RESUMO

The interaction between a DPP-4 inhibitor, alogliptin benzoate (AB), and human serum albumin (HSA) was systematically investigated via spectroscopy, microcalorimetry and molecular simulations. Steady-state fluorescence and time-resolved fluorescence spectrometry illustrated that the fluorescence quenching type of AB to HSA was static and caused by the formation of ground state AB-HSA complex. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) combined with fluorescence spectra revealed that the affinity of AB to the subdomain IIA of HSA was moderate with a binding constant in the order of 104. Molecular docking analysis and thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that this combination was maintained by hydrogen bonding along with van der Waals force and hydrophobic force. Circular dichroism and three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence showed that AB increased the hydrophobicity of Trp residue and the α-helix content of HSA by 1.99%. Microdifferential scanning calorimetry revealed that the addition of AB enhanced the thermal stability of HSA. The action forces, binding stability, binding sites, and protein structure of the AB-HSA system were evaluated via molecular dynamics analysis in the simulated environment. On the basis of molecular docking, MD simulation constructed a more reliable 3D model of the AB-HSA complex in terms of spatial structure.

RESUMO

Ertugliflozin is a potent and selective inhibitor of sodium-dependent glucose cotransporters 2 (SGLT2) and used as a monotherapy to improve glycemic control in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. In this study, ertugliflozin binding to human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated by multispectroscopic and computer simulations. The fluorescence spectra demonstrated that the quenching mechanism of ertugliflozin and HSA was static quenching. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces played a key role in the binding. Fluorescence competition experiments and molecular docking revealed that ertugliflozin bound to HSA sites II. In three-dimensional fluorescence, circular dichroism spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulation, ertugliflozin did not affect the basic skeleton structure of HSA but slightly increased the α-helical structure content and changed the microenvironment around amino acid residues. Results provide valuable information on the basis of the interaction of ertugliflozin with HSA.

RESUMO

The interaction mechanism and binding mode of capecitabine with ctDNA was extensively investigated using docking and molecular dynamics simulations, fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, DNA thermal denaturation studies, and viscosity measurements. The possible binding mode and acting forces on the combination between capecitabine and DNA had been predicted through molecular simulation. Results indicated that capecitabine could relatively locate stably in the G-C base-pairs-rich DNA minor groove by hydrogen bond and several weaker nonbonding forces. Fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetime measurements confirmed that the quenching was static caused by ground state complex formation. This phenomenon indicated the formation of a complex between capecitabine and ctDNA. Fluorescence data showed that the binding constants of the complex were approximately 2 × 104 M-1. Calculated thermodynamic parameters suggested that hydrogen bond was the main force during binding, which were consistent with theoretical results. Moreover, CD spectroscopy, DNA melting studies, and viscosity measurements corroborated a groove binding mode of capecitabine with ctDNA. This binding had no effect on B-DNA conformation.

RESUMO

The binding properties between γ-lactone essences and HSA were investigated to explore interactional mechanism and influence of ligand side chains on binding via computer simulations, microscopy, and multiple-spectroscopies. Docking and molecular dynamics presented protein recognition mode with low fluctuations. NMR analysis revealed that the lactone ring of ligands was the main group bound to HSA. UV-vis and lifetime results revealed that the combination was static quenching mechanism with binding constants of 102-103 L/mol. FTIR and CD spectra showed conformational changes in the protein secondary structure induced by ligands. Side chains affect the binding process through steric hindrance and hydrophobicity. AFM images showed the four compounds caused different effects on molecular size of HSA. In conclusion, the binding ability and the protein secondary structure changes had a positive correlation with the length of side chain. These studies are beneficial for understanding the safety and biological action of γ-lactone essences.

RESUMO

Sitafloxacin (STFX) is a new generation of broad-spectrum oral fluoroquinolones. STFX has significantly enhanced antibacterial activity than most similar drugs. Clinically, this drug is mainly used to treat respiratory and urinary tract infections and other serious bacterial infections. In this study, the interaction between sitafloxacin and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated by spectroscopic methods and molecular simulations. Fluorescence quenching experiments showed that the interaction mechanism between STFX and HSA was static quenching, which was confirmed by time-resolved fluorescence. Thermodynamic parameters and docking results indicated that hydrophobic and electrostatic forces played a key role in this mechanism. Probe experiments and molecular docking results indicated that the major binding of STFX was at site I. 3D fluorescence showed that the insertion of STFX had minimal impact on the microenvironment. Analysis of the protein secondary structure showed that the insertion of STFX had little effect on the secondary structure of the protein. Hydrophobicity experiments showed the slight decrease in the overall hydrophobicity index of the system. Molecular dynamics simulations further validated the stability of the HSA-STFX complex. This study are useful for further drug development, in vivo toxicity studies, and can provide guidance for the clinical application of STFX to study its pharmacokinetic properties.

RESUMO

This study aimed to develop a novel sustained release system for mesalazine (MSZ) by preparing hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin (HP-ß-CD) inclusion complex loaded chitosan (CS) nanoparticles (NPs). The HP-ß-CD/MSZ complex was prepared at 1:1 stoichiometry and characterized by using various analysis techniques. The HP-ß-CD/MSZ/CS NPs prepared under the optimum condition had a spherical shape (90±17 nm diameter), a narrow size distribution, and a high loading efficiency. Compared with free MSZ, the HP-ß-CD/MSZ/CS NPs exhibited an obvious sustained release of MSZ. The activity of the NPs against a cytokine-triggered inflammatory response was evaluated in cytokine-stimulated HT-29 cell lines by monitoring key inflammatory mediators. The results revealed that compared with free MSZ, the NPs more strongly inhibited the production of NO, PGE2, and IL-8, indicating the NPs possibly had better anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, the established HP-ß-CD/MSZ/CS NPs may be a promising delivery system of MSZ.

RESUMO

This study aims to investigate the interaction mechanism of a hypoglycemic agent, trelagliptin (TLP), and human serum albumin (HSA) through computer simulation and assisted spectroscopy methods. Computer simulation including molecular docking and molecular dynamics analysis was conducted under physiological conditions. Molecular docking results indicate that TLP bound to HSA at site I, and the binding behavior was mainly governed by hydrophobic force. Competitive experiments further verified the theoretical conclusion from molecular docking. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed that TLP indeed stably bound to site I of HSA in the hydrophobic subdomain IIA. Moreover, TLP presented a certain effect on the structural compactness of HSA. In molecular dynamics simulation, hydrogen bonds appeared, which suggested the reliability and stability of the combination. The binding energy of the stable phase is around -250 kJ/mol. Fluorescence quenching studies and time-resolved fluorescence analysis indicated that the evident fluorescence quenching phenomenon of HSA could be due to TLP binding initiated by static quenching mechanism. The binding constants (Ka) of the complex were found to be around 104 via fluorescence data, and the calculated thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrophobic force played major role in the binding of TLP to HSA. Synchronous fluorescence and three-dimensional fluorescence results demonstrated that TLP slightly disturbed the microenvironment of amino residues. Circular dichroism spectra showed that TLP affected the secondary structure of HSA. The theoretical and experimental results showed excellent agreement.

RESUMO

Trametinib is a novel anticancer drug for treating metastatic cutaneous melanoma. The present study probed into the binding of trametinib to human serum albumin (HSA) through spectroscopy methods and molecular simulations. Trametinib could quench the fluorescence of HSA through static quenching which could be probed via fluorescence spectroscopy and time-resolved fluorescence. Thermodynamic parameters and docking results indicated that hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces play crucial roles in this binding process, which exerts almost no effect on the HSA conformation under synchronous fluorescence, three-dimensional fluorescence, circular dichroism spectra, and molecular dynamics simulations. Site marker displacement experiments and molecular docking reveal that trametinib primarily binds to Sudlow site I of HSA. In addition, the trametinib-HSA interaction was hardly influenced by varying amino acid (glutamine, alanine, glycine, and valine) concentrations. This study can provide useful information for the pharmacokinetic properties of trametinib.

RESUMO

Thiabendazole (TBZ) is a commonly used food preservative and has a wide range of anthelmintic properties. In this study, computer simulations and experiments were conducted to investigate the interaction mechanism of TBZ and herring sperm DNA (hsDNA) at the molecular level. Molecular docking showed that TBZ interacted with DNA in groove mode and bound in A-T and C-G base pair regions. Molecular dynamics (MD) was used to evaluate the stability of the TBZ-DNA complex and found that the three phases in MD and the hydrogen bonds helped maintain the combination. NMR relaxation indicated that TBZ had a certain affinity to hsDNA with a binding constant of 462.43 L mol-1, and the thiazole ring was the main group bound with DNA. Results obtained from fluorescence experiments showed that the binding of TBZ and hsDNA was predominantly driven by enthalpy through a static quenching mechanism. Circular dichroism and viscosity measurements proved the groove binding mode. The FTIR results clarified the conformational changes of DNA, that the DNA helix became shorter and compact, and the DNA structure transformed from B-form to A-form.

RESUMO

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.
