Influence of iron- and zinc-chelating agents on neutrophil extracellular trap formation

Central European Journal of Immunology, 2021
Release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is one of the neutrophils’ mechanisms involved in the response to infection. NETs are released from the cell in response to a biological or synthetic stimulus to entrap, immobilize and kill pathogens ...

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Selection of patients for iron-chelating therapy

Клиническая онкогематология, 2013
Emergence of iron aggressive forms in patients with hematological or oncohematological diseases is potentially life-threatening. This can be caused by several situations: multiple allogeneic RBC transfusions, increased intestinal absorption of iron, or ...

Injectable Thermosensitive Hydrogels for a Sustained Release of Iron Nanochelators

Advanced Science, 2022
Deferoxamine (DFO) is an FDA‐approved iron‐chelating agent which shows good therapeutic efficacy, however, its short blood half‐life presents challenges such as the need for repeated injections or continuous infusions.

Remote Activation of Wnt Signaling and Cell Proliferation by E‐Cadherin Magnetomechanical Stimulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A pioneering magnetogenetic toolkit enables non‐invasive, precise spatiotemporal modulation of intracellular Wnt/β‐catenin signaling. Functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@E/EC15) target cellular E‐cadherins to generate localized magnetomechanical forces under low‐intensity magnetic fields.

A Critical Call for Mechanistic Investigations of Metal‐Bacteria Interactions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
It is well established that the antibacterial properties of metals have tremendous importance for bioengineering applications. What is not as appreciated, however, is the reproducibility crisis in this field's vast literature. In this perspective, we highlight this reproducibility problem, discuss its sources, and suggest solutions towards focused ...

Glycosyl-curcuminoids as potential new chelating agents in iron overload chelation therapy

, 2004
The iron(III) chelating ability of some glycosyl derivatives of curcuminoids is tested by means of UV, potentiometric and NMR studies. The pK(a) of the ligands and the stability constants of their Fe3+ and Ga3+ complexes are evaluated by UV spectroscopy.

Mitochondria and Neuromast Tagging With Fluorescent Gallium‐Triapine Analogues: In Cellulo MP FLIM and Zebrafish Live Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorescent BODIPY‐conjugated thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Ga(III), In(III), and Fe(III) complexes, inspired by Triapine, are developed as theranostic agents. Multiphoton FLIM and confocal microscopy in cancer cells and zebrafish reveal real‐time uptake, mitochondrial localisation, and whilst spectroscopic assays indicated preserved complex ...
