Abstract
Polymer/surfactant composites are used in industry as an excipient for water-insoluble solutes. Such enhanced dissolution ability of composite media is related to the spontaneous formation of pre-micellar polymer surfactant aggregates (PS) at a magnitude of order lower than the surfactant critical micelle concentration in water. Combining electrochemical and spectroscopic studies, we investigate the microscopic interfacial structure (i.e., interface electrostatics and surface polarity) of PS formed in composite media. We establish that in a composite system, a mere change in the polymer concentration at a fixed surfactant concentration makes possible to regulate the counter-ion binding ability, surface potential, surface charge density, packing and surface polarity of the PS interface. Our study shows that the higher dissolution of water-insoluble nonionic solutes in composite media is driven by the depressing of surface charge density and polarity of the PS interface. A similar modulation of the PS interface acts as a barrier for the passive relocation of water-soluble charged solutes into the PS pseudo-phase. The time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy study allows us to underline the effect of surface charge modulation on the dynamical aspects of solutes at the PS interface.

Abstract
Targeting mismatched base pairs containing DNA using small molecules and exploring the underlying mechanism involved during the binding interactions is one of the fundamental aspects of drug design. These molecules in turn are used in nucleic acid targeted therapeutics and cancer diagnosis. In this work, we systematically delineate the binding of the anticancer drug, epirubicin hydrochloride (EPR) with 20-mer duplex DNA, having both natural nucleobase pairing and thermodynamically least stable non-Watson-Crick base pairing. From the thermal denaturation studies, we observed that EPR can remarkably enhance the thermal stability of cytosine-cytosine (CC) and cytosine-thymine (CT) mismatched (MM) DNA over other 20-mer duplex DNA. From steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry studies, we concluded that EPR binds strongly with the mismatched duplex DNA through the intercalation binding mode. The interaction of EPR and duplex DNA has also been monitored at a single molecular resolution using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Dynamic quantitates such as diffusion coefficients and hydrodynamic radii obtained from an FCS study along with association and dissociation rate constants estimated from intensity time trace analyses further substantiate the stronger binding affinity of EPR to the thermally less stable mismatched DNA, formed by the most discriminating nucleobase (viz. cytosine). Additionally, we have shown that EPR can be sequestered from nucleic acids using a mixed micellar system of an anionic surfactant and a triblock copolymer. From thermal denaturation studies and circular dichroism spectroscopy, we found that the extent of drug sequestration depends on the binding affinity of EPR to the duplex DNA, and this mixed micellar system can be employed for the removal of excess drug in the case of a drug overdose.

Abstract
The study of the interactions of drug molecules with genetic materials plays a key role underlying the development of new drugs for many life-threatening diseases in pharmaceutical industries. Understanding their fundamental base-specific and/or groove-binding interaction is crucial to target the genetic material with an external drug, which can pave the way to curing diseases related to the genetic material. Here, we studied the interaction of cryptolepine hydrate (CRYP) with RNA under physiological conditions knowing the antimalarial and anticancer activities of the drug. Our experiments explicitly demonstrate that CRYP interacts with the guanine- and adenine-rich region within the RNA duplex. The pivotal role of the hydrophobic interaction governing the interaction is substantiated by temperature-dependent isothermal titration calorimetry experiments and spectroscopic studies. Circular dichroism study underpins a principally intercalative mode of binding of CRYP with RNA. This interaction is found to be drastically affected in the presence of magnesium salt, which has a strong propensity to coordinate with RNA nucleobases, which can in turn modulate the interaction of the drug with RNA. The temperature-dependent calorimetric results substantiate the occurrence of entropy-enthalpy compensation, which enabled us to rule out the possibility of groove binding of the drug with RNA. Furthermore, our results also show the application of host-guest chemistry in sequestering the RNA-bound drug, which is crucial to the development of safer therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Polymer/surfactant composites have emerged as a subject of interest for their diverse applications. The improved solution properties in polymer/surfactant composites have been correlated to the formation of premicellar surfactant aggregate-polymer complexes (PS) at a surfactant concentration well below their critical micelle concentrations. Using different physicochemical and spectroscopic techniques here we have studied PS formed by hydroxypropyl cellulose, a nonionic-biocompatible polymer, and alkyl sulfate surfactants of different tail lengths. Our study shows that an increase in surfactant tail length eases PS formation and enhances PS-induced polymer cross-linking and, correspondingly, solution viscosity. PS consisting of shorter tail surfactants and those with longer tail surfactants differ microscopically as the former offers more polar interior than the later as evidenced from fluorescence measurements. Our study establishes that shorter tail surfactants intend to stay loosely packed inside PS and allow larger water penetration, which creates a relatively polar hydrophobic core compared to the PS with longer tail surfactants. The stronger packing of PS with longer tail surfactants is an outcome of favorable interaction between polymer polar groups and surfactant headgroups, which further creates strongly hydrogen-bonded water in their hydration shell.

Abstract
Long distance electron transfer (ET) between small ligands and DNA is a much studied phenomenon and is principally believed to occur through electron (or hole) hopping. Several studies have been carried out in aqueous environments while in real biological milieu the DNA molecules experience a more dense and heterogeneous environment containing otherwise indifferent molecular crowders. It is therefore expected that the ET could get modified in the presence of crowding agent and to investigate that we have made elaborate studies on steady state and time-resolved (picosecond (ps) and femtosecond (fs)-resolved) emission properties of a phenosafranine (PSF) intercalated to calf thymus (CT) DNA in the presence of ethylene glycol (EG) and polyethylene glycols (PEG) of different chain lengths (PEG 200, 400 and 1000). The emission of PSF gets considerably quenched when intercalated to DNA; the quenching is released when PEGs are added into it. The structural integrity of the CT DNA has been established using circular dichroism spectroscopy. CD measurements have evidenced only marginal changes in the DNA structure upon the addition of PEGs. ps-Resolved fluorescence measurements show significant decrease in the contribution of the DNA induced quenched time-constant of PSF upon the addition of PEGs, however, fs-resolved measurements show less noticeable changes in the time constants. Our study shows that the electron hopping rate through the guanine base in DNA core remains unaffected whereas the 'through space' electron transfer process does get affected in the presence of molecular crowders.

Abstract
Biocompatible surface-active ionic liquid (SAIL) was used first to study the deintercalation process of a well-known natural compound piperine (PIP) as an anticancer drug, obtained from PIP-calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) complex under controlled experimental conditions. In this study, we have been exploring the interaction of PIP in SAIL (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octyl sulfate ionic liquid ([C4mim][C8OSO3])), ctDNA, and deintercalation of PIP from the PIP-ctDNA complex through SAIL micelle using various spectroscopic techniques. Absorption, emission, and lifetime decay measurements provide strong evidence of the relocation of PIP molecules from ctDNA to SAIL micelle. Fluorescence quenching and steady-state fluorescence anisotropy were employed to examine the exact location of PIP in different media. Moreover, the surface tension technique was also employed to confirm the release of PIP molecules from the PIP-ctDNA complex in the presence of SAIL. Circular dichroism analysis suggested that SAIL micelle does not perturb the ctDNA structure, which supported the fact that SAIL micelle can be used as a safe vehicle for PIP. Overall, the study highlighted a novel strategy for deintercalation of drug using SAIL because the release of the drug can be controlled over a period by varying the concentration and composition of the SAIL.

Abstract
Noscapine (NOS) is efficient in inhibiting cellular proliferation and induces apoptosis in nonsmall cell, lung, breast, lymphatic, and prostate cancers. The micelle-assisted drug delivery is a well-known phenomenon; however, the proper mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we have shown a mechanistic approach for the delivery of NOS from sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles to calf thymus deoxyribose nucleic acid (ctDNA) base-pairs using various spectroscopic techniques. The absorption and emission spectroscopy results revealed that NOS interacts with the SDS micelle and resides in its hydrophobic core. Further, the intercalation of NOS from SDS micelles to ctDNA was also shown by these techniques. The anisotropy and quenching results further confirmed the relocation of NOS from SDS micelles to ctDNA. The CD analysis suggested that SDS micelles do not perturb the structure of ctDNA, which supported that SDS micelles can be used as a safe delivery vehicle for NOS. This work may be helpful for the invention of advanced micelle-based vehicles for the delivery of an anticancer drug to their specific target site.

Abstract
The capability of a surfactant to sequester a drug bound to plasma protein was investigated using steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopic techniques. Surfactants are known to denature protein, and hence are not suitable for the sequestration of a drug from protein. Herein, we show that the denaturing capacity of a surfactant is curtailed completely and its drug sequestration power is enhanced in the presence of biocompatible Pluronic micelles due to the formation of unique supramolecular assemblies. Further, our detailed studies indicate that the concentration of surfactant required for the sequestration of a drug is less than its critical micellar concentration (CMC). The extent of sequestration of drug by polymer-surfactant supramolecular assemblies can be tuned finely by controlling the concentration of surfactant. Detailed analysis showed that up to ∼85% sequestration of a drug from plasma protein could be achieved using a sub-CMC concentration of surfactant. Our results clearly show that controlled sequestration of a drug from plasma protein can be achieved with a reduction in the protein denaturing properties of surfactants.

Abstract
Mitoxantrone is a synthetic anticancer drug used clinically in the treatment of different types of cancer. It was developed as a doxorubicin analogue in a program to find drugs with improved antitumor activity and decreased cardiotoxicity compared with the anthracyclines. As the cell membrane is the first barrier encountered by anticancer drugs before reaching the DNA sites inside the cells and as surfactant micelles are known as simple model systems for biological membranes, the drugs-surfactant interaction has been the subject of great research interest. Further, quantitative understanding of the interactions of drugs with biomimicking structures like surfactant micelles may provide helpful information for the control of physicochemical properties and bioactivities of encapsulated drugs in order to design better delivery systems with possible biomedical applications. The present review describes the physicochemical aspects of the interactions between the anticancer drug mitoxantrone and different surfactants. Mitoxantrone-micelle binding constants, partitions coefficient of the drug between aqueous and micellar phases and the corresponding Gibbs free energy for the above processes, and the probable location of drug molecules in the micelles are discussed.

Abstract
In this paper, we report the lipoplex-mediated deintercalation of anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) from the DOX-DNA complex under controlled experimental conditions. We used three zwitterionic liposomes, namely, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC), and 2-oleoyl-1-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), which are widely different in their phase transition temperatures to form a lipoplex with calf thymus DNA in the presence of Ca(2+) ions. The study revealed that DPPC being in sol-gel phase was more effective in releasing the drug from the DOX-DNA complex compared with liposomes that remain in liquid crystalline phase (DMPC and POPC). The higher extent of drug release in the case of DPPC liposomes was attributed to the stronger lipoplex formation with DNA as compared with that of other liposomes. Owing to the relatively smaller head group area, the DPPC liposomes in their sol-gel phase can absorb a larger number of Ca(2+) ions and hence offer a strong electrostatic interaction with DNA. This interaction was confirmed by time-resolved anisotropy and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Apart from the electrostatic interaction, the possible hydrophobic interaction between the liposomes and DNA was also taken into account for the observed deintercalation. The successful uptake of drug molecules by liposomes from the drug-DNA complex in the post-release period was also confirmed using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM).

Abstract
Doxorubicin and nogalamycin are antitumor antibiotics that interact with DNA via intercalation and threading mechanisms, respectively. Because the importance of water, particularly its impact on entropy changes, has been established in other biological processes, we investigated the role of water in these two drug-DNA binding events. We used the osmotic stress method to calculate the number of water molecules exchanged (Δnwater), and isothermal titration calorimetry to measure Kbinding, ΔH, and ΔS for two synthetic DNAs, poly(dA·dT) and poly(dG·dC), and calf thymus DNA (CT DNA). For nogalamycin, Δnwater<0 for CT DNA and poly(dG·dC). For doxorubicin, Δnwater>0 for CT DNA and Δnwater<0 for poly(dG·dC). For poly(dA·dT), Δnwater~0 with both drugs. Net enthalpy changes were always negative, but net entropy changes depended on the drug. The effect of water exchange on the overall sign of entropy change appears to be smaller than other contributions.

Abstract
Biocompatible liposomes were used for the first time to study the deintercalation process of a prominent anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), from doxorubicin-intercalated DNA (DOX-DNA complex) under controlled experimental conditions. The study revealed that anionic liposomes (DMPG liposomes) appeared to be the most effective to bring in the highest percentage of drug release while cationic liposomes (DOTAP liposomes) scored the lowest percentage of release. The drug release was primarily attributed to the electrostatic interaction between liposomes and drug molecules. Apart from this interaction, changes in the hydrophobicity of the medium upon addition of liposomes to the DNA-drug solution accompanied by lipoplex formation between DNA and liposomes were also attributed to the observed deintercalation. The CD and the time-resolved rotational relaxation studies confirmed that lipoplex formation took place between liposomes and DNA owing to electrostatic interaction. The confocal study revealed that in the postrelease period, DOX binds with liposomes. The reason behind the binding is electrostatic interaction as well as the unique bilayer structure of liposomes which helps it to act as a "hydrophobic sink" for DOX. The study overall highlighted a novel strategy for deintercalation of drug using biocompatible liposomes, as the release of the drug can be controlled over a period of time by varying the concentration and composition of the liposomes.
