Solution study under physiological conditions and cytotoxic activity of the gold(III) complexes with L-histidine-containing peptides
Proton NMR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry have been applied to study the stability of three gold(III) complexes with L-histidine-containing peptides, [Au(Gly-L-His-N,N’,N’’)Cl]NO3.1.25H2O (Au1), [Au(L-Ala-L-His-N,N’,N’’)Cl]NO3.2.5H2O (Au2) and [Au(Gly-Gly-L-His-N,N’,N’’,N’’’)]Cl.H2O...

description | Proton NMR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry have been applied to study the
stability of three gold(III) complexes with L-histidine-containing peptides,
[Au(Gly-L-His-N,N’,N’’)Cl]NO3.1.25H2O (Au1),
[Au(L-Ala-L-His-N,N’,N’’)Cl]NO3.2.5H2O (Au2) and
[Au(Gly-Gly-L-His-N,N’,N’’,N’’’)]Cl.H2O (Au3) under physiologically relevant
conditions. It was found that tridentate coordination of Gly-L-His and
L-Ala-L-His dipeptides, as well as tetradentate coordination of Gly-Gly-L-His
tripeptide in Au1, Au2 and Au3 complexes, respectively, stabilized +3
oxidation state of gold and prevented its reduction to Au(I) and Au(0). No
release of the coordinated peptides from Au(III) was observed under these
experimental conditions. Considering remarkable stability of Au1, Au2 and Au3
complexes, their cytotoxic activity was evaluated by MTT
(3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay toward
five human tumor cell lines, MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma), HT-29
(human colon adenocarcinoma), HeLa (human cervix carcinoma), HL-60 (human
promyelocytic leukemia), Raji (human Burkitt’s lymphoma) and one human normal
cell line MRC-5 (human fetal lung fibroblasts). While the cytotoxic activity
of Au1, Au2 and Au3 against investigated human malignant cell lines was
strongly cell line dependent, none of these complexes was cytotoxic against
normal MRC-5 cell line. This study can contribute to the future development
of gold(III)-peptide complexes as potential antitumor agents. |
