Ciprofloxacin is a widely used fluoroquinolone drug with broad spectrum antibacterial activities. Clinical experience has shown incidences of adverse effects related to skin, hepatic, central nervous system, gastrointestinal and phototoxicity. India is a tropical country and sunlight is abundant throughout the day. In this scenario exposure to ambient levels of ultraviolet radiation (UV-R) in sunlight may lead to harmful effects in ciprofloxacin users. Phototoxicity assessment of ciprofloxacin was studied by two mouse fibroblast cell lines L-929 and NIH-3T3. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) like singlet oxygen (1O2), superoxide anion radical (O2*-) and hydroxyl radical (*OH) was studied under the exposure of ambient intensities of UV-A (1.14, 1.6 and 2.2 mW cm(-2)), UV-B (0.6, 0.9 and 1.2 mW cm(-2)) and sunlight (60 min). The drug was generating 1O2, O2*- and *OH in a concentration and dose-dependent manner. Sodium azide (NaN3) and 1,4-diazabicyclo 2-2-2-octane (DABCO) inhibited the generation of 1O2. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) inhibited 90-95% O2*- generation. The drug (5-40 microg mL(-1)) was responsible for linoleic acid peroxidation. Quenching study of linoleic acid peroxidation with SOD (25 and 50 U mL(-1)) confirms the involvement of ROS in drug-induced lipid peroxidation. The generation of *OH radical was further confirmed by using specific quenchers of *OH such as mannitol (0.5 M) and sodium benzoate (0.5 M). 2'-deoxyguanosine (2'-dGuO) assay and linoleic acid peroxidation showed that ROS were mainly responsible for ciprofloxacin-sensitized photo-degradation of guanine base. L-929 cell line showed 29%, 34% and 54% reduced cell viability at higher drug concentration (300 microg mL(-1)) under UV-A, UV-B and sunlight, respectively. 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay in NIH-3T3 cell line at higher drug concentration (300 microg mL(-1)) showed a decrease in cell viability by 54%, 56% and 59% under UV-A, UV-B and sunlight, respectively. Results of neutral red uptake assay (NRU) in L-929 cell line were in accordance with MTT assay. The NIH-3T3 cell line showed a higher photosensitizing potential than L-929. The phototoxicity end point shows a time- and concentration-dependent statistically significant (P<0.001) damage. Ciprofloxacin produced ROS by Type I and Type II photodynamic reactions, interacted with nucleic acid moiety and inhibited cell viability. Further, UV-induced photo-peroxidation of linoleic acid accorded the involvement of ROS in the manifestation of drug phototoxicity. Appearance of ciprofloxacin-induced phototoxicity at the ambient level of sunlight is a real risk for the people of India and for those of other tropical countries. We suggest that sunlight exposure should be avoided (especially peak hours) during ciprofloxacin treatment. 相似文献

X-ray diffraction data of high quality measured to high resolution on crystals of the two pentitol epimers ribitol (centric) and xylitol (acentric) at 101, 141, and 181 K and data on the two compounds previously recorded at 122 K have formed the basis for multipole refinements with the VALRAY system. Our analysis showed that it is possible to obtain a reliable crystal electron density for an acentric compound (xylitol) from X-ray diffraction data and that the thermal motion can be deconvoluted from the static density in this temperature range. The Bader-type topological analysis of the static electron densities revealed virtually identical intramolecular interactions as well as very similar hydrogen bond interactions of ribitol and xylitol; the only minor differences are found in the weaker intermolecular interactions. The high-level periodic DFT calculations are in accordance with the thermodynamic measurements that show that the two pentitols have identical sublimation energies. A rigid body normal coordinate analysis was performed on the atomic displacement parameters obtained at the four different temperatures. The translational and librational mean square deviations derived through this analysis were used in a quantum statistical approach to derive frequencies of the corresponding harmonic oscillators. The analysis showed a consistent vibrational model for all temperatures. The frequencies were subsequently used to calculate crystal entropies assuming an Einstein-type behavior. These calculations show that the crystal entropy of ribitol is 8 J K(-1) mol(-1) higher than the crystal entropy of xylitol, confirming that it is a difference in the entropy of the two compounds that causes the difference in their free energy. Our results presented in this Article show the potential to use X-ray diffraction data to obtain physicochemical properties of crystals. 相似文献

Neurophysins are linear cystine-rich proteins containing 93–95 amino acid residues which like the neurohypophysial hormones oxytocin and vasopressin are formed in the hypothalamus and travel from there to the hypophysial posterior lobe. A species usually contains two (or three) neurophysins which differ only slightly in chain length and/or sequence. Many observatios suggest that both oxytocin and one of the neurophysins as well as vasopressin and the other neurophysin have a common precursor whose long chain is split into neurophysin and hormone. It can be shown on rats having considerable diabetes insipidus that a single gene controls the biosynthesis of the vasopressin and one of the neurophysins. 相似文献

The perturbation theory approach to the calculation of second-order molecular properties is amended for the case when the perturbation is a magnetic field. It is therefore possible to calculate reliably the CI contributions to molecular magnetisabilities and large basis results are presented for LiH. 相似文献

The hypoxic microenvironment is considered the preponderant initiator to trigger a cascade of progression and metastasis of tumors, also being the major obstacle for oxygen consumption therapeutics, including photodynamic therapy (PDT). In this work, we report a programmable strategy at the molecular level to modulate the reciprocal interplay between tumor hypoxia, angiogenesis, and PDT outcomes by reinforcing synergistic action between a H2O2 scavenger, O2 generator and photosensitizer. The modular combination of a catalase biomimetic (tri-manganese cryptand, 1) and a photosensitizer (Ce6) allowed the rational design of a cascade reaction beginning with dismutation of H2O2 to O2 under hypoxic conditions to enhance photosensitization and finally photooxidation. Concurrently, this led to the decreased expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and effectively reduced unwanted growth of blood vessels observed in the chick chorioallantois membrane (CAM). Notably, the proof-of-principle experiments using the tumor-bearing models proved successful in enhancing PDT efficacy, prolonging their life cycles, and improving immunity, which could be monitored by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).A programmable strategy at the molecular level to modulate the ratio of a catalyst and photosensitizer to maximize the collaborative efficiency of anti-angiogenesis and PDT. 相似文献

b-Bilene hydrochlorides are shown to be improved intermediates for the synthesis of metallo-isoporphyrins in enhanced yields (28% vs. 6%). Several new diamagnetic zinc(II) and a novel paramagnetic copper(II) isoporphyrin salts were also obtained using this approach. Metal-free isoporphyrins were also isolated. In vitro studies using human carcinoma HEp2 cells show that all metallo-isoporphyrins accumulate within cells and localize partially in the mitochondria. The zinc-isoporphyrins were found to be moderately phototoxic while the copper complex showed the lowest phototoxicity, maybe as a result of its paramagnetic nature. 相似文献

The adsorption/desorption of N2 at 77 K and the adsorption from aqueous solution at 298 K of four organic probe molecules of different sizes (phenol, 4-nitrophenol, orange II, naphthol green B) were studied for a phthalocyanine network polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) and for an activated carbon (Darco 20-40 mesh). N2 sorption analysis gave similar surface areas for the PIM and the carbon (610 and 545 m2 g(-1), respectively) but showed differences in pore size distribution, the PIM being essentially microporous (pore size < 2 nm), with a high proportion of ultramicropores (<0.7 nm), while the carbon had a broader pore size distribution, extending into the mesopore region. The carbon acted as an adsorbent for all the organic probe molecules studied, while the PIM was more selective, adsorbing the smaller molecules but rejecting the large dye naphthol green B. The PIM offers selectivity combined with a well-defined chemical structure incorporating catalytic sites. 相似文献

The analytic calculation of first-order properties has been implemented in the DALTON program at the level of explicitly correlated second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2-R12). The implementation has been accomplished for MP2-R12 theory based on standard approximations A, A', and B, using an auxiliary basis for the resolution-of-the-identity approximation, with and without a frozen core. MP2-R12 first-order molecular properties have been calculated analytically for a few small test molecules. For BH and HF, the MP2-R12 results were supplemented with explicitly correlated coupled-cluster calculations (but at this level from numerical derivatives) including vibrational and relativistic corrections. 相似文献

In this work, it is shown how to implement both hard and soft computing by means of two structurally related heterocyclic compounds: flindersine (FL) and 6(5H)-phenanthridinone (PH). Since FL and PH have a carbonyl group in their molecular skeletons, they exhibit Proximity Effects in their photophysics. In other words, they have an emission power that can be modulated through external inputs such as temperature (T) and hydrogen-bonding donation (HBD) ability of solvents. This phenomenology can be exploited to implement both crisp and fuzzy logic. Fuzzy Logic Systems (FLSs) wherein the antecedents of the rules are connected through the AND operator, are built by both the Mamdani’s and Sugeno’s models. Finally, they are adopted as approximators of the proximity effect phenomenon and tested for their prediction capabilities. Moreover, FL as photochromic compound is also a multiply configurable crisp logic molecular element. 相似文献

Gound-state electronic properties of porphine, phthalocyanine, and their derivatives, photosensitizers with potential use in the photodynamic therapy of tumors, were studied by semiempirical (MNDO ) molecular orbital calculations. Geometry, bond orders, electron populations, and net atomic charges were analyzed. The obtained models were applied to study the intermolecular interactions of these molecules utilizing a classical mechanics approach. The dimerization characteristics of different derivatives were obtained by a separate evaluation of the contribution of electrostatic and steric factors. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

A metallophthalocyanine radical, PcLi, was prepared by electrochemical oxidation of the corresponding dianion. The redox properties in solution show that PcLi is both easily reduced and easily oxidized (ΔE = Ered1/2-E1/2ox = 0.83 V). This property is of the utmost importance for obtaining intrinsic molecular semiconductors. The optical properties are similar to those for oxidized phthalocyanines and involve two low-lying π-π transitions at 430 and 810 nm. Despite the tendency to aggregation, the ESR spectrum of the isolated PcLi molecule has been obtained. It is consistent with an unpaired electron delocalized over the whole phthalocyanine ring. 相似文献

Recent investigations from our laboratory have described compelling experimental evidence to the effect that polyacetylenes operate as extremely effective molecular-scale wires for conducting electronic charge between redox-active terminals. The unusually low electronic resistivity of polyacetylenic bridges is derived from their relatively accessible HOMOs and LUMOs, which facilitate electron and hole tunnelling over long distances, and because of the excellent electronic coupling that occurs between adjacent carbon atoms, these being in very close proximity. In order to prevent direct participation of the acetylenic bridge in triplet energy-transfer processes or in light-induced electron-transfer reactions, it is prudent to restrict the conjugation length of the bridge to less than five ethynylene groups. We now consider various synthetic strategies for the engineering of such molecular systems that retain the favorable electronic properties of a polyacetylenic bridge but that include a relay or insulator in the bridging moiety. A convenient way to construct such systems is to use a PtII bis-acetylide as the spacer that separates terminal metal oligopyridine complexes. In this case, the central PtII complex becomes an insulator. By careful design of the system, this insulatory behavior can be exploited as a means by which to introduce directionality and selectivity into the system, and we demonstrate such effects by using polycyclic hydrocarbons and metalloporphyrins as the photoactive terminals. Similar effects can be obtained with polycyclic hydrocarbons built into the acetylenic wire and, in such cases, the energetics of the bridge can be tuned over an inordinately wide range by varying the extent of conjugation inherent to the aromatic nucleus. A special case is identified in which the polycycle itself possesses vacant coordination sites since the energy of the bridge can be further tuned by external complexation of adventitious cations. In order to provide for an energy gradient along the molecular axis, we have devised a versatile synthetic strategy for attaching different types of ligand to the terminals. This approach also facilitates both extension of the molecular axis and alteration of the molecular shape. The photophysical and electrochemical properties have been recorded for all the molecular systems reported herein and used as a simple experimental means by which to quantify the extent of electronic communication along the molecular axis. For mixed-metal or mixed-ligand systems, rates of intramolecular energy or electron transfer have been measured. In most cases, these rates are extremely fast and testify to the remarkable electronic coupling properties of this family of compounds. Finally, some consideration is given to the preparation of third-generation systems. 相似文献

The chemical transformation of the polar chloroaluminum phthalocyanine, AlClPc, to μ-(oxo)bis(phthalocyaninato)aluminum(III), (PcAl)2O, in thin films on indium tin oxide is studied and its influence on the molecular orientation is discussed. The studies were conducted using complementary spectroscopic techniques: Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. In addition, density functional theory calculations were performed in order to identify specific vibrations and to monitor the product formation. The thin films of AlClPc were annealed in controlled environmental conditions to obtain (PcAl)2O. It is shown that the chemical transformation in the thin films can proceed only in the presence of water. The influence of the reaction and the annealing on the molecular orientation was studied with Raman spectroscopy and NEXAFS spectroscopy in total electron yield and partial electron yield modes. The comparison of the results obtained from these techniques allows the determination of the molecular orientation of the film as a function of the probing depth.
