Abstract
In the fields of pharmacology and life sciences, it is essential to study how prescribed drugs interact with carrier proteins in human serum albumin. The current study has evaluated the binding properties of rhodanine derivative; (z)-2-(4-(5-((3-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)benzamido)acetic acid (P3CL) on bovine serum albumin (BSA) by biophysical approach. BSA is a homology model of Human serum albumin. Due to the cost-effectiveness of Human Serum Albumin (HSA) we have studied the binding properties of rhodanine derivative (P3CL) on BSA. The BSA-P3CL interactions were investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy and revealed the presence of a static quenching mechanism. P3CL possesses good binding affinity on BSA with binding constant KP3CL = 5.36330 × 1013 M-1 binding free energy. We have calculated the binding free energy, the number of binding sites, and the binding constants. The establishment of hydrogen bonds and the active participation of amino acids in drug binding were confirmed by molecular docking studies. As conventional processes for the investigation of pharmacological drugs, therapeutic combinations, and coordinated drug intake, the offered strategies are simple to comprehend, accurate, and rapid to put into practice. Our findings will support an additional investigation into ligand's pharmacological activity.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Amyloid fibrils are self-assembled aggregates of proteins and peptides that can lead to a broad range of diseases called amyloidosis. So far, no definitive and approved treatment to target directly amyloid fibrils has been introduced. Nevertheless, the search for small molecules with ability to inhibit and suppress fibril formation is an active and promising area of the research. Herein, the binding interactions and inhibitory effects of myricetin and morin hydrate on the in vitro fibrillation of bovine α-lactalbumin (BLA) have been investigated. The intrinsic fluorescence of BLA was quenched by myricetin and morin hydrate through combination of the static and dynamic quenching along with non-radiative Förster energy transfer mechanisms. The binding of these two flavonoids to BLA were not accompanied by major alteration in the conformation of BLA as evidenced by CD studies. The results of the fluorescence quenching analyses indicated almost the same binding affinities of myricetin and morin hydrate toward BLA (Kb ~ 106 M-1). However, the results of thioflavin T (ThT) assays showed that myricetin is a stronger inhibitor against BLA fibrillation compared to morin hydrate.

Impacts of Halogen Substitutions on Bisphenol A Compounds Interaction with Human Serum Albumin: Exploring from Spectroscopic Techniques and Computer Simulations. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:13281.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine-disrupting compound, and the binding mechanism of BPA with carrier proteins has drawn widespread attention. Halogen substitutions can significantly impact the properties of BPA, resulting in various effects for human health. Here, we selected tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) to investigate the interaction between different halogen-substituted BPAs and human serum albumin (HSA). TBBPA/TCBPA spontaneously occupied site I and formed stable binary complexes with HSA. Compared to TCBPA, TBBPA has higher binding affinity to HSA. The effect of different halogen substituents on the negatively charged surface area of BPA was an important reason for the higher binding affinity of TBBPA to HSA compared to TCBPA. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces were crucial in the TCBPA-HSA complex, while the main driving factor for the formation of the TBBPA-HSA complex was hydrophobic interactions. Moreover, the presence of TBBPA/TCBPA changed the secondary structure of HSA. Amino acid residues such as Lys199, Lys195, Phe211, Arg218, His242, Leu481, and Trp214 were found to play crucial roles in the binding process between BPA compounds and HSA. Furthermore, the presence of halogen substituents facilitated the binding of BPA compounds with HSA.

Effects of Albumin Supplements on In-Hospital Mortality in Patients with Sepsis or Septic Shock: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:2384730. [PMID: 36262167 PMCID: PMC9576387 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2384730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Objective To explore the clinical effects of albumin supplements on the basis of crystalloid solution in patients with sepsis or septic shock. Methods The online databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were comprehensively searched from inception to June 28, 2021, with the keywords including “albumin,” “sepsis,” or “septic shock.” Retrospective cohort (RC) and randomized controlled trials (RCT) were included for analysis. Two authors independently searched and analyzed the literature. The in-hospital mortality at 7 days and 28 days, duration of mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy, length of ICU stay, and length of hospital stay were compared between patients with albumin supplements and crystalloid solution and those with crystalloid alone. Results A total of 10 studies with 6463 patients were eventually included for meta-analysis. The in-hospital mortality of patients at 7 days (OR = 1.00, 95% CI: 0.81–1.23) and 28 days (OR = 1.02, 95% CI: 0.91–1.13) did not show a significant difference between the two groups of patients. Also, the pooled results demonstrated no significant differences in duration of mechanical ventilation (OR = 0.29, 95% CI: −0.05–0.63), renal replacement therapy (WMD = 1.15, 95% CI: 0.98–1.35), length of ICU stay (WMD = −0.07, 95% CI: −0.62–0.48), and length of hospital stay (WMD = −0.09, 95% CI: −0.70–0.52) between patients receiving albumin plus crystalloid solution and those with crystalloid solution alone. Conclusion Albumin supplements on the basis of crystalloid solution did not improve the 7-day and 28-dayin-hospital mortality in patients with sepsis or septic shock compared with those with crystalloid solution alone.

Abstract
Aim The purpose of this study was to explore prognostic factors of bloodstream infections (BSIs), a common severe infection and a major cause of mortality worldwide, so as to construct a prognosis model of patients with BSI. Materials and Methods Clinical and biochemical test data were obtained retrospectively from the medical records of 562 patients with BSI who had been treated at a single center; the end point was 60 days of all-cause death. The chi-square test was used to compare the mortality of patients grouped by the types of antibiotic treatment. The logistic regression analysis was adopted to identify prognostic factors; the Kaplan–Meier survival curve and log-rank test were conducted to compare the survival rate of patients with different prognostic factors; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to estimate the predictive value of different prognostic factors. Results Of the 562 patients, 455 survived (80.96%), and 107 died (19.04%). The mortality rate of patients treated with a combination of antibiotics (25.40%) was higher than that treated with a single antibiotic (15.82%). Univariate analysis identified 19 prognostic factors for patients with BSI, including gender, age, diabetes, malignant tumor (non-blood system), total hospitalization time, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total protein, albumin, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, creatinine, ratio of granulocytes, fibrinogen, D-dimer, platelet, C-reactive protein, shock, and respiratory failure (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that albumin (odds ratio [OR] = 0.94, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.89–0.99), fibrinogen (OR = 0.61, 95%CI: 0.46–0.82), shock (OR = 16.61, 95%CI: 7.00–39.41), and respiratory failure (OR = 47.53, 95%CI: 19.93–133.64) were independent factors. The combination of four indicators demonstrated a favorable predictive value for the 60-day outcome of patients with BSI, with an area under the ROC of 0.96 (95%CI: 0.94–0.99), sensitivity of 90.65%, specificity of 94.95%, and accuracy of 94.13%. Conclusions Shock, respiratory failure, albumin, and fibrinogen are potential independent prognostic factors for 60-day mortality.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a recognized endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC), and its analogues also exert negative effects on health. The structure-affinity relationship between the structures of nine bisphenol (BP) analogues and the conformational changes of bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by various characterization methods and molecular docking. BPs including BPA and its analogues, bisphenol B (BPB), bisphenol C (BPC), bisphenol AP (BPAP), bisphenol M (BPM), bisphenol P (BPP), bisphenol Z (BPZ), diethylstilbestrol (DES) and dienestrol (DS) interacted with BSA. At the concentration of 3.85 × 10-5 mol l-1, DS was found to lead to 64% quenching, while BPAP, BPM and DES quenched 60%, 59% and 55% of BSA fluorescence, respectively. The values of ΔH (-19.31-135.42 kJ mol-1) and ΔS (12.52-495.63 J mol-1 K-1) indicated that hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds played important roles in the binding process. The binding constants of DS (8.87 × 104 l mol-1), DES (3.05 × 104 l mol-1), BPAP (1.52 × 104 l mol-1), BPC (1.16 × 104 l mol-1) and BPM (1.10 × 104 l mol-1) to BSA were greater than that of BPA (1.18 × 103 l mol-1) to BSA, indicating that they may exert more negative effects than BPA. The molecular structure differences of these BPs partly affected their ability to bind to BSA. The binding constants of BPB/BPP to BSA were smaller due to the steric hindrance of ethyl and benzene ring. BPs with conjugated double bond structures (DS and DES) and benzene ring structures (BPM, BPP, BPAP) had a greater influence on the conformation of BSA.

Abstract
Sulfonamides are a kind of antibiotics which have been widely used as feed additives for livestock and poultry. However, sulfa drugs have raised worldwide concerns because of their adverse impact on human health. In this study, two sulfonamides, sulfametoxydiazine (SMD) and sulfamonomethoxine (SMM), were selected to explore the binding modes with human serum albumin (HSA). The spectroscopic approaches revealed that SMD or SMM could spontaneously enter into the binding site I of HSA through hydrogen bond interactions and van der Waals forces, and that SMD exhibited much stronger binding affinity toward HSA than SMM at different temperatures (p < 0.01, n = 3). The binding constants for SMD-HSA and SMM-HSA were determined to be (8.297 ± 0.010) × 104 L·mol-1 and (1.178 ± 0.008) × 104 L·mol-1 at 298 K, respectively. The interaction of SMD or SMM to HSA induced microenvironmental and conformational changes in HSA, where SMD had a greater effect on the α-helix content of HSA. Results from molecular docking implied that the amino acid residues of HSA, such as Arg222, Ala291 and Leu238, played key roles in the sulfonamide-HSA binding process. Meanwhile, hydrogen bonds might be a key factor contributing to the binding affinity of sulfa drugs and HSA. Additionally, the combined use of SMD and SMM led to an obvious variation in Ka values of binary systems (p < 0.01, n = 3). These findings might be helpful to understand the biological effects of sulfonamides in humans.

Abstract
As an abundant protein in milk and blood serum, bovine serum albumin (BSA) contains various sites to bind a lot of bioactive components, generating BSA-monoligand complex. Demonstration of the interaction between BSA and bioactive components (such as heme, flavonoids) is important to develop effective carrier for the protection of bioactive ligands and to reduce cytotoxicity of heme. Herein, the bindings of BSA to quercetin and/or heme were investigated by multispectroscopic and molecular docking methods. The fluorescence of protein was significantly quenched by both quercetin and heme in a static mode (i.e., generation of BSA-ligand complex). Although quercetin had lower affinity to protein than heme, the interactions of both compounds with protein did locate in site I (i.e., subdomain IIA). BSA-diligand complex was successfully generated after the coaddition of quercetin and heme. The cytotoxicity of free heme to endothelial cells was reduced in the BSA-diligand complex relative to that of heme or BSA-monoligand complex, while the stability of bioactive quercetin was promoted in the complex relative to free flavonoid. The complex provided a better inhibition on the cytotoxicity of heme than BSA-monoligand complex, in which the copresence of quercetin played a vital role.

Pharmaceutics 2020; 12:E1123. [PMID: 33233356 PMCID: PMC7700232 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics12111123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2020] [Revised: 11/18/2020] [Accepted: 11/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The distribution of drugs and dietary phenolic compounds in the systemic circulation de-pends on, among other factors, unspecific/specific reversible binding to plasma proteins such as human serum albumin (HSA). Phenolic substances, present in plant-derived feeds, foods, beverages, herbal medicines, and dietary supplements, are of great interest due to their biological activity. Recently, considerable research has been directed at the formation of phenol-HSA complexes, focusing above all on structure-affinity relationships. The nucleophilicity and planarity of molecules can be altered by the number and position of hydroxyl groups on the aromatic ring and by hydrogenation. Binding affinities towards HSA may also differ between phenolic compounds in their native form and conjugates derived from phase II reactions. On the other hand, food-drug interactions may increase the concentration of free drugs in the blood, affecting their transport and/or disposition and in some cases provoking adverse or toxic effects. This is caused mainly by a decrease in drug binding affinities for HSA in the presence of flavonoids. Accordingly, to avoid the side effects arising from changes in plasma protein binding, the intake of flavonoid-rich food and beverages should be taken into consideration when treating certain pathologies.

Abstract
Binding of lumefantrine (LUM), an antimalarial drug to human serum albumin (HSA), the main carrier protein in human blood circulation was investigated using fluorescence quenching titration, UV-vis absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy as well as molecular docking. LUM-induced quenching of the protein (HSA) fluorescence was characterized as static quenching, as revealed by the decrease in the value of the Stern-Volmer quenching constant, Ksv with increasing temperature, thus suggesting LUM-HSA complex formation. This was also confirmed from the UV-vis absorption spectral results. Values of the association constant, Ka for LUM-HSA interaction were found to be within the range, 7.27-5.01 × 104 M-1 at three different temperatures, i.e. 288 K, 298 K and 308 K, which indicated moderate binding affinity between LUM and HSA. The LUM-HSA complex was stabilized by hydrophobic interactions, H-bonds, as well as van der Waals forces, as predicted from the thermodynamic data (ΔS = +50.34 J mol-1 K-1 and ΔH = -12.3 kJ mol-1) of the binding reaction. Far-UV and near-UV CD spectral results demonstrated smaller changes in both secondary and tertiary structures of HSA upon LUM binding, while three-dimensional fluorescence spectra suggested alterations in the microenvironment around protein fluorophores (Trp and Tyr). LUM binding to HSA offered stability to the protein against thermal stress. Competitive drug displacement results designated Sudlow's Site I, located in subdomain IIA of HSA as the preferred binding site of LUM on HSA, which was well supported by molecular docking analysis.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Fluorescence Spectroscopic Investigation of Competitive Interactions between Quercetin and Aflatoxin B₁ for Binding to Human Serum Albumin. Toxins (Basel) 2019; 11:toxins11040214. [PMID: 30970656 PMCID: PMC6521043 DOI: 10.3390/toxins11040214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2019] [Revised: 04/02/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB₁) is a highly toxic mycotoxin found worldwide in cereals, food, and animal feeds. AFB₁ binds to human serum albumin (HSA) with high affinity. In previous experiments, it has been revealed that reducing the binding rate of AFB₁ with HSA could speed up the elimination rate of AFB₁. Therefore, we examined the ability of quercetin to compete with AFB₁ for binding HSA by fluorescence spectroscopy, synchronous spectroscopy, ultrafiltration studies, etc. It was shown that AFB₁ and quercetin bind to HSA in the same Sudlow site Ӏ (subdomain IIA), and the binding constant (Ka) of the quercetin-HSA complex is significantly stronger than the complex of AFB₁-HSA. Our data in this experiment showed that quercetin is able to remove the AFB₁ from HSA and reduce its bound fraction. This exploratory work may be of significance for studies in the future regarding decreasing its bound fraction and then increasing its elimination rate for detoxification. This exploratory study may initiate future epidemiological research designs to obtain further in vivo evidence of the long-term (potential protective) effects of competing substances on human patients.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism between olaparib (OLA) and human serum albumin (HSA) has been investigated using experimental and computational techniques. An NMR relaxation approach based on the analysis of proton selective and non-selective spin-lattice relaxation rates at different temperatures can provide quantitative information about the affinity index and the thermodynamic equilibrium constant of the OLA-HSA system. The affinity index and the thermodynamic equilibrium constant decreased as temperature increased, indicating that the interactions between OLA and HSA could be weakened as temperature increased. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations revealed that OLA stably bound to subdomain II (site 1), and OLA could induce the conformational and micro-environmental changes in HSA. CD results suggested that α-helix content decreased after OLA was added, demonstrating that OLA affected the secondary structure of HSA.
