Macro- and Nanoscale Effect of Ethanol on Bovine Serum Albumin Gelation and Naproxen Release.

ABSTRACT: We report extended ethanol-induced gelation procedures of bovine serum albumin (BSA) at 37 °C and investigate the release behavior of a spin-labeled naproxen derivative (SL-NPX) from these hydrogels. The macroscopic mechanical properties of these gels during formation were studied using rheology, while a nanoscopic, more molecular view was obtained by analyzing the secondary structure of the protein during gelation via infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy. To evaluate the potential use of BSA hydrogels in controlled drug delivery, SL-NPX-BSA interaction was investigated in detail by continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (CW EPR) spectroscopy, which provides information on the interaction of the small drug molecules and the hydrogel. In addition to CW EPR spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), which provides insight into the size and nature of released components, was applied to characterize the combined influence of incubation time, ethanol, SL-drug, and BSA concentration on release behavior. It was found that the alteration of initial drug loading percentage, hydrogel incubation time as well as BSA and alcohol concentrations affect and thus tune the release rate of SL-NPX from BSA hydrogels. These results lead to the conclusion that BSA hydrogels as controlled release systems offer a remarkable fine-tuning capability for pharmaceutical applications due to the variety of gelation parameters.

Electrically polarized biphasic calcium phosphates: adsorption and release of bovine serum albumin.

Project description:In this study, we applied electrical polarization technique to increase adsorption and control protein release from biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP). Three different biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) composites, with hydroxyapatite (HAp) and ?-tricalcium phosphate (?-TCP), were processed and electrically polarized. Our study showed that stored charge was increased in the composites with the increase in HAp percentage. Adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA), as a model protein, on the poled as well as unpoled surfaces of the composites was studied. The highest amount of BSA adsorption was obtained on positively poled surfaces of each composite. Adsorption isotherm study suggested a multilayer adsorption of BSA on the BCP composites. The effect of electrical polarization on BSA release kinetics from positively charged BCP surfaces was studied. A gradual increase in percent BSA release from positively charged BCP surfaces with decreasing stored charge was observed. Our study showed that the BCP based composites have the potential to be used as a drug or growth factor delivery vehicle.

Effect of Tetraphenylborate on Physicochemical Properties of Bovine Serum Albumin.

Project description:The binding interactions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with tetraphenylborate ions ([B(Ph)4]-) have been investigated by a set of experimental methods (isothermal titration calorimetry, steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and circular dichroism spectroscopy) and molecular dynamics-based computational approaches. Two sets of structurally distinctive binding sites in BSA were found under the experimental conditions (10 mM cacodylate buffer, pH 7, 298.15 K). The obtained results, supported by the competitive interactions experiments of SDS with [B(Ph)4]- for BSA, enabled us to find the potential binding sites in BSA. The first site is located in the subdomain I A of the protein and binds two [B(Ph)4]- ions (logK(ITC)1 = 7.09 ± 0.10; ΔG(ITC)1 = -9.67 ± 0.14 kcal mol-1; ΔH(ITC)1 = -3.14 ± 0.12 kcal mol-1; TΔS(ITC)1 = -6.53 kcal mol-1), whereas the second site is localized in the subdomain III A and binds five ions (logK(ITC)2 = 5.39 ± 0.06; ΔG(ITC)2 = -7.35 ± 0.09 kcal mol-1; ΔH(ITC)2 = 4.00 ± 0.14 kcal mol-1; TΔS(ITC)2 = 11.3 kcal mol-1). The formation of the {[B(Ph)4]-}-BSA complex results in an increase in the thermal stability of the alfa-helical content, correlating with the saturation of the particular BSA binding sites, thus hindering its thermal unfolding.

Propionic Acid Groups and Multiple Aromatic Rings Induce Binding of Ketoprofen and Naproxen to the Hydrophobic Core of Bovine Serum Albumin.

Project description:Ketoprofen (KP), which causes photosensitivity by interacting with serum albumin (SA), and three drugs, ibuprofen (IBP), naproxen (NPX), and diazepam (DZP), which share the same binding site, were investigated for their interaction with bovine SA (BSA). For KP, DZP, and IBP, where drug-concentration-dependent quenching of BSA-intrinsic fluorescence was observed, a modified Stern-Volmer plot showed that dynamic quenching was dominant for KP and static quenching was dominant for DZP and IBP. However, this alone cannot be compared with NPX. Therefore, by performing singular value decomposition (SVD) fluorescence spectroscopy, we were able to find the behavior of the drug-concentration-dependent Langmuir-type principal component vectors. KSVD obtained by the Langmuir equation showed a high correlation with the static extinction constant V. Therefore, KSVD indicates the association constant of the drug with BSA and it was found that NPX and IBP had higher values than KP. Finally, in the analysis of the temperature factors of amino acid residues in each drug-binding region and Trp residues, KP and NPX significantly reduced these temperature factors whereas DZP and IBP hardly changed them. This result is consistent with the dynamic and static quenching dominance in the total quenching mechanism. Summarizing the results so far, it was shown that penetration into the hydrophobic core inside BSA can be achieved not only by one of the multiple aromatic rings and propionic acid groups but also by the joint effect of both. In this study, SVD enabled us to extract information on drug adsorption to BSA from fluorescence spectra. Furthermore, the application of SVD is expected to make it possible to perform fluorescence analysis for drug binding to proteins without being limited by the fluorescence properties of the drug.

Denaturation studies on bovine serum albumin-bile salt system: Bile salt stabilizes bovine serum albumin through hydrophobicity.

Project description:Protein denaturation is under intensive research, since it leads to neurological disorders of severe consequences. Avoiding denaturation and stabilizing the proteins in their native state is of great importance, especially when proteins are used as drug molecules or vaccines. It is preferred to add pharmaceutical excipients in protein formulations to avoid denaturation and thereby stabilize them. The present study aimed at using bile salts (BSs), a group of well-known drug delivery systems, for stabilization of proteins. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was taken as the model protein, whose association with two BSs, namely sodium cholate (NaC) and sodium deoxycholate (NaDC), was studied. Denaturation studies on the pre-formed BSA-BS systems were carried out under chemical and physical denaturation conditions. Urea was used as the chemical denaturant and BSA-BS systems were subjected to various temperature conditions to understand the thermal (physical) denaturation. With the denaturation conditions prescribed here, the data obtained is informative on the association of BSA-BS systems to be hydrophobic and this effect of hydrophobicity plays an important role in stabilizing the serum albumin in its native state under both chemical and thermal denaturation.

Engineered bovine serum albumin-based nanoparticles with pH-sensitivity for doxorubicin delivery and controlled release.

Project description:In this work, we prepared a stimuli-responsive system for drug delivery and controlled release by engineering the bovine serum albumin (BSA). The doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded BSA nanoparticles (NPs) were conveniently prepared using desolvation method, followed by crosslinking through Schiff base bonds, leading to pH-sensitive DOX-loaded system (DOXs@BSA NPs). The resulted DOXs@BSA NPs showed high drug loading capacity (21.4%), and the particle size was about 130 nm with narrow polydispersity and high negative surface charge (-20.5 mV). The pH-sensitivity of DOXs@BSA NPs was evidenced by the size changes and charge reversal after incubation at different pH values. The DOXs@BSA NPs showed high serum stability which indicated the prolonged circulation time. The in vitro drug release experiment showed that the release of DOX was obviously accelerated by acidity because of disassembly of NPs induced by cleavage of Schiff base bonds. The drug release mechanism was thoroughly studied using a semi-empirical model, further confirming the pH played an important role in drug controlled release process. The results of cytotoxicity assay revealed that DOXs@BSA NPs exhibited much higher toxic effects for tumor cells in comparison to the free DOX control. Collectively, these results demonstrated that DOXs@BSA NPs might be potential application for drug delivery and controlled release in cancer chemotherapy. Moreover, this work also showed that preparation of stimuli-responsive drug delivery system by engineering the commercial biomaterials could be a promising method to develop multi-functional nanomedicine.

Biogenic and synthetic polyamines bind bovine serum albumin.

Project description:Biogenic polyamines are found to modulate protein synthesis at different levels, while polyamine analogues have shown major antitumor activity in multiple experimental models, including breast cancer. The aim of this study was to examine the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with biogenic polyamines, spermine and spermidine, and polyamine analogues 3,7,11,15-tetrazaheptadecane x 4 HCl (BE-333) and 3,7,11,15,19-pentazahenicosane x 5 HCl (BE-3333) in aqueous solution at physiological conditions. FTIR, UV-visible, CD, and fluorescence spectroscopic methods were used to determine the polyamine binding mode and the effects of polyamine complexation on protein stability and secondary structure. Structural analysis showed that polyamines bind BSA via both hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions. Stronger polyamine-protein complexes formed with biogenic than synthetic polyamines with overall binding constants of K(spm) = 3.56 (+/-0.5) x 10(5) M(-1), K(spmd) = 1.77 (+/-0.4) x 10(5) M(-1), K(BE-333) = 1.11 (+/-0.3) x 10(4) M(-1) and K(BE-3333) = 3.90 (+/-0.7) x 10(4) M(-1) that correlate with their positively charged amino group contents. Major alterations of protein conformation were observed with reduction of alpha-helix from 63% (free protein) to 55-33% and increase of turn 12% (free protein) to 28-16% and random coil from 6% (free protein) to 24-17% in the polyamine-BSA complexes, indicating a partial protein unfolding. These data suggest that serum albumins might act as polyamine carrier proteins in delivering polyamine analogues to target tissues.

Proteolysis of Iron Oxide-Associated Bovine Serum Albumin.

Project description:Proteins are a substantial nitrogen source in soils provided that they can be hydrolyzed into bioavailable small peptides or amino acids. However, the strong associations between proteins and soil minerals restrict such proteolytic reactions. This study focused on how an extracellular fungal protease (Rhizopus sp.) hydrolyzed iron oxide-associated bovine serum albumin (BSA) and the factors that affected the proteolysis. We combined batch experiments with size-exclusion and reversed phase liquid chromatography and in situ infrared spectroscopic measurements to monitor the generation of proteolytic products in solution as well as the real-time changes of the adsorbed BSA during 24 h. Results showed that protease hydrolyzed the iron oxide-associated BSA directly at the surface without an initial desorption of BSA. Concurrently, the protease was adsorbed to vacant surface sites at the iron oxides, which significantly slowed down the rate of proteolysis. This inhibiting effect was counteracted by the presence of preadsorbed phosphate or by increasing the BSA coverage, which prevented protease adsorption. Fast initial rates of iron oxide-associated BSA proteolysis, comparable to proteolysis of BSA in solution, and very slow rates at prolonged proteolysis suggest a large variability in mineral-associated proteins as a nitrogen source in soils and that only a fraction of the protein is bioavailable.

Molecular rotors in haemoglobin and bovine serum albumin proteins.

Project description:Molecular rotors are fluorescent viscosity probes and their response in simple fluids is known to be a Förster-Hoffman power law, allowing the viscosity of the medium to be quantified by its fluorescence intensity. They are attractive probes in biological media, usually consisting of proteins, but how does a molecular rotor behave in a protein solution? The response of the DASPI molecular rotor is compared in two globular protein solutions of similar size, haemoglobin (Hb) and bovine serum albumin, one absorbent, the other not. In absorbent Hb, a model validated by experiments in triangular geometry allows one to correct the absorbing effect and to compare the rotor response in both proteins. With concomitant microrheology measurements, we investigate the relation between the DASPI fluorescence intensity and solution viscosity. In protein solutions, we show that viscosity is no longer the parameter determining the rotor response in contrast to simple fluids. Varying the viscosity by concentration or temperature is not equivalent, and the Förster-Hoffmann power laws do not apply when the solution concentration varies. We show that the concentration regime of the protein solution, semi-dilute or concentrated, determines the sensitivity of the rotor to its environment.

Reversible pH Responsive Bovine Serum Albumin Hydrogel Sponge Nanolayer.

Project description:A pH dependent reversible sponge like behavior of a bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanolayer adsorbed at the gold-saline interface is revealed by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), atomic force microscope (AFM) and contact angle measurements. During the saline rinsing cycles, the BSA layer adsorbs water molecules at pH 7.0 and releases them at pH 4.5. The phenomenon remains constant and reproducible upon multiple rinsing cycles. The BSA layer thickness also increases upon rinsing with saline at pH 7.0 and reverses back to its original thickness at pH 4.5. Varying ionic strength with water further desorbs more water molecules from the BSA layer, which decreases its mass and thickness. However, upon both pH and ionic strength changes, all the BSA molecules remain adsorbed irreversibly at the gold interface and only the sorption of water molecules occurs. The study aims at engineering high efficiency pH-responsive biodiagnostics and drug delivery systems.

Microfluidic Production of Polymeric Core-Shell Microspheres for the Delayed Pulsatile Release of Bovine Serum Albumin as a Model Antigen.

Project description:For many vaccines, multiple injections are required to confer protective immunity against targeted pathogens. These injections often consist of a primer administration followed by a booster administration of the vaccine a few weeks or months later. A single-injection vaccine formulation that provides for both administrations could greatly improve the convenience and vaccinee's compliance. In this study, we developed parenterally injectable core-shell microspheres with a delayed pulsatile release profile that could serve as the booster in such a vaccine formulation. These microspheres contained bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the model antigen and poly(dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) with various dl-lactide:glycolide monomer ratios as the shell material. Highly monodisperse particles with different particle characteristics were obtained using a microfluidic setup. All formulations exhibited a pulsatile in vitro release of BSA after an adjustable lag time. This lag time increased with the increasing lactide content of the polymer and ranged from 3 to 7 weeks. Shell thickness and bovine serum albumin loading had no effect on the release behavior, which could be ascribed to the degradation mechanism of the polymer, with bulk degradation being the main pathway. Co-injection of the core-shell microspheres together with a solution of the antigen that serves as the primer would allow for the desired biphasic release profile. Altogether, these findings show that injectable core-shell microspheres combined with a primer are a promising alternative for the current multiple-injection vaccines.
