Accurate measurement of plasma protein binding (PPB) is of critical importance in drug discovery. Methodologies for PPB measurement continue to evolve to address the challenges of highly bound compounds. In order to generate high quality PPB data, it is crucial to not only apply state-of-the-art methods and highly sensitive and selective detectors, but also use high-quality plasma.

Current methods of cancer treatment, particularly chemotherapy, are associated with harmful side effects. For this reason, it is significant to study new substances with anticancer potential with the highest possible efficacy and the lowest possible side effects. The aim of the study was the spectroscopic analysis of the interaction between 9-amino-5-alkyl-12(H)-quino[3,4-b][1,4]benzothiazine chloride (Salt3) and main carrier proteins, such as human serum albumin (HSA), α1 acid glycoprotein (AGP), human γ globulin (HGG) and controlled normal serum (CNS).

The enantioselective binding of three proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)-omeprazole, rabeprazole, and lansoprazole-to two key plasma proteins, α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and human serum albumin (HSA), was characterized. The interactions between PPI enantiomers and proteins were investigated using a multifaceted analytical approach, including high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), fluorescence and UV spectroscopy, as well as in silico molecular docking. HPLC analysis demonstrated that all three PPIs exhibited enantioseparation on an AGP-based chiral stationary phase, suggesting stereoselective binding to AGP, while only lansoprazole showed enantioselective binding on the HSA-based column.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) exert anti-atherogenic effects, even on cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC). The HDL proteome is reportedly altered in patients with coronary artery disease.

: This study investigated whether serum alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) at diagnosis could reflect the cross-sectional activity represented by the Birmingham vasculitis activity score (BVAS) and further predict poor outcomes during follow-up in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). : This study included 70 patients with AAV. Clinical data at diagnosis, including AAV-specific indices and acute-phase reactants such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), were reviewed.
