Zhang Y, Ballesteros ME, Schöneich C. Photo-induced site-specific oxidative fragmentation of IgG1 mediated by iron(III)-containing histidine buffer: Mechanistic studies and excipient effects. Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2023; 190:121-130. [PMID: 37482364 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2023.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
Fragmentation may compromise the clinical efficacy and safety profile of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). We recently reported that Fe(III)-containing histidine (His) buffer mediates site-specific mAb fragmentation within the Fc domain when exposed to visible light (Y. Zhang and C. Schöneich, Mol. Pharm. 2023, 20, 650-662). Here, we show that this fragmentation proceeds even more efficiently under near-UV light. Several formulation strategies were applied in an attempt to reduce the photo-induced fragmentation. In solution formulations, the fragmentation can be mitigated by reducing the concentration of His buffer, adding Fe(III)-chelating agents, and replacing His with other amino acids. Fragmentation can be almost completely inhibited by formulating the protein in the lyophilized state. Mechanistically, His plays a critical role in the fragmentation process, likely due to its affinity for Fe(II), driving a photo-redox reaction towards product formation.

METALLOMICS : INTEGRATED BIOMETAL SCIENCE 2022; 14:6650223.

Abstract
Organic matter regulates the availability of important trace elements in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems by acting as a source and container for microbes. To overcome the limitation of trace elements, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, for example, release low-molecular-weight chelators (metallophores), which scavenge the essential cofactors of the nitrogenase, iron and molybdenum, via complexation and subsequent uptake. The formation of metallophores is triggered by limiting conditions, which must be replicated in the laboratory in order to study metallophores as a mediator in metal cycling. While EDTA-based buffer systems for metal cations are well established, there is limited knowledge regarding the buffering of oxoanions such as molybdate in a bacterial growth medium. To mimic the availability of molybdenum in nature under laboratory conditions, this study created a Mo-buffer system for bacterial growth media of the model organisms Azotobacter vinelandii and Frankia sp. CH37. We investigated selected hydroxypyridinones (HPs) as potential molybdenum-chelating agents, determining the amount required for efficient molybdenum complexation by calculating speciation plots of the various candidate complexes in artificial growth media at various pH values. The Mo-maltol system was identified as an ideal, non-toxic molybdenum-buffer system. In the presence of the Mo-maltol system, the growth of Frankia sp. was limited under diazotrophic conditions, whereas A. vinelandii could acquire molybdenum through the release of protochelin and subsequent molybdenum uptake. The study paves the way for unravelling molybdenum recruitment and homeostasis under limiting conditions in bacteria.

Abstract
Hydroxypyridinones (HPs) are recognized as excellent chemical tools for engineering a diversity of metal chelating agents, with high affinity for hard metal ions, exhibiting a broad range of activities and applications, namely in medical, biological and environmental contexts. They are easily made and functionalizable towards the tuning of their pharmacokinetic properties or the improving of their metal complex thermodynamic stabilities. In this review, an analysis of the recently published works on hydroxypyridinone-based ligands, that have been mostly addressed for environmental applications, namely for remediation of hard metal ion ecotoxicity in living beings and other biological matrices is carried out. In particular, herein the most recent developments in the design of new chelating systems, from bidentate mono-HP to polydentate multi-HP derivatives, with a structural diversity of soluble or solid-supported backbones are outlined. Along with the ligand design, an analysis of the relationship between their structures and activities is presented and discussed, namely associated with the metal affinity and the thermodynamic stability of the corresponding metal complexes.

Abstract
Hydroxypyridinones (HOPOs) have been used in the chelation therapy of iron and actinide metals. Their application in metal-based radiopharmaceuticals has also been increasing in recent years. This review article focuses on how multidentate HOPOs can be used in targeted radiometal-based diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. The general structure of radiometal-based targeted radiopharmaceuticals, a brief description of siderophores, the basic structure and properties of bidentate HOPO, some representative HOPO multidentate chelating agents, radiopharmaceuticals based on HOPO multidentate bifunctional chelators for gallium-68, thorium-227 and zirconium-89, as well as the future prospects of HOPO multidentate bifunctional chelators in other metal-based radiopharmaceuticals are described and discussed in turn. The HOPO metal-based radiopharmaceuticals that have shown good prospects in clinical and preclinical studies are gallium-68, thorium-227 and zirconium-89 radiopharmaceuticals. We expect HOPO multidentate bifunctional chelators to be a very promising platform for building novel targeted radiometal-based diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Two water soluble gallium complexes described as [Ga(III)LCl], where L is the deprotonated form of N-2-hydroxybenzyl aspartic acid derivatives, were synthesized and characterized by (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, FT-IR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The 2-(5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzylamino)succinic acid derivative (GS2) has been found to be a promising anticancer drug candidate. This compound was found to be more cytotoxic against human breast carcinoma MDA-MB231 and fibrosarcoma HT-1080 cell lines than the unsubstituted derivative and GaCl3. GS2 was able to induce apoptosis through downregulation of AKT phosphorylation, G2M arrest in cell cycle, and caspase 3/7 pathway. This gallium complex was found to induce an increase in mitochondrial ROS level in HT-1080 cells but not in MDA-MB231 cells. This suggests that the mechanism of action of GS2 would not be mediated by the drug-induced oxidative stress but probably by directly and indirectly inhibiting the AKT cell-signaling pathway.

Abstract
Although iron is one of the most important metal ions for living organisms, it becomes toxic when in excess or misplaced. This review presents a glance at representative examples of hydroxypyridinone-based chelators, which have been recently developed as potential clinically useful drugs for metal overload diseases, mostly associated with excess of iron but also other hard metal-ions. It also includes a detailed discussion on the factors assisting chelator design strategy toward fulfillment of the most relevant biochemical properties of hydroxypyridinone chelators, highlighting structure-activity relationships and a variety of potential clinical applications, beyond chelatotherapy. This study appears as a response to the growing interest on metal chelation therapy and opens new perspectives of possible applications in future medicine.

Abstract
Synthetic approaches to mixed ligand chelators on readily available t-butylphenol-formaldehyde oligomer, PFO, scaffolds were examined. In a promising approach, tris and tetraphenol oligomers were selectively mono or di protected using t-butyldiphenyl silyl chloride. The utility of these protected intermediates to prepare representative mixed PFO chelators, carrying ligands such as hydroxamic acid, 3,2-hydroxypyridinones and others was then demonstrated. The introduction of the ligand tethers onto the phenolic scaffold can be done sequentially under relatively mild conditions that tolerate the presence of other sensitive ligand groups. The differential reactivity of the disilyl derivative 20b, allowed stepwise introduction of two different ligands on the internal phenolic positions. This enabled the introduction of three different ligand groups of choice onto the tetra phenol platform.

Abstract
The HOPO sulfonamide reagent, 3, was prepared from commercial 2,3-dihydroxypyridine in four steps in good yields. Sulfonamide 3 readily underwent selective alkylation with dibromides in the presence of base or could be coupled to alcohols using Mitsunobu conditions. The utility of this nucleophilic HOPO reagent was demonstrated by the synthesis some tris and tetraHOPO chelators. This approach for tethering HOPO ligands is unique and flexible as shown by the preparation of HOPO/iminocarboxylic acid chelator 17.

Abstract
The gallium(III) complex of a new tripodal 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinone (3,4-HP) chelator has been studied in terms of its physico-chemical and in vivo properties aimed at potential application as probe for nuclear imaging. In particular, based on spectrophotometric titrations, the hexa-coordinated (1:1) gallium complex appeared as the major species in a wide physiological acid-neutral pH range and its high stability (pGa=27.5) should avoid drug-induced toxicity resulting from Ga(III) accumulation in tissues due to processes of transmetallation with endogenenous ligands or demetallation. A multinuclear ((1)H and (71)Ga) NMR study gave some insights into the structure and dynamics of the gallium(III) chelate in solution, which are consistent with the tris-(3,4-HP) coordination and an eventual pseudo-octahedral geometry. Biodistribution and scintigraphic studies of the (67)Ga(III) labelled chelate, performed in Wistar rats, confirmed the in vivo stability of the radiolabelled complex, its non interaction with blood proteins and its quick renal clearance. These results indicate good perspectives for potential application of extrafunctionalized analogues in radiodiagnostic techniques.
