Human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant protein in human plasma, could be considered as a prototypic monomeric allosteric protein, since the ligand-dependent conformational adaptability of HSA spreads beyond the immediate proximity of the binding site(s). As a matter of fact, HSA is a major transport protein in the bloodstream and the regulation of the functional allosteric interrelationsh...

We have presented a self-cross-link strategy to fabricate HSA nanoparticles using a desolvation method. The nanoparticles were stabilized by intermolecular disulfide bonds while still dissolvable in reducing media. The fabrication process does not involve any toxic chemicals and hence the nanoparticles may be useful as a drug carrier.

background and aims: in this lab trial, the effect of scaffold based on human serum albumin (hsa) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (ha nps) on mouse spermatogonial cell line (scl) was investigated. materials and methods: to synthesize ha nps, calcium nitrate and diammonium phosphate at ph 13 were gently added and heated at 100 ºc for 24 hours. then serial concentrations of ha nps was separately...

The binding of a popular food supplement and well-known antioxidant, dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid (DHLA) to human serum albumin (HSA) was characterised. monitored by several spectroscopic methods together with the molecular docking approach. HSA able bind DHLA moderate affinity, 1.00?0.05?104 M-1. Spectroscopic data demonstrated that preferential site for on is IIA (Sudlow I). Both experimental an...

The aim of this study was to develop an intranasal in situ thermo-gelling meloxicam-human serum albumin (MEL-HSA) nanoparticulate formulation applying poloxamer 407 (P407), which can be administered liquid state into the nostril, and increase resistance against mucociliary clearance by sol-gel transition on nasal mucosa, as well improve drug absorption. Nanoparticle characterization showed that...

The protein binding of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs flurbiprofen, ketoprofen and etodolac with human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated using indirect chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultrafiltration techniques. S-(-)-1-(1-naphthyl)-ethylamine (S-NEA) was utilized as chiral derivatization reagent and pre-column derivatization RP-HPLC method was established for...

Novel water-soluble noncovalent adducts of the heterometallic copper subgroup complexes and human serum albumin (HSA) display strong phosphorescence, internalize into HeLa cells and can be used in time-resolved fluorescent imaging.

A colorimetric and fluorometric dual-modal supramolecular chemosensor has been fabricated by using the H- and J-aggregates of a cyanine dye, which has been successfully applied to detect human serum albumin (HSA) in urine with high specificity.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is considered to be a promising peptide for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, extremely short half-life GLP-1 limits its clinical application. Albumin-binding domain (ABD) with high affinity human serum albumin (HSA) has been used widely extension therapeutic peptides and proteins. In present study, novel receptor agonists were designed b...

Abstract Recent studies on osteosarcoma regimens have mainly focused modifying the combination of antineoplastic agents rather than enhancing therapeutic efficacy each component. Here, an albumin nanocluster (NC)‐assisted methotrexate (MTX), doxorubicin (DOX), and cisplatin (MAP) regimen with improved antitumor is presented. Human serum (HSA) decorated thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) to increase a...
