چکیده

Adriamycin, a cancerostatic anthracycline antibiotic, causes considerable death of tumour cells, together with the induction of breaks in DNA single and double strands. The interaction of this compound with DNA was investigated using an electrochemical DNA-biosensor. Adriamycin intercalation in DNA disrupts the double helix and the detection of guanine and 8-oxoguanine could mimic one possible mechanism for the in vivo adriamycin drug action.

FT- SERS Study of Adriamycin - DNA Intraction

FT-SERS (Fourier Transform Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering) of adriamycin and its complex with DNA is reported. It is shown that in agreement with previous Raman studies the interaction of adriamycin  with DNA takes place through an intercalation mechanism. The presence of a new band at 731 cm-1 suggests that ring D of adriamycin is not involved in the intercalation process.

Electrochemical Detection of in Situ Oxidative Damage to Dna

Electrochemical voltammetric in situ detection of DNA oxidative damage caused by reduced adriamycin, an antibiotic of the family of anthracyclines, intercalated into DNA was possible using a DNA-electrochemical biosensor. The results indicate that adriamycin intercalated in double helix DNA can undergo oxidation or reduction and cause oxidative damage to DNA by reacting specifically with the gu...

BINDING OF THE ANTITUMOR DRUG ADRIAMYCIN TO DNA-HISTONE COMPLEXES

Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored binding range...

Electrochemical DNA Biosensors Based on Gold Nanoparticles / Cysteamine / Poly(glutamic acid) Modified Electrode

In the present study, an electrochemical DNA sensing strategy for highly sensitivity detection of DNA hybridization was reported based on a gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) / cysteamine (Cys) / poly glutamic acid (PGA) modified electrode. A glassy electrode was first modified with the polymer film by cyclic voltammetry (CV), and then AuNPs were immobilized on the surface of PGA with Cys as a linker, ...

Electrochemistry of nanoscale DNA surface films on carbon.

A DNA electrochemical biosensor is an integrated receptor-transducer device. The most important step in the development and manufacture of a sensitive DNA-biosensor for the detection of DNA-drug interactions is the immobilization procedure of the nucleic acid probe on the transducer surface. Magnetic A/C Mode atomic force microscopy (MAC Mode AFM) images in air were used to characterize two dif...
