Biological Analytes

Controlled light-mediated delivery of biological analytes enables the investigation of highly reactivity molecules within cellular systems. As many biological effects are concentration dependent, it is critical to determine the location, time, and quantity of analyte donation. In this work, we have developed the first photoactivatable donor for formaldehyde (FA). Our optimized photoactivatable donor, photoFAD-3, is equipped with a fluorescence readout that enables monitoring of FA release with a concomitant 139-fold fluorescence enhancement. Tuning of photostability and cellular retention enabled quantification of intracellular FA release through cell lysate calibration. Application of photoFAD-3 uncovered the concentration range necessary for arresting wound healing in live cells. This marks the first report where a photoactivatable donor for any analyte has been used to quantify intracellular release.

Film State

The spectroscopic and photochemical properties of polyurethane coumarin (PUC) in dimethyl sulf-oxide (DMSO), thetra hydro furan (THF), dimethyl formamide (DMF) and film state were investigated at room temperature under one photon excitation. The results show that under irradiation of l ] 310 nm photodimerization process are increased and under UV irradiation with l[ 260 nm, photocleavage of polymer have been evidenced, too.

Preformulation Study

The influence of some factors on spironolactone stability in solution was studied, by applying high-performance liquid chromatography, as a part of a pharmaceutical preformulation study in order to obtain a spironolactone solution for alopecia treatment. Solutions of 1 mg/ml spironolactone in aqueous ethanolic solution 1 : 1 and in 20 mM cyclodextrines solutions (b-, hydroxi-b- and methyl-b-cyclodextrine) was used, maintained at 8 and 22 �C, protected from light and after UV irradiation at 254 nm. The main degradation products were 7a-thiospirolactone and canrenone. The most stable solutions were the alcoholic ones and with methyl-beta-cyclodextrine, but the simultaneous action of temperature and UV irradiation allowed degradation processes after one hour of exposure, more aggressive in the presence of methyl-beta-cyclodextrine. In conclusion, for alopecia treatment with spironolactone a 1 mg/mL ethanolic solution could be used and it is recommendable the protection of treated zone.

High Antitumor Activity

Monoclonal antibody (MAB) conjugates with cytostatic agents (ADC) are intended for selective delivery of a cytostatic agent to a tumor cell. Three ADC have been approved for clinical use (gemtuzumab ozogamicin, brentuximab vedotin, trastuzumab-DM1); a few dozens of other ADC are undergoing clinical trials. Several derivatives of natural substances (antibiotics and inhibitors of microtubules) having a high antitumor activity are used as cytostatic agents included in ADC. They are inapplicable in clinical practice as self-sustained drugs due to their considerable toxicity. Of great importance for the implementation of the ADC effect is the character of a linker connecting MAB with a cytostatic agent and ensuring selective intracellular release after ADC internalization. The structure, mechanisms of action, and the results of clinical trials of a number of ADC are considered here as an illustration (by way of example). The development of ADC can help introduce new effective cytostatic agents into clinical practice.
