Ageing Res Rev 2024; 97:102311. [PMID: 38636559 DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2024.102311] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
Ovarian aging is marked by a reduction in the quantity and quality of ovarian follicles, leading to a decline in female fertility and ovarian endocrine function. While the biological characteristics of ovarian aging are well-established, the exact mechanisms underlying this process remain elusive. Recent studies underscore the vital role of trace elements (TEs) in maintaining ovarian function. Imbalances in TEs can lead to ovarian aging, characterized by reduced enzyme activity, hormonal imbalances, ovulatory disorders, and decreased fertility. A comprehensive understanding of the relationship between systemic and cellular TEs balance and ovarian aging is critical for developing treatments to delay aging and manage age-related conditions. This review consolidates current insights into TEs homeostasis and its impact on ovarian aging, assesses how altered TEs metabolism affects ovarian aging, and suggests future research directions to prolong ovarian reproductive life. These studies are expected to offer novel approaches for mitigating ovarian aging.

Abstract
Aging is a natural phenomenon characterized by a progressive decline in physiological integrity, leading to a deterioration of cognitive function and increasing the risk of suffering from chronic-degenerative diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, cancer, diabetes, and neurodegeneration. Aging is considered the major risk factor for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease develops. Likewise, diabetes and insulin resistance constitute additional risk factors for developing neurodegenerative disorders. Currently, no treatment can effectively reverse these neurodegenerative pathologies. However, some antidiabetic drugs have opened the possibility of being used against neurodegenerative processes. In the previous framework, Vanadium species have demonstrated a notable antidiabetic effect. Our research group evaluated polyoxidovanadates such as decavanadate and metforminium-decavanadate with preventive and corrective activity on neurodegeneration in brain-specific areas from rats with metabolic syndrome. The results suggest that these polyoxidovanadates induce neuronal and cognitive restoration mechanisms. This review aims to describe the therapeutic potential of polyoxidovanadates as insulin-enhancer agents in the brain, constituting a therapeutic alternative for aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Aging is a key risk factor in cognitive diseases. Recently, metal exposures were found associated with both biological aging and cognitive function. Here, we aim to evaluate the associations of blood metals with cognitive function and the mediated effect of biological aging. Fourteen metals were detected and biological age was calculated through Klemera and Doubal method among 514 adults in Beijing, China. The generalized linear models indicated that the copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), and strontium (Sr) were positively associated with biological aging [βCu (95% CI): 12.76 (9.26, 16.27); βMo (95% CI): 1.50 (0.15, 2.85)], and βSr (95% CI): 1.86 (0.68, 3.03)], while vanadium (V) was inversely related to biological aging [βV (95% CI): -0.76 (-1.48, -0.05)]. Subsequently, Cu, lead (Pb), selenium (Se), and biological aging were associated with cognitive function and further mediation analyses confirmed that biological aging partially mediated (33.98%, P = 0.019) the association of Cu and cognitive function. Additionally, we constructed a lifestyle index that implied the modifiable healthy lifestyle could slow aging to attenuate the detrimental effect of metals on cognition. Our findings provide insights into the potential pathways linking multiple metals exposure to aging and cognition and underscore the importance of adopting healthy lifestyles.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic and highly lethal lung disease that largely results from oxidative stress; however, effective antioxidant therapy by targeting oxidative stress pathogenesis is still lacking. The big challenge is to develop an ideal antioxidant material with superior antifibrotic effects. Herein, we report that V4C3 nanosheets (NSs) can serve as a potential antioxidant for treatment of pulmonary fibrosis by scavenging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Interestingly, subtle autoxidation can adjust the valence composition of V4C3 NSs and significantly improve their antioxidant behavior. Valence engineering triggers multiple antioxidant mechanisms including electron transfer, H atom transfer, and enzyme-like catalysis, thus endowing V4C3 NSs with broad-spectrum, high-efficiency, and persistent antioxidant capacity. Benefiting from antioxidant properties and good biocompatibility, V4C3 NSs can significantly prevent myofibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix abnormality, thus alleviating the progression of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in vivo by scavenging ROS, anti-inflammation, and rebuilding antioxidant defenses. This study not only provides an important strategy for designing excellent antioxidant nanomaterials, but also proposes a proof-of-concept demonstration for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis and other oxidative stress-related diseases.

Abstract
The structural determination and characterization of molecules, namely proteins and enzymes, is crucial to gaining a better understanding of their role in different chemical and biological processes. The continuous technical developments in the experimental and computational resources of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and, more recently, cryogenic Electron Microscopy (cryo-EM) led to an enormous growth in the number of structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Bioinorganic chemistry arose as a relevant discipline in biology and therapeutics, with a massive number of studies reporting the effects of metal complexes on biological systems, with vanadium complexes being one of the relevant systems addressed. In this review, we focus on the interactions of vanadium compounds (VCs) with proteins. Several types of binding are established between VCs and proteins/enzymes. Considering that the V-species that bind may differ from those initially added, the mentioned structural techniques are pivotal to clarifying the nature and variety of interactions of VCs with proteins and to proposing the mechanisms involved either in enzymatic inhibition or catalysis. As such, we provide an account of the available structural information of VCs bound to proteins obtained by both XRD and/or cryo-EM, mainly exploring the more recent structures, particularly those containing organic-based vanadium complexes.

Abstract
We developed an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry method for testing 23 elements, namely, Mg, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ba, W, Tl, Pb, and U, in human serum. The serum samples were analyzed after diluting 1/25 with 0.5% nitric acid, 0.02% Triton-X-100, and 2% methanol. Sc, In, Y, Tb, and Bi were assigned internal standards to correct the baseline drift and matrix interference. The kinetic energy discrimination mode of the instrument with helium gas as the collision gas eliminated polyatomic interference. All 23 elements exhibited excellent linearity in their testing range, with a coefficient of determination ≥ 0.9996. The limits of detection of the 23 elements were within the range of 0.0004-0.2232 µg/L. The intra- and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation) were < 12.19%. The recoveries of the spiked standard for all elements were 88.98-109.86%. Among the 23 elements of the serum reference materials, the measured results of Mg, Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Se were within the specified range of the certificate, and the results of the other elements were also satisfactory. The developed method was simple, rapid, and effective, and only 60 μL sample was consumed. A total of 1000 serum samples from healthy individuals were randomly selected from the Henan Rural Cohort, which reflects the status of serum elements in rural adults from the Northern Henan province of central China.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BGs), also known as bioglasses, are very attractive and versatile materials that are increasingly being used in dentistry. For this study, two new bioglasses-one with boron (BG1) and another with boron and vanadium (BG2)-were synthesized, characterized, and tested on human dysplastic keratinocytes. The in vitro biological properties were evaluated through pH and zeta potential measurement, weight loss, Ca2+ ions released after immersion in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. Furthermore, biocompatibility was evaluated through quantification of lactate dehydrogenase activity, oxidative stress, transcription factors, and DNA lesions. The results indicate that both BGs presented the same behavior in simulated fluids, characterized by high degradation, fast release of calcium and boron in the environment (especially from BG1), and increased pH and zeta potential. Both BGs reacted with the fluid, particularly BG2, with irregular deposits covering the glass surface. In vitro studies demonstrated that normal doses of the BGs were not cytotoxic to DOK, while high doses reduced cell viability. Both BGs induced oxidative stress and cell membrane damage and enhanced NFkB activation, especially BG1. The BGs down-regulated the expression of NFkB and diminished the DNA damage, suggesting the protective effects of the BGs on cell death and efficacy of DNA repair mechanisms.

[PMID: 36109193 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2022.111980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
One centrosymmetric bis(μ-oxido)-bridged vanadium(V) dimer with molecular formula [(VVO2)2(pedf)2] (1) has been synthesized from the reaction of VOSO4·5H2O with a Schiff base ligand (abbreviated with pedf-) obtained from 2-acetylpyridine and 2-furoic hydrazide in methanol. Complex 1 was characterized by elemental analysis, UV-visible (UV-Vis), Fourier-transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) and electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) techniques along with single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The FT-IR spectral data of 1 indicated the involvement of oxygen and azomethine nitrogen in coordination to the central metal ion. The crystallographic studies revealed a dinuclear oxovanadium(V) complex with the Schiff base coordinated via the ONN donor set with formation of two five-membered chelate rings resulting in a distorted octahedral geometry. The interaction of 1 with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was investigated by spectroscopic measurements and results suggested that the complex binds to CT-DNA via moderate intercalative mode with a binding constant (Kb) around 103 M-1. In addition, the in vitro protein binding behavior was studied by fluorescence spectrophotometric method using both bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA) and a static quenching mechanism was observed for the interaction of the complex with both albumins that occurs with a Kb in the range (5-6) × 103 M-1. In vitro cytotoxicity of complex 1 on lung cancer cells (A549) and human skin carcinoma cell line (A431) demonstrated that the complex had a broad-spectrum of anti-proliferative activity with IC50 value of 64.2 μM and 56.2 μM.

J Xenobiot 2022; 12:307-316. [PMID: 36278758 PMCID: PMC9590079 DOI: 10.3390/jox12040021] [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: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Chromium (Cr) and vanadium (V) are micronutrients playing a role in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism but can be toxic at high concentrations, especially in specific forms. The study documents the effect of Cr and V concentrations on glucose and lipid metabolism in workers exposed to coal fly ash. We quantified selected metals (Cr, V) in the blood and serum of workers from a thermal power plant in Kosovo and compared them with the reference biological values. We determined fasting serum glucose and lipid profiles using a biochemical analyzer Synchron CX7 (Beckman Coulter). We quantified blood and serum Cr and V by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. We also evaluated the association between carbohydrate and lipid metabolism biomarkers (glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides) and co-exposure to coal fly ash. Power plant workers had significantly higher blood Cr and V levels (p < 0.0001) and significantly lower serum Cr and V levels (p < 0.0001) than the controls. We also found statistically significant (p < 0.0001) correlations between high blood Cr levels and low glucose/blood Cr ratios as well as between high serum Cr levels and low glucose/serum Cr ratios. Finally, in power plant workers, high blood V levels significantly correlated with low triglycerides/blood V and cholesterol/blood V ratios (p < 0.0001), while high serum V levels correlated with low cholesterol/serum V ratios (p = 0.005). Based on these findings, we concluded that the glucose/Cr, triglycerides/V and cholesterol/V ratios should be considered when evaluating carbohydrate and lipid metabolism disorders in occupationally-exposed workers.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) have an unparalleled ability to mimic true colors due to their size-tunable optical and electronic properties, which make them the most promising nanoparticles in various fields. Currently, the majority of QDs available in the market are cadmium, indium, and lead-based materials but the toxicity and unstable nature of these QDs restricts their industrial and practical applications. To avoid using heavy metal ions, especially cadmium, the current research is focused on the fabrication of perovskite and vanadate QDs. Herein, we report the facile synthesis of a novel and cost-effective CsVO3 QDs for the first time. The sizes of the CsVO3 QDs produced were tuned from 2 to 10 nm by varying the reaction temperature from 140 to 190 °C. On increasing QD size, a continuous red shift was observed in absorption and emission spectra, signifying the presence of quantum confinement. In addition, along with CsVO3 QDs, the CsVO3 nanosheets self-assembled microflower-like particles were found as residue after the centrifugation; the X-ray diffraction indicated an orthorhombic structure. Under 365 nm excitation, these CsVO3 microflower-like particles exhibited broad emission with CIE coordinates in the white emission region. The acquired results suggest that CsVO3 QDs may represent a new class of cadmium-free materials for optoelectronic and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds have frequently been proposed as therapeutics, but their application has been hampered by the lack of information on the different V-containing species that may form and how these interact with blood and cell proteins, and with enzymes. Herein, we report several resolved crystal structures of lysozyme with bound VIV O2+ and VIV OL2+ , where L=2,2'-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and of trypsin with VIV O(picolinato)2 and VV O2 (phen)+ moieties. Computational studies complete the refinement and shed light on the relevant role of hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, and microsolvation in stabilizating the structure. Noteworthy is that the trypsin-VV O2 (phen) and trypsin-VIV O(OH)(phen) adducts correspond to similar energies, thus suggesting a possible interconversion under physiological/biological conditions. The obtained data support the relevance of hydrolysis of VIV and VV complexes in the several types of binding established with proteins and the formation of different adducts that might contribute to their pharmacological action, and significantly widen our knowledge of vanadium-protein interactions.

Combined Exposure to 33 Trace Elements and Associations With the Risk of Oral Cancer: A Large-Scale Case-Control Study. Front Nutr 2022; 9:913357. [PMID: 35873417 PMCID: PMC9301066 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.913357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Trace elements exist widely in the natural environment and mostly enter the human body through drinking water or various types of food, which has raised increasing health concerns. Exposure to a single or a few trace elements has been previously reported to be associated with oral cancer risk, but studies on other elements and combined effects are limited. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the independent and joint effects of 33 trace elements on oral cancer risk. Methods The concentrations of 33 trace elements from the serum samples of 463 cases and 1,343 controls were measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Propensity score matching was used to minimize the impact of potential confounders. Conditional logistic regression was utilized to evaluate the association of each element individually with oral cancer risk. Quantile g-computation and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) models were used to assess the joint effect of the overall element mixture and interactions. Results In single-element models, essential elements (Cu, Se, Zn, Sr, and Cr) and non-essential elements (As, Li, Th, Ce, Ti, and Sc) showed significant association with oral cancer risk. In multiple-element models, a quartile increase in overall non-essential elements was observed for a significant inverse association with oral cancer risk (β = −3.36, 95% CI: −4.22 to −2.51). The BKMR analysis revealed a potential beneficial joint effect of essential metals on the risk of oral cancer. Among these, higher levels of serum Zn and V exhibited an adverse effect, while serum Sr, Se, and Cu displayed favorable effects when all other essential elements were fixed at 25th or 50th percentiles. Of note, Se performed complex interactions among essential metals. As for non-essential elements, there were greater effect estimates for serum Th, Li, and Y when all other elements were held at the 75th percentile. Conclusion This study provides supportive evidence that the overall mixture effect of essential and non-essential elements might be associated with oral cancer risk, especially for serum Zn, V, Cu, Sr, Se, Th, Li, and Y. Extensive prospective studies and other experiments are warranted to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Vanadium (V) is necessary for the health and growth of animals, but excessive V has harmful effects on the ecosystem health. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondria coupling as a membrane structure connects the mitochondrial outer membrane with the ER. The mitochondria-associated ER membrane (MAM) is a region of the ER-mitochondria coupling and is essential for normal cell function. Currently, the crosstalk between ER-mitochondrial coupling and apoptosis in the toxic mechanism of V on duck kidney is still unclear. In this study, duck renal tubular epithelial cells were incubated with different concentrations of sodium metavanadate (NaVO3) and/or inositol triphosphate receptor (IP3R) inhibitor 2-aminoethyl diphenyl borate (2-APB) for 24 h. The results showed that V could significantly increase lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, the mitochondrial calcium level and the numbers of the fluorescent signal points of IP3R; shortened the length ER-mitochondria coupling and reduced its formation; markedly upregulate the mRNA levels of MAM-related genes and protein levels, causing MAM dysfunction. Additionally, V treatment appeared to upregulate pro-apoptotic genes and downregulate anti-apoptotic genes, followed by cell apoptosis. The V-induced changes were alleviated by treatment with IP3R inhibitor. In summary, V could induce the dysfunction of ER-mitochondrial coupling and apoptosis, and inhibition of ER-mitochondrial coupling could attenuate V-induced apoptosis in duck renal tubular epithelial cells.

Abstract
Effect of prolong use of orthovanadate nanoparticles (GdVO4/Eu3+ NPs (8 × 25 nm)) on life quality and survival of male Wistar rats on the late stage of ontogenesis (from 23 months to the end of life) has been investigated. Multi-parametric assessment of orthovanadate NPs influences against metformin (Met) which is a well-known calorie restriction mimetic (CR-mimetic) has been completed. The quality of life was assessed by taking into account age-related hallmarks-phenotype and some physiological parameters (condition of the coat, body weight, concentration of thyroxine, rectal temperature) as well as indicators of the pro-oxidant/antioxidant balance of blood and liver (the content of lipid hydroperoxides; aconitase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutaredoxin activity, and activity of NADP+-dehydrogenases (DG) (glucose-6-phosphate DG, malate DG, and isocitrate DG)) in aging animals. Kaplan-Meier curve and Gehan tests with Yates' correction were performed for the survival analysis. It has been found that long-term use of GdVO4/Eu3+ NPs (0.25-0.30 mg/kg/day), as well as Met (100-110 mg/kg/day) with drinking water led to reliable improvement of physiological parameters and normalization of the pro-oxidant/antioxidant balance in the liver and blood of experimental animals. A significant increase in the survival rate of aging rats was observed; the apparent median survival for control rats was 900 days, while for experimental rats, 1010 and 990 days for GdVO4/Eu3+ NPs and Met, respectively. In general, the data obtained demonstrate the ability of GdVO4/Eu3+ NPs and CR-mimetic-Met to improve the quality of life and increase the survival of an elderly organism.

Abstract
The increasing biomedical interest in high-stability oxidovanadium(IV) complexes with hydroxypyridinone ligands leads us to investigate the complex formation equilibria of VIVO2+ ion with a tetradentate ligand, named KC21, which contains two 3-hydroxy-1,2-dimethylpyridin-4(1H)-one (deferiprone) moieties, and with the simple bidentate ligand that constitutes the basic unit of KC21, for comparison, named L5. These equilibrium studies were conducted with joined potentiometric–spectrophotometric titrations, and the results were substantiated with EPR measurements at variable pH values. This multi-technique study gave evidence of the formation of an extremely stable 1:1 complex between KC21 and oxidovanadium(IV) at a physiological pH, which could find promising pharmacological applications.

This study aims to evaluate the associations of single ETEs and ETE mixture with cognitive function using a representative sample of community-dwelling older adults in China. METHODS A total of 3814 older adults were included in the study. Urinary concentrations of selenium (Se), vanadium (V), cobalt (Co), strontium (Sr), and molybdenum (Mo) were detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Cognitive function in older adults was assessed using the Chinese version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Linear regression and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) were performed to explore the associations of single ETEs and ETE mixture with cognitive function, respectively. RESULTS Linear regression showed that urinary levels of Se and V were positively associated with MMSE scores in the adjusted single-element models. BKMR also showed marginally positive associations of Se and V with MMSE scores. Moreover, higher urinary levels of ETE mixture were significantly associated with increased MMSE scores in a dose-response pattern, and Se was the most important contributor within the mixture. Both Se and V demonstrated positive additive effects on the associations of other ETEs with MMSE scores, whereas Co had a negative additive effect. CONCLUSIONS V and Se are positively associated with cognitive function, individually and as a mixture. ETE mixture exhibits a linear dose-response association with improved cognitive function, with Se being the most important component within the mixture. Mixture analyses rather than single ETE analyses may provide a real-world perspective on the relationship between ETE mixture and cognitive function. Further cohort studies are needed to clarify the association of multiple ETEs with cognitive function.

Deep understanding of sustainable vanadium recovery from chrome vanadium slag: Promotive action of competitive chromium species for vanadium solvent extraction.

Abstract
The complete separation of vanadium (V) and chromium (Cr) from chrome vanadium slag is still challenging. Many studies focus on the activity of vanadium, while the effect of the other element chromium and their mutual interaction are ignored. Here, we found that proper concentration of chromium can promote the extraction efficiency of vanadium. The extraction of V and Cr with various mass ratios ranging from 8:1-4:3 at different initial pH values using primary amine N1923 were studied. The extraction efficiency of V reached nearly 100%, while none of Cr was extracted when the mass ratio of Cr and V is 0.5 under proper pH. Through the dynamic monitoring of species evolutions during extraction, the transformation of the two metals and advantage extracted species were analyzed. Cr would transfer H+ for the combination of V3O93-/V4O124-, providing a great contribution to the continuous extraction of V. The real leachate was applied and 99.9% vanadium pentoxide was produced at a scale of 50 L/h. This paper offers deep insights of the separation of similar metal elements, and guide sustainable vanadium recovery from hazardous waste.

Abstract
The structure, stability, and enzymatic activity of the adduct formed upon the reaction of the V-picolinato (pic) complex [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], with an octahedral geometry and the water ligand in cis to the V═O group, with the bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A) were studied. While electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, circular dichroism, and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy substantiate the interaction between the metal moiety and RNase A, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) allows us to determine that a carboxylate group, stemming from Asp or Glu residues, and imidazole nitrogen from His residues are involved in the V binding at acidic and physiological pH, respectively. Crystallographic data demonstrate that the VIVO(pic)2 moiety coordinates the side chain of Glu111 of RNase A, by substituting the equatorial water molecule at acidic pH. Computational methods confirm that Glu111 is the most affine residue and interacts favorably with the OC-6-23-Δ enantiomer establishing an extended network of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals stabilizations. By increasing the pH around neutrality, with the deprotonation of histidine side chains, the binding of the V complex to His105 and His119 could occur, with that to His105 which should be preferred when compared to that to the catalytically important His119. The binding of the V compound affects the enzymatic activity of RNase A, but it does not alter its overall structure and stability.

Abstract
The equilibria in the solution of three different oxidovanadium(IV) complexes, VO(dhp)2 (dhp = 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinonato), VO(ma)2 (ma = maltolato) and VO(pic)2(H2O) (pic = picolinato), were examined in the temperature range of 120-352 K through a combination of instrumental (EPR spectroscopy) and computational techniques (DFT methods). The results revealed that a general equilibrium exists: VOL2 + H2O ⇄ cis-VOL2(H2O) ⇄ trans-VOL2(H2O), where cis and trans refer to the relative position of H2O and the oxido ligand. The equilibrium is more or less shifted to the right depending on the ligand, the temperature, the ionic strength and the coordinating properties of the solvent. With VO(dhp)2, only the square pyramidal species exists at 298 K in aqueous solution, while at 120 K the cis- and trans-VO(dhp)2(H2O) species are also present. The complex of maltol exists almost exclusively in the form cis-VO(ma)2(H2O) in aqueous solution at 298 K, while the trans species can be revealed only at higher temperatures, where the EPR linewidth significantly decreases. The equilibria involving 1-methylimidazole (MeIm), a model for the side chain His coordination, are also influenced by temperature, with its coordination being favored by decreasing the temperature. The implications of these results in the study of the (vanadium complex)-protein systems are discussed and the interaction with myoglobin (Mb) is examined as a representative example.

Abstract
The good chelating properties of hydroxypyrone (HPO) derivatives towards oxidovanadium(IV) cation, VIVO2+, constitute the precondition for the development of new insulin-mimetic and anticancer compounds. In the present work, we examined the VIVO2+ complex formation equilibria of two kojic acid (KA) derivatives, L4 and L9, structurally constituted by two kojic acid units linked in position 6 through methylene diamine and diethyl-ethylenediamine, respectively. These chemical systems have been characterized in solution by the combined use of various complementary techniques, as UV-vis spectrophotometry, potentiometry, NMR and EPR spectroscopy, ESI-MS spectrometry, and DFT calculations. The thermodynamic approach allowed proposing a chemical coordination model and the calculation of the complex formation constants. Both ligands L4 and L9 form 1:1 binuclear complexes at acidic and physiological pHs, with various protonation degrees in which two KA units coordinate each VIVO2+ ion. The joined use of different techniques allowed reaching a coherent vision of the complexation models of the two ligands toward oxidovanadium(IV) ion in aqueous solution. The high stability of the formed species and the binuclear structure may favor their biological action, and represent a good starting point toward the design of new pharmacologically active vanadium species.

Abstract
Several reports have revealed the superior biological activity of metal ion-flavonoid complexes when compared with the parent flavonoid. Among the different metal ions explored, vanadium and its compounds are in the forefront because of their anticancer and antidiabetic properties. However, the toxicity of vanadium-based ions and their inorganic derivatives limits their therapeutic applications. Complexation of vanadium with flavonoids not only reduces its adverse effects but also augments its biological activity. This Review discusses the nature of coordination in vanadium-flavonoid complexes, their structure-activity correlations, with special emphasis on their therapeutic activities. Several investigations suggest that the superior biological activity of vanadium complexes arise because of their ability to regulate metabolic pathways distinct from those acted upon by vanadium alone. These studies serve to decipher the underlying molecular mechanism of vanadium-flavonoid complexes that can be explored further for generating a series of novel compounds with improved pharmacological and therapeutic performance.

Abstract
The aim of this report was to evaluate the morphological and biochemical changes in the liver by the inhalation of vanadium and consumption of sweetened beverages in a subchronic murine model. Forty CD-1 male mice were randomly divided into four groups: control, vanadium (V), sucrose 30% (S), and vanadium-sucrose (V + S). V was inhaled (1.4 mg/m3) for 1h, twice/week; 30% sucrose solution was given orally ad libitum. Blood samples were obtained for AST, ALT, and LDH determination. Liver samples were processed for histological and oxidative stress immunohistochemical evaluation with 4-hydroxynonenal at weeks 4 and 8 of exposure. Regarding liver function tests, a statistically significant increase (P < 0.05) was observed in groups V, S, and V + S at weeks 4 and 8 compared to the control group. A greater number of hepatocytes with meganuclei and binuclei were observed in V and V + S at week 8 compared to the other groups. Steatosis and regenerative changes were more extensive in the eighth week V + S group. 4-Hydroxynonenal immunoreactivity increased in the V + S group at both exposure times compared to the other groups; however, the increment was more evident in the V + S group at week 4 compared to the V + S group at week 8. An increase in De Ritis ratio (>1) was noticed in experimental groups at weeks 4 and 8. Findings demonstrate that in the liver, V, S, and V + S induced oxidative stress and regenerative changes that increased with the length of exposure. Results support possible potentiation of liver damage in areas with high air pollution and high-sweetened beverage consumption.

Abstract
The consumption of foods rich in carbohydrates, saturated fat, and sodium, accompanied by a sedentary routine, are factors that contribute to the progress of metabolic syndrome (MS). In this way, they cause the accumulation of body fat, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hyperglycemia. Additionally, MS has been shown to cause oxidative stress, inflammation, and death of neurons in the hippocampus. Consequently, spatial and recognition memory is affected. It has recently been proposed that metformin decavanadate (MetfDeca) exerts insulin mimetic effects that enhance metabolism in MS animals; however, what effects it can cause on the hippocampal neurons of rats with MS are unknown. The objective of the work was to evaluate the effect of MetfDeca on hippocampal neurodegeneration and recognition memory in rats with MS. Administration of MetfDeca for 60 days in MS rats improved object recognition memory (NORt). In addition, MetfDeca reduced markers of oxidative stress and hippocampal neuroinflammation. Accompanied by an increase in the density and length of the dendritic spines of the hippocampus of rats with MS. We conclude that MetfDeca represents an important therapeutic agent to treat MS and induce neuronal and cognitive restoration mechanisms.

Abstract
Anti-angiogenic therapy, targeting vascular endothelial cells (ECs) to prevent tumor growth, has been attracting increasing attention in recent years, beginning with bevacizumab (Avastin) through its Phase II/III clinical trials on solid tumors. However, these trials showed only modest clinical efficiency; moreover, anti-angiogenic therapy may induce acquired resistance to the drugs employed. Combining advanced drug delivery techniques (e.g., nanotechnology) or other therapeutic strategies (e.g., chemotherapy, radiotherapy, phototherapy, and immunotherapy) with anti-angiogenic therapy results in significantly synergistic effects and has opened a new horizon in fighting cancer. Herein, clinical difficulties in using traditional anti-angiogenic therapy are discussed. Then, several promising applications of anti-angiogenic nanoagents in monotherapies and combination therapies are highlighted. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of anti-angiogenic cancer therapy are summarized. A useful introduction to anti-angiogenic strategies, which may significantly improve therapeutic outcomes, is thus provided.

Misinterpretations in Evaluating Interactions of Vanadium Complexes with Proteins and Other Biological Targets. INORGANICS 2021.

Abstract
In aqueous media, VIV- and VV-ions and compounds undergo chemical changes such as hydrolysis, ligand exchange and redox reactions that depend on pH and concentration of the vanadium species, and on the nature of the several components present. In particular, the behaviour of vanadium compounds in biological fluids depends on their environment and on concentration of the many potential ligands present. However, when reporting the biological action of a particular complex, often the possibility of chemical changes occurring has been neglected, and the modifications of the complex added are not taken into account. In this work, we highlight that as soon as most vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V) compounds are dissolved in a biological media, they undergo several types of chemical transformations, and these changes are particularly extensive at the low concentrations normally used in biological experiments. We also emphasize that in case of a biochemical interaction or effect, to determine binding constants or the active species and/or propose mechanisms of action, it is essential to evaluate its speciation in the media where it is acting. This is because the vanadium complex no longer exists in its initial form.

Abstract
Aging is a leading cause of mortality for the elderly and DNA methylation age is reported to be predictive of biological aging. However, few studies have investigated the associations between multiple metals exposure and accelerated aging in the elderly. We performed a pilot study of 288 elderly participants aged 50-115 years and measured genome-wide DNA methylation and 22 blood metals concentrations. Measures of DNA methylation age were estimated using CpGs from Illumina HumanMethylation EPIC BeadChip. Linear mixed regression and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) models were used to estimate the individual and overall associations between multiple metals and accelerated methylation aging. Single metal models revealed that each 1-standard deviance (SD) increase in log-transformed vanadium, cobalt, nickel, zinc, arsenic, and barium was associated with a -2.256, -1.318, 1.004, -1.926, 1.910 and -1.356 changes in ΔAge, respectively; meanwhile, for aging rate, the change was -0.019, -0.013, 0.010, -0.018, 0.023, and -0.012, respectively (all P < 0.05). The BKMR models showed reverse U-shaped associations of the overall metals mixture with ΔAge and aging rate. Downward trends of ΔAge and aging rate were observed for increasing quantiles of essential metals mixture, but upward trends were observed for non-essential metals mixture. Further individual analysis of the BKMR revealed that the 95% confidence interval of ΔAge and aging rate associated with vanadium, zinc, and arsenic did not cross 0, when other metals concentrations set at 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile. Our findings suggest reverse U-shaped associations of the overall metals mixture with accelerated methylation aging for the first time, and vanadium, zinc, and arsenic may be major contributors driving the associations.

Therapeutic potential of vanadium complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline ligands, quo vadis? Fate of complexes in cell media and cancer cells. J Inorg Biochem 2021; 217:111350. [PMID: 33477088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2020.111350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2020] [Revised: 12/15/2020] [Accepted: 12/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
VIVO-complexes formulated as [VIVO(OSO3)(phen)2] (1) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), [VIVO(OSO3)(Me2phen)2] (2) (Me2phen = 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and [VIVO(OSO3)(amphen)2] (3) (amphen = 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline) were prepared and stability in cell incubation media evaluated. Their cytotoxicity was determined against the A2780 (ovarian), MCF7 (breast) and PC3 (prostate) human cancer cells at different incubation times. While at 3 and 24 h the cytotoxicity differs for complexes and corresponding free ligands, at 72 h incubation all compounds are equally active presenting low IC50 values. Upon incubation of A2780 cells with 1-3, cellular distribution of vanadium in cytosol, membranes, nucleus and cytoskeleton, indicate that the uptake of V is low, particularly for 1, and that the uptake pattern depends on the ligand. Nuclear microscopic techniques are used for imaging and elemental quantification in whole PC3 cells incubated with 1. Once complexes are added to cell culture media, they decompose, and with time most VIV oxidizes to VV-species. Modeling of speciation when [VIVO(OSO3)(phen)2] (1) is added to cell media is presented. At lower concentrations of 1, VIVO- and phen-containing species are mainly bound to bovine serum albumin, while at higher concentrations [VIVO(phen)n]2+-complexes become relevant, being predicted that the species taken up and mechanisms of action operating depend on the total concentration of complex. This study emphasizes that for these VIVO-systems, and probably for many others involving oxidovanadium or other labile metal complexes, it is not possible to identify active species or propose mechanisms of cytotoxic action without evaluating speciation occurring in cell media.

Abstract
The experimental data collected over the past 15 years on the interaction of decavanadate(V) (V10O286-; V10), a polyoxometalate (POM) with promising anticancer and antibacterial action, with G-actin, were rationalized by using several computational approaches (docking, density functional theory (DFT), and molecular dynamics (MD)). Moreover, a comparison with the isostructural and more stable decaniobate(V) (Nb10O286-; Nb10) was carried out. Four binding sites were identified, named α, β, γ, and δ, the site α being the catalytic nucleotide site located in the cleft of the enzyme at the interface of the subdomains II and IV. It was observed that the site α is preferred by V10, whereas Nb10 is more stable at the site β; this indicates that, differently from other proteins, G-actin could contemporaneously bind the two POMs, whose action would be synergistic. Both decavanadate and decaniobate induce conformational rearrangements in G-actin, larger for V10 than Nb10. Moreover, the binding mode of oxidovanadium(IV) ion, VIVO2+, formed upon the reduction of decavanadate(V) by the -SH groups of accessible cysteine residues, is also found in the catalytic site α with (His161, Asp154) coordination; this adduct overlaps significantly with the region where ATP is bound, accounting for the competition between V10 and its reduction product VIVO2+ with ATP, as previously observed by EPR spectroscopy. Finally, the competition with ATP was rationalized: since decavanadate prefers the nucleotide site α, Ca2+-ATP displaces V10 from this site, while the competition is less important for Nb10 because this POM shows a higher affinity for β than for site α. A relevant consequence of this paper is that other metallodrug-protein systems, in the absence or presence of eventual inhibitors and/or competition with molecules of the organism, could be studied with the same approach, suggesting important elements for an explanation of the biological data and a rational drug design.

Abstract
In the past few decades, various vanadium compounds have displayed potential in cancer treatment. However, fast clearness in the body and possible toxicity of vanadium compounds has hindered their further development. Vanadium-based nanomaterials not only overcome these limitations, but take advantage of the internal properties of vanadium in photics and magnetics, which enable them as a multimodal platform for cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, we first introduced the basic biological and pharmacological functions of vanadium compounds in treating cancer. Then, the synthesis routes of three vanadium-based nanomaterials were discussed, including vanadium oxides, 2D vanadium sulfides, carbides and nitrides: VmXn (X = S, C, N) and water-insoluble vanadium salts. Finally, we highlighted the applications of these vanadium-based nanomaterials as tumor therapeutic and diagnostic agents.

Abstract
The discovery of new alternatives for the treatment of infectious diseases has become the focus of burgeoning global interest. The complexation of the wide-spectrum antibiotic nalidixic acid (NA) with oxidovanadium(IV) ion and its incorporation into hybrid nanoparticulate systems were explored. The V-NA complex proved to be a stronger antimicrobial agent against E. coli, B. cereus, S. aureus and P. aeruginosa than NA, based on inhibition experiments. Myristyl myristate nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) and polymeric nanoparticles of Eudragit NE30D (EuNPs) were hybridized with chitosan (chi) to increase their stability and mucoadhesivity. They showed V-NA encapsulation of 97.8 ± 0.5% and 96.1 ± 0.1% respectively. TEM and DLS characterization ascertained the presence of spherical positive charged NPs ranging from 170 to 330 nm. Controlled release of V-NA from NPs was observed with 30-40% release in 3 days. A considerable potentiation of V-NA antimicrobial activity from 5 to 10 times was elucidated against P. aeruginosa with MIC values of 59.3 and 129.9 μM for NLC/chi and EuNPs/chi respectively, in comparison with 625 μM of the free complex. Hybrid NPs were able to interfere with the quorum sensing of the reporter Chromobacterium violaceum. Cytotoxicity on mouse fibroblast L929 cells was evaluated in the range of 29.7-519 μM by MTT assay showing that, NLC/chi particles supported cell growth in the range of at 29.7-60 μM while Eu/chi do not exert cytotoxicity between 29.7 and 120 μM. These results suggest that nanoparticles are suitable systems for drug delivery applications.

Abstract
In this study, the binding to lysozyme (Lyz) of four important VIV compounds with antidiabetic and/or anticancer activity, [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], [VIVO(ma)2], [VIVO(dhp)2], and [VIVO(acac)2], where pic-, ma-, dhp-, and acac- are picolinate, maltolate, 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridinonate, and acetylacetonate anions, and of the vanadium-containing natural product amavadin ([VIV(hidpa)2]2-, with hidpa3- N-hydroxyimino-2,2'-diisopropionate) was investigated by ElectroSpray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS). Moreover, the interaction of [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)], chosen as a representative VIVO2+ complex, was examined with two additional proteins, myoglobin (Mb) and ubiquitin (Ub), to compare the data. The examined vanadium concentration was in the range 15-150 μM, i.e., very close to that found under physiological conditions. With pic-, dhp-, and hidpa3-, the formation of adducts n[VIVOL2]-Lyz or n[VIVL2]-Lyz is favored, while with ma- and acac- the species n[VIVOL]-Lyz are detected, with n dependent on the experimental VIV/protein ratio. The behavior of the systems with [VIVO(pic)2(H2O)] and Mb or Ub is very similar to that of Lyz. The results suggested that under physiological conditions, the moiety cis-VIVOL2 (L = pic-, dhp-) is bound by only one accessible side-chain protein residue that can be Asp, Glu, or His, while VIVOL+ (L = ma-, acac-) can interact with the two equatorial and axial sites. If the VIV complex is thermodynamically stable and does not have available coordination positions, such as amavadin, the protein cannot interact with it through the formation of coordination bonds and, in such cases, noncovalent interactions are predicted. The formation of the adducts is dependent on the thermodynamic stability and geometry in aqueous solution of the VIVO2+ complex and affects the transport, uptake, and mechanism of action of potential V drugs.

Abstract
The preparation of a novel polymer (poly(dopamine quinone-vanadyl) (polyDQV)) bearing dopaminequinone and VOIV redox groups is described. PolyDQV was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy as well as electrochemical methods such as differential pulse voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrocatalytic activity of polyDQV was studied toward electrooxidation of uric acid using differential pulse voltammetry as well as cyclic voltammetry. PolyDQV presents interesting electrocatalytic activity toward UA oxidation in phosphate buffer solution (0.1 M, pH 2) to a well-defined oxidation peak at 0.65 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The polyDQV-modified carbon paste electrode (CPE/polyDQV) presents a precise linear signal-concentration relationship in the ranges of 0.3-5 μM and 5 to 200 μM with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.02 μM. The %RSD values for ten replicate measurements of 0.5 and 50 μM UA were 1.8 and 3%, respectively, indicating good repeatability of analytical signals. Appropriate recovery values (in the range 96 to 103%) and good selectivity for UA over common coexisting species (such as ascorbic acid and dopamine) exhibit that CPE/polyDQV is a promising novel platform for sensing UA in human blood serum and urine samples.

Abstract
Among vanadium compounds with potential medicinal applications, [VIVO(acac)2] is one of the most promising for its antidiabetic and anticancer activity. In the organism, however, interconversion of the oxidation state to +III and +V and binding to proteins are possible. In this report, the transformation of VIII(acac)3, VIVO(acac)2, and VVO2(acac)2- after the interaction with two model proteins, lysozyme (Lyz) and ubiquitin (Ub), was studied with ESI-MS (ElectroSpray Ionization-Mass Spectroscopy), EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance), and computational (docking) techniques. It was shown that, in the metal concentration range close to that found in the organism (15–250 μM), VIII(acac)3 is oxidized to VIVO(acac)+ and VIVO(acac)2, which—in their turn—interact with proteins to give n[VIVO(acac)]–Protein and n[VIVO(acac)2]–Protein adducts. Similarly, the complex in the +IV oxidation state, VIVO(acac)2, dissociates to the mono-chelated species VIVO(acac)+ which binds to Lyz and Ub. Finally, VVO2(acac)2- undergoes complete dissociation to give the 'bare' VVO2+ ion that forms adducts n[VVO2]–Protein with n = 1–3. Docking calculations allowed the prediction of the residues involved in the metal binding. The results suggest that only the VIVO complex of acetylacetonate survives in the presence of proteins and that its adducts could be the species responsible of the observed pharmacological activity, suggesting that in these systems VIVO2+ ion should be used in the design of potential vanadium drugs. If VIII or VVO2 potential active complexes had to be designed, the features of the organic ligand must be adequately modulated to obtain species with high redox and thermodynamic stability to prevent oxidation and dissociation.

Abstract
In recent days, vanadium complexes and nanoparticles have received sustainable attention owing to their vast applications in different fields. In the present study, we report a facile approach for the synthesis of irregular dumbbell shaped vanadium pentoxide nanoparticles (V2O5 NPs: 30-60 nm) via the polyol-induced microwave irradiation process along with calcination. The as-synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using various physico-chemical techniques (e.g. XRD, TEM, FT-IR, DLS and XPS). The cell viability assay showed that V2O5 NPs could efficiently inhibit the proliferation of different cancer cells (B16F10, A549, and PANC1), depicting their anti-proliferative activity. However, V2O5 NPs did not exert significant cytotoxicity to the normal cells (CHO, HEK-293 and NRK-49F), suggesting their biocompatible nature. Interestingly, these nanoparticles inhibited the proliferation and migration of the endothelial cells (HUVECs and EA.hy926) and disrupted the blood vasculature in a chick embryo model, indicating their anti-angiogenic properties. The mechanistic study revealed that the effective internalization of V2O5 NPs generated intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) which in turn up-regulated p53 protein and down-regulated survivin protein in cancer cells, leading to the apoptosis process. Furthermore, the administration of V2O5 NPs to melanoma bearing C57BL6/J mice significantly increased their survivability as compared to the control untreated tumor bearing mice, exhibiting the therapeutic potential of the nanoparticles against melanoma. Additionally, the in vivo toxicity study demonstrated no toxic effect in mice upon sub-chronic exposure to V2O5 NPs. Altogether, we strongly believe that V2O5 NPs could intrinsically provide a new direction for alternative therapeutic treatment strategies for melanoma and other cancers by employing their anti-angiogenic properties in the future.

Abstract
The dietary requirement for an essential trace element is an intake level which meets a specified criterion for adequacy and thereby minimizes risk of nutrient deficiency or excess. Disturbances in trace element homeostasis may result in the development of pathologic states and diseases. This article is an update of a review article “Trace Elements in Human Nutrition-A Review” previously published in 2013. The previous review was updated to emphasis in detail the importance of known trace elements so far in humans’ physiology and nutrition and also to implement the detailed information for practical and effective management of trace elements’ status in clinical diagnosis and health care situations. Although various classifications for trace elements have been proposed and may be controversial, this review will use World Health Organization( WHO) classification as previously done. For this review a traditional integrated review format was chosen and many recent medical and scientific literatures for the new findings on bioavailability, functions, and state of excess/deficiency of trace elements were assessed. The results indicated that for the known essential elements, essentiality and toxicity are unrelated and toxicity is a matter of dose or exposure. Little is known about the essentiality of some of the probably essential elements. In regard to toxic heavy metals, a toxic element may nevertheless be essential. In addition, the early pathological manifestations of trace elements deficiency or excess are difficult to detect until more specific pathologically relevant indicators become available. Discoveries and many refinements in the development of new techniques and continual improvement in laboratory methods have enabled researchers to detect the early pathological consequences of deficiency or excess of trace elements. They all are promises to fulfill the gaps in the present and future research and clinical diagnosis of trace elements deficiencies or intoxications. However, further investigations are needed to complete the important gaps in our knowledge on trace elements, especially probably essential trace elements’ role in health and disease status.

Abstract
This review article is an attempt to summarize the current state of knowledge of the impact of Vanadium (V) on Oxidative Stress (OS) markers in vivo. It shows the results of our studies and studies conducted by other researchers on the influence of different V compounds on the level of selected Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)/Free Radicals (FRs), markers of Lipid peroxidation (LPO), as well as enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. It also presents the impact of ROS/peroxides on the activity of antioxidant enzymes modulated by V and illustrates the mechanisms of the inactivation thereof caused by this metal and reactive oxygen metabolites. It also focuses on the mechanisms of interaction of V with some nonenzymatic compounds of the antioxidative system. Furthermore, we review the routes of generation of oxygen-derived FRs and non-radical oxygen derivatives (in which V is involved) as well as the consequences of FR-mediated LPO (induced by this metal) together with the negative/ positive effects of LPO products. A brief description of the localization and function of some antioxidant enzymes and low-molecular-weight antioxidants, which are able to form complexes with V and play a crucial role in the metabolism of this element, is presented as well. The report also shows the OS historical background and OS markers (determined in animals under V treatment) on a timeline, collects data on interactions of V with one of the elements with antioxidant potential, and highlights the necessity and desirability of conducting studies of mutual interactions between V and antioxidant elements.
