Mitochondria-Localized Fluorescent BODIPY-Platinum Conjugate.

ABSTRACT: A convenient synthesis of a BODIPY (1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-(4-pyridyl)-4,4'-difluoroboradiazaindacene) labeled platinum compound (BODIPY-Pt) was developed by direct conjugation of cisplatin with the pyridine group of BODIPY. The membrane permeability and selective uptake of BODIPY-Pt in the mitochondria was studied using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). The fluorescent BODIPY-Pt conjugate showed high cellular proliferation inhibition against human cervical carcinoma (HeLa) and human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells, with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 27.37 and 12.14 ?M, respectively. This work highlights the potential of using BODIPY labeled Pt compounds to realize the visualization of Pt distribution in living cells.

BODIPY-based fluorescent liposomes with sesquiterpene lactone trilobolide.

Project description:Like thapsigargin, which is undergoing clinical trials, trilobolide is a natural product with promising anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. Similar to thapsigargin, it has limited aqueous solubility that strongly reduces its potential medicinal applications. The targeted delivery of hydrophobic drugs can be achieved using liposome-based carriers. Therefore, we designed a traceable liposomal drug delivery system for trilobolide. The fluorescent green-emitting dye BODIPY, cholesterol and trilobolide were used to create construct 6. The liposomes were composed of dipalmitoyl-3-trimethylammoniumpropane and phosphatidylethanolamine. The whole system was characterized by atomic force microscopy, the average size of the liposomes was 150 nm in width and 30 nm in height. We evaluated the biological activity of construct 6 and its liposomal formulation, both of which showed immunomodulatory properties in primary rat macrophages. The uptake and intracellular distribution of construct 6 and its liposomal formulation was monitored by means of live-cell fluorescence microscopy in two cancer cell lines. The encapsulation of construct 6 into the liposomes improved the drug distribution in cancer cells and was followed by cell death. This new liposomal trilobolide derivative not only retains the biological properties of pure trilobolide, but also enhances the bioavailability, and thus has potential for the use in theranostic applications.

Fluorescent visualization of Src by using dasatinib-BODIPY.

Project description:Many biological experiments are not compatible with the use of immunofluorescence, genetically encoded fluorescent tags, or FRET-based reporters. Conjugation of existing kinase inhibitors to cell-permeable fluorophores can provide a generalized approach to develop fluorescent probes of intracellular kinases. Here, we report the development of a small molecule probe of Src through conjugation of BODIPY to two well-established dual Src-Abl kinase inhibitors, dasatinib and saracatinib. We show that this approach is not successful for saracatinib but that dasatinib-BODIPY largely retains the biological activity of its parent compound and can be used to monitor the presence of Src kinase in individual cells by flow cytometry. It can also be used to track the localization of Src by fixed and live-cell fluorescence microscopy. This strategy could enable generation of additional kinase-specific probes useful in systems not amenable to genetic manipulation or could be used together with fluorescent proteins to enable a multiplexed assay readout.

BODIPY-Based Fluorescent Probes for Sensing Protein Surface-Hydrophobicity.

Project description:Mapping surface hydrophobic interactions in proteins is key to understanding molecular recognition, biological functions, and is central to many protein misfolding diseases. Herein, we report synthesis and application of new BODIPY-based hydrophobic sensors (HPsensors) that are stable and highly fluorescent for pH values ranging from 7.0 to 9.0. Surface hydrophobic measurements of proteins (BSA, apomyoglobin, and myoglobin) by these HPsensors display much stronger signal compared to 8-anilino-1-naphthalene sulfonic acid (ANS), a commonly used hydrophobic probe; HPsensors show a 10- to 60-fold increase in signal strength for the BSA protein with affinity in the nanomolar range. This suggests that these HPsensors can be used as a sensitive indicator of protein surface hydrophobicity. A first principle approach is used to identify the molecular level mechanism for the substantial increase in the fluorescence signal strength. Our results show that conformational change and increased molecular rigidity of the dye due to its hydrophobic interaction with protein lead to fluorescence enhancement.

A BODIPY-picolinium-cation conjugate as a blue-light-responsive caged group.

Project description:Caged compounds protected with photolabile protecting groups (PPGs) are useful for controlling various biological events with high spatiotemporal resolution. Most of the commonly used PPGs are controlled by ultraviolet light irradiation, but it is desirable to have PPGs controlled by visible light irradiation in order to minimize tissue damage. Here, we describe a boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-picolinium conjugate (BPc group) that functions as a blue-light-controllable PPG. ESR experiments indicate that the photolysis mechanism is based on intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer. We illustrate the applicability of the BPc group to biologically active compounds by employing it firstly to photocontrol release of histamine, and secondly to photocontrol release of a soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) activator, GSK2181236A, which induces photovasodilation. The BPc group is expected to be a useful PPG for controlling various biological events with blue light irradiation.

Structurally Characterized BODIPY-Appended Oxidovanadium(IV) ?-Diketonates for Mitochondria-Targeted Photocytotoxicity.

Project description:Mixed-ligand oxidovanadium(IV) ?-diketonates having NNN-donor dipicolylamine-conjugated to boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY in L1) and diiodo-BODIPY (in L2) moieties, namely, [VO(L1)(acac)]Cl (1), [VO(L2)(acac)]Cl (2), and [VO(L1)(dbm)]Cl (3), where acac and dbm are monoanionic O,O-donor acetylacetone and 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione, were prepared, characterized, and tested for their photoinduced anticancer activity in visible light. Complexes 1 and 2 were structurally characterized as their PF6 - salts (1a and 2a) by X-ray crystallography. They showed VIVN3O3 six-coordinate geometry with dipicolylamine base as the facial ligand. The non-iodinated BODIPY complexes displayed absorption maxima at ?501 nm, while it is ?535 nm for the di-iodinated 2 in 10% DMSO-PBS buffer medium (pH = 7.2). Complexes 1 and 3 being green emissive (?em, ?512 nm; ?ex, 470 nm; ?F, ?0.10) in 10% aqueous DMSO were used for cellular imaging studies. Complex 3 localized primarily in the mitochondria of the cervical HeLa cells with a co-localization coefficient value of 0.7. The non-emissive diiodo-BODIPY complex 2 showed generation of singlet oxygen (?? ? 0.47) on light activation. Annexin-V assay showed singlet oxygen-mediated cellular apoptosis, making this complex a targeted PDT agent.

A Platinum(IV) Prodrug-Perfluoroaryl Macrocyclic Peptide Conjugate Enhances Platinum Uptake in the Brain.

Project description:Effective delivery to the brain limits the development of novel glioblastoma therapies. Here, we introduce conjugation between platinum(IV) prodrugs of cisplatin and perfluoroaryl peptide macrocycles to increase brain uptake. We demonstrate that one such conjugate shows efficacy against glioma stem-like cells. We investigate the pharmacokinetics of this conjugate in mice and show that the amount of platinum in the brain after treatment with the conjugate is 15-fold greater than with cisplatin after 5 h.

Synthesis of Functional Fluorescent BODIPY-based Dyes through Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution: Straightforward Approach towards Customized Fluorescent Probes.

Project description:Fluorescent materials are widely used in biological and material applications as probes for imaging or sensing; however, their customization is usually complicated without the support of an organic chemistry laboratory. Here, we present a straightforward method for the customization of BODIPY cores, which are among the most commonly used fluorescent probes. The method is based on the formation of a new C-C bond through Friedel-Crafts electrophilic aromatic substitution carried out at room temperature. The method presented can be used to obtain completely customized fluorescent materials in one or two steps from commercially available compounds. Examples of the preparation of fluorescent materials for cell staining and functionalization of silica colloids are also presented.

Design, synthesis and characterization of peptidomimetic conjugate of BODIPY targeting HER2 protein extracellular domain.

Project description:Among the EGFRs, HER2 is a major heterodimer partner and also has important implications in the formation of particular tumors. Interaction of HER2 protein with other EGFR proteins can be modulated by small molecule ligands and, hence, these protein-protein interactions play a key role in biochemical reactions related to control of cell growth. A peptidomimetic (compound 5-1) that binds to HER2 protein extracellular domain and inhibits protein-protein interactions of EGFRs was conjugated with BODIPY (4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene). Conjugation of BODIPY to the peptidomimetic was investigated by different approaches. The conjugate was characterized for its ability to bind to HER2 overexpressing SKBR-3 and BT-474 cells. Furthermore, cellular uptake of conjugate of BODIPY was studied in the presence of membrane tracker and Lyso tracker using confocal microscopy. Our results suggested that fluorescently labeled compound 5-7 binds to the extracellular domain and stays in the membrane for nearly 24 h. After 24 h there is an indication of internalization of the conjugate. Inhibition of protein-protein interaction and downstream signaling effect of compound 5-1 was also studied by proximity ligation assay and Western blot analysis. Results suggested that compound 5-1 inhibit protein-protein interactions of HER2-HER3 and phosphorylation of HER2 in a time-dependent manner.
