Feasibility of application of conductometric biosensor based on acetylcholinesterase for the inhibitory analysis of toxic compounds of different nature

This study was aimed at the development of a conductometric biosensor based on acetylcholinesterase considering the feasibility of its application for the inhibitory analysis of various toxicants. In this paper, the optimum conditions for enzyme immobilization on the transducer surface are selected as well as the optimum concentration of substrate for inhibitory analysis. Sensitivity of the developed biosensor to different classes of toxic compounds (organophosphorus pesticides, heavy metal ions, surfactants, aflatoxin, glycoalkaloids) was tested. It is shown that the developed biosensor can be successfully used for the analysis of pesticides and mycotoxins, as well as for determination of total toxicity of the samples. A new method of biosensor analysis of toxic substances of different classes in complex multicomponent aqueous samples is proposed.

The Electrochemical Behavior of α‐Ketoglutarate at the Hanging Mercury Drop Electrode in Acidic Aqueous Solution and Its Practical Application in Environmental and Biological Samples

The voltammetric behavior of α‐ketoglutarate (α‐KG) at the hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) has been investigated in acetate buffer solution. Under the optimum experimental conditions (pH 4.5, 0.2 M NaAc‐HAc buffer solution), a sensitive reductive wave of α‐KG was obtained by linear scan voltammetry (LSV) and the peak potential was ?1.18 V (vs. SCE), which was an irreversible adsorption wave. The kinetic parameters of the electrode process were α=0.3 and k_s=0.72 1/s. There was a linear relationship between peak current i_{p, α‐KG} and α‐KG concentration in the range of 2×10^?6–8×10^?4 M α‐KG. The detection limit was 8×10^?7 M and the relative standard deviation was 2.0% (C_α‐KG=8×10^?4 M, n=10). Applications of the reductive wave of α‐KG for practical analysis were addressed as follows: (1) It can be used for the quantitative analysis of α‐KG in biological samples and the results agree well with those obtained from the established ultraviolet spectrophotometric method. (2) Utilizing the complexing effect between α‐KG and aluminum, a linear relationship holds between the decrease of peak current of α‐KG Δi_p and the added Al concentration Cequation/tex2gif-inf-5.gif in the range of 5.0×10^?6–2.5×10^?4 M. The detection limit was 2.2×10^?6 M and the relative standard deviation was 3.1% (Cequation/tex2gif-inf-6.gif=4×10^?5 M, n=10). It was successfully applied to the detection of aluminum in water and synthetic biological samples with satisfactory results, which were consistent with those of ICP‐AES. (3) It was also applied to study the effect of Al^III on the glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity in the catalytically reaction of α‐KG+NH +NADH?L ‐glutamate+NAD⁺+H₂O by differential pulse polarography (DPP) technique. By monitoring DPP reductive currents of NAD⁺ and α‐KG, an elementary important result was found that Al could greatly affect the activity of GDH. This study could be attributed to intrinsic understanding of the aluminum's toxicity in enzyme reaction processes.

Unified flexible total synthesis of chlorofusin and artificial Click mimics as antagonists against p53–HDM2 interactions

A practical HPLC-free total synthesis of chlorofusin has been successfully accomplished in this work. The new synthesis showed great flexibility and convenience in generating artificial natural product-like mimics through Click chemistry, and enabled us to further investigate the biological importance of the chromophore and the spiro-aminal functionality of the natural product. The entire skeleton is believed to be essential for satisfactory biological activities of both natural chlorofusin and unnatural mimics. Two artificial Click hybrids were found to exhibit improved inhibitory activity against p53–HDM2 bindings over the natural product.     

UPLC-MS/MS for simultaneous quantification of vortioxetine and its metabolite Lu AA34443 in rat plasma and its application to drug interactions

Vortioxetine is currently used as the first-line therapy drug for major depressive disorder (MDD). In the present study, we aimed to develop and fully validate an ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous quantification of vortioxetine and its major metabolite Lu AA34443 in plasma and to investigate the effects of dronedarone and amiodarone on vortioxetine metabolism in rats. After protein precipitation with acetonitrile, the separation of vortioxetine, Lu AA34443 and duloxetine (internal standard, IS) were finished on an Acquity BEH C18 (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) column and their detections were conducted by a Xevo TQ-S triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer in the positive ion mode. The assay displayed excellent linearity in the range of 0.5–50 ng/mL for vortioxetine, and 5–1000 ng/mL for Lu AA34443. The results of this method exhibited that the precision, accuracy, matrix effect, recovery, and stability of vortioxetine and Lu AA34443 met all requirements for the quantitation in plasma samples. The validated assay was further successfully employed to study the effects of dronedarone (80 mg/kg) and amiodarone (60 mg/kg) on vortioxetine metabolism in rats. The results showed that dronedarone and amiodarone could increase the concentration of vortioxetine and have inhibitory effect on vortioxetine metabolism. Thus, vortioxetine dose interruption or reduction may be considered.
