AbstractIn spite of the tumor microenvironments responsive cancer therapy based on Fenton reaction (i.e., chemodynamic therapy, CDT) has been attracted more attentions in recent years, the limited Fenton reaction efficiency is the important obstacle to further application in clinic. Herein, we synthesized novel FeO/MoS2 nanocomposites modified by bovine serum albumin (FeO/MoS2-BSA) with boosted Fenton reaction efficiency by the synergistic effect of co-catalyze and photothermal effect of MoS2 nanosheets triggered by the second near-infrared (NIR II) light. In the tumor microenvironments, the MoS2 nanosheets not only can accelerate the conversion of Fe3+ ions to Fe2+ ions by Mo4+ ions on their surface to improve Fenton reaction efficiency, but also endow FeO/MoS2-BSA with good photothermal performances for photothermal-enhanced CDT and photothermal therapy (PTT). Consequently, benefiting from the synergetic-enhanced CDT/PTT, the tumors are eradicated completely in vivo. This work provides innovative synergistic strategy for constructing nanocomposites for highly efficient CDT.

These studies explore the role of carbohydrate recognition systems and the direct involvement of terminal alpha 1-3-linked fucose in the clearance of lactoferrin from the murine circulation and in the specific binding of lactoferrin to receptors on murine peritoneal macrophages. As previously reported, radiolabelled lactoferrin cleared very rapidly (t1/2 less than 1 min) after intravenous injection into mice. However, competing levels of ligands specific for the hepatic galactose receptor (asialo-orosomucoid), the hepatic fucose receptor (fucosyl-bovine serum albumin), and the mononuclear-phagocyte system pathway recognizing mannose, N-acetylglucosamine and fucose (mannosyl-, N-acetylglucosaminyl- and fucosyl-bovine serum albumin) did not block radiolabelled lactoferrin clearance in vivo or binding to mouse peritoneal macrophage monolayers in vitro. Almond emulsin alpha 1-3-fucosidase was used to prepare defucosylated lactoferrin in which 88% of the alpha 1-3-linked fucose was hydrolysed. No difference in clearance or receptor binding was observed between radiolabelled native and defucosylated lactoferrin. Fucoidin, a fucose-rich algal polysaccharide, completely inhibits the clearance in vivo and macrophage binding in vitro of lactoferrin. This effect, however, is probably not the result of competition for binding to the fucose receptor, since gel-filtration studies demonstrated formation of a stable complex between lactoferrin and fucoidin. The present results indicate that the lactoferrin-clearance pathway is distinct from several pathways mediating glycoprotein clearance through recognition of terminal galactose, fucose, N-acetylglucosamine or mannose. Furthermore, alpha 1-3-linked fucose on lactoferrin is not essential for lactoferrin clearance in vivo or specific binding to macrophage receptors in vitro.

Background: We evaluated the impacts of corona protein (CP) formation on the alternating current biosusceptometry (ACB) signal intensity and in vivo circulation times of three differently coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNP): bare, citrate-coated and bovine serum albumin-coated MNPs. Methods: We employed the ACB system, gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry analysis. Results: Higher CP formation led to a greater reduction in the in vitro ACB signal intensity and circulation time. We found fewer proteins forming the CP for the bovine serum albumin-coated MNPs, which presented the highest circulation time in vivo among the MNPs studied. Conclusion: These data showed better biocompatibility, stability and magnetic signal uniformity in biological media for bovine serum albumin-coated MNPs than for citrate-coated MNPs and bare MNPs.

Peptide Derivatives

Receptor-mediated binding of leukocyte chemotactic peptide, N-formylMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP), occurs in the ciliated protozoon Tetrahymena thermophila. In vivo labelling of the cells with N-formylMet-Leu-[3H]Phe ([3H]fMLP) shows that the cells bind the ligand with high affinity (KD = 4 × 10(−9) M to 1 × 10(−8) M). Moreover, Scatchard transformations of the binding data show that there are about 5 × 10(5) binding sites per cell on the cell surface. Two fluorescent derivatives of leukocyte chemotactic peptide, N-dansylMet-Leu-Phe (dansMLP) and N-formylMet-Leu-Phe-(N-dansyl-)Lys (fMLPdanLys) compete for the N-formylMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) binding sites on the cell surface. Moreover, both derivatives have retained significant chemoattracting potentials. Fluorescence from dansMLP, but not from fMLPdansLys and dansyl-beta-endorphin, is internalized preferentially into small vesicles. The differences may, however, reflect that the fluorescence from the dansyl group is strongly quenched by a hydrophilic microenvironment when using the two latter peptide derivatives. In contrast, the dansyl group from dansMLP must be assumed to be embedded in a hydrophobic microenvironment in the vesicular membrane or membrane protein. Rhodamine-labelled bovine serum albumin, egg albumin and cytochrome c as well as dansylated bovine serum albumin, which are poor chemoattractants, are preferentially seen to be internalized into large vesicles (food vacuoles).
