Investigating bolalipids as solubilizing agents for poorly soluble drugs: Effects of alkyl chain length on solubilization and cytotoxicity. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 212:112369. [PMID: 35123195 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
Synthetic single-chain bolalipids with symmetrical headgroups have shown potential in various pharmaceutical applications, such as the stabilization of liposome bilayers. Despite their amphiphilic character, synthetic bolalipids have not yet been investigated for their suitability as solubilizing agents for poorly soluble drug compounds. In this study, three synthetic single-chain bolalipids with increasing alkyl chain lengths (C22, C24 and C26) were investigated. All three bolalipids were able to achieve an increased solubility of the model drug, mefenamic acid, by approximately 180% in a pH 7.4 buffer compared to only a 102-105% increase achieved by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or the non-ionic surfactant pegylated hydroxystearate (PEG-HS). Subsequently, interfacial activity of bolalipids and their ability to destabilize liposomal bilayers were investigated. The C22 bolalipid exhibited a consistently lower interfacial activity, which was consistent with its significantly lower cytotoxicity in the macrophage-like cell line, J774. A1, compared to C24 and C26 counterparts. The mean IC50 values of the bolalipids tested (0.035-0.093 mM) were approximately 4-100-fold lower than that of SDS (0.401 mM) or PEG-HS (0.922 mM), with the mechanism of toxicity linked to increased cell membrane permeability, as is expected for surfactants. In summary, evidence from this study shows that decreasing the length of the bolalipid alkyl linker from C26 to C22 resulted in a significantly decreased cytotoxicity with no loss in drug solubilization efficiency.

Abstract
The aim of present study was to investigate the anticancer mechanisms of 3,3'-diselenodipropionic acid (DSePA), a redox-active organodiselenide in human lung cancer cells. DSePA elicited a significant concentration and time-dependent cytotoxicity in human lung cancer cell line A549 than in normal WI38 cells. The cytotoxic effect of DSePA was preceded by an acute decrease in the level of basal reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a concurrent increase in levels of reducing equivalents (like GSH/GSSG and NADH/NAD) within cells. Further, a series of experiments were performed to measure the markers of intrinsic (Bax, cytochrome c and caspase-9), extrinsic (TNFR, FADR and caspase-8) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress (protein ubiquitylation, calcium flux, Bip, CHOP and caspase-12) pathways in DSePA treated cells. DSePA treatment significantly increased the levels of all the above markers. Moreover, DSePA did not alter the expression and phosphorylation (Ser15) of p53 but caused a significant damage to mitochondria. Pharmacological modulation of GSH level by BSO and NAC in DSePA treated cells led to partial abrogation and augmentation of cell kill respectively. This established the role of reductive stress as a trigger for the apoptosis induced by DSePA treatment. Finally, in vitro anticancer activity of DSePA was also corroborated by its in vivo efficacy of suppressing the growth of A549 derived xenograft tumor in SCID mice. In conclusion, above results suggest that DSePA induces apoptosis in a p53 independent manner by involving extrinsic and intrinsic pathways together with ER stress which can an interesting strategy for lung cancer therapy.

Abstract
Surface functionalization of mesoporous silica nanoparticles is important for their applications but fairly challenging using benzene-bridged organosilane as the precursor through the postsynthesis approach. Herein, we report an acid-catalysis approach for the postmodification of benzene-bridged organosilica onto the surface of large-pore mesoporous silica nanoparticles. By using HCl (∼1 M) as the acid catalyst in a tetrahydrofuran solvent, the self-assembly of the bridged organosilica precursor is avoided, while surface modification of mesoporous silica nanoparticles is promoted with controllable organic contents and retained large pore sizes. This strategy can also be applied to the postmodification of organosilica with end benzene groups. The strategy developed in this study is expected to be applied for the postmodification of other organosilica precursors with various functions.

Abstract
The use of aluminium has made significant impact in our life by virtue of its attractive properties. The lack of essentiality of aluminium in biosphere indicated that its accumulation above certain level is undesirous. Esculetin (6,7-dihydroxy coumarin) is an excellent aluminium ion chelator and the chelation interaction was studied by exploiting the absorption and fluorescence behavior of esculetin. In presence of aluminium ion, the absorption band of esculetin was shifted from 350 to 380 nm suggesting the possibility of complex formation. The fluorescence intensity of esculetin at 466 nm was significantly quenched in presence of aluminium ion. The fluorescence quenching was interpreted in terms of chelation-quenched fluorescence (CHQF) mechanism where the strong Lewis acid character of aluminium ion accepts electrons from the chelating catechol moiety of the excited esculetin. From the absorption and fluorescence changes the association constant was estimated in the order of 105 M-1. The association constant was further evaluated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and there was close agreement to that of obtained from spectroscopic studies. Form ITC studies, the binding enthalpy and binding entropy were estimated as -20.6 kcal/mol and -46.7 cal/mol/K respectively. The complex was less toxic compared to the individual complexing agents when studied in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Considering the present investigation, esculetin can be a probable molecule for chelation therapy where rapid complex formation ability of esculetin will help to reduce the aluminium accumulation through chelation and water soluble nature of the complex will help for faster elimination from the system.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Hispolon (HS), a bioactive polyphenol, and its derivatives such as hispolon monomethyl ether (HME), hispolon pyrazole (HP), and hispolon monomethyl ether pyrazole (HMEP) were evaluated for comparative toxicity and antigenotoxic effects. The stability of HS derivatives in biological matrices followed the order HS < HP ≈ HME < HMEP. The cytotoxicity analysis of HS derivatives indicated that HP and HMEP were less toxic than HS and HME, respectively, in both normal and tumor cell types. The mechanisms of toxicity of HS and HME involved inhibition of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) and/or induction of reductive stress. From the enzyme kinetic and docking studies, it was established that HS and HME interacted with the NADPH-binding domain of TrxR through electrostatic and hydrophobic bonds, resulting in inhibition of the catalytic activity. Subsequently, treatment with HS, HP, and HMEP at a nontoxic concentration of 10 μM in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells showed significant protection against radiation (4 Gy)-induced DNA damage as assessed by micronuclei and γ-H2AX assays. In conclusion, the above results suggested the importance of phenolic and diketo groups in controlling the stability and toxicity of HS derivatives. The pyrazole derivatives, HP and HMEP, may gain significance in the development of functional foods.
