Lanthanide complexes with polyaminopolycarboxylates as prospective NMR/MRI diagnostic probes: peculiarities of molecular structure, dynamics and paramagnetic properties. J INCL PHENOM MACRO 2021; 102:1-33. [PMID: 34785985 PMCID: PMC8582344 DOI: 10.1007/s10847-021-01112-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
The paramagnetic lanthanide complexes with polyaminopolycarboxylate (PAPC) ligands attract considerable attention from the standpoint of potential applications thereof as relaxation agents used in medical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and in luminescent materials, as well as owing to promising use thereof as paramagnetic labels for studying the properties of biopolymers since they exhibit thermodynamic stability, good solubility in aqueous media and moderate toxicity. For the last decades, the NMR methods have been used to determine the physical and chemical properties of paramagnetic Ln compounds. The studies concerning paramagnetic NMR lanthanide-induced shifts (LISs) in dissolved Ln complexes, as well as the analysis of band shape as a function of temperature make it possible to obtain valuable information on the structure, intra- and intermolecular dynamics and paramagnetic properties thereof. This review is devoted solely to the following features: firstly, the processes of intramolecular dynamics of lanthanide complexes with polyamino-polycarboxylate ligands such as DOTA, EDTA and DTPA and their derivatives studied by NMR; secondly, the LISs of lanthanide complexes with EDTA, DOTA, DTPA and some of their derivatives depending on temperature and pH. Moreover, in this review, for the first time, the dependence of the activation energy of molecular dynamics in complexes with polydentate ligands on the atomic number of the lanthanide cation is analyzed and a monotonic change in energy is detected, which is due to the effect of lanthanide contraction. It should be noted that this phenomenon is quite general and may also appear in the future in many other series of lanthanide complexes with both other multidentate ligands and with bidentate and monodentate ligands. In the future, it is possible to predict the dependence of the properties of certain lanthanide complexes on the ionic radius of the lanthanide cation based on the approaches presented in the review. In this review, we have also presented the dynamic NMR as the main research method widely used to analyze the processes of molecular dynamics, and the structural studies based on the NMR relaxation spectroscopy and LIS analysis.

Formation of dendrimer-guest complexes as a strategy to increase the solubility of a phenazine N, N'-dioxide derivative with antitumor activity. Heliyon 2019; 5:e01528.

Abstract
Poly(amidoamine) and Poly(propylenimine) dendrimers with different generations and peripheral groups were studied as solubility enhancers and nanocarriers for 7-bromo-2-hydroxy-phenazine N5,N10-dioxide. This compound possesses potential antitumoral and anti-trypanosomal activity, but its low solubility in physiological media precludes its possible application as therapeutic drug. The amino terminated dendrimers association with the active compounds as observed trough NMR studies showed that electrostatic interactions are essential in the solubilization enhancement process. The obtaining of a stable and no cytotoxic formulation makes the drug-carried association a suitable strategy for the generation of a drug delivery system for phenazine derivatives.

Abstract
Neuronal activity results in the release of [Formula: see text] into the extracellular space (ECS). Classically, measurements of extracellular [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) are carried out using [Formula: see text]-sensitive microelectrodes, which provide a single point measurement with undefined spatial resolution. An imaging approach would enable the spatiotemporal mapping of [Formula: see text]. Here, we report on the design and characterization of a fluorescence imaging-based [Formula: see text]-sensitive nanosensor for the ECS based on dendrimer nanotechnology. Spectral characterization, sensitivity, and selectivity of the nanosensor were assessed by spectrofluorimetry, as well as in both wide-field and two-photon microscopy settings, demonstrating the nanosensor efficacy over the physiologically relevant ion concentration range. Spatial and temporal kinetics of the nanosensor responses were assessed using a localized iontophoretic [Formula: see text] application on a two-photon imaging setup. Using acute mouse brain slices, we demonstrate that the nanosensor is retained in the ECS for extended periods of time. In addition, we present a ratiometric version of the nanosensor, validate its sensitivity in brain tissue in response to elicited neuronal activity and correlate the responses to the extracellular field potential. Together, this study demonstrates the efficacy of the [Formula: see text]-sensitive nanosensor approach and validates the possibility of creating multimodal nanosensors.

Unexpected Temperature Behavior of Polyethylene Glycol Spacers in Copolymer Dendrimers in Chloroform. Sci Rep 2016; 6:24270.

Abstract
We have studied copolymer dendrimer structure: carbosilane dendrimers with terminal phenylbenzoate mesogenic groups attached by poly(ethylene) glycol (PEG) spacers. In this system PEG spacers are additional tuning to usual copolymer structure: dendrimer with terminal mesogenic groups. The dendrimer macromolecules were investigated in a dilute chloroform solution by 1H NMR methods (spectra and relaxations). It was found that the PEG layer in G = 5 generations dendrimer is “frozen” at high temperatures (above 260 K), but it unexpectedly becomes “unfrozen” at temperatures below 250 K (i.e., melting when cooling). The transition between these two states occurs within a small temperature range (~10 K). Such a behavior is not observed for smaller dendrimer generations (G = 1 and 3). This effect is likely related to the low critical solution temperature (LCST) of PEG and is caused by dendrimer conformations, in which the PEG group concentration in the layer increases with growing G. We suppose that the unusual behavior of PEG fragments in dendrimers will be interesting for practical applications such as nanocontainers or nanoreactors.

Spectroscopic and calorimetric studies of formation of the supramolecular complexes of PAMAM G5-NH₂ and G5-OH dendrimers with 5-fluorouracil in aqueous solution. Int J Pharm 2015; 490:102-11. [PMID: 25997661 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2015.05.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2015] [Revised: 05/04/2015] [Accepted: 05/11/2015] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
The results of spectroscopic measurements (increase in solubility, equilibrium dialysis, (1)H NMR titration) and calorimetric measurements (isothermal titration ITC) indicate exothermic (ΔH<0) and spontaneous (ΔG < 0) combination of an antitumor drug, 5-fluorouracil, by both cationic PAMAM G5-NH2 dendrimer and its hydroxyl analog PAMAM G5-OH in aqueous solutions at room temperature. PAMAM G5-NH2 dendrimer combines about 70 molecules of the drug with equilibrium constant K ≅ 300, which is accompanied by an increase in the system order (ΔS < 0). Hydroxyl dendrimer, PAMAM G5-OH, combines about 14 molecules of 5-fluorouracil with equilibrium constant K ≅ 100. This process is accompanied by an increase in the system disorder (ΔS > 0).
