Abstract
It is well established that oxaliplatin, one of the three Pt(II) anticancer drugs approved worldwide, and phenanthriplatin, an important preclinical monofunctional Pt(II) anticancer drug, possess a different mode of action from that of cisplatin and carboplatin, namely, the induction of nucleolar stress. The exact mechanisms that lead to Pt-induced nucleolar stress are, however, still poorly understood. As such, studies aimed at better understanding the biological targets of both oxaliplatin and phenanthriplatin are urgently needed to expand our understanding of Pt-induced nucleolar stress and guide the future design of Pt chemotherapeutics. One approach that has seen great success in the past is the use of Pt-click complexes to study the biological targets of Pt drugs. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of the first examples of click-capable phenanthriplatin complexes. Furthermore, through monitoring the relocalization of nucleolar proteins, RNA transcription levels, and DNA damage repair biomarker γH2AX, and by investigating their in vitro cytotoxicity, we show that these complexes successfully mimic the cellular responses observed for phenanthriplatin treatment in the same experiments. The click-capable phenanthriplatin derivatives described here expand the existing library of Pt-click complexes. Significantly they are suitable for studying nucleolar stress mechanisms and further elucidating the biological targets of Pt complexes.

RSC Chem Biol 2023; 4:785-793. [PMID: 37799581 PMCID: PMC10549245 DOI: 10.1039/d3cb00055a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Pt(ii) chemotherapeutic complexes have been used as predominant anticancer drugs for nearly fifty years. Currently there are three FDA-approved chemotherapeutic Pt(ii) complexes: cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin. Until recently, it was believed that all three complexes induced cellular apoptosis through the DNA damage response pathway. Studies within the last decade, however, suggest that oxaliplatin may instead induce cell death through a unique nucleolar stress pathway. Pt(ii)-induced nucleolar stress is not well understood and further investigation of this pathway may provide both basic knowledge about nucleolar stress as well as insight for more tunable Pt(ii) chemotherapeutics. Through a previous structure-function analysis, it was determined that nucleolar stress induction is highly sensitive to modifications at the 4-position of the 1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DACH) ring of oxaliplatin. Specifically, more flexible and less rigid substituents (methyl, ethyl, propyl) induce nucleolar stress, while more rigid and bulkier substituents (isopropyl, acetamide) do not. These findings suggest that a click-capable functional group can be installed at the 4-position of the DACH ring while still inducing nucleolar stress. Herein, we report novel click-capable azide-modified oxaliplatin mimics that cause nucleolar stress. Through NPM1 relocalization, fibrillarin redistribution, and γH2AX studies, key differences have been identified between previously studied click-capable cisplatin mimics and these novel click-capable oxaliplatin mimics. These complexes provide new tools to identify cellular targets and localization through post-treatment Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition and may help to better understand Pt(ii)-induced nucleolar stress. To our knowledge, these are the first reported oxaliplatin mimics to include an azide handle, and cis-[(1R,2R,4S) 4-methylazido-1,2-cyclohexanediamine]dichlorido platinum(ii) is the first azide-functionalized oxaliplatin derivative to induce nucleolar stress.

Abstract
An Fe(II) complex with DPA-Bpy (DPA-Bpy = N,N-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)-2,20-bipyridine-6 -methanamine) as the ligand was synthesized and characterized to mimic bleomycin. The binding constants (Kb) of the complex with calf thymus DNA and human serum albumin (HSA) were quantitatively evaluated using fluorescence spectroscopy, with Kb as 5.53×105 and 2.40×104 M−1, respectively; the number of the average binding site (n) is close to 1. The thermodynamic analyses suggested that the electrostatic interactions exist between the complex and DNA, and the hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals force exist for the complex and HSA. The Fe complex exhibits cleavage ability toward pBR322 DNA, and the crystal structure of the HSA Fe complex adduct at 2.4 Å resolution clearly shows that His288 serves as the axial ligand of the Fe center complexed with a pentadentate DPA-Bpy ligand. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of the complex was evaluated against HeLa cells. Both the Fe complex and HSA Fe complex adduct show obvious effect on cell proliferation with an IC50 of 1.18 and 0.82 μM, respectively; they induced cell apoptosis and arrested cell cycles at S phase. This study provides insight into the plausible mechanism underlying their metabolism and pharmacological activity.

Abstract
Post-transcriptional (PtscM) and post-translational (PtrnM) modifications of nucleotides and amino acids are covalent modifications able to change physio-chemical properties of RNAs and proteins. In the ribosome, the adequate assembly of rRNAs and ribosomal protein subunits in the nucleolus ensures suitable translational activity, with protein synthesis tuned according to intracellular demands of energy production, replication, proliferation, and growth. Disruption in the regulatory control of PtscM and PtrnM can impair ribosome biogenesis and ribosome function. Ribosomal impairment may, in turn, impact the synthesis of proteins engaged in functions as varied as telomere maintenance, apoptosis, and DNA repair, as well as intersect with mitochondria and telomerase activity. These cellular processes often malfunction in carcinogenesis and senescence. Here we discuss regulatory mechanisms of PtscMs and PtrnMs on ribosomal function. We also address chemical modification in rRNAs and their impacts on cellular metabolism, replication control, and senescence. Further, we highlight similarities and differences of PtscMs and PtrnMs in ribosomal intermediates during aging and carcinogenesis. Understanding these regulatory mechanisms may uncover critical steps for the development of more efficient oncologic and anti-aging therapies.

Abstract
Limitations of clinical platinum(II) therapeutics include systemic toxicity and inherent resistance. Modern approaches, therefore, seek new ways to deliver active platinum(II) to discrete nucleic acid targets. In the field of antigene therapy, triplex‐forming oligonucleotides (TFOs) have attracted interest for their ability to specifically recognise extended duplex DNA targets. Here, we report a click chemistry based approach that combines alkyne‐modified TFOs with azide‐bearing cis‐platinum(II) complexes—based on cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and carboplatin motifs—to generate a library of PtII‐TFO hybrids. These constructs can be assembled modularly and enable directed platinum(II) crosslinking to purine nucleobases on the target sequence under the guidance of the TFO. By covalently incorporating modifications of thiazole orange—a known DNA‐intercalating fluorophore—into PtII‐TFOs constructs, enhanced target binding and discrimination between target and off‐target sequences was achieved.

Abstract
Click chemistry is fundamentally important to medicinal chemistry and chemical biology. It represents a powerful and versatile tool, which can be exploited to develop novel Pt-based anticancer drugs and to better understand the biological effects of Pt-based anticancer drugs at a cellular level. Innovative azide-alkyne cycloaddition-based approaches are being used to functionalise Pt-based complexes with biomolecules to enhance tumour targeting. Valuable information in relation to the mechanisms of action and resistance of Pt-based drugs is also being revealed through click-based detection, isolation and tracking of Pt drug surrogates in biological and cellular environments. Although less well-explored, inorganic Pt-click reactions enable synthesis of novel (potentially multimetallic) Pt complexes and provide plausible routes to introduce functional groups and monitoring Pt-azido drug localisation.

Abstract
Identifying the interactions of small molecules with biomolecules in complex cellular environments is a significant challenge. As one important example, despite being widely used for decades, much is still not understood regarding the cellular targets of Pt(II)-based anticancer drugs. In this study we introduce a novel method for isolation of Pt(II)-bound biomolecules using a DNA hybridization pull-down approach. Using a modified Pt reagent, click-ligation of a DNA oligonucleotide to both a Pt(II)-bound DNA hairpin and bovine serum albumin (BSA) are demonstrated. Subsequent hybridization to a biotin-labeled oligonucleotide allows for efficient isolation of Pt(II)-bound species by streptavidin pulldown. We also find that platinated bovine serum albumin readily crosslinks to DNA in the absence of click ligation, and that a fraction of BSA-bound Pt(II) can transfer to DNA over time. Interestingly, in in vitro studies, fragmented mammalian DNA that is crosslinked to BSA through Pt(II) exhibits significantly increased protection from degradation by serum nucleases.

Abstract
Pt(II)-based anticancer drugs are widely used in the treatment of a variety of cancers, but their clinical efficacy is hindered by undesirable side effects and resistance. While much research has focused on Pt(II) drug interactions with DNA, there is increasing interest in proteins as alternative targets and contributors to cytotoxic and resistance mechanisms. Here, we describe a chemical proteomic method for isolation and identification of cellular protein targets of platinum compounds using Pt(II) reagents that have been modified for participation in the 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition "click" reaction. Using this method to visualize and enrich for targets, we identified 152 proteins in Pt(II)-treated Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Of interest was the identification of multiple proteins involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, which has been proposed to be an important cytoplasmic mediator of apoptosis in response to cisplatin treatment. Consistent with possible direct targeting of this pathway, the ER stress response was confirmed to be induced in Pt(II)-treated yeast along with in vitro Pt(II)-inhibition of one of the identified proteins, protein disulfide isomerase.

Abstract
The platinum drugs, cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin, prevail in the treatment of cancer, but new platinum agents have been very slow to enter the clinic. Recently, however, there has been a surge of activity, based on a great deal of mechanistic information, aimed at developing nonclassical platinum complexes that operate via mechanisms of action distinct from those of the approved drugs. The use of nanodelivery devices has also grown, and many different strategies have been explored to incorporate platinum warheads into nanomedicine constructs. In this Review, we discuss these efforts to create the next generation of platinum anticancer drugs. The introduction provides the reader with a brief overview of the use, development, and mechanism of action of the approved platinum drugs to provide the context in which more recent research has flourished. We then describe approaches that explore nonclassical platinum(II) complexes with trans geometry or with a monofunctional coordination mode, polynuclear platinum(II) compounds, platinum(IV) prodrugs, dual-threat agents, and photoactivatable platinum(IV) complexes. Nanoparticles designed to deliver platinum(IV) complexes will also be discussed, including carbon nanotubes, carbon nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, quantum dots, upconversion nanoparticles, and polymeric micelles. Additional nanoformulations, including supramolecular self-assembled structures, proteins, peptides, metal-organic frameworks, and coordination polymers, will then be described. Finally, the significant clinical progress made by nanoparticle formulations of platinum(II) agents will be reviewed. We anticipate that such a synthesis of disparate research efforts will not only help to generate new drug development ideas and strategies, but also will reflect our optimism that the next generation of approved platinum cancer drugs is about to arrive.

Abstract
To enhance the functionality of Pt-based reagents, several strategies have been developed that utilize Pt compounds modified with small, reactive handles. This Account encapsulates work done by us and other groups regarding the use of Pt(II) compounds with reactive handles for subsequent elaboration with fluorophores or other functional moieties. Described strategies include the incorporation of substituents for well-known condensation or nucleophilic displacement-type reactions and their use, for example, to tether spectroscopic handles to Pt reagents for in vivo investigation. Other chief uses of displacement-type reactions have included tethering various small molecules exhibiting pharmacological activity directly to Pt, thus adding synergistic effects. Click chemistry-based ligation techniques have also been applied, primarily with azide- and alkyne-appended Pt complexes. Orthogonally reactive click chemistry reactions have proven invaluable when more traditional nucleophilic displacement reactions induce side-reactivity with the Pt center or when systematic functionalization of a larger number of Pt complexes is desired. Additionally, a diverse assortment of Pt-fluorophore conjugates have been tethered via click chemistry conjugation. In addition to providing a convenient synthetic path for diversifying Pt compounds, the use of click-capable Pt complexes has proved a powerful strategy for postbinding covalent modification and detection with fluorescent probes. This strategy bypasses undesirable influences of the fluorophore camouflaged as reactivity due to Pt that may be present when detecting preattached Pt-fluorophore conjugates. Using postbinding strategies, Pt reagent distributions in HeLa and lung carcinoma (NCI-H460) cell cultures were observed with two different azide-modified Pt compounds, a monofunctional Pt(II)-acridine type and a difunctional Pt(II)-neutral complex. In addition, cellular distribution was observed with an alkyne-appended difunctional Pt(II)-neutral complex analogous in structure to the aforementioned difunctional azide-Pt(II) reagent. In all cases, significant accumulation of Pt in the nucleolus of cells was observed, in addition to broader localization in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell. Using the same strategy of postbinding click modification with fluorescent probes, Pt adducts were detected and roughly quantified on rRNA and tRNA from Pt-treated Saccharomyces cerevisiae; rRNA adducts were found to be relatively long-lived and not targeted for immediate degradation. Finally, the utility and feasibility of the alkyne-appended Pt(II) compound has been further demonstrated with a turn-on fluorophore, dansyl azide, in fluorescent detection of DNA in vitro. In all, these modifications utilizing reactive handles have allowed for the diversification of new Pt reagents, as well as providing cellular localization information on the modified Pt compounds.

Abstract
Tracking of Pt(II) complexes is of crucial importance toward understanding Pt interactions with cellular biomolecules. Post-treatment fluorescent labeling of functionalized Pt(II)-based agents using the bioorthogonal Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction has recently been reported as a promising approach. Here we describe an azide-functionalized Pt(II) complex, cis-[Pt(2-azidobutyl)amido-1,3-propanediamine)Cl2] (1), containing the cis geometry and difunctional reactivity of cisplatin, and present a comparative study with its previously described alkyne-functionalized congener. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals a dramatic change in the solid-state arrangement with exchange of the alkyne for an azide moiety wherein 1 is dominated by a pseudo-chain of Pt-Pt dimers and antiparallel alignment of the azide substituents, in comparison with a circular arrangement supported by CH/π(C≡C) interactions in the alkyne version. In vitro studies indicate similar DNA binding and click reactivity of both congeners observed by fluorescent labeling. Interestingly, complex 1 shows in vitro enhanced click reactivity in comparison to a previously reported azide-appended Pt(II) complex. Despite their similar behavior in vitro, preliminary in cellulo HeLa studies indicate a superior imaging potential of azide-functionalized 1. Post-treatment fluorescent labeling of 1 observed by confocal fluorescence microscopy shows nuclear and intense nucleolar localization. These results demonstrate the potential of 1 in different cell line localization studies and for future isolation and purification of Pt-bound targets.

Abstract
RNA has become an increasingly important target for therapeutic interventions and for chemical probes that dissect and manipulate its cellular function. Emerging targets include human RNAs that have been shown to directly cause cancer, metabolic disorders, and genetic disease. In this review, we describe various routes to obtain bioactive compounds that target RNA, with a particular emphasis on the development of small molecules. We use these cases to describe approaches that are being developed for target validation, which include target-directed cleavage, classic pull-down experiments, and covalent cross-linking. Thus, tools are available to design small molecules to target RNA and to identify the cellular RNAs that are their targets.
