel ligands that enable the purification of complex protein mixtures.

Abstract
We describe an affinity-based strategy for designing selective protein displacers for the chromatographic purification of proteins. To design a displacer that is selective for a target protein, we attached a component with affinity for the target protein to a resin-binding component; we then tested the ability of such displacers to selectively retain the target protein on a resin relative to another protein having a similar retention time. In particular, we synthesized displacers based on biotin, which selectively retained avidin as compared to aprotinin on SP Sepharose high performance resin. In addition, we have extended this approach to develop an affinity-peptide-based displacer that discriminates between lysozyme and cytochrome c. Here, a selective displacer was designed from a lysozyme-binding peptide that had been identified and optimized previously using phage-display technology. Our results suggest a general strategy for designing highly selective affinity-based displacers by identifying molecules (e.g., peptides) that bind to a protein of interest and using an appropriate linker to attach these molecules to a moiety that binds to the stationary phase.

Abstract
This communication describes a synthetic approach toward the amplification of the moderate DNA-binding affinities of protoberberine alkaloids. Specifically, three protoberberine derivatives bearing two to six primary amino groups at the 3- and 9-positions of protoberberine were synthesized and characterized by NMR ((1)H and (13)C) and HRMS. Studies on their affinities toward calf thymus (CT) DNA by ethidium bromide (EB) displacement and spectrophotometric titration experiments indicate that these polyamino protoberberines show more than 10(3)-fold enhanced DNA-binding affinities relative to palmatine and thus are exploitable as strong DNA-binders.

Abstract
A comparative study on the intercalating binding of sanguinarine, chelerythrine, and nitidine with CT DNA, poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC), poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT), and seven sequence-designed double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides has been performed using fluorometric and spectrophotometric techniques, aiming at providing insights into their sequence selectivity for DNA-binding. The results show that both sanguinarine and nitidine bind preferentially to DNA containing alternating GC base pairs [d(TGCGCA)(2)], while chelerythrine exhibits quite distinct sequence selectivity from sanguinarine, which shows a high specificity for DNA containing contiguous GC base pairs [5'-TGGGGA-3'/3'-ACCCCT-5'].

Abstract
Six novel berberine dimers (3a-f) were synthesized in 37-84% yield from the reaction of berberrubine (2) with dihaloalkanes of varying lengths from two to seven carbons. Their interactions with calf thymus (CT) DNA and three double helical oligodeoxynucleotides, d(AAGAATTCTT)2, d(AAGCATGCTT)2, and d(TAAGAATTCTTA)2, were investigated by means of fluorometric titration and ethidium bromide (EB) displacement experiments. Compared with the monomeric parent berberine (1), these dimers' DNA-binding affinities increased up to approximately 100-fold, suggesting a cooperative interaction of the two berberine subunits in the molecules. Furthermore, these dimers linked by different spacers show a prominent structure-activity relationship when bound with oligodeoxynucleotides. The relative binding affinities are in the order of 3b>3a>3c>3d>3e>3f with d(AAGAATTCTT)2 and d(TAAGAATTCTTA)2, and 3b>3c>3a>3d>3e>3f with d(AAGCATGCTT)2. Dimer 3b, linked with a propyl chain, exhibits the highest binding affinity. This suggests that a propyl chain may be the most suitable spacer to bridge the two berberine units for DNA binding. Spectrophotometric titration and competitive EB displacement of berberine (1) and dimer 3b indicate that both berberine and its dimers form intercalating complexes with duplex DNA. A larger redshift, a stronger hypochromic effect, and a much higher EB displacement ratio, observed in 3b, indicate that the dimer is in more intimate contact with DNA than berberine. In addition, no obvious binding of canadine (4), a hydrogenated product of berberine, with CT DNA was observed, suggesting critical roles of the quaternary ammonium cation and planar structure in the DNA-binding of berberine.
