FT- SERS Study of Adriamycin - DNA Intraction

author

Abstract:

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.

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.

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...

Formation of adriamycin--DNA adducts in vitro.

Adriamycin is known to induce the formation of adducts with DNA when reacted under in vitro transcription conditions. The factors affecting the extent of adduct formation were examined in order to establish the critical components and optimal conditions required for the reaction, and to gain insight into the nature of the DNA-adduct complex. There was a strong dependence on reaction temperature...

Electrochemical sensing of DNA-adriamycin interactions.

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 ...

Characterization of covalent adriamycin-DNA adducts.

Adriamycin is a popular antineoplastic agent whose ability to form covalent adducts with DNA has been correlated to cellular apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumor models. We have isolated and purified this adduct formed under oxido-reductive (Fenton) conditions in Tris buffer. We show by homo- and heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy that the covalent Adriamycin-DNA adduct is structurally equiva...
