The products of the reaction between [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl and salmon sperm DNA have been purified and their structures determined. [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl binds at the N7 position of guanine for levels of fixation below 0.1 platinum per DNA base. Above this level of binding, [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl also reacts at the N7 position of adenine. 1,7-[Pt(dien)]2Ade was observed when more than 0.3 platinum per base were bound to the DNA. Platination at the N7 position of guanosine, unlike alkylation, stabilized the glycosyl linkage and did not lead to fission of the imidazole ring at high pH.

Acrolein (ACR) present in vivo and in vitro can damage proteins and DNA, linking it to various chronic diseases. In this paper, ergothioneine (EGT), abundant in edible mushrooms, has been studied for its ability to trap ACR and its reaction pathway with ACR at high temperatures using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). We synthesized the adducts (EGT-ACR-1 and EGT-ACR-2), elucidating their structure and reaction site through HRMS and nuclear magnetic resonance.

We have developed two monoclonal antibodies, CPTC-2MeSC-1 and CPTC-2MeSC-2, against itaconate and its conjugates with sulfhydryl-containing biomolecules such as cysteines. Itaconate is a dicarboxylic acid metabolite that has recently gained much interest for its anti-inflammatory properties in many biological models. We have synthesized an itaconate-cysteine conjugate ITA-Cys designed to mimic in vivo Michael adducts of itaconate.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a promising drug modality substantially expanding in both the discovery space and clinical development. Assessing the biotransformation of ADCs and is important in understanding their stability and pharmacokinetic properties. We previously reported biotransformation pathways for the anti-B7H4 topoisomerase I inhibitor ADC, AZD8205, puxitatug samrotecan, that underpin its structural stability using an intact protein liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) approach.

Inadvertent exposure to aristolochic acids (AAs) is causing chronic renal disease worldwide, with aristolochic acid I (AA-I) identified as the primary toxic agent. This study employed chemical methods to investigate the mechanisms underlying the nephrotoxicity and carcinogenicity of AA-I. Aristolochic acid II (AA-II), which has a structure similar to that of AA-I, was investigated with the same methods for comparison.
