I14-Hard X-ray Nanoprobe	A photodynamic and photochemotherapeutic platinum-iridium charge-transfer conjugate for anticancer therapy Huayun Shi , Oliver W. L. Carter , Fortuna Ponte , Cinzia Imberti , Miguel A. Gomez-Gonzalez , Fernando Cacho-Nerin , Paul D. Quinn , Julia E. Parker , Emilia Sicilia , Huaiyi Huang , Peter J. Sadler Angewandte Chemie International Edition 12 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202400476 Diamond Proposal Number(s): [27852] Open Access Show Abstract ▼ Abstract: The novel hetero-dinuclear complex trans,trans,trans-[PtIV(py)2(N3)2(OH)(μ-OOCCH2CH2CONHCH2-bpyMe)IrIII(ppy)2]Cl (Pt-Ir), exhibits charge transfer between the acceptor photochemotherapeutic Pt(IV) (Pt-OH) and donor photodynamic Ir(III) (Ir-NH2) fragments. It is stable in the dark, but undergoes photodecomposition more rapidly than the Pt(IV) parent complex (Pt-OH) to generate Pt(II) species, an azidyl radical and 1O2. The Ir(III)* excited state, formed after irradiation, can oxidise NADH to NAD⋅ radicals and NAD+. Pt-Ir is highly photocytotoxic towards cancer cells with a high photocytotoxicity index upon irradiation with blue light (465 nm, 4.8 mW/cm2), even with short light-exposure times (10–60 min). In contrast, the mononuclear Pt-OH and Ir-NH2 subunits and their simple mixture are much less potent. Cellular Pt accumulation was higher for Pt-Ir compared to Pt-OH. Irradiation of Pt-Ir in cancer cells damages nuclei and releases chromosomes. Synchrotron-XRF revealed ca. 4× higher levels of intracellular platinum compared to iridium in Pt-Ir treated cells under dark conditions. Luminescent Pt-Ir distributes over the whole cell and generates ROS and 1O2 within 1 h of irradiation. Iridium localises strongly in small compartments, suggestive of complex cleavage and excretion via recycling vesicles (e.g. lysosomes). The combination of PDT and PACT motifs in one molecule, provides Pt-Ir with a novel strategy for multimodal phototherapy.	Apr 2024
B24-Cryo Soft X-ray Tomography I14-Hard X-ray Nanoprobe	Single-cell chemistry of photoactivatable platinum anticancer complexes Elizabeth M. Bolitho , Carlos Sanchez-Cano , Huayun Shi , Paul D. Quinn , Maria Harkiolaki , Cinzia Imberti , Peter J. Sadler Journal Of The American Chemical Society 8 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.1c08630 Diamond Proposal Number(s): [22696, 21505, 25824] Open Access Show Abstract ▼ Abstract: The Pt(IV) prodrug trans, trans, trans-[Pt(pyridine)2(N3)2(OH)2] (Pt1) and its coumarin derivative trans, trans, trans-[Pt(pyridine)2(N3)2(OH)(coumarin-3-carboxylate)] (Pt2) are promising agents for photoactivated chemotherapy. These complexes are inert in the dark but release Pt(II) species and radicals upon visible light irradiation, resulting in photocytotoxicity toward cancer cells. Here, we have used synchrotron techniques to investigate the in-cell behavior of these prodrugs and visualize, for the first time, changes in cellular morphology and Pt localization upon treatment with and without light irradiation. We show that photoactivation of Pt2 induces remarkable cellular damage with extreme alterations to multiple cellular components, including formation of vacuoles, while also significantly increasing the cellular accumulation of Pt species compared to dark conditions. X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) measurements in cells treated with Pt2 indicate only partial reduction of the prodrug upon irradiation, highlighting that phototoxicity in cancer cells may involve not only Pt(II) photoproducts but also photoexcited Pt(IV) species.
