Abstract
Vitamin B9, known as folic acid, and hemoglobin play an important biological role in the human body. This study was designed to investigate the nature of the complex through multispectroscopic methods at physiological conditions due to the lack of research on the binding interactions between folic acid and hemoglobin. Structural analysis showed that the interactions between the molecules are mainly hydrophobic with binding constant of 0.73 × 104 L/mol at 37 °C. The secondary structure of the protein was stable after the addition of folic acid with a 20-fold excess of ligand per mol protein. The stability effect of folic acid on hemoglobin was examined as a function of release of iron ions and determination of the level of phenanthroline-Fe2+ complex. The protective function of folic acid was observed at a concentration of 6.12 nmol/L, and the release of iron ions was lower than in the control probe.

Abstract
Medication adherence is an important factor in inflammatory bowel disease therapy, which includes regular supplementation of malabsorbed vitamins. Absorption of folic acid is limited due to the damaging of the gastrointestinal tract, which can increase the chances to develop megaloblastic anaemia and colorectal cancer. In this work, 5-aminosalicylates (mesalazine, balsalazide, sulfasalazine and olsalazine) and folic acid were characterized regarding their pharmacokinetic related properties (hydrophobicity, phospholipid and plasma protein binding) using the biomimetic chromatographic approach. Despite the high binding percentage of 5-aminosalicylates for human serum albumin (> 61.44%), results have shown that folic acid binding to human serum albumin protein is far greater (69.40%) compared to α1-acid-glycoprotein (3.45%). Frontal analysis and zonal elution studies were conducted to provide an insight into the binding of folic acid to human serum albumin and potential competition with 5-aminosalicylates. The analytical method for the simultaneous determination of assay in proposed fixed-dose combinations was developed and validated according to ICH Q2 (R1) and FDA method validation guidelines. Separation of all compounds was achieved within 16 min with satisfactory resolution (Rs > 3.67) using the XBridge Phenyl column (150 × 4.6 mm, 3.5 µm). High linearity (r > 0.9997) and precision (RSD < 2.29%) was obtained, whilst all recoveries were within the regulatory defined range by British (100.0 ± 5.0%) and United States Pharmacopeia (100.0 ± 10.0%).

J Inorg Biochem 2020; 215:111318.

Abstract
On the one hand, to obtain a novel next-generation anticancer metal agent; on the other hand, to improve the targeting ability and decrease side effects of metal agent, we proposed to design active-targeting human serum albumin (HSA) nanoparticles (NPs) to achieve the end. Thus, we not only designed and synthesized two ruthenium (Ru) thiosemicarbazone compounds (C1 and C2) but also succeeded in constructing active Biotin-HSA NPs for Ru(III) compounds. Importantly, Biotin-HSA-C2 NPs not only possessed a stronger capacity for killing MCF-7 cells and inhibiting their migration versusC2 alone but also increased accumulation compared to non-malignant WI-38 cells. Additionally, C2 and Biotin-HSA-C2 NPs act against MCF-7 cells by the following potential mechanism: 1) arresting the cell cycle in the S phase by regulating cyclin and cyclin-dependent kinases; 2) inducing apoptosis by releasing cytochrome c to activate caspase-9/3; 3) inhibiting the expression of p-EGFR and regulating its neighboring cellular pathways, followed by the inactivation of PI3K/Akt and activation of p38 MAPK signaling pathways.

Abstract
Folic acid (FA) is a water soluble bioactive food constituent from the vitamin B-family complex (B9). FA deficiency can lead to a variety of human health problems, while a high intake of FA can reduce the cytotoxicity of natural killer cells. The main goal of this study was to investigate the interaction of FA with human serum albumin (HSA) at physiological pH using ATR-FTIR, fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in order to understand the role of HSA as a blood transporter for FA in aqueous solution that can be used in different therapies. The quenching of HSA in the presence of FA was followed and the binding constant (Kb) was determined. The variation of electrochemical parameters proved that the FA binds to immobilized HSA and the binding constant was ten times than the value obtained when the interaction takes place between free molecules in solution when studied by fluorescence quenching. The results can be used in future studies to improve drug delivery systems or cellular uptake of folic acid and food components conjugated to HSA nanoparticles or nanocapsules.

Abstract
The conjugation of tRNA with folic acid-chitosan conjugates was studied, using multiple spectroscopic methods and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Thermodynamic analysis ΔH -14 to -10 (KJMol-1) and ΔS 14 to -1 (JMol-1, K-1) showed tRNA-folic acid-chitosan bindings occur via H-bonding, hydrophobic and van der Waals contacts. The loading efficacy and the stability of tRNA conjugates were enhanced as folic acid-chitosan size increased. TEM analysis showed major tRNA morphological changes, upon folic acid-chitosan conjugation. No alteration of tRNA conformation was observed on conjugate formation. Folic acid-chitosan conjugates can deliver tRNA in vitro.
