Gold Nanoclusters (AuNCs) synthesised using Human Serum Albumin (HSA) as a stable scaffold are shown to modify the major drug binding site, Sudlow site I. Upon AuNC nucleation within HSA, warfarin was observed to no longer bind to Sudlow I, remaining free in solution.

Under physiological conditions, in vitro interaction between the antiviral drug 2,7-bis[2-(diethylamino)ethoxy]-9-fluorenone dihydrochloride (Tilorone, TIL) and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated at excitation wavelength 280 nm and at different temperatures (298 K and 313 K) by fluorescence emission spectroscopy. TIL showed a strong ability to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching procedure. The binding constant is estimated as KA =7.19× 104L·mol-1 at 298 K. The enthalpy change (ΔHº) and entropy change (ΔSº) were derived to be negative values. A value of 1.63 nm for the average distance r between TIL (acceptor) and tryptophan residues of HSA (donor) was derived from the fluorescence resonance energy transfer.

Cerium (III) Chloride-induced conformational changes of human serum albumin, HSA, in phosphate buffer, 10 mM at pH 7.4 was investigated, using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), UV and fluorescence emission spectroscopic methods. The results indicate that CeCl3, Ce3+, induces irreversible denaturation of the HSA structure. The UV absorption intensity of HSA + Ce3+ shows a slight blueshift in the absorbance wavelength with increasing Ce3+ concentration. The fluorescence intensity was increased regularly and a slight redshift was observed in the emission wavelength. The HSA + Ce3+ complex quenches the fluorescence of HSA and changes the microenvironment of tryptophan residue. The emission intensity increases suggesting the loss of the tertiary structure of HSA. The results obtained from the ITC data are in agreement with the spectroscopic methods. The strong negative cooperativity of Ce3+ binding with HSA (Table 1) recovered from the extended solvation model, indicates that HSA has been denatured as a result of its interaction with Ce3+ ions.

The triptan drug such as eletriptan in combination with hydrochloride (ETP) is a 5-HT1 receptor agonist used to treat the migraine headache. Human serum albumin (HSA), the fundamental serum protein, executes various functions, that includes transporting and binding of many ligands. HSA binding interaction with ETP is elucidated from molecular docking in composite with fluorescence (emission, 3D and synchronous), UV-vis and FT-IR spectroscopy at 296, 304 and 312 K (pH = 7.40). ETP after interaction modified the HSA secondary structure and its micro-environments. Energy transfer and thermodynamic parameters were evaluated. Various quenching and binding constants were computed for formed ETP-HSA complex. The dominant interactive forces for ETP and HSA binding are hydrogen bonds join up with van der Waals extent possibly at site III (IB). The presence of Ca2+, Co2+, Na+, Mg2+ and Fe3+ ions significantly affected binding ability of ETP towards HSA. The essentialness of this investigation is beneficial in life sciences, medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical industry and clinical medicine.
