Abstract
The work aimed to investigate the biocompatibility and biological activity of the water-soluble fullerene adduct C60-Arg. It was found that the material is haemocompatible, is not cyto- and genotoxic, possesses pronounced antioxidant activity. Additionally, this paper outlines the direction of application of water-soluble fullerene adducts in the creation of neuroprotectors. It has been suggested that a putative mechanism of the protective action of the C60-Arg adduct is associated with its antioxidant properties, the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, and release nitrogen monoxide as a result of the catabolism of L-arginine residues, which promote vascular relaxation. The action of the C60-Arg adduct was compared with the action of such an antioxidant as Edaravone, which is approved in Japan for the treatment of ischemic and haemorrhagic strokes.

Abstract
Fullerenes are carbon molecules that are found in nature in various forms. They are composed of hexagonal and pentagonal rings that create closed structures. Almost 4 decades ago, fullerenes were identified in the form of C60 and C70, and following the award of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this discovery in 1996, many laboratories started working on their water-soluble derivatives that could be used in different industries, including pharmaceutical industries. One of the first fullerene forms that was the focus of different research groups was fullerenol, C60(OH)n (n = 2-44). Both in-vitro and in-vivo studies have shown that polyhydroxylate fullerene derivatives can potentially be used as either antioxidative agents or cytostatics (depending on their co-administration, forms, and concentration/dose) in biological systems. The current review aimed to present a critical view of the potential applications and limitations of fullerenols in oncology, as understood from the past 2 decades of research.

Abstract
The effect of the interaction between fullerenol C60(OH)36 (FUL) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. As shown in the study, the fluorescence intensities of ADH and HSA at excitation wavelengths λex = 280 nm (Trp, Tyr) and λex = 295 nm (Trp) are decreased with the increase in the FUL concentration. The results of time-resolved measurements indicate that both quenching mechanisms, dynamic and static, are present. The binding constant Kb and the number of binding sites were obtained for HSA and ADH. Thus, the results indicated the formation of FUL complexes and proteins. However, the binding of FUL to HSA is much stronger than that of ADH. The transfer of energy from the protein to FUL was also proved.

Abstract
Functionalization of the fullerene core with amino acids has become a new and promising direction in the field of nanochemistry. The biologic activity of water-soluble fullerene derivatives is based on such properties as lipophilicity, electron deficiency and photosensitivity. The complex of above-mentioned properties can be used to develop protection of biomolecules (in particular, proteins) from external physical and chemical influences. Thus, development and up-scaling of synthesis procedures, as well as investigation of the biological properties of these derivatives, are extremely important. This paper presents new data on the biocompatibility studies of C60 fullerene adduct with L-methionine (C60[C5H11NO2S]3; C60-Met). Antiradical activity, binding to human serum albumin (HSA), collagen and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), hemocompatibility, photodynamic properties, genotoxicity and cytotoxicity were studied. In addition, it was found that C60-Met increases the photostability of the collagen molecule, and this effect is dose-dependent.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive biosensing platform for DNA and ochratoxin A (OTA) detection is constructed based on the luminescence quenching ability of fullerenol quantum dots (FOQDs) for the first time. As the surface of FOQDs is largely covered by hydroxyl groups, stable colloidal suspension of FOQDS in aqueous solution can be obtained, which is very advantageous for application in biosensing compared to nano-C60. FOQDs can effectively quench the fluorescence of dyes with different emission wavelengths that are tagged to bioprobes to an extent of more than 87% in aqueous buffer solution through a PET mechanism. Moreover, the nonspecific quenching of the fluorescent dyes (not bound to bioprobes) caused by FOQDs is negligible, so the background signal is extremely low which is beneficial for improving the detection sensitivity. Based on the π-π stacking interaction between FOQDs and bioprobes, such as single-stranded (ss) DNA and aptamers, a nucleic acid assay with a detection of limit of 15 pM and a highly sensitive OTA assay with a detection limit of 5 pg mL-1 in grape juice samples are developed through the simple "mix and measure" protocol based on luminescence quenching-and-recovery. This is the first demonstration of constructing biosensors utilizing the luminescence quenching ability of FOQDs through a PET mechanism, and the pronounced assay performance implies the promising potential of FOQDs in biosensing.

Abstract
The morphology of nanomaterials may affect their interaction with biomacromolecules such as proteins. Previous work has studied the size-dependent binding of pristine nC60 to bovine/human serum albumin using the fluorometric method and found that the fluorescence inner filter effect might affect this interaction. However, if it is necessary to accurately calculate and obtain binding information, the fluorescence inner filter effect should not be ignored. This work aimed to further investigate the effect of the fluorescence inner filter on the interaction between pristine nC60 with different particle sizes (140–160, 120–140, 90–110, 50–70, and 30–50 nm) and bovine serum albumin for a more accurate comprehension of the binding of pristine nC60 to bovine serum albumin. The nC60 nanoparticles with different size distributions used in the experiments were obtained by the solvent displacement and centrifugation method. UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to study the binding of nC60 with different size distributions to bovine serum albumin (BSA) before and after eliminating the fluorescence inner filter effect. The results showed that the fluorescence inner filter effect had an influence on the interaction between nC60 and proteins to some extent, and still did not change the rule of the size-dependent binding of nC60 nanoparticles to BSA. Further studies on the binding parameters (binding constants and the number of binding sites) between them were performed, and the effect of the binding on BSA structures and conformation were also speculated.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the uptake and accumulation of fullerenol C60(OH)36 into peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Some additional studies were also performed: measurement of fullerenol nanoparticle size, zeta potential, and the influence of fullerenol on the ionizing radiation-induced damage to PMBCs. Fullerenol C60(OH)36 demonstrated an ability to accumulate in PBMCs. The accumulation of fullerenol in those cells did not have a significant effect on cell survival, nor on the distribution of phosphatidylserine in the plasma membrane. However, fullerenol-induced depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane proportional to the compound level in the medium was observed. Results also indicated that increased fullerenol level in the medium was associated with its enhanced transport into cells, corresponding to its influence on the mitochondrial membrane. The obtained results clearly showed the ability of C60(OH)36 to enter cells and its effect on PBMC mitochondrial membrane potential. However, we did not observe radioprotective properties of fullerenol under the conditions used in our study.

Abstract
Carbon nanostructures (CNs), such as carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, carbon dots, nanodiamonds as well as graphene and its derivatives present a tremendous potential for various biomedical applications, ranging from sensing to drug delivery and gene therapy, biomedical imaging and tissue engineering. Since most of these applications encompass blood contact or intravenous injection, hemocompatibility is a critical aspect that must be carefully considered to take advantage of CN exceptional characteristics while allowing their safe use. This review discusses the hemocompatibility of different classes of CNs with the purpose of providing biomaterial scientists with a comprehensive vision of the interactions between CNs and blood components. The various complex mechanisms involved in blood compatibility, including coagulation, hemolysis, as well as the activation of complement, platelets, and leukocytes will be considered. Special attention will be paid to the role of CN size, structure, and surface properties in the formation of the protein corona and in the processes that drive blood response. The aim of this review is to emphasize the importance of hemocompatibility for CNs intended for biomedical applications and to provide some valuable insights for the development of new generation particles with improved performance and safety in the physiological environment.

Abstract
The impact of fullerene C60 water soluble daughter molecules - fullerols C60(OH)24 nanoparticles (FNP) on emerging (non-aflatoxin biosynthetic pathway) toxins production in mycelia and yeast extract sucrose (YES) media of A. flavus was investigated under growth conditions of 29 °C in the dark for a 168 h period. The FNP solution (10, 100 and 1000 ng mL−1) contained predominantly nanoparticles of 8 nm diameter and with zeta potential mean value of −33 mV. Ten emerging metabolites were produced at concentrations reaching 1,745,035 ng 50 mL−1 YES medium. Seven of the metabolites were found in mycelia and media, while three were only in mycelia. Majority of the metabolites were detected in higher quantity in mycelia than in media, at a ratio of 99:1 (m/m). However, higher metabolite quantities were found in media following FNP application, while FNP caused a decrease of total metabolite quantities in mycelia. The concentrations of the metabolites in media increased in the presence of 1000 ng mL−1 FNP while mycelial quantities of the metabolites decreased with increased applied FNP dose. The impacts of global climate changes on FNP availability in the environment and on mycotoxin occurrence in crops increase the relevance of this study for risk assessment of nanoparticles. Cordycepin is reported for the first time as metabolite of A. flavus.

Abstract
The interactions of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG) and anthracycline drugs (doxorubicin, DOX and epirubicin, EPI) alone or in combination with human serum albumin (HSA) under physiological condition were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The cytotoxic activity of the single drug, combined drugs, and their complexes with HSA against human cervical cancer HeLa cell line was determined by MTT assay. Fluorescence quenching result and difference spectra of UV absorption revealed the formation of static complex between EGCG, DOX, or EPI and HSA. The binding of EGCG with HSA was driven by both enthalpy and entropy while the binding of DOX or EPI was mainly entropy driven. The nature of binding was expounded based on the effect of sodium chloride, tetrabutylammonium bromide, and sucrose which interfere in electrostatic, hydrophobic, and hydrogen bonding interactions, respectively. Site marker competitive experiments combined with synchronous fluorescence spectra showed that these three ligands mainly bound to subdomain IIA of HSA and were closer to tryptophan residues. In EGCG + DOX/EPI + HSA ternary system, the effect of one drug on the binding ability of another drug was discussed. The influences of the individual and combined binding of EGCG and DOX/EPI on the secondary structure and particle size of HSA were investigated by CD spectroscopy and DLS, respectively. Moreover, the synergistic cytotoxicity of EGCG and DOX/EPI as well as their complexes with HSA were discussed. Obtained results would provide beneficial information on the combination of EGCG and anthracyclines in clinic.

Abstract
The study of biomolecular interactions is crucial to get more insight into the biological system. The interactions of protein-protein, protein-nucleic acids, protein-sugars, nucleic acid-nucleic acids and protein-small molecules are supporting therapeutics and technological developments. Recently, the development in a large number of analytical techniques for characterizing biomolecular interactions reflect the promising research investments in this field. In this review, microscale thermophoresis technology (MST) is presented as an analytical technique for characterizing biomolecular interactions. Recent years have seen much progress and several applications established. MST is a powerful technique in quantitation of binding events based on the movement of molecules in microscopic temperature gradient. Simplicity, free solutions analysis, low sample volume, short analysis time, and immobilization free are the MST advantages over other competitive techniques. A wide range of studies in biomolecular interactions have been successfully carried out using MST, which tend to the versatility of the technique to use in screening binding events in order to save time, cost and obtained high data quality.
