Electron capture dissociation and collision-induced dissociation of metal ion (Ag(+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Fe(2+), and Fe(3+)) complexes of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers.

ABSTRACT: The electron capture dissociation (ECD) and collision-induced dissociation (CID) of complexes of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers with metal ions Ag(+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Fe(2+), and Fe(3+) were determined by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Complexes were of the form [PD + M + mH](5+) where PD = generation two PAMAM dendrimer with amidoethanol surface groups, M = metal ion, m = 2-4. Complementary information regarding the site and coordination chemistry of the metal ions can be obtained from the two techniques. The results suggest that complexes of Fe(3+) and Cu(2+) are coordinated via both core tertiary amines, whereas coordination of Ag(+) involves a single core tertiary amine. The Zn(2+) and Fe(2+) complexes do not appear to involve coordination by the dendrimer core.

Electron capture dissociation, electron detachment dissociation, and collision-induced dissociation of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer ions with amino, amidoethanol, and sodium carboxylate surface groups.

Project description:Here, we investigate the effect of the structure (generation) and nature of the surface groups of different polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on electron-mediated dissociation, either electron capture dissociation (ECD) or electron detachment dissociation (EDD), and compare the fragmentation with that observed in collision-induced dissociation (CID). ECD and EDD of the PAMAM dendrimers resulted in simple mass spectra, which are straightforward to interpret, whereas CID produced complex mass spectra. The results show that electron-mediated dissociation (ECD and EDD) of PAMAM dendrimers does not depend on the nature of the surface group but tends to occur within the innermost generations. CID of the PAMAM dendrimers showed a strong dependence on the nature of the surface group and occurred mostly in the outer generation. The results demonstrate the potential utility of ECD and EDD as a tool for the structural analysis of PAMAM dendrimers.

Transcriptomic response of zebrafish embryos to Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers

Project description:We are presenting here the application of toxicogenomics to perform the evaluation of toxic effects of two polyamidoamine dendrimers (Generation3 and Generation4) on the developing zebrafish embryo. They are nanomaterials of special concern under the toxicological point of view because of their relatively high solubility in water and bioavailability. Zebrafish embryo toxicity assays (zFET) showed that G3 was more toxic to zebrafish than G4, and that both compounds were several orders of magnitude more toxic than other carbonaceous nanomaterials, like carbon fullerenes or nanotubes. The results suggest a variety of MoA for different dendrimers, probably related to the nature and number of the chemical groups attached to their surface. They also confirm the relatively high bioavailability of these compounds, a key factor for the assessment of the risk associated to their use and release into the environment. About 5% genes were affected by the treatment. Gene ontology (GO) analyses show that these genes are involved in the oxidation-reduction process and also in the nervous system development. Representatives of each GO functional groups were selected and quantified by real-time PCR to validate the microarray data and to differentiate the action of generations of dendrimers studied.

Selective Cellular Uptake and Druggability Efficacy through Functionalized Chitosan-Conjugated Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) Dendrimers.

Project description:Nanotechnology has ushered in significant advancements in drug design, revolutionizing the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of various diseases. The strategic utilization of nanotechnology to enhance drug loading, delivery, and release has garnered increasing attention, leveraging the enhanced physical and chemical properties offered by these systems. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers have been pivotal in drug delivery, yet there is room for further enhancement. In this study, we conjugated PAMAM dendrimers with chitosan (CS) to augment cellular internalization in tumor cells. Specifically, doxorubicin (DOX) was initially loaded into PAMAM dendrimers to form DOX-loaded PAMAM (DOX@PAMAM) complexes via intermolecular forces. Subsequently, CS was linked onto the DOX-loaded PAMAM dendrimers to yield CS-conjugated PAMAM loaded with DOX (DOX@CS@PAMAM) through glutaraldehyde crosslinking via the Schiff base reaction. The resultant DOX@CS@PAMAM complexes were comprehensively characterized using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Notably, while the drug release profile of DOX@CS@PAMAM in acidic environments was inferior to that of DOX@PAMAM, DOX@CS@PAMAM demonstrated effective acid-responsive drug release, with a cumulative release of 70% within 25 h attributed to the imine linkage. Most importantly, DOX@CS@PAMAM exhibited significant selective cellular internalization rates and antitumor efficacy compared to DOX@PAMAM, as validated through cell viability assays, fluorescence imaging, and flow cytometry analysis. In summary, DOX@CS@PAMAM demonstrated superior antitumor effects compared to unconjugated PAMAM dendrimers, thereby broadening the scope of dendrimer-based nanomedicines with enhanced therapeutic efficacy and promising applications in cancer therapy.

Neuroligin-2-derived peptide-covered polyamidoamine-based (PAMAM) dendrimers enhance pancreatic β-cells' proliferation and functions.

Project description:Pancreatic β-cell membranes and presynaptic areas of neurons contain analogous protein complexes that control the secretion of bioactive molecules. These complexes include the neuroligins (NLs) and their binding partners, the neurexins (NXs). It has been recently reported that both insulin secretion and the proliferation rates of β-cells increase when cells are co-cultured with full-length NL-2 clusters. The pharmacological use of full-length protein is always problematic due to its unfavorable pharmacokinetic properties. Thus, NL-2-derived short peptide was conjugated to the surface of polyamidoamine-based (PAMAM) dendrimers. This nanoscale composite improved β-cell functions in terms of the rate of proliferation, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), and functional maturation. This functionalized dendrimer also protected β-cells under cellular stress conditions. In addition, various novel peptidomimetic scaffolds of NL-2-derived peptide were designed, synthesized, and conjugated to the surface of PAMAM in order to increase the biostability of the conjugates. However, after being covered by peptidomimetics, PAMAM dendrimers were inactive. Thus, the original peptide-based PAMAM dendrimer is a leading compound for continued research that might provide a unique starting point for designing an innovative class of antidiabetic therapeutics that possess a unique mode of action.

Top-Down Detection of Oxidative Protein Footprinting by Collision-Induced Dissociation, Electron-Transfer Dissociation, and Electron-Capture Dissociation.

Project description:Fast photochemical oxidation of proteins (FPOP) footprinting is a structural mass spectrometry method that maps proteins by fast and irreversible chemical reactions. The position of oxidative modification reflects solvent accessibility and site reactivity and thus provides information about protein conformation, structural dynamics, and interactions. Bottom-up mass spectrometry is an established standard method to analyze FPOP samples. In the bottom-up approach, all forms of the protein are digested together by a protease of choice, which results in a mixture of peptides from various subpopulations of proteins with varying degrees of photochemical oxidation. Here, we investigate the possibility to analyze a specifically selected population of only singly oxidized proteins. This requires utilization of more specific top-down mass spectrometry approaches. The key element of any top-down experiment is the selection of a suitable method of ion isolation, excitation, and fragmentation. Here, we employ and compare collision-induced dissociation, electron-transfer dissociation, and electron-capture dissociation combined with multi-continuous accumulation of selected ions. A singly oxidized subpopulation of FPOP-labeled ubiquitin was used to optimize the method. The top-down approach in FPOP is limited to smaller proteins, but its usefulness was demonstrated by using it to visualize structural changes induced by co-factor removal from the holo/apo myoglobin system. The top-down data were compared with the literature and with the bottom-up data set obtained on the same samples. The top-down results were found to be in good agreement, which indicates that monitoring a singly oxidized FPOP ion population by the top-down approach is a functional workflow for oxidative protein footprinting.

Tuning DNA Condensation with Zwitterionic Polyamidoamine (zPAMAM) Dendrimers.

Project description:Cationic dendrimers are promising vectors for non-viral gene due to their well-defined size and chemistry. We have synthesized a series of succinylated fourth generation (G4) PAMAM dendrimers to control the DNA packaging in dendriplexes, allowing us to probe the role of charge on DNA packaging. The self-assembly of DNA induced by these zwitterionic PAMAM (zPAMAM) was investigated using small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). We demonstrate that changing the degree of modification in zPAMAM-DNA significantly alters the packing density of the resulting dendriplexes. Salt sensitivities and pH dependence on the inter-DNA spacing were also examined. The swelling and stability to salt is reduced with increasing degree of PAMAM modification. Lowering the pH leads to significantly tighter hexagonal DNA packaging. In combination, these results show zPAMAM is an effective means to modulate nucleic acid packaging in a deterministic manner.

The Role of Fe, Zn, and Cu in Pregnancy.

Project description:Iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) are microelements essential for the proper functioning of living organisms. These elements participatein many processes, including cellular metabolism and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory defenses, and also influence enzyme activity, regulate gene expression, and take part in protein synthesis. Fe, Cu, and Zn have a significant impact on the health of pregnant women and in the development of the fetus, as well as on the health of the newborn. A proper concentration of these elements in the body of women during pregnancy reduces the risk of complications such as anemia, induced hypertension, low birth weight, preeclampsia, and postnatal complications. The interactions between Fe, Cu, and Zn influence their availability due to their similar physicochemical properties. This most often occurs during intestinal absorption, where metal ions compete for binding sites with transport compounds. Additionally, the relationships between these ions have a great influence on the course of reactions in the tissues, as well as on their excretion, which can be stimulated or delayed. This review aims to summarize reports on the influence of Fe, Cu, and Zn on the course of single and multiple pregnancies, and to discuss the interdependencies and mechanisms occurring between Fe, Cu, and Zn.

Enhanced Collision Induced Unfolding and Electron Capture Dissociation of Native-like Protein Ions.

Project description:Native ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) is capable of revealing much that remains unknown within the structural proteome, promising such information on refractory protein targets. Here, we report the development of a unique drift tube IM-MS (DTIM-MS) platform, which combines high-energy source optics for improved collision induced unfolding (CIU) experiments and an electromagnetostatic cell for electron capture dissociation (ECD). We measured a series of high precision collision cross section (CCS) values for protein and protein complex ions ranging from 6-1600 kDa, exhibiting an average relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.43 ± 0.20%. Furthermore, we compare our CCS results to previously reported DTIM values, finding strong agreement across similarly configured instrumentation (average RSD of 0.82 ± 0.73%), and systematic differences for DTIM CCS values commonly used to calibrate traveling-wave IM separators (-3% average RSD). Our CIU experiments reveal that the modified DTIM-MS instrument described here achieves enhanced levels of ion activation when compared with any previously reported IM-MS platforms, allowing for comprehensive unfolding of large multiprotein complex ions as well as interplatform CIU comparisons. Using our modified DTIM instrument, we studied two protein complexes. The enhanced CIU capabilities enable us to study the gas phase stability of the GroEL 7-mer and 14-mer complexes. Finally, we report CIU-ECD experiments for the alcohol dehydrogenase tetramer, demonstrating improved sequence coverage by combining ECD fragmentation integrated over multiple CIU intermediates. Further improvements for such native top-down sequencing experiments were possible by leveraging IM separation, which enabled us to separate and analyze CID and ECD fragmentation simultaneously.

Intrinsic Fluorescence of PAMAM Dendrimers-Quenching Studies.

Project description:Intrinsic, non-traditional fluorescence of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers that do not possess classical fluorophores has been attracting considerable interest for the last decade. Many hypotheses regarding the source of the fluorescence have appeared, but some of them are still disputable. In order to shed new light on the nature of the phenomenon, we applied quenchers that are normally used to study intrinsic fluorescence of proteins (i.e., KI, CsCl, and acrylamide). KI and acrylamide efficiently quenched steady state fluorescence of PAMAM G2, PAMAM G3, and PAMAM G4 dendrimers. Stern-Volmer plots exhibited a downward curvature that has been elucidated by heterogenous emission. We assume that there are two distinct fluorescent moieties in the dendrimer structure that are characterized by different accessibility to the quenchers.
