Ferritin, a naturally occurring iron storage protein, has gained significant attention as a drug delivery platform due to its inherent biocompatibility and capacity to encapsulate therapeutic agents. In this study, we successfully genetically engineered human H ferritin by incorporating 4 or 6 tryptophan residues per subunit, strategically oriented towards the inner cavity of the nanoparticle. This modification aimed to enhance the encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs into the ferritin cage. Comprehensive characterization of the mutants revealed that only the variant carrying four tryptophan substitutions per subunit retained the ability to disassemble and reassemble properly. As a proof of concept, we evaluated the loading capacity of this mutant with ellipticine, a natural hydrophobic indole alkaloid with multimodal anticancer activity. Our data demonstrated that this specific mutant exhibited significantly higher efficiency in loading ellipticine compared to human H ferritin. Furthermore, to evaluate the versatility of this hydrophobicity-enhanced ferritin nanoparticle as a drug carrier, we conducted a comparative study by also encapsulating doxorubicin, a commonly used anticancer drug. Subsequently, we tested both ellipticine and doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles on a promyelocytic leukemia cell line, demonstrating efficient uptake by these cells and resulting in the expected cytotoxic effect.

A tyrosine kinase inhibitor, vandetanib (Van), is an anticancer drug affecting the signaling of VEGFR, EGFR and RET protooncogenes. Van is primarily used for the treatment of advanced or metastatic medullary thyroid cancer; however, its usage is significantly limited by side effects, particularly cardiotoxicity. One approach to minimize them is the encapsulation or binding of Van in- or onto a suitable carrier, allowing targeted delivery to tumor tissue. Herein, we constructed a nanocarrier based on apoferritin associated with Van (ApoVan). Based on the characteristics obtained by analyzing the average size, the surface ζ-potential and the polydispersive index, ApoVan nanoparticles exhibit long-term stability and maintain their morphology. Experiments have shown that ApoVan complex is relatively stable during storage. It was found that Van is gradually released from its ApoVan form into the neutral environment (pH 7.4) as well as into the acidic environment (pH 6.5). The effect of free Van and ApoVan on neuroblastoma and medullary thyroid carcinoma cell lines revealed that both forms were toxic in both used cell lines, and minimal differences between ApoVan and Van were observed. Thus, we assume that Van might not be encapsulated into the cavity of apoferritin, but instead only binds to its surface.

BACKGROUND: Hereditary hyperferritinemia-cataract syndrome (HHCS) is an autosomal dominant disorder manifesting with high serum ferritin levels and the formation of early-onset cataracts, with numerous small opacities, predominantly in the lens cortex. HHCS is caused by mutations in the iron-responsive element of the FTL gene. The aim of this study was to establish a molecular diagnosis in three Czech probands with suspected HHCS. METHODS: A complex ocular and systemic evaluation, including ferritin and iron measurements, was performed. The 5' untranslated region of FTL was directly sequenced in all available family members, followed by paternity testing in one family. RESULTS: Three different FLT pathogenic variants (c.-161C>T, c.-167C>T, and c.-168G>C) present in the heterozygous state were detected in each of the 3 probands. Two segregated with the disease phenotype within the families, but c.-167C>T occurred de novo (confirmed by paternity testing). Prior to establishing molecular diagnosis, two probands were misdiagnosed with hemochromatosis. One individual, aged 43 years, underwent phlebotomy; another, aged 8.5 years, was treated with the iron chelator deferasirox, leading to life-threatening acute hyperammonemia, without severe liver injury. CONCLUSIONS: Lack of family history does not exclude HHCS, because the pathogenic variant can arise de novo. Noncoding regions are often omitted from diagnostic gene panels, thus evading detection. Careful clinical evaluations and targeted genetic screening are important for avoiding potentially harmful treatments.

Cíl: Cílem projektu je navrhnout a ověřit nanokonstrukt jako inovativní nástroj pro efektivní zacílení na bakteriální buňku. Metodika: Konstrukt SPIONs/ Au/NPs/AB1/GF/AgNPsGS/ APO/ATB je tvořen: A – stříbrná nanočástice, která byla připravena zelenou syntézou z rostlinných extraktů (AgNPsGS); B – apoferitin (APO) s enkapsulovaným antibiotikem (ATB); C – superparamagnetická zlatá nanočástice modifikovaná grafenovým listem a protilátkou (SPIONs/Au/NPs/AB1/GF). Výsledky: Nejlepší antibakteriální efekt k S. aureus byl pozorován u AgNPsGS4 (Thymus serpyllum): 0,4 μg/ ml. Efektivita enkapsulace antibiotika do nanometrické struktury apoferitinu byla okolo 15 % aplikované koncentrace. V přítomnosti nanokonstruktu byla zaznamenána dramatická inhibice S. aureus. Biologický efekt nanotransportérů spočívá ve dvou hlavních mechanismech. AgNPsGS indukují vznik reaktivních kyslíkových radikálů (ROS reactive oxygen species), což následně vede k poškození buněčné membrány bakteriální buňky a k destrukci prokaryotické nukleové kyseliny. Kromě efektu AgNPsGS se uplatňuje i účinek enkapsulovaného ATB, který se podílí na léčbě bakteriální infekce a který lze vhodně zvolit podle typu infekčního onemocnění. Dále svou roli také sehrává významný synergický efekt AgNPsGS a ATB. Závěr: Díky inovativnímu a funkčnímu spojení účinku AgNPsGS a ATB dochází ke vzniku jedinečného terapeutického nanosystému pro cílenou terapii vážných bakteriálních infekcí.

Aim: The aim of the project was to design and verify the nanoconstruct as an innovative tool for effective targeting to the bacterial cell. Methods: The SPIONs/Au/ NPs/AB1/GF/AgNPsGS/APO/ ATB construct consists of: A – a silver nanoparticle prepared by green synthesis using plant extracts (AgNPsGS); B – apoferritin (APO) with the encapsulated antibiotic (ATB); and C – a superparamagnetic gold nanoparticle modified with graphene sheet and antibody (SPIONs/Au/NPs/AB1/GF). Results: The highest antibacterial effect (Staphylococcus aureus) was observed in AgNPsGS4 (Thymus serpyllum) at a concentration of 0.4 μg/mL. The effectiveness of encapsulation of the antibiotic into the nanometric structure of apoferritin was about 15% of the applied concentration. Dramatic inhibition of S. aureus was observed in the presence of the nanoconstruct. The biological effect of nanotransporter consists in two main mechanisms. AgNPsGS induce the formation of ROS, which subsequently leads to damage to the bacterial cell membrane and destruction of prokaryotic nucleic acid. In addition to the effect of AgNPsGS, the effect of encapsulated ATB is involved in the treatment of bacterial infection. This antibiotic can be appropriately selected according to the type of infectious disease. Furthermore, a significant synergistic effect of AgNPsGS and ATB also plays a role. Conclusion: Due to the innovative and functional combination of the effects of AgNPsGS and ATB, a unique therapeutic nanosystem was created.

Východiska: Ferritin je globulární vnitrobuněčný protein, který slouží jako hlavní zásobárna železa. U nádorových onemocnění je plazmatická koncentrace ferritinu zvýšená. V řadě studií bylo zjištěno, že nádorové buňky exprimují ve zvýšené míře transferinové receptory (TfR). Zvýšená exprese TfR byla pozorována i u karcinomu prostaty. Apoferritin (APO) lze využít jako proteinový nanotransportér, do kterého je možné enkapsulovat vhodnou léčivou látku. Bylo zjištěno, že nanočástice zvyšují prostupnost nanotransportérů do nádorové buňky a vykazují fototermální efekt. Cílem projektu bylo enkapsulovat doxorubicin (DOX) do APO a vytvořený APO/DOX modifikovat zlatými (gold nanoparticles - AuNPs) a stříbrnými (silver nanoparticles prepared by green synthesis - AgNPsGS) nanočásticemi. Metody: Pro charakterizaci APO byla použita 10% gelová elektroforéza (sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - SDS-PAGE) - 120 V, 60 min, 24 mM Tris, 0,2 M glycin, 3 mM SDS. Fluorescence DOX (Ex 480 nm, Em 650 nm) s typickým absorpčním maximem v 560 nm. Elektrochemické měření bylo provedeno v Brdičkově roztoku (tříelektrodové zapojení). AgNPsGS byly připraveny zelenou syntézou z jetele lučního (Trifolium pratense L.). Výsledky: Byla provedena elektroforetická studie APO a APO/DOX (5- 100 μg//ml). Bylo sledováno chování APO a APO/DOX (10 μM) v závislosti na pH. APO v kyselém prostředí tvoří subjednotky o velikosti asi 20 kDa a v neutrálním a zásaditém prostředí se zformuje na globulární protein o velikosti asi 450 kDa. U APO/DOX byla pozorována změna mobility (asi o 10 %). Na povrchu APO/DOX byl vytvořen film z AuNPs. APO/DOX/AuNPs byl následně promyt ultračistou vodou. Bylo sledováno uvolnění DOX v závislosti na pH. Množství analyzovaného DOX se zvýšilo až o 50 %. Dále byl navržen a připraven komplex AgNPsGS-DOX (1 mg AgNPsGS/100 μM DOX). Takto připravený komplex AgNPsGS-DOX byl uzavřen do APO. Pro další zlepšení terapeutické účinnosti byl připravený komplex APO/AgNPsGS-DOX pokryt vrstvou AuNPs. Vytvořený APO/AgNPsGS-DOX/AuNPs prokázal svoji stabilitu a při změně fyzikálních parametrů byl z komplexu uvolněn DOX. Závěr: Byly připraveny a modifikovány nanokomplexy APO pro zvýšení terapeutické účinnosti protinádorové léčby. Zacílení k nádorové buňce bylo na TfR nebo efektem zvýšené propustnosti a retence. Uvolnění léčiva bylo možné změnou pH nebo fototermální aktivací, která bude nyní testována.

Background: Ferritin is a globular intracellular protein that acts as the main reservoir for iron. Malignancies are associated with increased plasma ferritin concentrations. A number of studies show that tumor cells express high levels of transferrin receptors (TfR). Increased TfR expression was observed in prostate carcinoma. Apoferritin (APO) can be used as a protein nanotransporter into which a suitable medicinal substance can be encapsulated. Nanoparticles increase the permeability of tumor cells to nanotransporters and have a photothermal effect. The aim of this study was to encapsulate doxorubicin (DOX) into APO and to modify the resulting APO/DOX with gold (AuNPs) and silver nanoparticles prepared by green synthesis (AgNPsGS). Methods: APO was characterized using 10% sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS- -PAGE) – 120 V, 60 min, 24 mM Tris, 0.2 M glycine, 3 mM SDS. DOX fluorescence (Ex 480 nm; Em 650 nm) was observed, with a typical absorption maximum at 560 nm. Electrochemical measurement was performed in Brdicka solution (three-electrode setup). AgNPsGS were prepared by green synthesis using clover (Trifolium pratense L.). Results: An electrophoretic study of APO and APO/DOX (5–100 μg/mL) was performed and the behavior of APO and APO/DOX (10 μM) as a function of pH was monitored. In an acidic environment, APO forms subunits of about 20 kDa; in an alkaline medium, it forms a globular protein of about 450 kDa. A change in APO/DOX mobility (about by 10%) was observed. A fi lm of gold nanoparticles was applied to the APO/DOX surface. APO/DOX-AuNPs were washed with ultra-pure water. pH-dependent release of DOX a was monitored. The amount of DOX analyzed was increased by up to 50%. Furthermore, an AgNPsGS-DOX complex (1 mg AgNPsGS/100 μM DOX) was generated and prepared. Subsequently, the AgNPsGS-DOX complex was encapsulated into APO. To further improve therapeutic efficacy, the APO/AgNPsGS-DOX complex was coated with an Au layer. APO/AgNPsGS-DOX/AuNPs were stable and DOX was released from the complex after physical parameters had changed. Conclusion: APO nanocomplexes were prepared and modified to increase therapeutic efficacy against tumors. Tumor cell targeting was achieved by binding to TfR and via increased tumor cell permeability and retention. Release of the drug was made possible due to a pH change and photothermal activation that will now be tested.

Although ellipticine (Elli) is an efficient anticancer agent, it exerts several adverse effects. One approach to decrease the adverse effects of drugs is their encapsulation inside a suitable nanocarrier, allowing targeted delivery to tumour tissue whereas avoiding healthy cells. We constructed a nanocarrier from apoferritin (Apo) bearing ellipticine, ApoElli, and subsequently characterized. The nanocarrier exhibits a narrow size distribution suggesting its suitability for entrapping the hydrophobic ellipticine molecule. Ellipticine was released from ApoElli into the water environment under pH 6.5, but only less than 20% was released at pH 7.4. The interaction of ApoElli with microsomal membrane particles containing cytochrome P450 (CYP) biotransformation enzymes accelerated the release of ellipticine from this nanocarrier making it possible to be transferred into this membrane system even at pH 7.4 and facilitating CYP-mediated metabolism. Reactive metabolites were formed not only from free ellipticine, but also from ApoElli, and both generated covalent DNA adducts. ApoElli was toxic in UKF-NB-4 neuroblastoma cells, but showed significantly lower cytotoxicity in non-malignant fibroblast HDFn cells. Ellipticine either free or released from ApoElli was concentrated in the nuclei of neuroblastoma cells, concentrations of which being significantly higher in nuclei of UKF-NB-4 than in HDFn cells. In HDFn the higher amounts of ellipticine were sequestrated in lysosomes. The extent of ApoElli entering the nuclei in UKF-NB-4 cells was lower than that of free ellipticine and correlated with the formation of ellipticine-derived DNA adducts. Our study indicates that the ApoElli form of ellipticine seems to be a promising tool for neuroblastoma treatment.

Herein, we describe the in vivo effects of doxorubicin (DOX) encapsulated in ubiquitous protein apoferritin (APO) and its efficiency and safety in anti-tumor treatment. APODOX is both passively (through Enhanced Permeability and Retention effect) and actively targeted to tumors through prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) via mouse antibodies conjugated to the surface of horse spleen APO. To achieve site-directed conjugation of the antibodies, a HWRGWVC heptapeptide linker was used. The prostate cancer-targeted and non-targeted nanocarriers were tested using subcutaneously implanted LNCaP cells in athymic mice models, and compared to free DOX. Prostate cancer-targeted APODOX retained the high potency of DOX in attenuation of tumors (with 55% decrease in tumor volume after 3 weeks of treatment). DOX and non-targeted APODOX treatment caused damage to liver, kidney and heart tissues. In contrast, no elevation in liver or kidney enzymes and negligible changes were revealed by histological assessment in prostate cancer-targeted APODOX-treated mice. Overall, we show that the APO nanocarrier provides an easy encapsulation protocol, reliable targeting, high therapeutic efficiency and very low off-target toxicity, and is thus a promising delivery system for translation into clinical use.

Due to many adverse effects of conventional chemotherapy, novel methods of targeting drugs to cancer cells are being investigated. Nanosize carriers are a suitable platform for this specific delivery. Herein, we evaluated the long-term stability of the naturally found protein nanocarrier apoferritin (Apo) with encapsulated doxorubicin (Dox). The encapsulation was performed using Apo's ability to disassemble reversibly into its subunits at low pH (2.7) and reassemble in neutral pH (7.2), physically entrapping drug molecules in its cavity (creating ApoDox). In this study, ApoDox was prepared in water and phosphate-buffered saline and stored for 12 weeks in various conditions (-20°C, 4°C, 20°C, and 37°C in dark, and 4°C and 20°C under ambient light). During storage, a very low amount of prematurely released drug molecules were detected (maximum of 7.5% for ApoDox prepared in PBS and 4.4% for ApoDox prepared in water). Fourier-transform infrared spectra revealed no significant differences in any of the samples after storage. Most of the ApoDox prepared in phosphate-buffered saline and ApoDox prepared in water and stored at -20°C formed very large aggregates (up to 487% of original size). Only ApoDox prepared in water and stored at 4°C showed no significant increase in size or shape. Although this storage caused slower internalization to LNCaP prostate cancer cells, ApoDox (2.5 μM of Dox) still retained its ability to inhibit completely the growth of 1.5×10(4) LNCaP cells after 72 hours. ApoDox stored at 20°C and 37°C in water was not able to deliver Dox inside the nucleus, and thus did not inhibit the growth of the LNCaP cells. Overall, our study demonstrates that ApoDox has very good stability over the course of 12 weeks when stored properly (at 4°C), and is thus suitable for use as a nanocarrier in the specific delivery of anticancer drugs to patients.

Increased oxidative stress is indisputably an important mechanism of doxorubicin side effects, especially its cardiotoxicity. To prevent impairment of non-tumorous tissue and to improve the specificity in targeting the tumor tissue, new drug nanotransporters are developed. In many cases preclinical therapeutic advantage has been shown when compared with the administration of conventional drug solution. Three forms of doxorubicin--conventional (DOX), encapsulated in liposomes (lipoDOX) and in apoferritin (apoDOX) were applied to Wistar rats. After 24 h exposition, the plasma level of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) as a marker of lipoperoxidation and tissue gene expression of thioredoxin reductase 2 (TXNRD2) and aldehyde dehydrogenase 3A1 (ALDH3A1) as an important part of antioxidative system were determined. Only conventional DOX significantly increases the level of 4-HNE; encapsulated forms on the other hand show significant decrease in plasma levels of 4-HNE in comparison with DOX. They also cause significant decrease in gene expression of ALDH3A1 and TXNRD2 in liver as a main detoxification organ, and a mild influence on the expression of these enzymes in left heart ventricle as a potential target of toxicity. Thus, 4-HNE seems to be a good potential biomarker of oxidative stress induced by various forms of doxorubicin.
