RESUMO
Tetrazolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes ([{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]2+; tetrazolato-bridged complexes) show remarkable cytotoxic effects in vitro and antitumor activity in vivo. Here, we examined the structure-activity relationship of a series of fluorine-containing derivatives (R = CFH2, CF2H, or CF3), focusing on their lipophilicity, cellular accumulation, cytotoxicity, interactions with a nucleobase and double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid, and in vivo antitumor efficacy. Fluorination had a little effect on the properties of the derivatives in vitro; however, marked differences in in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo tumor growth inhibition activity were observed. In BALB/c mice bearing colon-26 tumors, the antitumor efficacies of the derivatives were markedly altered, even by changing the number of fluorine atoms by one. In addition, one derivative, [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-difluoromethyltetrazolato-N2,N3)](NO3)2, showed a significantly higher antitumor efficacy compared with oxaliplatin, a current first-line drug and the only platinum-based drug approved for the treatment of colon cancer. Together, the present results indicate that introducing fluorine into tetrazolato-bridged complexes may be useful for modulating in vivo activities.

In this data file, the synthetic procedures for the preparation of a series of anticancer tetrazolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes ([{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]n+ (n = 1 or 2, tetrazolato-bridged complexes)) and of the bridging ligands of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles (5-R-1H-tetrazoles) are described. These compounds were characterized by 1H-, 13C-, 19F- and 195Pt-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
RESUMO
We synthesized and characterized 15 new derivatives of the highly anticancer-active platinum(II) complex [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]2+ (5-H-Y) by making substitutions at tetrazole C5. We then evaluated the comprehensive structure-cytotoxicity relationships of a total of 23 derivatives in two murine lymphocytic leukaemia cell lines, sensitive and resistant to cisplatin. We also report the in vivo antitumor efficacy of three ester derivatives, two of which exhibited much higher efficacy than oxaliplatin against mouse homografted Colon-26 colorectal tumor.

The development of a sensitive and accurate analytical method for monitoring aminoglycosides in food, environmental, and clinical samples is needed for many purposes. This study found that the responses of sodiated and protonated aminoglycosides in hydrophilic interaction chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry were enhanced upon addition of sodium acetate in methanol (5 mg L-1 at a flow rate of 0.2 mL min-1) as a post-column reagent. The sensitivities of sodiated spectinomycin, kanamycin, gentamicins, neomycin, and amikacin were significantly higher than those of the protonated molecules. Streptomycin and dihydrostreptomycin only formed protonated molecules, suggesting the preferential ionisation of the guanidine moieties in these aminoglycosides. The limits of quantification of these aminoglycosides were 0.19-2.5 ng mL-1. Notably, this is the first quantification of aminoglycosides that uses the sodiated molecules. The enhancement technique enables us to eliminate a concentration step from the clean-up process from food samples. We also proposed a rapid analytical method for residual aminoglycosides in milk and meat samples; validation showed good accuracy and precision of this method at the Japanese maximum residual limits of aminoglycosides (40-500 µg kg-1). The application of this method to contaminated bovine tissues revealed remarkably high residual levels of kanamycin. This technique will be useful for the sensitive detection of aminoglycosides not only in food, but also in environmental samples and human plasma.

The series of tetrazolato-bridged complexes with the formula [{cisPt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-H-tetrazolato-N1,N2)]2+ (5-H-X) or [{cisPt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]n+ (R=H (5-H-Y), CH3 (1), CH2COOCH2CH3 (2), CH2COO- (3), n=2 (5-H-Y, 1, 2) or 1 (3)) are promising candidate complexes for formulation as next-generation platinum-based anticancer drugs that form multimodal bindings with DNA molecules. These multimodal bindings involve both non-covalent and covalent interactions, the latter of which are acknowledged to be essential for platinum-based drugs to exert their anticancer activity. In the present study, the tetrazolato-bridged complexes reacted with two molar equivalents of guanosine-5'-monophosphate (GMP) to yield the 1:2 reaction products [{cisPt(NH3)2(GMP-N7)}2(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N1,N3)]2- or 1-. This reaction was accompanied by an intramolecular Pt(II) migration that contributed to the formation of diverse DNA crosslinking, such as interhelical crosslinks. The second-order reaction rate constants for the reactions performed in phosphate-buffered D2O solution showed that the reactivity of the complexes decreased in the order 5-H-Xâ³5-H-Y>2â³1>3 and that reactivity was correlated with the cytotoxicity of the complexes. A similar result was obtained for the reaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA in which the formation of covalent DNA adducts was quantified by means of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. These results suggest that overall charge affects the kinetics of the reactions of platinum complexes with GMP and calf thymus DNA. Thus, the positive charge of the complexes affects not only the non-covalent but also the covalent interactions between the complexes and nucleotides and DNA, which are negatively charged molecules.

Derivatives of the highly antitumor-active compound [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]2+ (5-H-Y), which is a tetrazolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complex, were prepared by substituting a linear alkyl chain moiety at C5 of the tetrazolate ring. The general formula for the derivatives is [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)]2+, where R is (CH2)nCH3 and n = 0 to 8 (complexes 1-9). The cytotoxicity of complexes 1-4 in NCI-H460 human non-small-cell lung cancer cells decreased with increasing alkyl chain length, and those of complexes 5-9 increased with increasing alkyl chain length. That is, the in vitro cytotoxicity of complexes 1-9 was found to have a U-shaped association with alkyl chain length. This U-shaped association is attributable to the degree of intracellular accumulation. Although circular dichroism spectroscopic measurement indicated that complexes 1-9 induced comparable conformational changes in the secondary structure of DNA, the tetrazolato-bridged complexes induced different degrees of DNA compaction as revealed by a single DNA measurement with fluorescence microsopy, which also had a U-shaped association with alkyl chain length that matched the association observed for cytotoxicity. Complexes 7-9, which had alkyl chains long enough to confer surfactant-like properties to the complex, induced DNA compaction 20 or 1000 times more efficiently than 5-H-Y or spermidine. A single DNA measurement with transmission electron microscopy revealed that complex 8 formed large spherical self-assembled structures that induced DNA compaction with extremely high efficiency. This result suggests that these structures may play a role in the DNA compaction that was induced by the complexes with the longer alkyl chains. The derivatization with a linear alkyl chain produced a series of complexes with unique cellular accumulation and DNA conformational change profiles and a potentially useful means of developing next-generation platinum-based anticancer drugs. In addition, the markedly high ability of these complexes to induce DNA compaction and their high intracellular accumulation emphasized the difference in mechanism of action from platinum-based anticancer drugs.

A validation study was carried out on a rapid method for the simultaneous determination of pesticide residues in vegetables and fruits by LC-MS/MS. Preparation of the test solution was performed by a solid-phase extraction technique with QuEChERS (STQ method). Pesticide residues were extracted with acetonitrile using a homogenizer, followed by salting-out and dehydration at the same time. The acetonitrile layer was purified with C18 and PSA mini-columns. The method was assessed for 130 pesticide residues in 14 kinds of vegetables and fruits at the concentration level of 0.01 µg/g according to the method validation guideline of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan. As a result 75 to 120 pesticide residues were determined satisfactorily in the tested samples. Thus, this method could be useful for a rapid and simultaneous determination of multi-class pesticide residues in various vegetables and fruits.

Chromatin DNA must be read out for various cellular functions, and copied for the next cell division. These processes are targets of many anticancer agents. Platinum-based drugs, such as cisplatin, have been used extensively in cancer chemotherapy. The drug-DNA interaction causes DNA crosslinks and subsequent cytotoxicity. Recently, it was reported that an azolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complex, 5-H-Y, exhibits a different anticancer spectrum from cisplatin. Here, using an interdisciplinary approach, we reveal that the cytotoxic mechanism of 5-H-Y is distinct from that of cisplatin. 5-H-Y inhibits DNA replication and also RNA transcription, arresting cells in the S/G2 phase, and are effective against cisplatin-resistant cancer cells. Moreover, it causes much less DNA crosslinking than cisplatin, and induces chromatin folding. 5-H-Y will expand the clinical applications for the treatment of chemotherapy-insensitive cancers.

We examined the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake in L1210 murine leukemia cells, as well as the coordinative reaction with the guanine derivative 9-ethylguanine (9EtG), of a series of µ-hydroxo-µ-tetrazolato dinuclear platinum(II) complexes (tetrazolato-bridged complexes), [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N1,N2)](2+) (5-H-X) and [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)](n+), where R = H (5-H-Y), CH3 (1), C6H5 (2), CH2COOCH2CH3 (3), or CH2COO(-) (4), and n = 2 (5-H-Y, 1-3) or 1 (4). Most tetrazolato-bridged complexes overcame cross-resistance to cisplatin and were more efficiently taken up into cisplatin-resistant cells (L1210R) than into parental cisplatin-sensitive cells (L1210), whereas cisplatin uptake into L1210R was decreased compared with that into L1210. The cellular uptake was most likely controlled by the total charge of the complexes. There was no correlation between the cytotoxicity and the kinetics of the coordinative reactions of 1-4 with 9EtG, but the isomerization involved in the reactions could contribute to determining the higher order structures of the compacted DNA. The cytotoxicity of tetrazolato-bridged complexes appears to correlate with the efficiency of cellular uptake and DNA compaction.

Here, we used circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence microscopy (FM) to examine the interactions of a series of antitumor-active tetrazolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes, [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-5-R-tetrazolato-N2,N3)](n+) (R=CH3 (1), C6H5 (2), CH2COOCH2CH3 (3), CH2COO(-) (4), n=2 (1-3) or 1 (4)), which are derivatives of [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N2,N3)](2+) (5-H-Y), with DNA to elucidate the influence of these interactions on the secondary or higher-order structure of DNA and reveal the mechanism of action. The CD study showed that three derivatives, 1-3, with a double-positive charge altered the secondary structures of calf thymus DNA but that 4, the only complex with a single positive charge, induced almost no change, implying that the B- to C-form conformational change is influenced by ionic attraction. Unexpectedly, single-molecule observations with FM revealed that 4 changed the higher-order structure of T4 DNA into the compact-globule state most efficiently, at the lowest concentration, which was nearly equal to that of 5-H-Y. These contradictory results suggest that secondary structural changes are not necessarily linked to higher-order ones, and that the non-coordinative interaction could be divided into two distinct interactions: (1) ionic attraction and (2) hydrogen bonding and/or van der Waals contact. The relationship between diffusion-controlled non-coordinative DNA interactions and cytotoxicities is also discussed.

The interactions of four antitumor azolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes, [{cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)}(2)(µ-OH)(µ-azolato)](2+), with calf thymus DNA were monitored dose- and time-dependently, by using circular dichroism. Complexes 1-4 reacted with DNA via a two-step interaction that comprised a prompt diffusion-controlled reaction, which induced a B- to C-form transition, and a relatively slow temperature-dependent reaction.

Cytotoxicity assays of azolato-bridged dinuclear Pt(II) complexes, [{cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)}(2)(µ-OH)(µ-azolato)](2+), where the azolato was pyrazolato (1), 1,2,3-triazolato-N1,N2 (2), tetrazolato-N1,N2 (3), or tetrazolato-N2,N3 (4), were performed in cisplatin-sensitive and -resistant human non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines (PC-9 and PC-14). These complexes largely circumvented the cisplatin resistance in both cell lines, with resistance factors for 1-4 in the range of 0.5-0.8 and 0.9-2.0 for PC-9 and PC-14 cells, respectively. Complex 4 exhibited approximately 10 times the cytotoxicity of 3. When 3 and 4 were reacted with 2 molar equiv. of 9-ethylguanine (9EtG), they yielded an identical product, [{cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)(9EtG-N7)}(2)(µ-tetrazolato-N1,N3)](3+), that had N1,N3 platinum coordination through a Pt(II) migration process on the tetrazolate ring. The second-order rate kinetics of these isomers were almost the same as each other and faster than those of 1 and 2. The cytotoxicity of azolato-bridged complexes, except for 3, increases as their kinetic rates in the 9EtG reaction increase.

We investigated the effects of antitumor-active tetrazolato-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes [{cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)}(2)(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N(1),N(2))](2+) (1) and [{cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)}(2)(µ-OH)(µ-tetrazolato-N(2),N(3))](2+) (2) on the higher-order structure of a large DNA molecule (T4 phage DNA, 166 kbp) in aqueous solution through single-molecule observation by fluorescence microscopy. Complexes 1 and 2 cause irreversible compaction of DNA through an intermediate state in which coil and compact parts coexist in a single DNA molecule. The potency of compaction is in the order 2 > 1 â« cisplatin. Transmission electron microscopic observation showed that both complexes collapsed DNA into an irregularly packed structure. Circular dichroism measurements revealed that the dinuclear platinum(II) complexes change the secondary structure of DNA from the B to C form. These characteristics of platinum(II) complexes are markedly different from those of the usual condensing agents such as spermidine(3+) and [Co(III)(NH(3))(6)](3+). The ability to cause DNA compaction by the platinum(II) complexes is discussed in relation to their potent antitumor activity.

BACKGROUND: Wheat protein and its derivatives can cause protein contact dermatitis (PCD), which mainly occurs in bakers. Few studies have attempted to identify the allergens responsible for wheat PCD. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify allergenic wheat proteins in patients with wheat PCD. METHODS: Water-soluble and water-insoluble wheat flour proteins were separated by 1- or 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. IgE-binding proteins were detected by immunoblotting with sera from 3 wheat PCD patients and identified by N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis. The IgE-binding proteins were recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli and tested against patients' sera. RESULTS: IgE antibodies from the patients' sera reacted with water-soluble proteins rather than water-insoluble proteins, and the 2-dimensional electrophoresis and immunoblotting produced individual IgE-binding patterns. Analysis of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the IgE-binding proteins from the 2-dimensional gel led to the identification of three glycoproteins, wheat 27-kDa allergen, peroxidase, and purple acid phosphatase. No specific IgE antibodies to their non-glycosylated recombinant proteins were observed. CONCLUSIONS: We identified wheat 27-kDa allergen, peroxidase and purple acid phosphatase as candidate allergens for wheat PCD. Our results suggest that glycan moieties in these proteins are involved in IgE binding.
