Abstract
Drug resistance significantly hampers the clinical application of existing platinum-based anticancer drugs. New platinum medications that possess distinct mechanisms of action are highly desired for the treatment of Pt-resistant cancers. Herein, a nanoscale trans-platinum(II)-based supramolecular coordination self-assembly (Pt-TCPP-BA) is prepared via using trans-[PtCl2(pyridine)(NH3)] (transpyroplatin), tetracarboxylporphyrin (TCPP), and benzoic acid (BA) as building blocks to combat drug resistance in platinum-based chemotherapy. Mechanistic studies indicate that Pt-TCPP-BA shows a hydrogen-peroxide-responsive dissociation behavior along with the generation of bioactive trans-Pt(II) and TCPP-Pt species. Different from cisplatin, these degradation products interact with DNA via interstrand cross-links and small groove binding, and induce significant upregulation of cell-death-related proteins such as p53, cleaved caspase 3, p21, and phosphorylated H2A histone family member X in cisplatin-resistant cancer cells. As a result, Pt-TCPP-BA exhibits potent killing effects against Pt-resistant tumors both in vitro and in vivo. Overall, this work not only provides a new platinum drug for combating drug-resistant cancer but also offers a new paradigm for the development of platinum-based supramolecular anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The interaction of a photoactivatable diazidodihydroxido Pt(IV) prodrug, trans,trans,trans-[Pt(N3)2(OH)2(py)2] (py = pyridine; 1), with a hexamer straight human telomeric DNA unit sequence (5'-T1T2A3G4G5G6-3', I) upon light irradiation was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS). In the primary mass spectrum, two major mono-platinated I adducts with the bound Pt moieties, trans-[PtII(N3)(py)2]+ (1') and trans-[PtII(py)2]2+ (1''), respectively, were detected. It is rare to observe such high abundance and nearly equal intensity platinated DNA adducts formed by these two PtII species because 1' is usually the only major reduced Pt(II) species produced by the photodecomposition of complex 1 in the presence of DNA while 1'' was rarely detected as the major reduced PtII species reported previously. Subsequent tandem mass spectrometric analysis by collision-induced dissociation (CID) showed that in the former adduct {I + 1'}2+, G6 and A3 were the platination sites. While in the latter adduct {I + 1''}2+, a potential intrastrand crosslink was speculated after G4 and G6 sites were identified. Additionally, other minor platinated adducts like di-platinated I adduct by 1' with platination sites at G4 and G6 and mono-platinated I adducts containing base oxidation were also detected by mass spectrometry. Due to the rich guanines and their sensitivity to oxidation, the oxidation induced by 1 most probably occurred at guanine. The oxidation adducts were proposed as 8-hydroxyl guanine, spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyG), 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh), and/or dehydroguanidinohydantoin (DGh) referring to previous reports. The obtained results provide useful chemical information about the photoreaction between photoactivatable Pt(IV) anticancer prodrugs and human telomeric DNA. Such special damages of Pt(IV) prodrugs on human telomeric DNA implicate its active role in the mechanism of Pt(IV) prodrugs and further support the unique sequence-dependent photointeraction profile of complex 1 reacting with DNA.

Abstract
CpG and its cytosine-methylated counterpart (5mCpG) are a unique reversible pair of sequences in regulating the expression of genes epigenetically. As DNA is the potential target of Pt-based anticancer metallodrugs, herein, we comparatively investigate the interactions of 5'-CpG and 5'-5mCpG with a photoactivatable anticancer Pt(IV) prodrug, trans,trans,trans-[PtIV(N3)2(OH)2(py)2] (1; py = pyridine), to explore the effects of methylation on the platination and ROS-induced oxidation of the CpG motif. Mono-platinated dinucleotides were demonstrated by ESI-MS to be the main products for both 5'-CpG and 5'-5mCpG with the bound Pt moiety as [PtII(N3)(py)2] generated by the photodecomposition of complex 1 under irradiation with blue light, accompanied by the formation of less abundant di-platinated adducts. G-N7 and C-N3/5mC-N3 were shown to be the major and minor platination sites, respectively, with G-N1 as the third and weakest platination site, in particular, in di-platinated products. Moreover, platinated dinucleotides associated with guanine and/or cytosine oxidation were also observed. Apart from 8-oxo-guanine (oxG) and N-formylamidoiminohydantoin (RedSp) reported previously, novel oxidation adducts 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh) derived from guanine and 1-carbamoyl-4,5-dihydroxy-2-oxoimidazolidine (ImidCyt) derived from cytosine in CpG, and diimino imidazole (DIz) and 2,5-diaminoimidazol-4-one (imidazolone, Iz) derived from guanine and Imid5mCyt derived from 5mC in 5mCpG were proposed according to MS information. These results showed that methylation exerted little effects on the platination modes of CpG, but triggered distinct oxidation pathways of CpG, perhaps causing discriminated DNA damage to CpG-rich genes. This work provides novel insights into the role of the anticancer photoactivatable Pt(IV) prodrug through damaging the epigenetically modified DNA sequences.

Abstract
It is well reported in the literature that caffeine, the most consumed alkaloid around the world, enhances the anticancer effects of the drug cisplatin by inhibiting DNA repair by the cellular machinery. Here, we perform single-molecule force spectroscopy assays with optical tweezers to show that caffeine enhances the toxicity not only of cisplatin but also of various different platinum-based drugs already at the molecular level, using samples containing only double-stranded (ds)DNA, platinum drugs, and the alkaloid in a simple phosphate buffer, that is, completely out of the complex environment found inside real living cells. In fact, our results show that caffeine acts as an allosteric catalyst which increases the effective equilibrium binding constant between DNA and the platinum drugs, also interfering in the cooperativity of the binding reactions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that such a property of caffeine was demonstrated and characterized from a pure physicochemical perspective, outside the cellular environment. Thus, the present work provides new insights into the use of this alkaloid for current chemotherapeutic applications.

Abstract
By performing single-molecule force spectroscopy with optical tweezers, we have characterized the interaction between the platinum-based compound transplatin and the DNA molecule, establishing a critical comparison with its isomer cisplatin. While transplatin is ineffective against tumor cells, its isomer is one of the most used drugs in current chemotherapies, and a molecular study on this difference performed at the single-molecule level was lacking until the present work. Our experiments show that transplatin binds DNA under low chloride concentrations (a situation usually found inside many cells) with an equilibrium association binding constant about four orders of magnitude lower than cisplatin. In addition, we have found that, at saturation, transplatin binds preferentially forming interstrand cross links and monoadducts, a situation very different from cisplatin, which forms preferentially intrastrand cross links. Such differences explain the ineffectiveness of transplatin in killing tumor cells. From a physical point of view, the present study advances in using the mechanical properties of the DNA molecule as sensors to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of drugs.

Abstract
Despite the effectiveness of cisplatin as an anticancer agent, its trans-isomer, transplatin, is clinically ineffective. Although both isomers target nuclear DNA, there is a large difference in the magnitude of their biological effects. Here, we compared their effects on gene expression in an in vitro luciferase assay and quantified their effects on the higher-order structure of DNA using fluorescence microscopy (FM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The inhibitory effect of cisplatin on gene expression was about 7 times that of transplatin. Analysis of the fluctuation autocorrelation function of the intrachain Brownian motion of individual DNA molecules showed that cisplatin increases the spring and damping constants of DNA by one order of magnitude and these visco-elastic characteristics tend to increase gradually over several hours. Transplatin had a weaker effect, which tended to decrease with time. These results agree with a stronger inhibitory effect of cisplatin on gene expression. We discussed the characteristic effects of the two compounds on the higher-order DNA structure and gene expression in terms of the differences in their binding to DNA.

Abstract
Intracellular transport of cellular proteins and organelles is critical for establishing and maintaining intracellular organization and cell physiology. Apoptosis is a process of programmed cell death with dramatic changes in cell morphology and organization, during which signaling molecules are transported between different organelles within the cells. However, how the intracellular transport changes in cells undergoing apoptosis remains unknown. Here, we study the dynamics of intracellular transport by using the single-particle tracking method and find that both directed and diffusive motions of endocytic vesicles are accelerated in early apoptotic cells. With careful elimination of other factors involved in the intracellular transport, the reason for the acceleration is attributed to the elevation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration. More importantly, we show that the accelerated intracellular transport is critical for apoptosis, and apoptosis is delayed when the dynamics of intracellular transport is regulated back to the normal level. Our results demonstrate the important role of transport dynamics in apoptosis and shed light on the apoptosis mechanism from a physical perspective.

Abstract
Transcription factors are involved in a large number of human diseases such as cancers for which they account for about 20% of all oncogenes identified so far. For long time, with the exception of ligand-inducible nuclear receptors, transcription factors were considered as “undruggable” targets. Advances knowledge of these transcription factors, in terms of structure, function (expression, degradation, interaction with co-factors and other proteins) and the dynamics of their mode of binding to DNA has changed this postulate and paved the way for new therapies targeted against transcription factors. Here, we discuss various ways to target transcription factors in cancer models: by modulating their expression or degradation, by blocking protein/protein interactions, by targeting the transcription factor itself to prevent its DNA binding either through a binding pocket or at the DNA-interacting site, some of these inhibitors being currently used or evaluated for cancer treatment. Such different targeting of transcription factors by small molecules is facilitated by modern chemistry developing a wide variety of original molecules designed to specifically abort transcription factor and by an increased knowledge of their pathological implication through the use of new technologies in order to make it possible to improve therapeutic control of transcription factor oncogenic functions.

Abstract
Ultraviolet resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy is a label-free method to define biomacromolecular interactions with anticancer compounds. Using UVRR, we describe the binding interactions of two Pt(II) compounds, cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II)) and its isomer, transplatin, with nucleotides and genomic DNA. Cisplatin binds to DNA and other cellular components and triggers apoptosis, whereas transplatin is clinically ineffective. Here, a 244 nm UVRR study shows that purine UVRR bands are altered in frequency and intensity when mononucleotides are treated with cisplatin. This result is consistent with previous suggestions that purine N7 provides the cisplatin-binding site. The addition of cisplatin to DNA also causes changes in the UVRR spectrum, consistent with binding of platinum to purine N7 and disruption of hydrogen-bonding interactions between base pairs. Equally important is that transplatin treatment of DNA generates similar UVRR spectral changes, when compared to cisplatin-treated samples. Kinetic analysis, performed by monitoring decreases of the 1492 cm-1 band, reveals biphasic kinetics and is consistent with a two-step binding mechanism for both platinum compounds. For cisplatin-DNA, the rate constants (6.8 × 10-5 and 6.5 × 10-6 s-1) are assigned to the formation of monofunctional adducts and to bifunctional, intrastrand cross-linking, respectively. In transplatin-DNA, there is a 3.4-fold decrease in the rate constant of the slow phase, compared with the cisplatin samples. This change is attributed to generation of interstrand, rather than intrastrand, adducts. This longer reaction time may result in increased competition in the cellular environment and account, at least in part, for the lower pharmacological efficacy of transplatin.

Int J Mol Sci 2015; 16:26555-81. [PMID: 26556350 PMCID: PMC4661830 DOI: 10.3390/ijms161125971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2015] [Revised: 10/25/2015] [Accepted: 10/27/2015] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
DNA alkylating drugs have been used in clinics for more than seventy years. The diversity of their mechanism of action (major/minor groove; mono-/bis-alkylation; intra-/inter-strand crosslinks; DNA stabilization/destabilization, etc.) has undoubtedly major consequences on the cellular response to treatment. The aim of this review is to highlight the variety of established protein recognition of DNA adducts to then particularly focus on glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) function in DNA adduct interaction with illustration using original experiments performed with S23906-1/DNA adduct. The introduction of this review is a state of the art of protein/DNA adducts recognition, depending on the major or minor groove orientation of the DNA bonding as well as on the molecular consequences in terms of double-stranded DNA maintenance. It reviews the implication of proteins from both DNA repair, transcription, replication and chromatin maintenance in selective DNA adduct recognition. The main section of the manuscript is focusing on the implication of the moonlighting protein GAPDH in DNA adduct recognition with the model of the peculiar DNA minor groove alkylating and destabilizing drug S23906-1. The mechanism of action of S23906-1 alkylating drug and the large variety of GAPDH cellular functions are presented prior to focus on GAPDH direct binding to S23906-1 adducts.

Abstract
Oligonucleotides modified by clinically ineffective trans-diamminedichloridoplatinum(II) (transplatin) have been shown to be effective modulators of gene expression. This is so because in some nucleotide sequences the 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts formed by transplatin in double-helical DNA readily rearrange into interstrand cross-links so that they can cross-link the oligonucleotides to their targets. On the other hand, in a number of other sequences these intrastrand adducts are relatively stable, which represents the major difficulty in the clinical use of the antisense transplatin-modified oligonucleotides. Therefore, we examined in this study, the stability of 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts in double-helical DNA formed by a new antitumor derivative of transplatin, trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2], in the sequence contexts in which transplatin formed relatively stable intrastrand cross-links which did not readily rearranged into interstrand cross-links. We have found that 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts in double-helical DNA formed by trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2] even in such sequences readily rearrange into interstrand cross-links. This work also suggests that an enhanced frequency of intrastrand cross-links yielded by trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2] is a consequence of the fact that these DNA lesions considerably distort double-helical DNA in far more sequence contexts than parent transplatin. Our results suggest that trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2]-modified oligonucleotides represent promising candidates for new agents in antisense or antigene approach.

Abstract
Antitumor activity of cisplatin is exerted by covalent binding to DNA. For comparison, studies of cisplatin-DNA complexes often employ the very similar but inactive transplatin. In this work, thermal and thermodynamic properties of DNA complexes with these compounds were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and computer modeling. DSC demonstrates that cisplatin decreases thermal stability (melting temperature, Tm) of long DNA, and transplatin increases it. At the same time, both compounds decrease the enthalpy and entropy of the helix-coil transition, and the impact of transplatin is much higher. From Pt/nucleotide molar ratio rb=0.001, both compounds destroy the fine structure of DSC profile and increase the temperature melting range (ΔT). For cisplatin and transplatin, the dependences δTm vs rb differ in sign, while δΔT vs rb are positive for both compounds. The change in the parameter δΔT vs rb demonstrates the GC specificity in the location of DNA distortions. Our experimental results and calculations show that 1) in contrast to [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl, monofunctional adducts formed by transplatin decrease the thermal stability of long DNA at [Na(+)]>30mM; 2) interstrand crosslinks of cisplatin and transplatin only slightly increase Tm; 3) the difference in thermal stability of DNA complexes with cisplatin vs DNA complexes with transplatin mainly arises from the different thermodynamic properties of their intrastrand crosslinks. This type of crosslink appears to be responsible for the antitumor activity of cisplatin. At any [Na(+)] from interval 10-210mM, cisplatin and transplatin intrastrand crosslinks give rise to destabilization and stabilization, respectively.

Abstract
Cisplatin is the main platinum antitumor drug applied in clinical settings. However, its trans isomer, transplatin, is known to have an ineffective antitumor activity. Despite intensive studies in this field, the structural and biophysical properties of DNA molecules reacting with these two platinum complexes have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, we observed that transplatin made efficient cross-linking of DNA in the vicinity of cisplatin adducts. High-resolution atomic force microscopy studies revealed that the transplatin-induced cross-linkings of nucleotides flanking cisplatin adducts were characterized by kinked-loop structures with rod-like shapes of nanometer scales (∼10-60nm). The results were further confirmed by denaturing gel electrophoresis and single-molecule experiment using magnetic tweezers. In vivo studies revealed that transplatin and cisplatin co-treatment could induce a considerable amount of kinked loops with smaller sizes (∼15nm) in cellular DNA. Furthermore, compared with cisplatin treatment alone, the co-treatment resulted in enhanced cytotoxicity, increased amount of interstrand cross-links, and cell lesions more reluctant to cellular repair system. The results of the present study provide a new clue for understanding the stepwise reactions of DNA with platinum drugs and might serve as a basis for the development of a new antitumor strategy.

Abstract
Magnetic tweezers were employed to investigate the interactions between DNA and cisplatin (transplatin). Cisplatin shortened DNA and reduced its persistence length more significantly than transplatin due to the formation of many more diadducts than those formed by transplatin. Interestingly, the presence of transplatin could enhance the ability of cisplatin in shortening DNA. An optimal concentration ratio of transplatin to cisplatin existed at which cisplatin showed the highest ability in shortening DNA. Moreover, abrupt length changes were also observed when DNA was treated with a mixture of cisplatin and transplatin at high concentrations. A model was proposed to qualitatively explain well these results.

Abstract
DNA targeting drugs represent a large proportion of the actual anticancer drug pharmacopeia, both in terms of drug brands and prescription volumes. Small DNA-interacting molecules share the ability of certain proteins to change the DNA helix's overall organization and geometrical orientation via tilt, roll, twist, slip, and flip effects. In this ocean of DNA-interacting compounds, most stabilize both DNA strands and very few display helix-destabilizing properties. These types of DNA-destabilizing effect are observed with certain mono- or bis-intercalators and DNA alkylating agents (some of which have been or are being developed as cancer drugs). The formation of locally destabilized DNA portions could interfere with protein/DNA recognition and potentially affect several crucial cellular processes, such as DNA repair, replication, and transcription. The present paper describes the molecular basis of DNA destabilization, the cellular impact on protein recognition, and DNA repair processes and the latter's relationships with antitumour efficacy.

Abstract
Chiral substances possess a unique architecture such that, despite sharing identical molecular formulas, atom-to-atom linkages, and bonding distances, they cannot be superimposed. Thus, in the environment of living systems, where specific structure-activity relationships may be required for effect (e.g., enzymes, receptors, transporters, and DNA), the physiochemical and biochemical properties of racemic mixtures and individual stereoisomers can differ significantly. In drug development, enantiomeric selection to maximize clinical effects or mitigate drug toxicity has yielded both success and failure. Further complicating genetic polymorphisms in drug disposition, stereoselective metabolism of chiral compounds can additionally influence pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and toxicity. Optically pure pharmaceuticals may undergo racemization in vivo, negating single enantiomer benefits or inducing unexpected effects. Appropriate chiral antidotes must be selected for therapeutic benefit and to minimize adverse events. Enantiomers may possess different carcinogenicity and teratogenicity. Environmental toxicology provides several examples in which compound bioaccumulation, persistence, and toxicity show chiral dependence. In forensic toxicology, chiral analysis has been applied to illicit drug preparations and biological specimens, with the potential to assist in determination of cause of death and aid in the correct interpretation of substance abuse and "doping" screens. Adrenergic agonists and antagonist, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, SSRIs, opioids, warfarin, valproate, thalidomide, retinoic acid, N-acetylcysteine, carnitine, penicillamine, leucovorin, glucarpidase, pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, phenylethylamines, and additional compounds will be discussed to illustrate important concepts in "chiral toxicology."
