Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), especially arterial hypertension, stand as prominent contributors to global mortality. Regrettably, individuals with diabetes encounter a two-fold increase in the risk of mortality associated with CVDs. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) represents a primary intervention for hypertension, particularly in diabetic patients. Nevertheless, there has not yet been a comprehensive assessment of the biophysical characteristics regarding the impact of glucose levels on its binding affinity with human serum albumin (HSA). Thus, the present work reports the interactive profile of HSA/HCTZ in nonglycemic, normoglycemic (80 mg/dL), and hyperglycemic (320 mg/dL) conditions by time-resolved fluorescence, saturation transfer difference–nuclear magnetic resonance (STD-NMR), and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). There was a moderate ground state association of HSA/HCTZ with subdomain IIA that was affected in the presence of different glucose levels. The hyperglycemic condition decreased the binding affinity of HCTZ to subdomain IIA and increased the possibility of subdomain IB also being considered as a secondary binding site due to cooperativity and/or alterations in the protein’s structure. Overall, the glucose level under hyperglycemic conditions led to the cavities being more likely to receive more ligands, offering insights into the necessity of glucose control in the human bloodstream to not impact the residence time (pharmacokinetic profile) and pharmacotherapeutic potential of HCTZ.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
