Resumo
A terapia ADEPT (antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy) tem sido caracterizada, em vários estudos experimentais focalizados na destruição de células tumorais, como uma alternativa à fármacos citotóxicos sistêmicos (anti-proliferativos). Nesta técnica, o pró-fármaco é ativado por enzimas exógenas que são levadas à célula tumoral por meio de anticorpos monoclonais (Mab). Neste contexto, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) e ácido 3-indolacético (IAA) constituem um dos sistemas mais citados de enzima e pró-fármaco aplicados à destruição de células tumorais com conjugados HRP-Mab. Peroxidases são enzimas inespecíficas e várias moléculas podem ser oxidadas pela suas formas ativas HRP-l e HRP-ll no ciclo clássico da peroxidase, que é dependente de peróxido de hidrogênio ou hidroperóxidos orgânicos. Por outro lado, somente NADH, dihidroxifumarato e a auxina de planta IAA, têm sido descritos como substratos para HRP em reação independente de peróxido de hidrogênio. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar o mecanismo pelo qual compostos β-dicarbonílicos são oxidados por HRP e explorar suas aplicações. Foi demonstrado que os compostos dicarbonílicos 2,4-pentanodiona (PD) e 3-metil-2,4-pentanodiona (MePD) são eficientemente oxidados pela HRP, na ausência de peróxido, em tampão fosfato pH 7,4, consumindo oxigênio presente em solução, o que não ocorreu com outros compostos β-dicarbonílicos testados (dimedona e acetoacetato). Observou-se também, via espectrofotometria, durante a reação com PD e MePD, que a enzima nativa passou à sua forma HRP-lll, além disso, a reação produziu espécies reativas de oxigênio (ERO), detectadas por quimiluminescência dependente de luminol e fluorescência dependente de diclorofluoresceína. Também foram realizadas reações de consumo de oxigênio com outros compostos que possuem grupamento...
Antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT) has featured in several experimental studies focused on the destruction of tumor cells, as an alternative to systemic cytotoxic (antiproliferative) drugs. In this technique, the prodrug is activated by exogenous enzymes delivered to tumor cells via monoclonal antibodies (MAb). In this context, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) constitute one of the most often cited systems of enzyme and prodrug applied to destroy tumor cells with HRP – MAb conjugates. Peroxidases are unspecific enzymes and several molecules can be oxidized by the active forms HRP-I and HRP-II in the classic peroxidase cycle, which depends on hydrogen peroxide or organic hydroperoxides. On the other hand, only NADH, dihydroxyfumarate and the plant auxin IAA have been described as substrates for HRP in a reaction independent of hydrogen peroxide. The objective of this work was to study the mechanism by which β-dicarbonyl compounds are oxidized by HRP and explore possible applications. We demonstrated by measuring oxygen uptake, that the dicarbonyls PD (2,4-pentanedione) and 3-MePD (3-methyl-2,4-pentanedione) can also be oxidized by HRP in the absence of peroxide, in phosphate buffer pH 7.4, consuming the oxygen present in solution, what didn’t occur with other β-dicarbonyl compounds (dimedon and acetoacetate), under the same conditions. It was also observed, in the absorption spectrum during the reaction course with PD and 3-MePD, that the native enzyme was transformed to HRP-III; moreover, the reaction produced reactive oxidant species (ROS), detected by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence and dichlorofluorescein-fluorescence dependent. Reactions of oxygen uptake with other heme-compounds (cytochrome C, hemin, myoglobin and myeloperoxidase) had been carried to detect the especificity of the HRP in the oxidation reaction...
