Micro- and Nanoscale Spectroscopic Investigations of Threonine Influence on the Corrosion Process of the Modified Fe Surface by Cu Nanoparticles. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 13:E4482. [PMID: 33050390 PMCID: PMC7600280 DOI: 10.3390/ma13204482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 09/28/2020] [Accepted: 10/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
The work presents a comprehensive vibrational analysis of the process of adsorption of threonine (Thr) onto an Fe surface with deposited Cu nanoparticles (NPs) (of about 4-5 nm in size) in a corrosive environment. The application of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRA) provides the opportunity for detailed description of adsorption geometry of amino acid onto a metal surface. The combination of conventional infrared spectroscopy (IR) with atomic force microscopy (AFM) resulted in a nano-SEIRA technique which made it possible to provide a precise description of adsorbate binding to the metal surface. The studies presented confirmed that there is a very good correlation between the spectra recorded by the SERS, SEIRA, and nano-SEIRA techniques. Threonine significantly influenced the process of corrosion of the investigated surface due to the existing strong interaction between the protonated amine and carboxylate groups and the CuNPs deposited onto the Fe surface. In addition, the application of two polarization modulations (s and p) in nano-SEIRA allows subtle changes to be observed in the molecule geometry upon adsorption, with the carboxylate group of Thr being almost horizontally oriented onto the metal surface; whereas the amine group that contains nitrogen is oriented perpendicular to this surface.

Abstract
The surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of blood serum was investigated to differentiate between prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in males with a prostate-specific antigen level of 4-10 ng/mL, so as to reduce unnecessary biopsies. A total of 240 SERS spectra from blood serum were acquired from 40 PCa subjects and 40 BPH subjects who had all received prostate biopsies and were given a pathological diagnosis. Multivariate statistical techniques, including principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) diagnostic algorithms, were used to analyze the spectra data of serum from patients in control (CTR), PCa and BPH groups; results offered a sensitivity of 97.5%, a specificity of 100.0%, a precision of 100.0% and an accuracy of 99.2% for CTR; a sensitivity of 90.0%, a specificity of 97.5%, a precision of 94.7% and an accuracy of 98.3% for BPH; a sensitivity of 95.0%, a specificity of 93.8%, a precision of 88.4% and an accuracy of 94.2% for PCa. Similarly, this technique can significantly differentiate low- and high-risk PCa with an accuracy of 92.3%, a specificity of 95% and a sensitivity of 89.5%. The results suggest that analyzing blood serum using SERS combined with PCA-LDA diagnostic algorithms is a promising clinical tool for PCa diagnosis and assessment.

Abstract
RATIONALE The increased use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for various biological applications, and over-expression of various peptide receptors in different tumors/cancer cells, necessitate the need for dedicated investigations on the intrinsic binding ability of Ag with various biologically important peptides for better understanding of AgNPs-peptide interactions and for the future development of contrasting agents as well as drugs for imaging/biomedical applications. METHODS The [M+(Ag)n ](+) complexes are prepared and characterized using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS). RESULTS Silver complexes of the peptides [M+(Ag)n ](+) , where M = oxytocin, arg(8) -vasopressin, bradykinin, bombesin, somatostatin, and neurotensin, have been investigated for their intrinsic Ag(+) -binding ability. Unusual binding of up to seven Ag(+) with these small peptides is observed. The mass spectra show n = 1-5 for bombesin and somatostatin, n = 1-6 for bradykinin and arg(8) -vasopressin, and n = 1-7 for oxytocin and neurotensin. In addition, oxytocin and arg(8) -vasopressin show the formation of dimers and their complexes [M2 +(Ag)n ](+) with n = 1-8 and n = 1-5, respectively. The possible amino acid residues responsible for Ag(+) binding in each peptide have been identified on the basis of density functional theory (DFT)-calculated binding energy values of Ag(+) towards individual amino acids. CONCLUSIONS Mass spectrometric evidence indicates that the peptides, viz., oxytocin, arg(8) -vasopressin, bradykinin, bombesin, somatostatin, and neurotensin, show greater affinity for Ag(+) . Hence, they may be used as carriers for AgNPs in targeted drug delivery as well as an alternative for iodinated contrasting agents in dual energy X-ray imaging techniques. Radio-labeled Ag with these peptides can also be used in radio-pharmaceuticals for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
The tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS) spectra of bradykinin (BK) and its potent B2 BK receptor antagonists, [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5,8),l-Pip(7)]BK and [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5),d-Phe(7),l-Pip(8)]BK, approximately with a size of about 40 nm, adsorbed onto colloidal suspended Ag nanowires with diameter in the range of 350-500 nm and length of 2-50 μm were recorded. The metal surface plasmon resonance and morphology of the Ag nanowires were studied by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Briefly, it was shown that two C-terminal amino acids of BK and [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5,8),l-Pip(7)]BK are involved in the interaction with the colloidal suspended Ag nanowire surface, whereas three last amino acids of the [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5),d-Phe(7),l-Pip(8)]BK sequence attached the Ag surface. Thus, BK adsorbs on the colloidal suspended Ag nanowires mainly through the Phe(5/8) ring (tilted orientation) and the one oxygen atom of the carboxylate group and the H2N-C-NH-CH2- fragment of Arg(9). In the case of [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5,8),l-Pip(7)]BK, the Thi(8) ring (through the lone electron pair on the sulfur atom) and the both oxygen atoms of the carboxylate group and the amine group of Arg(9) mainly participated in the interaction with the Ag nanowire surface. For [d-Arg(0),Hyp(3),Thi(5),d-Phe(7),l-Pip(8)]BK, the d-Phe(7) ring, the Pip(8) ring, and the Arg(9) side-chain assisted in the peptide interaction with the Ag surface. The obtained results emphasize the importance of the C-terminal part of these peptides in the adsorption process onto the colloidal suspended Ag nanowires.
