In a previous study, we reported on the development of a synthetic polymer conjugate of pirarubicin (THP) that was formed via an acid-labile hydrazone bond between the polymer and the THP. However, the synthetic polymer itself was non-biodegradable, which could lead to unexpected adverse effects. Human serum albumin (HSA), which has a high biocompatibility and good biodegradability, is also a potent carrier for delivering antitumor drugs. The objective of this study was to develop pH-sensitive HSA conjugates of THP (HSA-THP), and investigate the release of THP and the cytotoxicity under acidic conditions in vitro for further clinical development. HSA-THP was synthesized by conjugating maleimide hydrazone derivatives of THP with poly-thiolated HSA using 2-iminothiolane, via a thiol-maleimide coupling reaction. We synthesized two types of HSA-THP that contained different amounts of THP (HSA-THP2 and HSA-THP4). Free THP was released from both of the HSA conjugates more rapidly at an acidic pH, and the rates of release for HSA-THP2 and HSA-THP4 were similar. Moreover, both HSA-THPs exhibited a higher cytotoxicity at acidic pH than at neutral pH, which is consistent with the effective liberation of free THP under acidic conditions. These findings suggest that these types of HSA-THPs are promising candidates for further development.

ABSTRACT Two radioimmunoassays for triiodothyronine (T3) are described, one of which includes an extraction step, while the other does not. To raise antibodies, two carrier proteins and different coupling agents were used, namely haemocyanin and diazotized benzidine or human serum albumin and carbodiimide. In the case of T3 coupled to haemocyanin by diazotized benzidine, evidence of covalent binding of the hapten to the protein was obtained. In the case of T3 coupled to human serum albumin, little evidence of covalent linkage was available. Nevertheless immunization was successful in both cases. The radioimmunoassay in unextracted serum was highly reproducible and precise (intra-assay variability 5.2% inter-assay variability 8.1%). Normal values were determined which clearly indicate a fall in the serum T3 concentration with increasing age. In men the fall occurs in the fifth decade. In women the T3 starts to fall only after 70 years of age. In 31 cases of hyperthyroidism the serum T3 concentration ranged from 2.26 to 10.4 ng T3/ml. In 10 cases of hypothyroidism the values ranged from 0 to 0.8 ng T3/ml. The radioimmunoassay using an extraction procedure was less extensively used since it was found to be less reproducible (intra-assay variability 7.5%, inter-assay 12.25%). The normal values were determined with a mixed population aged 20–50. The mean ± 2 sd was 0.9 ± 0.36 ng T3/ml (n=52). In 17 cases of hypothyroidism the values ranged from 0 to 0.6 ng T3/ml and in 22 cases of hyperthyroidism from 2 to 14.4 ng T3/ml.

The present study was performed to elucidate why the photochemical reaction of (ZZ)-bilirubin bound to human serum albumin is singularly selective, and only one of the two (EZ)- and (ZE)-bilirubins, the (ZE)-isomer, is produced. In a kinetic study of the photochemical reaction in vitro, the sum of the relative rate constants of photochemical transformation of (EZ)-bilirubin into both (EZ)-cyclobilirubin and (ZZ)-bilirubin, with a significant preference for the former, was proved to be considerably larger than that of the transformation of (ZZ)-bilirubin into (EZ)-bilirubin. Therefore only one of the geometrical isomers, namely (ZE)-bilirubin, is apparently formed. It was concluded that (EZ)-bilirubin photochemically undergoes (EZ)-cyclization, i.e. structural photoisomerization, while bound to its high-affinity site on human serum albumin, and is an intermediate in the transformation of (ZZ)-bilirubin into (EZ)-cyclobilirubin.
