Abstract:
:Lanthanide nanoparticles and nanorods especially their biocompatible oxide forms like cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) with therapeutic applications are used to cure neurological oxidative stresses. Thus it tempts to study their biocompatible aspects by interactions with several biologically significant molecules. In-Vitro interactions of 15-240 μM CNPs with water, Phosphate buffered saline (PBS), DMEM media, Insulin (Ins) hemoglobin (Hb) and ds-DNA at 37 °C were studied. Their physicochemical properties study by Borosil Mansingh Survismeter (BMS) showed the first order interaction with the protein-protein structure breaking behaviour of CNPs with Hb, Ins, and DNA. Zeta potential measurements of CNPs in different biological medium show a net increase in negative charge magnitude with good colloidal stability. Kb = 4 × 106 mM-1 of CNPs-DNA infer noncovalent interactions. Circular dichroism and FTIR revealed a loss of secondary conformation with increasing CNPs concentration. In-silico molecular docking depicts CNP interaction via conventional hydrogen bonding, carbon hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions at the minor groove of DNA. The study reports in-dept unfolding functional mechanism investigated by physicochemical, spectroscopic, and In-Silico approaches of protein on interactions with CNPs for safer-by-design use in medicine and pharmaceutics. Fundamentally the CeO2 in ~62% and Ce2O3 in ~38% with Ce4+ and Ce3+ oxidation potentials develop a unique case of electronic configurations with 4f05d06s0 and 4f15d06s0 electrons respectively which these studies a novel one.
