Reaction of Perrhenate with Phthalocyanine Derivatives in the Presence of Reducing Agents and Rhenium Oxide Nanoparticles in Biomedical Applications.

ABSTRACT: A novel alternative route to access rhenium(V)-phthalocyanine complexes through direct metalation of metal-free phthalocyanines (H₂ Pcs) with a rhenium(VII) salt in the presence of various two-electron reducing agents is presented. Direct ion metalation of tetraamino- or tetranitrophthalocyanine with perrhenate (ReO₄ ^- ) in the presence of triphenylphosphine led to oxidative decomposition of the H₂ Pcs, giving their respective phthalonitriles. Conversely, treatment of H₂ Pcs with ReO₄ ^- employing sodium metabisulfite yielded the desired Re^V O-Pc complex. Finally, reaction of H₂ Pcs with ReO₄ ^- and NaBH₄ as reducing agent led to the formation of rhenium oxide (Re_x O_y ) nanoparticles (NPs). The NP synthesis was optimised, and the Re_x O_y NPs were capped with folic acid (FA) conjugated with tetraaminophthalocyanine (TAPc) to enhance their cancer cell targeting ability. The cytotoxicity profile of the resultant Re_x O_y -TAPc-FA NPs was assessed and found to be greater than 80 % viability in four cell lines, namely, MDA-MB-231, HCC7, HCC1806 and HEK293T. Non-cytotoxic concentrations were determined and employed in cancer cell localization studies. The particle size effect on localization of NPs was also investigated using confocal fluorescence and transmission electron microscopy. The smaller NPs (≈10 nm) were found to exhibit stronger fluorescence properties than the ≈50 nm NPs and exhibited better cell localization ability than the ≈50 nm NPs.

Thermal Analysis of Benzotriazolium Perrhenate and Its Implication to Rhenium Metal.

Project description:The thermal analysis behavior of C6H6N3[ReO4] was studied by simultaneous thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) up to 700 °C under argon. Such analysis afforded rhenium metal, which was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. XRD peak broadening due to crystallite size and lattice strain was analyzed by both Williamson-Hall (W-H) and Debye-Scherrer (D-S) methods. Efforts to isolate Re metal from the thermal treatment of benzotriazole (BTA = C6H5N3) with NH4ReO4 and Re2O7 under various atmospheres and temperatures are also reported. The results provide a significant insight into the chemistry of group VII transition metals, investigate the potential use of benzotriazole as a reducing agent for metal productions, and demonstrate a successful convenient method for rhenium metal production, which could be applied to other refractory metals.

Rhenium Perrhenate (188ReO4) Induced Apoptosis and Reduced Cancerous Phenotype in Liver Cancer Cells.

Project description:Recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after conventional treatments is a crucial challenge. Despite the promising progress in advanced targeted therapies, HCC is the fourth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Radionuclide therapy can potentially be a practical targeted approach to address this concern. Rhenium-188 (188Re) is a β-emitting radionuclide used in the clinic to induce apoptosis and inhibit cell proliferation. Although adherent cell cultures are efficient and reliable, appropriate cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) contact is still lacking. Thus, we herein aimed to assess 188Re as a potential therapeutic component for HCC in 2D and 3D models. The death rate in treated Huh7 and HepG2 lines was significantly higher than in untreated control groups using viability assay. After treatment with 188ReO4, Annexin/PI data indicated considerable apoptosis induction in HepG2 cells after 48 h but not Huh7 cells. Quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting data also showed increased apoptosis in response to 188ReO4 treatment. In Huh7 cells, exposure to an effective dose of 188ReO4 led to cell cycle arrest in the G2 phase. Moreover, colony formation assay confirmed post-exposure growth suppression in Huh7 and HepG2 cells. Then, the immunostaining displayed proliferation inhibition in the 188ReO4-treated cells on 3D scaffolds of liver ECM. The PI3-AKT signaling pathway was activated in 3D culture but not in 2D culture. In nude mice, Huh7 cells treated with an effective dose of 188ReO4 lost their tumor formation ability compared to the control group. These findings suggest that 188ReO4 can be a potential new therapeutic agent against HCC through induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest and inhibition of tumor formation. This approach can be effectively combined with antibodies and peptides for more selective and personalized therapy.

New Bioconjugated Technetium and Rhenium Folates Synthesized by Transmetallation Reaction with Zinc Derivatives.

Project description:The zinc dithiocarbamates functionalized with folic acid 2Zn and 3Zn were synthesized with a simple straightforward method, using an appropriated folic acid derivative and a functionalized zinc dithiocarbamate (1Zn). Zinc complexes 2Zn and 3Zn show very low solubilities in water, making them useful for preparing Tc-99m radiopharmaceuticals with a potentially high molar activity. Thus, the transmetallation reaction in water medium between the zinc complexes 2Zn or 3Zn and the cation fac-[99mTc(H2O)3(CO)3]+, in the presence of the monodentate ligand TPPTS, leads to the formation of the 2 + 1 complexes fac-[99mTc(CO)3(SS)(P)] bioconjugated to folic acid (2Tc and 3Tc). In spite of the low solubility of 2Zn and 3Zn in water, the reaction yield is higher than 95%, and the excess zinc reagent is easily removed by centrifugation. The Tc-99m complexes were characterized by comparing their HPLC with those of the homologous rhenium complexes (2Re and 3Re) previously synthesized and characterized by standard methods. Preliminary in vivo studies with 2Tc and 3Tc indicate low specific binding to folate receptors. In summary, Tc-99m folates 2Tc and 3Tc were prepared in high yields, using a one-pot transmetallation reaction with low soluble zinc dithiocarbamates (>1 ppm), at moderate temperature, without needing a subsequent purification step.

NIR light-triggered photodynamic antibacterial nanofiber membrane based on polycaprolactone and phthalocyanine derivative for biomedical applications.

Project description:Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is gaining recognition as a promising alternative method for the treatment of diverse biomedical applications. Toward this goal, we report herein the fabrication of an electrospun membrane utilizing polycaprolactone (PCL), and a phthalocyanine derivative, namely 1,4,8,11,15,22,25-octabutyloxy-29H,31-phthalocyanine (OBuPc). The designed OBuPc-PCL membrane aims to function as a dressing with the potential to facilitate the management of wound healing. The absorption and fluorescence studies of OBuPc have been examined by the steady-state and time-resolved absorption and fluorescence techniques. From direct detection of the weak emission of the singlet oxygen in the NIR region (at 1270 nm), the quantum yield of singlet oxygen was determined to be 0.05. The physiochemical properties of the nanofibers and membranes that were prepared were determined. The photo-activity of all the modified PCL nanofibers against Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli was observed. The PCL/4.8 OBuPc nanofiber exhibited the highest effectiveness, primarily attributed to the enhanced effect of photosensitizer OBuPc as its concentration increased within the fibre. This resulted in S. aureus bacterial inhibition% of 62.5% ± 0.38 and 78.5% ± 0.49 after exposure to near infrared emission NIR at 630 nm for 15 minutes and 30 minutes, respectively. The inhibition of E. coli bacteria was observed to be 51.51% ± 0.49 and 62.44% ± 0.12% after exposure to near infrared (NIR) emission at a wavelength of 630 nm for durations of 15 minutes and 30 minutes, respectively. Additionally, it was observed that the membranes displayed dark bacterial inhibition. These unique features of the examined nanofibers render them a potential photodynamic antibacterial nanofiber membrane for efficient wound healing treatment and practical antibacterial uses.

Nanomedicine Particles Associated With Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer Contrast Agents in Biomedical Applications.

Project description:Theranostic agents are particles containing both diagnostic and medicinal agents in a single platform. Theranostic approaches often employ nanomedicine because loading both imaging probes and medicinal drugs onto nanomedicine particles is relatively straightforward, which can simultaneously provide diagnostic and medicinal capabilities within a single agent. Such systems have recently been described as nanotheranostic. Currently, nanotheranostic particles incorporating medicinal drugs are being widely explored with multiple imaging methods, including computed tomography, positron emission tomography, single-photon emission computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and fluorescence imaging. However, most of these particles are metal-based multifunctional nanotheranostic agents, which pose potential toxicity or radiation risks. Hence, alternative non-metallic and biocompatible nanotheranostic agents are urgently needed. Recently, nanotheranostic agents that combine medicinal drugs and chemical exchange saturated transfer (CEST) contrast agents have shown good promise because CEST imaging technology can utilize the frequency-selective radiofrequency pulse from exchangeable protons to indirectly image without requiring metals or radioactive agents. In this review, we mainly describe the fundamental principles of CEST imaging, features of nanomedicine particles, potential applications of nanotheranostic agents, and the opportunities and challenges associated with clinical transformations.

The reaction of Fe(III) myoglobin fluoride with reducing agents.

Project description:The reaction of reducing agents with Fe(III) myoglobin fluoride from sperm whale was studied at alkaline pH values. The rate of reduction by dithionite was indistinguishable from the rate of ligand dissociation even when the values of the rate constants for both were only 1.0 X 10(-3)S-1 (at pH 10.6). Reduction by the reduced Methyl Viologen radical ion and reduced Safranine was faster than the rate of dissociation, providing evidence that these reductants can donate electrons to the iron centre via a pathway involving an (undetectable) liganded Fe(II) intermediate.

Hematite Nanoparticles from Unexpected Reaction of Ferrihydrite with Concentrated Acids for Biomedical Applications.

Project description:The development of synthetic ways to fabricate nanosized materials with a well-defined shape, narrow-sized distribution, and high stability is of great importance to a rapidly developing area of nanotechnology. Here, we report an unusual reaction between amorphous two-line ferrihydrite and concentrated sulfuric or other mineral and organic acids. Instead of the expected dissolution, we observed the formation of new narrow-distributed brick-red nanoparticles (NPs) of hematite. Different acids produce similar nanoparticles according to scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The reaction demonstrates new possibilities for the synthesis of acid-resistant iron oxide nanoparticles and shows a novel pathway for the reaction of iron hydroxide with concentrated acids. The biomedical potential of the fabricated nanoparticles is demonstrated by the functionalization of the particles with polymers, fluorescent labels, and antibodies. Three different applications are demonstrated: i) specific targeting of the red blood cells, e.g., for red blood cell (RBC)-hitchhiking; ii) cancer cell targeting in vitro; iii) infrared ex vivo bioimaging. This novel synthesis route may be useful for the development of iron oxide materials for such specificity-demanding applications such as nanosensors, imaging, and therapy.

Fabrication and characterization of thiol-triacrylate polymer via Michael addition reaction for biomedical applications.

Project description:Thiol-acrylate polymers have therapeutic potential as biocompatible scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration. Synthesis of a novel cyto-compatible and biodegradable polymer composed of trimethylolpropane ethoxylate triacrylate-trimethylolpropane tris (3-mercaptopropionate) (TMPeTA-TMPTMP) using a simple amine-catalyzed Michael addition reaction is reported in this study. This study explores the impact of molecular weight and crosslink density on the cyto-compatibility of human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. Eight groups were prepared with two different average molecular weights of trimethylolpropane ethoxylate triacrylate (TMPeTA 692 and 912) and four different concentrations of diethylamine (DEA) as catalyst. The materials were physically characterized by mechanical testing, wettability, mass loss, protein adsorption and surface topography. Cyto-compatibility of the polymeric substrates was evaluated by LIVE/DEAD staining® and DNA content assay of cultured human adipose derived stem cells (hASCs) on the samples over over days. Surface topography studies revealed that TMPeTA (692) samples have island pattern features whereas TMPeTA (912) polymers showed pitted surfaces. Water contact angle results showed a significant difference between TMPeTA (692) and TMPeTA (912) monomers with the same DEA concentration. Decreased protein adsorption was observed on TMPeTA (912) -16% DEA compared to other groups. Fluorescent microscopy also showed distinct hASCs attachment behavior between TMPeTA (692) and TMPeTA (912), which is due to their different surface topography, protein adsorption and wettability. Our finding suggested that this thiol-acrylate based polymer is a versatile, cyto-compatible material for tissue engineering applications with tunable cell attachment property based on surface characteristics.
