JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2024; 259:113010. [PMID: 39141981 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2024.113010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 07/20/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a clinically-approved cancer treatment that is based on production of cytotoxic reactive oxygen species to induce cell death. However, its efficiency depends on distribution of photosensitizer (PS) and depth of light penetration through the tissues. Tendency of pathological cancer tissues to exhibit lower pH than healthy tissues inspired us to explore dual-targeted pH-activatable photosensitizers based on tunable near-infrared (NIR) boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes. Our BODIPY PSs were designed to carry three main attributes: (i) biotin or cRGD peptide as an effective cancer cell targeting unit, (ii) amino moiety that is protonated in acidic (pH <6.5) conditions for pH-activation of the PS based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and (iii) hydrophilic groups enhancing the water solubility of very hydrophobic BODIPY dyes. Illumination of such compounds with suitable light (>640nm) allowed for high phototoxicity against HeLa (αvβ3 integrin and biotin receptor positive) and A549 (biotin receptor positive) cells compared to healthy MRC-5 (biotin negative) cells. Moreover, no dark toxicity was observed on selected cell lines (>10 μM) providing promising photosensitizers for tumour-targeted photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems, which use components at the nanoscale level as diagnostic tools or to release therapeutic drugs to particular target areas in a regulated manner, are a fast-evolving field of science. The active pharmaceutical substance can be released via the drug delivery system to produce the desired therapeutic effect. The poor bioavailability and irregular plasma drug levels of conventional drug delivery systems (tablets, capsules, syrups, etc.) prevent them from achieving sustained delivery. The entire therapy process may be ineffective without a reliable delivery system. To achieve optimal safety and effectiveness, the drug must also be administered at a precision-controlled rate and the targeted spot. The issues with traditional drug delivery are overcome by the development of stimuli-responsive controlled drug release. Over the past decades, regulated drug delivery has evolved considerably, progressing from large- and nanoscale to smart-controlled drug delivery for several diseases. The current review provides an updated overview of recent developments in the field of stimuli-responsive boron-based materials in drug delivery for various diseases. Boron-containing compounds such as boron nitride, boronic acid, and boron dipyrromethene have been developed as a moving field of research in drug delivery. Due to their ability to achieve precise control over drug release through the response to particular stimuli (pH, light, glutathione, glucose or temperature), stimuli-responsive nanoscale drug delivery systems are attracting a lot of attention. The potential of developing their capabilities to a wide range of nanoscale systems, such as nanoparticles, nanosheets/nanospheres, nanotubes, nanocarriers, microneedles, nanocapsules, hydrogel, nanoassembly, etc., is also addressed and examined. This review also provides overall design principles to include stimuli-responsive boron nanomaterial-based drug delivery systems, which might inspire new concepts and applications.

Fluorescent-based nanosensors for selective detection of a wide range of biological macromolecules: A comprehensive review. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 206:115-147. [PMID: 35231532 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.02.137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2021] [Revised: 02/01/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Thanks to their unique attributes, such as good sensitivity, selectivity, high surface-to-volume ratio, and versatile optical and electronic properties, fluorescent-based bioprobes have been used to create highly sensitive nanobiosensors to detect various biological and chemical agents. These sensors are superior to other analytical instrumentation techniques like gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and capillary electrophoresis for being biodegradable, eco-friendly, and more economical, operational, and cost-effective. Moreover, several reports have also highlighted their application in the early detection of biomarkers associated with drug-induced organ damage such as liver, kidney, or lungs. In the present work, we comprehensively overviewed the electrochemical sensors that employ nanomaterials (nanoparticles/colloids or quantum dots, carbon dots, or nanoscaled metal-organic frameworks, etc.) to detect a variety of biological macromolecules based on fluorescent emission spectra. In addition, the most important mechanisms and methods to sense amino acids, protein, peptides, enzymes, carbohydrates, neurotransmitters, nucleic acids, vitamins, ions, metals, and electrolytes, blood gases, drugs (i.e., anti-inflammatory agents and antibiotics), toxins, alkaloids, antioxidants, cancer biomarkers, urinary metabolites (i.e., urea, uric acid, and creatinine), and pathogenic microorganisms were outlined and compared in terms of their selectivity and sensitivity. Altogether, the small dimensions and capability of these nanosensors for sensitive, label-free, real-time sensing of chemical, biological, and pharmaceutical agents could be used in array-based screening and in-vitro or in-vivo diagnostics. Although fluorescent nanoprobes are widely applied in determining biological macromolecules, unfortunately, they present many challenges and limitations. Efforts must be made to minimize such limitations in utilizing such nanobiosensors with an emphasis on their commercial developments. We believe that the current review can foster the wider incorporation of nanomedicine and will be of particular interest to researchers working on fluorescence technology, material chemistry, coordination polymers, and related research areas.

Abstract
The unmet need to develop novel approaches for cancer diagnosis and treatment has led to the evolution of theranostic agents, which usually include, in addition to the anticancer drug, an imaging agent based mostly on fluorescent agents. Over the past few years, a non-invasive photoacoustic imaging modality has been effectively integrated into theranostic agents. Herein, we shed light on the design principles governing the development of theranostic agents with photoacoustic properties, which can be formulated into nanocarriers to enhance their potency. Specifically, we provide an extensive analysis of their individual constituents including the imaging dyes, drugs, linkers, targeting moieties, and their formulation into nanocarriers. Along these lines, we present numerous relevant paradigms. Finally, we discuss the clinical relevance of the specific strategy, as also the limitations and future perspectives, and through this review, we envisage paving the way for the development of theranostic agents endowed with photoacoustic properties as effective anticancer medicines.

Abstract
The combination of cytotoxic amino-BODIPY dye and 2-phenyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-quinolinone (3-HQ) derivatives into one molecule gave rise to selective activity against lymphoblastic or myeloid leukemia and the simultaneous disappearance of the cytotoxicity against normal cells. Both species' conjugation can be realized via a disulfide linker cleavable in the presence of glutathione characteristic for cancer cells. The cleavage liberating the free amino-BODIPY dye and 3-HQ derivative can be monitored by ratiometric fluorescence or by the OFF-ON effect of the amino-BODIPY dye. A similar cytotoxic activity is observed when the amino-BODIPY dye and 3-HQ derivative are connected through a non-cleavable maleimide linker. The work reports the synthesis of several conjugates, the study of their cleavage inside cells, and cytotoxic screening.

Abstract
Ratiometric measurements utilizing two independent fluorescence signals from a dual-dye molecular system help to improve the detection sensitivity and quantification of many analytical, bioanalytical, and pharmaceutical assays, including drug delivery monitoring. Nevertheless, these dual-dye conjugates have never been utilized for ratiometric monitoring of antibody (Ab)-guided targeted drug delivery (TDD). Here, we report for the first time on the new, dual-dye TDD system, Cy5s-Ab-Flu-Aza, comprising the switchable fluorescein-based dye (Flu) linked to the anticancer drug azatoxin (Aza), reference pentamethine cyanine dye (Cy5s), and Her2-specific humanized monoclonal Trastuzumab (Herceptin) antibody. The ability of ratiometric fluorescence monitoring of drug release was demonstrated with this model system in vitro in the example of the human breast cancer SKBR3 cell line overexpressing Her2 receptors. The proposed approach for designing ratiometric, antibody-guided TDD systems, where a "drug-switchable dye" conjugate and a reference dye are independently linked to an antibody, can be expanded to other drugs, dyes, and antibodies. Replacement of the green-emitting dye Flu, which was found not detectable in vivo, with a longer-wavelength (red or near-IR) switchable fluorophore should enable quantification of drug release in the body.

Abstract
In this work, we report two concepts of drug delivery based on small-molecule drug conjugates with the ability of specific targeting and drug release monitoring via ratiometric fluorescence. The functionality of these concepts has been verified by two model systems consisting of three parts: (i) fluorescent aminoBODIPY for real-time detection of conjugate cleavage, (ii) a c(RGDfK) peptide specific for αvβ3 integrin receptors targeting angiogenesis in most solid tumors or redBODIPY for conjugate cleavage monitoring via FRET, and (iii) pegylated-2-phenyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-quinolinone (3HQ) as a model drug. The model drug release is based on a self-immolative disulfide linker sensitive to environments containing thiols, especially glutathione, which is overexpressed in cancer cells. The results show effective thiol-mediated cleavage of the fluorescent reporter and the subsequent liberation of the drug in a tube. The conjugate with c(RGDfK) was confirmed to penetrate the cells via interaction with integrin receptors. Drug release from this conjugate is possible to monitor inside the cells. Further, the synthetic approach to the conjugates and the method of fluorescence monitoring of the drug release have also been described.

Abstract
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) plays an increasingly important role in clinical settings and pharmacy quality control. However, sensitive and simple methods for CS detection remain limited. In this work, positively charged nitrogen doped carbon dots (P-NCDs) with internal luminescence and quenching property to FAM-labeled random-sequence ssDNA (F-ssDNA) were prepared by a simple heating method. P-NCDs attached and quenched F-ssDNA through electrostatic interaction to form the system of P-NCDs and F-ssDNA (P-NCDs/F-ssDNA) with retained fluorescence intensity of P-NCDs. The highly negatively charged CS reacted electrostatically with P-NCDs and then replaced F-ssDNA in P-NCDs/F-ssDNA to recover the fluorescence intensity of the original quenched F-ssDNA while retaining the internal fluorescence intensity of P-NCDs. Thus, by using restored F-ssDNA as the signal controlled by adding CS to P-NCDs/F-ssDNA, a ratiometric fluorescence strategy based on the retained fluorescence of P-NCDs as reference signal was fabricated through synchronous fluorescence spectrometry for the sensitive detection of CS. Under the optimal experimental conditions, a linear equation for CS was obtained for CS concentration within the range of 0.05-2.0 μg/mL. The method was also successfully applied for the accurate determination of CS in joint fluid samples of arthritic patients, chondroitin sulfate tablets, and chondroitin sulfate eye drops, suggesting its appreciable application potential in the clinic.
