Effect of solvents and glutathione on the decomposition of the nitrosyl iron complex with N-ethylthiourea ligands: An experimental and theoretical study. J Inorg Biochem 2022; 235:111926. [PMID: 35843200 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2022.111926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) are a depot and potential source of free NO in organisms. Their synthetic analog, N-ethylthiourea DNIC [Fe(SC(NH2)(NHC2H5))2(NO)2]+Cl-∙[Fe(SC(NH2)(NHC2H5))Cl(NO)2]0 (complex 1), as cardioprotective and cytostatic agent is a promising prodrug for the treatment of socially relevant diseases. In this work, transformation mechanism of complex 1 has been studied in anaerobic aqueous solution (pH = 7.0), DMSO, and ethanol. It was shown that the solvent has a significant effect on the decomposition of complex. According to EPR-spectroscopy, only cationic part of complex is found upon its dissolution in water; only neutral part is retained in DMSO, and both fragments are present in ethanol. Effective generation of NO occurs in an aqueous solution. The structures of the decomposition products were proposed for all solvents, their UV-spectra and rate constants were calculated. From the experimental and theoretical data obtained, it follows that complex 1 is most stable in DMSO. Solutions of complex in a DMSO-water mixture can be used to improve its bioavailability in further in vitro and in vivo studies. Also, we have analyzed its interaction with glutathione (GSH), which can participate in the metabolism of this compound. This study shows that complex 1 reacts with GSH to form a new binuclear DNIC with two GS--ligands. It was found that the resulting complex is a more prolonged NO-donor than the initial one: k = 6.1∙10-3·s-1 in buffer, k = 6.4∙10-5 s-1 with GSH. This reaction may prevent S-glutathionylation of the essential enzyme systems and is important for metabolism of complex, associated with its antitumor activity.

Abstract
The cytotoxic activity of a series of dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) with thioureas against cells of different origin has been studied in this work. The cytotoxicity of the studied DNICs proved to be substantially different depending on the structure of the complexes and cell line. Complexes with thiourea and 1,3-dimethylthiourea were found to induce notable cell death in different cell lines of both cancerous and non-cancerous origin, while the N-ethylthiourea-bearing complex induced cell death in cells derived from brain tumors. The studied DNICs effectively release NO while decomposing in solutions, as follows from the electrochemical analysis. It was found that the cytotoxic effects of the studied DNICs did not correlate with their NO-donating ability, hence suggesting that their cytotoxic activity is, in a big part, defined by the long-lived nitrosyl iron-sulfur intermediates formed during the decomposition of the complexes. The structures of the products formed upon hydrolytic decomposition of all studied DNICs have been studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Stable high-molecular cluster ions containing NO groups namely [Fe4S3(NO)7]- (Roussin's "black salt" anion), [Fe4S3(NO)5]-, [Fe4S4(NO)4]-, [Fe4S3(NO)4]- and [Fe4S3(NO)6]- have been detected in the solution of the N-ethylthiourea-bearing complex. The mechanism of Roussin's "black salt" anion formation in a solution of DNIC with N'-ethylthiourea was studied using density functional theory. This moved us near understanding the reasons for the formation of biologically active intermediates upon the decomposition of the complex with N'-ethylthiourea, which are apparently responsible for the unique antiglioma activity of the complex.

Abstract
In this perspective, we discuss iron-complexes as drug candidates that are promising alternatives to conventional platinum-based chemotherapies owing to their broad range of reactivities and to the targeting of different biological systems. Breakthroughs in the comprehension of iron complexes' structure-activity relationship contributed to the clarification of their metabolization pathways, sub-cellular localization and influence on iron homeostasis, while enlightening the primary molecular targets of theses likely multi-target metallodrugs. Both the antiproliferative activity and elevated safety index observed among the family of iron complexes showed encouraging results as per their therapeutic potential and selectivity also with the aim of reducing chemotherapy side-effects, and facilitated more pre-clinical investigations. The purpose of this perspective is to summarize the recent advances that contributed in unveiling the intricate relationships between the structural modifications on iron-complexes and their reactivity, cellular trafficking and global mechanisms of action to broaden their use as anticancer drugs and advance to clinical evaluation.

Abstract
Because of their antibacterial activity, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been explored in biomedical applications. Similarly, nitric oxide (NO) is an important endogenous free radical with an antimicrobial effect and toxicity toward cancer cells that plays pivotal roles in several processes. In this work, biogenic AgNPs were prepared using green tea extract and the principles of green chemistry, and the NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was prepared by the nitrosation of glutathione. To enhance the potentialities of GSNO and AgNPs in biomedical applications, the NO donor and metallic nanoparticles were individually or simultaneously incorporated into polymeric solid films of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The resulting solid nanocomposites were characterized by several techniques, and the diffusion profiles of GSNO and AgNPs were investigated. The results demonstrated the formation of homogeneous PVA/PEG solid films containing GSNO and nanoscale AgNPs that are distributed in the polymeric matrix. PVA/PEG films containing AgNPs demonstrated a potent antibacterial effect against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. GSNO-containing PVA/PEG films demonstrated toxicity toward human cervical carcinoma and human prostate cancer cell lines. Interestingly, the incorporation of AgNPs in PVA/PEG/GSNO films had a superior effect on the decrease of cell viability of both cancer cell lines, compared with cells treated with films containing GSNO or AgNPs individually. To our best knowledge, this is the first report to describe the preparation of PVA/PEG solid films containing GSNO and/or biogenically synthesized AgNPs. These polymeric films might find important biomedical applications as a solid material with antimicrobial and antitumorigenic properties.

Alterations of tumor microenvironment by nitric oxide impedes castration-resistant prostate cancer growth. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2018; 115:11298-11303.

Abstract
Immune targeted therapy of nitric oxide (NO) synthases are being considered as a potential frontline therapeutic to treat patients diagnosed with locally advanced and metastatic prostate cancer. However, the role of NO in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is controversial because NO can increase in nitrosative stress while simultaneously possessing antiinflammatory properties. Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that increased NO will lead to tumor suppression of CRPC through tumor microenvironment. S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), an NO donor, decreased the tumor burden in murine model of CRPC by targeting tumors in a cell nonautonomous manner. GSNO inhibited both the abundance of antiinflammatory (M2) macrophages and expression of pERK, indicating that tumor-associated macrophages activity is influenced by NO. Additionally, GSNO decreased IL-34, indicating suppression of tumor-associated macrophage differentiation. Cytokine profiling of CRPC tumor grafts exposed to GSNO revealed a significant decrease in expression of G-CSF and M-CSF compared with grafts not exposed to GSNO. We verified the durability of NO on CRPC tumor suppression by using secondary xenograft murine models. This study validates the significance of NO on inhibition of CRPC tumors through tumor microenvironment (TME). These findings may facilitate the development of previously unidentified NO-based therapy for CRPC.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in physiological processes, including vasodilatation, wound healing and antibacterial activities. As NO is a free radical, designing drugs to generate therapeutic amounts of NO in controlled spatial and time manners is still a challenge. In this study, the NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was incorporated into the thermoresponsive Pluronic F-127 (PL)-chitosan (CS) hydrogel, with an easy and economically feasible methodology. CS is a polysaccharide with known antimicrobial properties. Scanning electron microscopy, rheology and differential scanning calorimetry techniques were used for hydrogel characterization. The results demonstrated that the hydrogel has a smooth surface, thermoresponsive behavior and good mechanical stability. The kinetics of NO release and GSNO diffusion from GSNO-containing PL/CS hydrogel demonstrated a sustained NO/GSNO release, in concentrations suitable for biomedical applications. The GSNO-PL/CS hydrogel demonstrated a concentration-dependent toxicity to Vero cells, and antimicrobial activity to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values of 0.5 µg·mL-1 of hydrogel, which corresponds to 1 mmol·L-1 of GSNO). Interestingly, the concentration range in which the NO-releasing hydrogel demonstrated an antibacterial effect was not found to be toxic to the Vero mammalian cell. Thus, the GSNO-PL/CS hydrogel is a suitable biomaterial for topical NO delivery applications.
