Abstract
This paper presents a new scaffold made from graphene oxide nanosheets, calix[4]arene supramolecules, silk fibroin proteins, cobalt ferrite nanoparticles, and alginate hydrogel (GO-CX[4]/SF/CoFe2O4/Alg). After preparing the composite, we conducted various analyses to examine its structure. These analyses included FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDS, VSM, DLS, and zeta potential tests. Additionally, we performed tests to evaluate the swelling ratio, rheological properties, and compressive mechanical strength of the material. The biological capability of the composite was tested through biocompatiblity, anticancer, hemolysis, antibacterial anti-biofilm assays. Besides, the rheological properties and swelling behaviour of the composite were studied. The results showed that the scaffold is biocompatible with Hu02 cells and the cell viability percentages of 85.23 %, 82.78 %, and 80.18 % for were acquired for 24, 48, and 72 h, respectively. In contrast, the cell viability percentage of BT549 cancer cells were obtained 65.79 %, 60.45 % and 58.16 % for same period which confirmed notable anticancer activity of the product composite. Moreover, a significant antibacterial growth inhibition against E. coli and S. aureus species highlights its potential as an effective antibacterial agent. Furthermore, the observed minimal hemolytic effect (6.56 %) and strong inhibition of P. aeruginosa biofilm formation with a low OD value (0.24) indicate notable hemocompatibility and antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Nano structured ion-selective membranes (ISMs) are very attractive materials for a wide range of sensing and ion separation applications. The present review focuses on the design principles of various ISMs; nanostructured and ionophore/ion acceptor doped ISMs, and their use in biomedical engineering. Applications of ISMs in the biomedical field have been well-known for more than half a century in potentiometric analysis of biological fluids and pharmaceutical products. However, the emergence of nanotechnology and sophisticated sensing methods assisted in miniaturising ion-selective electrodes to needle-like sensors that can be designed in the form of implantable or wearable devices (smartwatch, tattoo, sweatband, fabric patch) for health monitoring. This article provides a critical review of recent advances in miniaturization, sensing and construction of new devices over last decade (2011-2021). The designing of tunable ISM with biomimetic artificial ion channels offered intensive opportunities and innovative clinical analysis applications, including precise biosensing, controlled drug delivery and early disease diagnosis. This paper will also address the future perspective on potential applications and challenges in the widespread use of ISM for clinical use. Finally, this review details some recommendations and future directions to improve the accuracy and robustness of ISMs for biomedical applications.

Elucidating sensing mechanisms of a pyrene excimer-based calix[4]arene for ratiometric detection of Hg(ii) and Ag(i) and chemosensor behaviour as INHIBITION or IMPLICATION logic gates. RSC Adv 2020; 10:21963-21973.

Abstract
This article reports the synthesis and characterisation of two lower rim calix[4]arene derivatives with thiourea as spacer and pyrene or methylene-pyrene as fluorophore. Both derivatives exhibit a fluorimetric response towards Hg2+, Ag+ and Cu2+. Only methylene-pyrenyl derivative 2 allows for selective detection of Hg2+ and Ag+ by enhancement or decrease of excimer emission, respectively. The limits of detection of 2 are 8.11 nM (Hg2+) and 2.09 nM (Ag+). DFT and TD-DFT computational studies were carried out and used to identify possible binding modes that explain the observed response during fluorescence titrations. Calculations revealed the presence of different binding sites depending on the conformation of 2, which suggest a reasonable explanation for non-linear changes in fluorescence depending on the physical nature of the interaction between metal centre and conformer. INHIBITION and IMPLICATION logic gates have also been generated monitoring signal outputs at pyrene monomer (395 nm) and excimer (472 nm) emission, respectively. Thus 2 is a potential primary sensor towards Ag+ and Hg2+ able to configure two different logic gate operations.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Biological Activity of a Multidentate Calix[4]arene Ligand Doubly Functionalized by 2-Hydroxybenzeledene-Thiosemicarbazone. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25020370. [PMID: 31963211 PMCID: PMC7024204 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25020370] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2019] [Revised: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The design and synthesis of a novel tert-butyl-calix[4]arene functionalized at 1, 3 positions of the lower rim with two terminal 2-hydroxybenzeledene-thiosemicarbazone moieties is reported. The new ligand with multi-dentate chelating properties was fully characterized by several techniques: ESI-Mass spectroscopy, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The solid state structure confirms that the calix[4]arene macrocycle has the expected open cone conformation, with two opposite phenyl rings inclined outwards with large angles. The conformation of the two alkoxythiosemicarbazone arms produces a molecule with a C2 point group symmetry. An interesting chiral helicity is observed, with the two thiosemicarbazone groups oriented in opposite directions like a two-blade propeller. A water molecule is encapsulated in the center of the two-blade propeller through multiple H-bond coordinations. The antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, and cytotoxic activities of the calix[4]arene-thiosemicarbazone ligand and its metal derivatives (Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) were investigated. A considerable antibacterial activity (in particular against E. coli, MIC, and MBC = 31.25 μg/mL) was observed for the ligand and its metal derivatives. Significant antifungal activities against yeast (C. albicans) were also observed for the ligand (MIC = 31.25 μg/mL and MBC = 125 μg/mL) and for its Co2+ derivative (MIC = 62.5 μg/mL). All compounds show cytotoxicity against the tested cancerous cells. For the Saos-2 cell line, the promising anticancer activity of ligand L (IC50 < 25 μg/mL) is higher than its metal derivatives. The microscopic analysis of DAPI-stained cells shows that the treated cells change in morphology, with deformation and fragmentation of the nuclei. The hemo-compatibility study demonstrated that this class of compounds are suitable candidates for further in vivo investigations.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesized a new thiosemicarbazide-functionalized calix[4]arene L and its Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ transition metal complexes. For characterization several techniques were employed: Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C-NMR, 15N-NMR, correlation spectroscopy (COZY), nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY), electrospray ionization (ESI)-mass spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and elemental analysis. To explore the capability of the thiosemicarbazide function hosted on a calix[4]arene scaffold for growth inhibition of bacteria, fungi, and cancerous tumor cells, a series of biological evaluations were performed. For L, the antimicrobial tests revealed a higher antibacterial activity against gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and a lower activity against gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa), whereas the gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus shows resistance. All examined metal derivatives show an enhancement of the antibacterial activity against gram-negative E. coli bacteria, with a more significant improvement for the Ni2+ and Zn2+ complexes. MTT assays showed a considerable in vitro anticancer activity of Co2+, Ni2+, and Cu2+ complexes against Saos-2 bone cancer cell lines. The activity is ascribable to the inorganic ions rather than calixarene ligand. Hemolysis assay results demonstrated that all compounds have high blood compatibility.
